Fantastic clip there... Where on earth was that item even going anyway? Listening to some guy badger random woman about her Christmas list? FFS. If I heard that on the bus, I'd be turning up the iPod.

Tubridy sounded there like every annoying younger brother that fancies one of his sister's mates...and making an absolute fool of himself.

So, so cringeworthy.

Oh that clip is so good!!!! To paraphrase Dr. Cox in Scrubs, I wanna eat it right up but it's so good that I'll save some for later. Nom nom nom.

Am I allowed to call him a tool? Or say that I think he's a tool?

For a guy who professes to read a lot, he has an extremely small mind.

Did anyone hear Tubhole read out the christmas story written by a six year old, sent in by her mother? It was a cute little story about a family and their toboggans.

Anyway he read it to Emma and in pure Alan Partridge style he highlighted each and every spelling mistake that the 6 year old had made by reading it phonetically, sometimes actually spelling out the mistakes. His only reason for reading it was to laugh at it and he then ends with his fake and patronising sincerity that was a thing of great beauty.

What a complete and utter gnome!

What a disgrace. I notice the tax-dodging dwarf "Bono" is going to help out Mrs Ryan with the morgage. I presume she will pay gift tax on it.

A couple of gems from our hero's twitter page this morning:

"Remember my poorer followers that money isn't everything. I use it exclusively for boxsets, comfort food, books, volvo's, holidays etc

My heart yearns to say; "There's an enormous salary for everyone in the audience/country" but that would be crass. "

Oh...My...God! :eek::eek::eek:

This is a joke Poly...right? Too out there even for DLB surely...

The horror of a DLB interveiw might inspire him to write a sequel to "The Green mile".
"The Green Room. Where celebrities go to die”

Didn't RTE already give the daughter a job? Doubtless Morah and the other kids will be put in as "executive producer" on a fat salary. RTE look after their own.

No.

You ARE allowed to read the charter and see exactly why not. In particular, see the "Clarification on abuse towards radio presenters" section.

Thanks,

Or a "Misery" remake where Ryan rescues JFK from a car crash, brings him home and interviews him - forever and ever and ever. "Now, John - can I call you John? - tell us again about your Irish connections..."

Fair enough. In that case, think he's incredibly boring, unbelievably smug and unbearably pompous.
