A LOT MORE SENSE THAN OUR CLOWNS IN GOVERNMENT

Not very hard though in fairness

Brown is still an MP.

I bet he actually attends, but I don't know if he can match Bertie, and attend 100 times exactly in 59 days.

Just wanted to say I love this thread every week.. I also love Ryan and think he does a great job.. so not everyone on here is on the thread to complain about Ryan. Each to their own opinion I say!

I loved this thread too, but lately it has turned into a rant, and its not half as funny as it used to be! It gets boring and tedious to see the same sort of comments over and over again, every week.
I used to laugh out loud at some of the comments here about the guests, but there arent so many of those lately.

Yes...Yes..interruption..sure..yes..yes.yes.sure..another interruption..yes..sure..another interruption..interruption..etc.
DLB's recipe for an 'incisive' political interview.
And why does he seem to treating him in a condescending manner? Does he think he isn't in the same class as his buddy Tony and himself.

Nail on the head. Tubridy's major flaw is he can't roll with the punches. No flow in the man, nothing natural about him.

Thanks. I actually meant to say that he doesn't listen to the answer to the question that he has just asked

Well it quickly became Robbie's dream after his last couple of albums flopped.

That is actually a tabloid myth the public lap up. Ironically it is TT that have benefited on an international level to Robbie rejoining. For example their last album got to #68 in Denmark and this one was #4 - in Italy their last was #58 and this one was #3. This pattern is repeated throughout Europe and it is their first European #1 album overall on the Euro Billboard Chart. They are also playing massive stadiums in those very countries where their last album bombed. It is quite clearly all down to Robbie who is the biggest selling music act of the century in Europe. And in terms of last albums flopping - facts will indicate that ovewrall globally his last album (09) outsold TT 08 album by quite a large amount. The world begins and ends with the UK and Ireland according to our tabloids but there is a reason Robbie is worth €150M quid and the others are only worst 9 or 10 - and it's about a global audience. Afterall he has sold about 40M more albums than TT. There is quite literally no comparson on an overall basis even when Robbie's career after it's peak is compared with TT's at their peak.

As for Gary writing - a talented writer no doubt but on the Flood he wrote the music - Robbie wrote the lyrics and melody. Gary said so himself.

The interview was crap as usual with Tubs. Was it just me or was the same question asked in about 10 different ways over about 20 mintues - ie. contrasting the past with the present. And the Irish connect was Joe Dolan.:eek: Bet Tubs was thrilled to discover that.

We're a great country.

UP IRELAND!!!!

Gordon Brown, sound, unpretentious meet Ryan "Dainty" Tubridy.

This could be Tubridy's best interview of this season... guest was very comfortable, asked tough questions, interesting interview... (which I wasnt expecting with Gordon Brown)... aside from aligning FF with labour on the "international crisis" thing..

Irish Volunteer Of The Year... ????? Was she in the GPO or Boland's Mills??

hmmm

I was just watching the Tailor of Panama, flick back here because you're all talking about Gordon Brown and my god he has changed - he didn't use wear glasses.

What is the size of Tubbers' Sclong?
Thick and sweet, very long.
Tubbers licked Aoibhinn's Rosebud,
And inserted himself as far as he could.

Ah there's no call for this type of smut.

DLB is so poor because he doesn't listen to the question he has just asked. He is all locked and loaded and ready to ask the next question. A bit like starchy Pat Kenny's style

Yeah he just rattles out the questions machine-gun style without waiting for the answer, frustrating to watch.

hmmm

OMG it's the weekly cancer story. Well done Tubs.

Tubs reminds me of the uncool kid in the class who always dressed and behaved 20 years older than everyone else.

Yes, yes, i got that.

He doesn't listen, so if the original answer touches upon the next question, he doesn't adapt to that, he just ploughs ahead with his pre-written question.

Granted, that criticism might not apply to his interview with Brown, i'm just thinking of his interviewing style in general.

Koloman

He "loves" meeting people like her. You don't say.

Thought it went smoothly myself. Brown suites Tubs 'Style' very well. Tubs sees himself as a bit of an intellect so Brown is right up his alley. Now put somebody unpredictable that will stray from the 'script' in front of him and we see the real sh1te we see week in week out.

You are wrong there I'm afraid, certainly regarding Gary Barlow

As for songwriting which it really is all about imo, Barlow wins hands down

That would mean that Tubs was in his 50's going to school.
