He has been on Irish TV alot recently, he was on with Tubs a few months back. He is probably the most interesting guest on the show tonight but I think we have heard it all before.

JonathanAnon

Yeah he was Mrs D.. Not sure what extra we have to learn from him...

And why does Miriam always look like she's arrived at a surpise party thrown for her..?

Lady Chatterton

Just googled Mat Fraser there, he seems like an interesting man who hasn't let his disability hold him back. He might be an interesting guest

I'd say Alastair Campbell would make a very interesting dinner guest. He is an unusual character but I must admit there is something about him I find very intriguing.

Alastair Campbell is the inspiration for the magnificent Malcolm Tucker from "In The Thick of It".

They really should have a policy of not booking anyone who was on The Late Late Show or Brendan O'Connor in the previous year for Miriam's Show.

Mat Fraser could be interesting, he has had an interesting and varied life.

The rest of the line up is weak.

Given that Miriam actually "does" politics it might be a bit more interesting than Tubbs or the Corkonian.

I haven't seen this show myself but my husband loved it.

I'm not a fan of Miriam, her guests are so bad. who is this one she has on now, what interest is she to us.

Hi everyone:)

She was on the Hills, was expecting more of an airhead but seems fairly down to earth.

what age group watches the hills? I would have thought not the audience that is watching miriam.

hondasam

how much did it cost to bring her to Ireland and on the show?

I agree, bit of an odd booking, although she seemed pleasant enough.

Wonder how the conversation in the Green Room went between Whitney and Alistair Campbell,

Dcully

Just saw Mirian coming on there and couldnt help notice a turn in one of her eyes, never noticed that before then again i never really watch her show.
Thought it might be just me but the wife noticed too.
No big deal ofcourse, just never noticed before

Was probably part contributed by Kildare Village.

Brendan Gleeson as Harry Potter would be interesting.

"Yoor fookin dead Voldermort"

hondasam

Miriam is over rated IMO, if it wasn't for her husband she probably would not have this show.

She was all over TV3 yesterday. They probably went halves with RTE

I don't agree, to be honest.

She's a good broadcaster, always does a good show with what she's given, although she's much better doing Current Affairs.

amdublin

Two min conversation with Whitney Port was more Expose than rte big sat night show.

Shut up Eddie Hobbs!!!!!! :mad:

IMO she is a female version of Pat Kenny. Pat got a lot of stick while he was presenting the LLS because he found light entertainment a bit of a challenge but he was great at everything else, Tubs can't even get the basics right.

Let's not get carried away, Sam:)

Harry Angstrom

I think she tries to overcompensate from her Primetime persona when she's fronting this show. Somebody should have a word in her ear, tell her to stop being so nicey-nice.

Still, she's a fine looking woman for somebody in her 50's after having 8 kids :eek:

Stall the digger Harry! she was 50 in January, she is not in her 50's She is a beautiful looking woman and to be fair she seems to be a very genuine person as well.

beagle001

That's why I cannot watch rte anymore,useless presenters,mundane guests and the same theme rehashed week after week,how they could take a lesson from Graham Norton or the BBC absolutely streets ahead on content and entertainment value.

Whitney Port designed a bag which is being sold at the kildare outlet village and the procedes are going to barretstown and in short its a very worthy cause, Eddie hobbs rules full stop! And the girl thats currently on sounds interesting and bringing epilepsy to the fore !

Ah Mrs D, you're splitting hairs. She's not in her 40's anymore so therefore she has to be in her 50's.
Anyway, it makes her look even more impressive to think that she's now a quinquagenarian

Harry, You have a lot to learn about women and their age

Everytime this guy appears on Irish TV he gets an easy ride. They seem to forget he was Tony's right-hand man during the invasion of Iraq. :rolleyes:
