    "The Timothy Dalton one starts in North Korea"


    No, The Living Daylights started off in Gibraltar, and License to Kill started off in the Florida Keys.

    Die Another Day with Pierce Brosnan started off in North Korea.

    he asks him - "so what about religion".

    None, Joe, none - they revere Kim Jong Il like a god.

    "So they are brainwashed ??!" - says Joe.

    Yes Joe - in the same way Catholicism has brainwashed you.

    I'll just leave this here....

    I hope Joe's brother releases a book to retort what Joe said about him in "Just Joe"...

    He could call it "Just a load of old b*ll*x"

    Just to defend myself, I was the girl in North Korea. I was just giving information from what I experienced and what I was informed from my tour guide. I never claimed to be an expert. I was laughing at a funny story. I know people are starving there and that its a terrible situation for all the citizens of that country. I have a picture here of how far away I was from the public of the country. This is why i said they were far away and small. It is a fact that they are smaller than south koreans I though this was also an interesting fact. The three in the front of the photo are in my group. The others are the North Koreans.59023397a9515876541l.jpg

    Mazdaghd, this is a very irreverent thread, so please don't take it personally or too seriously!! Nothing or nobody is sacred here!

    And you must admit, the 'small and faraway' bit had immediate connotations of Father Ted, however true it was (as in your photo).

    And the remark about laughing at a funny anecdote when people are starving - I can just picture some self-important little uniform jumping to direct a single car across eererily empty wide streets and junctions! Haha! It is funny, godammit. We just like being contrary! Good for you for braving the lions' dens - as in Lavelahnn and the gallery here!

    (This has to be my favourite thread on all Boards.)

    I never claimed to be an expert.

    That's the thing that I think people were decrying.

    You're not an expert, and have ony been to North Korea once, so what on earth possessed them to put you on national radio to talk about this subject?

    Ha right I think I get this thread now. People are ripping the piss out of live line not the guest. :)
    I totally agree some1 who studied the country would have been better to talk on the subject.

    Fair enough!

    While we have you here, did they ring you, or did you ring them?

    They rang me. They had me on file from before. That guy Martin, was that his name he was on some show with me before talking on the subject. They must have had us both on file. We must be on some 2fm database tagged under North Korea or something of the like.

    The good news is it seems Joes book is now available in your local bargain basement, maybe by the time the cold snap hits it'll be down to €1 and will make handy firelighters.

    So much for the callers dictating the show's content. This is yet another example of Joe indulging his own personal idiosyncrasies today. It makes me even more suspicious that those people who called the show last week to voice their anger at the property tax and possibly organise a mass non-payment were given very short shrift by the Liveline production team, under orders from Joe "the socialist" Duffy.

    Hey, did anybody notice that Duffy was very reluctant to directly criticise Kim Jong Il.. And then it hit me.. They are actually kindred spirits

    Welcome to the way things are done by Liveline Mazdaghd.

    Most of us regulars here on this tread are accused of stirring the sh1t by our reactions to what we listen to around lunchtime every day.

    But then, no other programme will gauge the feedback of on a daily basis like Liveline does. This thread is proof of that.

    It is evident that the production team, research team and presentation team (esp Joe) on Liveline have their own agendas.

    This would appear obvious by the way you told us how his team contacted you rather than the other way round.

    Most of the people on this thread love Joe. (Just see the comments when he's not there).

    Liveline wouldn't be the same without him. But he knows, and all of us here know that anyone paid over €400,000 from you and me should be open to any form of scrutiny.
