RTE is really poor isn't it? I just flicked on the television and there is a profile of Grainne Seoige on. It's a series of profiles of RTE personalities.

FFS.

This is like what I imagine television was like in Eastern European countries in the Soviet times.

It was like a video CV for Grainne on Why She's So Great.

Liveline is essentially all about people who do not want to take responsibility for anything. Blame someone else and Joe will indulge them.

That was some load of rubbish. Seoige the Elder is on Television far too much without a 'celebration' of her mediocrity. She has Crimecall, her rubbish Sports Quiz, a Womens programme and a show on BBC1 'That's Britain'. I might have to ring Joe about it :mad:

Shows like that should be about Presenters who have retired (or are about to retire). Which at least they are doing next week, Bunny Carr is the subject.

I think the idea is to have a series on different presenters who have been with the channel. They are even doing a profile on Mark Cagney.

Thank you! Just listened to it, twas very good.

The voice of Noonan is great.

SEPT 23 1989

Will he discuss the new Padraig Nally law?

Skid

Spit it out and stop rambling :mad:

RadioRetro

And we kick off today with.... fire brigade callout charges. They'll kill people, Joe...

Zwillinge

Just turned it on...

Is it about pyromaniacs??

pc7

It really irks me when Joe asks more dumb than usual and asks stupid questions "if you call the fire brigade for your neighbour who pays" :rolleyes: You Joe you.

SEPT 23 1989

Do the fire brigade not arrive anyway if you have a serious fall?

Glebee

Your neighbours are **** Joe

europa11

This isn't just a "Dubbalin" thing, fire authoritres in many other parts of the country have been charging for call outs for years.

Joe playing up his role of hero of down-trodden man in the stree' again!

my friend

this puts paid to one of Pat's plans for his dead beat daughters 'home'

Jaysoose

Amblances?

pc7

Who is this old codger? Is he an authority on emergency services or just some old timer with a moan. :mad:

my friend

Ireland is a gas place, no one wants to pay taxes and the state should in return provide everything for free.

(and oh, + the dead beats want their mortgages wiped)

SEPT 23 1989

"Is the bill waived if the people who rang it in died in the fire Joe"

europa11

No one does scare-mongering better than our Joe.

No one.

Skid

He is taking a long time to explain that the sooner a Fire Engine gets to you, the better.

Big Daddy Cool

so old people are very hesitent to ring the fire brigade because of the cost, yet when they get a letter about tax, they're up in arms and will ring everybody who will listen, tax or death yep they've got their priorities right.

arent we lucky Joe's old pal Gerry Ryans friend (Harry 'free ads on RTE' Crosbie) never got round to building his tower..

imagine the bill for that one...

Stripey Cat

Why are they called Fire Engines?

Why not just fire trucks or something?

europa11

"My God!"...."Dear God!"..."God forbid!!"

The Almighty isn't getting much rest today from Uncle Joe.

Skid

Farrell Grant Sparks did the report on the Fire brigade.

Hee hee
