If the Savage Eye is accurate then Joe would be very interested in film of dwarves.

Edit:They're called Unicorn films! LOL

JM Skipton

the only one with a "hot bulb" at the moment is Joe, from talking about this sh*te

Joe:"Thanks for the health warning"

Lets hope Joe is a bit more sensitive with this caller than he was with Bernadette..

I'm not being smart, but why would anyone want an Irish death cert?

EDIT: Ah I get it, the death isn't recorded here then.

If I died on a plane in the middle of the atlantic where would my death be registered? Just wondering ......

If you want to close bank accounts and things when a person dies, they want a copy of the death cert. If there isn't one, then how do these accounts get closed? Have pensions been paid into bank accounts for people who died abroad for the past 30 years?

Instead of trying to get tears out of people and talking about the rare old times, Joe could serve the public and establish these things.

Wherever the plane was registered?
Actually, thinking further; if the plane landed in NY with a stiff on board, the NY authorities would have to swing into action and that, by default, becomes an American problem.

That is usually the nationality of the plane you are on, AFAIK.

Well all these people have death certs from the country where they actually died so should be no problem getting accounts etc. closed.

Ah I had assumed that you could use the death cert that had been issued in another country to close accounts etc..

Thanks for showing me the real issue.

As I said if the death cert is in Spanish?

If there is money owed on the account and the bank tries to verify that the person has died by contacting the registrar and the registrar says that according to their records the person is still alive?

There's no problem closing a bank account with a foreign death certificate, you just get it notarised. I suspect the reason the people on the show want their loved one's deaths recorded by the Irish state is for less practical reasons and that is for reasons of posterity. It would upset me greatly if I had a child who died abroad and no record of it was kept in Ireland, even for the seemingly stupid reason that someone researching the family tree in years to come might see that the child was born, but not know how, when or where they died. That's certainly the impression I got from the callers. It might seem trivial to some, but I can understand why someone would want to record it, and can't understand why the state would refuse to do so, if that's what the next of kins want.

Joe finally gets his revenge for getting lashed out of it over nearly causing a run on the banks

deaths in foreign lands

young GAA players injurys

europa11

Joe patting himself on the back today, as he hits back at "getting it in the neck" (according to his promo) for almost causing a bank run in 2008.

De-Anglo tapes to dominate proceedings according to the great man...........so we'll probably end up with model trains and fibre grade job refusals again.

I can see him milking this for the week

I had a tape once. It often got tangled. I used to spend ages pulling them out and winding them back in with a pencil. I didn't have money for new tapes and my mother, god rest her soul hadn't enough money to fix the gramophone for the records, which had been the rage the before the tapes. I was a bit of a rebel Joe, I used to tape the new Christy deBurgh song off the radio. They were simpler times joe, you'd get in trouble for that now. I once snuck out to a dana concert.....

For once he might actually discuss something current in the news. Be grateful it's very rare! (Unless it involves fire engines or model trains)

JonathanAnon

That's some serious stuff in the tapes that the Irish Independent got... So no doubt this will mean that Joe Duffy will have no choice but to discuss....

artful_codger

There'll be big job losses in O2 Ireland, no Haddington Road for them.
