What an amazing life she's leading - Cannes, Hollywood............ then back to Dublin to do an ad for the Littlewood's Catalogue......

ThisRegard · 09-10-2013 11:35am

Fair play to her I say, I always found her likeable and wish her the best of luck.

I used to like her on that fasion show she did on RTE a few years ago but I do wish she'd cease exagerrating her Hollywood success ... if she was that successful we'd have heard.

ThisRegard · 09-10-2013 11:39am

It's more sections of the media hyping her up as opposed to her, as evident by Pats introduction.

JonathanAnon · 09-10-2013 11:39am

She's gorgeous but I think she's left it too late.

DellyBelly · 09-10-2013 11:40am

She a bit of alright isn't she!!!!

That's it - she might well get her break yet (and good luck to her) but the media PR would have you believe all of Hollywood was fighting over since from the day she arrived.

Ah, she can do a fair bit of hyping all by herself. The last time she was on TV, she was talking about a "great" new film she was in... that went straight to DVD. I reckon she should get used to acting in films that will go straight to DVD.

She has yeah, 36 for a female actor in Hollywood ??

Even the successful ones get shelved by then ..

But think of the advantages.. Tubridy can bring her on the Late Late next season and she can tell us how many sugars Anne Hathaway has in her tea.

Callan57 · 09-10-2013 12:03pm

I think she has been given more exposure on Boards this morning that she ever got (or will get) in Hollywood.

Guess what part of Dublin 4 Caroline Morahan is from?

Answer: Drogheda

Seriously love, what happened your accent?

JonathanAnon · 09-10-2013 12:26pm

This was part of one of the acclaimed roles that she played..

I thought that whole Anglo: The Musical was a load of nonsense anyway. Opportunistic and in bad taste. Glowing reviews by all of the writer's pals in the media, none of whom seemed to be courageous enough to go against the flow by writing a bad review. Kind of ironic when you think of the subject they were covering.

Which one is Caroline Morahan?

Incredible begrudgery there folks.

Don't you have to be successful for someone to begrudge you though?

Was Pat Kenny talking about concrete? Did I imagine that?

mike65 · 09-10-2013 1:57pm

He was but the issue was competition rather than dusty grey stuff!

Callan57 · 09-10-2013 11:38pm

Just listening to it back & that Caroline Morahan interview is downright embarrassing - the level of delusion is incredible

artful_codger · 10-10-2013 11:00am

Raheen....big Communion parties...Parents kicking up a fuss... I wouldn't be surprised if it's a certain minority who are behind this story.

reg114 · 11-10-2013 9:10am

I think Pat has a sense of freedom about him that he didnt have before on rte. No longer institutionalised ?

ButtersSuki · 11-10-2013 9:25am

I was listening to the Caroline Morahan interview the other day and forgot to check the thread. It was cringeworthy. Question for Pat's regulars from the RTE days - did he ever interview Z listers like that on RTE Radio (I'll ignore TLLS as we'd be here all day!)?

Happyman42 · 11-10-2013 9:30am

How is he doing in the ratings? Haven't bothered tuning into him yet, he's just on a long holiday to me.

JonathanAnon · 11-10-2013 10:11am

They should be called the People Who Dont Want To Pay Their Mortgages group... "We're doing it on behalf of everybody"... They are trying to pass their mortgages on to the taxpayers, how is that working on behalf of "everybody"..If the house prices had gone up, she wouldnt care about the quality or legitimacy of the mortgage.

Roger_007 · 11-10-2013 10:31am

Stephen Donnelly is talking through the wrong orifice as usual.:eek:

That figure about public sector workers taking 2.5 times the sick leave in HP, even STILL after all the supposed reforms, is absolutely astonishing.

artful_codger · 11-10-2013 10:53am

Ah don't tell Pat there's an island out there with no owner!

Lapin · 11-10-2013 11:36am

Does Newstalk operate at a lower volume to RTÉ and other stations?

I'm on a bus at the moment and was listening to Seán O'Rourke through headphones earlier but switched over to Pat Kenny during the music bit.

Its almost impossible to hear anything Kenny is saying and even more difficult to hear his guests, (especially those on the phone) despite me having the volume up full blast.

I tried a few other stations including 2FM, Today FM and Galway Bay and have no problem hearing them.

Only Newstalk seems to sound like the volume is down to 2.

JonathanAnon · 11-10-2013 11:45am

Yeah there's definitely a volume difference, Lapin.. I have a TV/radio tuner card on my PC and when I change from RTE Radio One to Newstalk I notice a sudden volume drop. I've also the added pain that the transformer in my new monitor seems to interfere with the FM signal for Newstalk.. Fortunately if I turn off the monitor the FM signal is perfect, but I have found that having the monitor switched off can affect productivity.

It was like that here in the SE for a while but seems to have gone back to normal.
