I'll take that as a resounding NO.

I actually like her. Very much her own person in contrast to the manufactured ones gone before.

On her neck. Make us a cup there....

Kerry rose on now. Can she make home advantage count? My immediate impression is no, no she can not.

grey_so_what

This one is catching flys with her mouth....

Lady Chatterton

The Kerry Rose and the Philly Rose must have been separated at birth.

Thom Merrilin

She doesn't think much of herself eh..

EB_2013

She was quirky and good fun. Makes a change from some of those show off contestants.

grey_so_what

Has there been a redhead on at all so far??.....

I though she was going to say she had a three year old!!

I nearly passed out with the shock......(not really!)

Harry Angstrom

I thought she was going to say she has a little three year old child. Instant disqualification there.

Lady Chatterton

Harry, don't let the Vinny bus leave without me, I don't think I can listen to too much more of this Kerry wan.

I stand by my assertions. And why do they train them to recite poetry about being from Kerry?

Inspector Coptoor

Are they all teachers or doctors?

Reading out a poem from a card, cat even recite it off by heart.

Serious lack of talent when they resort to that sh1t€

No, the Northside Rose had three kids by different fathers and a heroin addiction... As her party piece she showed Diathí how to find a vein..

I am sorry for insulting your dog and my post was an attempt at passing off the previous insult as one aimed at the rose herself and not the dog.

What's your dogs name? Can it recite poetry?

Lol it's ok, I am just shocked that there are people out there who don't like Bichon Frise dogs :-D but then I suppose I'm biased... ;-)

Just saw the marriage proposal, sweet mother of fcuk what was your man at, totes took her moment in the spotlight away, if she has any chance (not a hope) of winning it's gone now. Your man was a right dope!!!

The Rose of Tralee is basically a celebration of middle-class Ireland and the girls on the show certainly do not live in the same Ireland or on the same planet as most of the rest of us. They all come from very privileged, well-heeled backgrounds, otherwise they would not be chosen. I have never seen an ordinary working-class girl interviewed on the show. I feel that the whole thing is outdated, very predictable and cheesy.

Yes, Daithi's beard looks awful. It looks like a worn out second-hand toilet brush!
