    Who wants to watch this sh*te on a Saturday night.. Lasted about 40 seconds.


    Utter misery.

    What the fook is RTE up to. Every program on radio and TV these days is full of death and illness and general misery.
    I've had my fill of it. I'm outta here.:mad:

    This is not entertainment :(

    I think this is one of the worst segments I've seen on TV in quite a while. It has really annoyed me for some reason.

    It is tough for them, no doubt, but the family seem to be having a ball out there, they have the internet to keep in contact daily, and there are thousands and thousands of families in the same or worse situation. Unreal.

    Did they just hold auditions for the most miserable story of the week to start the show? Ffs. I really hope they didn't get paid for this.

    Do they fancy Vegas instead?






    I'm a baaaaaaad Megaman.

    Fook Australia, why don't the kids just move to canada or the UK...I spent time in Oz and I don't care what anyone says its not all its cracked up to be. 38k for a visa is extortionate.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    I pay more attention to the Aldi Super 6 ad than anything else in the break.

    Carrots and Parsnips again this week! I might even splash out on some Oranges.

    As soon as the parents arrive in Australia, all of their kids will up and move to Canada, probably. Maybe then they'll get the message.

    rte.ie blocks the ads, but I'm guessing you mean the one where their clothes suddenly fly away to reveal the orange aprons?

    If so, yeah it is annoying :mad:

    That's purportedly Brian Hayes on the poster... I'm not sure who the other chap on the right (with the distinctly less luminous teeth) is..

    Jeffrey lays on the charm a bit thick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 118 ✭✭wintersolstice


    I think that it is kind of pathetic that they can't live their lives without their children.they could have a great time for themselves here and take trips to Australia.I think they are daft to be burning their bridges here.I hope Australia lives up to their expectations


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,321 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Neil Diamond's looking well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,657 ✭✭✭CountyHurler


    "I love being in Ireland, they're always so warm and friendly"...

    Yeah Jeffrey, that's because we love our politicians to be crooked here.

    He must just select the teeth from a menu and they paste them on to the photo, he went for the Hollywood special.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,585 ✭✭✭✭Lady Chatterton


    The lines on Jeffrey's forehead look like a spider's web.......... okay, I'm a bit bored :o

    He sounds like a male version of Ann Widdecombe.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 35,514 ✭✭✭✭efb


    He's very loud


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,374 ✭✭✭twirlagig


    Jeez - Brendan has hands like shovels! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    Jeffrey is a convicted perjurer.

    He also invented a fake degree so he could get into a Masters in Cambridge.

    But I enjoyed First among Equals and Kane and Abel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,585 ✭✭✭✭Lady Chatterton

    Hook, Finucane, Kenny and Murray have all had him on their radio shows in recent times.

    Much more noticeable now with his skinniness!

    I wish Brendan would ask him about Monica Coughlan, but I assume this is just another plamasing session for this former jailbird.

    What would you write about Lisha? :)

    Richard Bacon says Jeffrey came on his Radio show and was lovely, couldn't be nicer.

    He met him a week later at a Party and he blanked him completely. Not to be trusted.

    I'm sorry, this show is awful crap recently.

    If this was on the Late Late Show there would be angry mobs outside RTE.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,657 ✭✭✭CountyHurler


    This man makes Bill Humble seem humble and retiring..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,585 ✭✭✭✭Lady Chatterton


    Apart from the spider's web forehead he is looking pretty well for 74.
