The Late Late Show - Friday May 23rd 2014

Skid X

She sounds like his Mother when she calls him Christopher.

"Hi, Mrs Dignam, Is Christy there?"

"I'll get him- Christopher, you're wanted on the phone"

grey_so_what

Catherine had a lot on her plate in her lifetime...

When addiction comes in the door, sanity walks out....

I reckon Christy is a lucky man to have her

Yeah, she sounds a bit like Maureen Potter......"Hey Christy....."

mr kr0nik

Next up Peig Sayers

terrydel

He describes what he went thru very well.

CountyHurler

Cruel, but hilarious at the same time.

BorneTobyWilde

Ryan need a makeup top up under his eyes.

tampopo

Let me know when the singer/dancer is on, I've gone to GN.

BabysCoffee

I saw that documentary about Christy in Thailand........crazy stuff

DainBramage

Christy seems cool and has had a major struggle.. but he has not once mentioned his wifes battle or how he assisted her

terrydel

Christy is a good interview imo. Eloquent, no ego.

BabysCoffee

Christy sees the good in everyone I think

CountyHurler

Edge using a bit of delay on the guitar for a change..

If he played Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, he'd still have a 300ms delay on the guitar..

sudzs

FO Bono :mad:

Aidric

I agree with him on that point. Never understood the overtly negative press for Bono.

He's a new beanie on

Mikros

Tubs was getting that clip in no matter what. Don't mind if the guest was in the middle of answering a question!

monkey9

Great couple.

LynnGrace

Tub doing his usual, barging in, questions on cue cards must be asked. Never mind the answers.

He did put himself through quite a lot of it himself though, he chose to take heroin cos he thought it'd have less consequences than booze, and cos he looked up to Keith Richards, sorry, but it's a bit woolly minded really……he did have kids and his wife had cancer, I think he's responsible for his choices, he was after all, no kid when he started using heroin

He had his demons, and yes he is responsible for his actions, but others have to be responsible for their actions too. There was so many demons before he met Catherine. Catherine has been through so much, I can't imagine how terrifying it must have been to hear that she had cervical cancer, with such a young child and Christy in the depts of addiction. No doubt Christy is so very lucky to have a lady like Catherine.

Just like in bed I've heard

Adamocovic

As I always say about Tubridy he doesn't listen to the answers he just goes by the questions that he has ready and spends his time remembering them. No flow to the interviews at all.

Skid X

He lets the wrong guests drone on forever. Like that angel woman and Lisa Fitzpatrick last week.

Welsh Megaman

Don't forget the cue to show the CLIP

Aidric

Ya they are, very genuine. That vacant look on Christy would be familiar to anyone who's had a relative going through cancer treatment and it's not easy.

She has clearly been a great support for him.

Atlantic Dawn

Good to see Billy McGuinness wasn't barred from his last appearance with Louis Walsh.

sudzs

Very Beatles-y.

amdublin

I like this song

It's like an interview at the immigration in the airport..
"How many times have you been to Ireland?"
"Do you like being in Ireland?"
"Do you have any Irish relations?"
"Let me show you a youtube clip of Ireland, and I want you to name the locations?"

Hitchens

yes, I should have said the interesting guests who are telling a good story

RayM

It's not Crazy World though, is it?

I just flicked back on and was going to ask was this a Beatles cover!

CountyHurler

A lot of Aslan's stuff is very Beatles-esque..

That fekker owes my (elderly) parents money.

Evoaps

Still has a great voice after all fair play

Harry Angstrom

Looks as if Christy has "borrowed' heavily from The Beatles for this song.

You mean 'How Can I Protect You' :pac:

DUBACC

Delighted to see Christy's illness hasnt affected his voice - still sounds great live.

Joe Duffy..

Great tune.

delw

Nice song

amdublin

Ah he looks really happy

:eek: snap..

Did you do also qualify from Bressie's Degree in Musicality And Singing From The Right Place.. I dont remember seeing you on the course?

grey_so_what

It was nice to hear Catherine's side of Christy's story...

I hope she is appreciated, she deserves it.

It's infuriating,I know we are not a nation of protesters but I think now is the time to march on RTE we have had 5 years of austerity and tubridy let's end them both

terrydel

Hes a very good singer in all fairness.

BabysCoffee

That very elderly lady in the audience looked like she wasn't going to last the full show
