Shut up Ray. Just shut up.

What did he say Harry, I missed the start. The interview with Paddy Joe Hill was amazing though, in spite of Ray. I'd always thought that he'd been extremely bitter towards the four (of the six) that signed confessions, as it gave his protest of innocence less credence. Apparently now he only blames the brits though

He was going on about Tom and lego and how bad gambling is.

Peter, did you ever read his book. I'm trying to find it here but I think I gave it to my brother. He went into great detail about all that hapened before, during and after the jail term.

Oh dear god, he's sooo pious.

No I tell you what got me thinking about the Birmingham Six recently. I was looking at questions about the Oklahoma Bombing, and noticed they cited the Manchester Bombing as the closest comparison as to what should have happened (an ammonium nitrate bomb in a truck parked outside a building).. then I noticed a link to this in the youtube sidebar.

Who Bombed Birmingham?

Then when I'd finished this, there was this interview with Paddy Joe Hill.

He's a tough, tough man.

Cheers. I'll have a look later.

Ray had wine and crisps while watching Primetime?? :eek:

He'll be telling us next that he had a sneaky bet on Trap 5 in the 9.45pm at Monmore with his Paddy Power account :eek: :eek:

constitutionus

oh FFS.

Moncreiff was on this bleeding period thing too.

fuk off.

BarryD

Was that a product placement thingy re wedding presents and Nutribullet blenders? Thinly disguised? Hmm.

Harry Angstrom

I can't wait for Ray to be handing over to Cheltenham coverage in two week's time. He'll probably preface his handover by issuing a stern gambling warning :rolleyes:

LOL, he's been building a fence to trip over alright

Good piece of public service broadcasting re synthetic playing surfaces and old car tyres.

He managed to mention his older brother Joe, his 5 sisters as well. I guess it beats hearing about Jenny and his daughter Kate!

Kids using it as a surface in a creche is the most worrying thing about it, should be stopped until there's proof either way.

Good man Ray Go for the tears. Joe would be proud of you.

F*ck up on the buttons to finish off.

No way Harry, he'll do what he did the last time he felt that somebody was infringing on his show. Complain to RTE management and get them moved.

I dont think we will hear Cheltenham on the show this year. So when are rte going to stand up to him. Or else ray will be on another holiday for the week.

The fridge...

A really really tacky fridge

Mess of an interview by D'Arcy there. He did the usual with his "And then you did this and then you did that", and the interviewee didnt know whether this was a question or whether he was making statements.

Agreed, staccato method of asking questions, no rhythm, no natural thread to follow.

Jumping all over the place, and no real understanding of events.

As I said before, out of his depth.

Kate, or Kaaaaaayyyyyyt as he pronounces it, hasn't had a mention in a while. She must have blotted her copybook, by not eating the porridge or something.

BarryD

You'd think the shows researchers might do just a little homework - Kilkenny is a city you muppets, because a charter was granted to it in 1609.

Give Francis his own radio show

Brendan Bendar

This fella seems a bit high on his heels.

BarryD

Jaysus, you'd want to be paid to go on holidays with yer man, not paying him. Odd though, he's looking for a dozen people who haven't traveled before but which have passports!

Born and brought up in England, no wonder the good rector doesn't quite understand the ins and outs of the Tricolour..
