He always has to to that "Bye, bye, bye, b b b b bye, bye" nonsense finishing a phonecall. Because it's one of those things that "ALL" Irish people do. He probably got it off one of those Irish Central lists.

That, and his loud inhalation of breath after fake laughing nervously, really annoys me.

Woman renews passport for child, does not get passport in time for today, still doesn't have passport, re-books flights for Saturday costing €400 and face not being able to use those flights, but why would one re-book with no passport?
Seems stupid to do.

Its turning into Liveline Lite.

Has he taken up smoking hash since he gave up the kidney?

His voice reminds me of this:

very annoying voices,very

Claude Burgundy

Finally someone even less funny than Ray....................Fred Cooke

PeterTheNinth

"You wont believe it... ha ha ha... but on Saturday Night's Show.. ha ha ha.. we will have the chair from Game Of Thrones.. ha ha ha. ".

I bet on Saturday night he will introduce "The chair from Game Of Thrones", and it will just be a regular table chair dressed up as the chair from Game Of Thrones... And then in six months later when he gets asked about it in an interview he will say "The thing I find funny is that anybody thought that a new show, in it's second season, on RTE television, would actually get the chair from Game Of Thrones. I mean, that's what I think is funny".

this should be fun:o

Good man Baz- "they told me to speak about what was in the papers and what I did at the weekends"
"kids are ruining my life"

Ray has managed to find a stand in with an even more annoying and boring voice that Katryn. Starts, in true D'Arcy fashion, by wittering on (and on) about his kids.

humm bit of a twist on D'Arcy's approach though

SEPT 23 1989

is he getting paid for this?

PeterTheNinth

Well done RTE, I didn't think it was possible to find somebody worse than D'Arcy, but you've actually managed to do it.

Bash may not have killed his mammy but he's fairly murdering this show!!!

Baz on Kirk Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones :

"you dont see them that much any more, mind he's a recovering sex addict so she's probaly exhausted . she'd want to be drinking her vitiman C anyway"



you'd know Rays off.

the bit about stalking Ray was a laugh too.

SEPT 23 1989

at least he can press the button marked music

PauloMN

Baz is streets ahead of Ray.... streets ahead of him.

And he's already got a better grasp of the buttons.

constitutionus

your so iconic !

its like meeting the cast of dynasty or dusty bin.



i dont know whether he's taking the piss or not but its alot more fun than ray.

I CANNOT BELIEVE RTE have let Baz near a radio microphone!

The last time I heard Baz on radio (WARNING - LISTENERS MAY FIND THE FOLLOWING DISTURBING)was on 2FM - the Baz & Lucy show!

I am sure Heads of Media studies in colleges worldwide use the Baz & Lucy show as an example of HOW NOT to present radio shows.

Who's yer man? And why is this radio slot regularly saturated with people of doubtful gender? I thought Mooney was bad enough but it's been more of the same ever since.

Why doesn't yer man know the difference between a hedge shears and a strimmer? And he after giving out about his man shed..

Why is his Irish rather odd?

So many questions, so little time.

Ah I get it, it's half term!

Mr.D'Arcy is off with the family.

Happy holidays.

Pope has been on a junket to the Dyson factory and is afraid to contemplate that their products may be dodgy. We have a Dyson hoover and I figure it's completely over hyped - noisy as hell and doesn't even vacuum all that well. Compared to the cheaper one we had before that which was a real work horse.

Check the washable filter. I recently did mine after about 8 years (supposed to be done every 6 months ) and it's sucking everything up with abandon again!

It is a right noisy bastard though....

De 2-17 Ray D'Arcy Workday Calculator :

Workdays in 2-17 to date so to speak: 35
Ray Shows: 29
No Show Shows: 0
Kathryn (the other half of the other half) Shows: 5
AN Udder Shows: 1

I think the above is correct. I got the work days figure from the Liveline table
