I see they are trouble for tonight's show.
They were going to broadcast it from outside the Matter Hospital but might not be now. Link below,

Gave up on this show after the infamous mocks, can we expect Claire to dawn on a paramedic outfit and assume the role. Just a ghastly idea for a show, turning into a Jeremy Kyle wannabe.

Don't watch this rubbish anymore its a disgrace of a show she really has not a clue , I nip in and out of the late late which is also gone downhill in my opinion I cant understand how Renault is sticking with the late late as the add says great entertainment which its not. How can Graham and Jonathan Ross make lively shows with out a mention of Covid RTE is obsessed with it if ever there was a need for good fun weekend entertainment now is the time.

The definition of a Twitter mob.

If the hospital is ok with it then so am I.

That's where the front line is.

"Arranged with the full cooperation of the Mater Hospital"

I'm just guessing that the hospital/HSE think it might be another way to wake (some) people up to how serious things are, but methinks they chose the wrong person/show to do this with. All the potential to turn into an exploitative, tacky, embarrassing and cringe inducing show to watch through your fingers...nothing new there then.

Oops!

The full works will be put on tonight....

Full steam ahead it seems

Have they got a soundtrack in the background of a ventilator beeping?

Don’t know what to make of this....bit bizarre

Poor nurses have to stand out in the cold and yap to Byrne.
Stupid ,

So let me get this straight we now have so many ventilators we can have one sitting in the car park of a hospital of a Monday evening as a prop for a tv show?

I think this is spot on. People need to wake up and realise that they will end up in hospital if they keep going out and about. Maybe broadcasting from outside a hospital will help firm that image on people's minds.

They hiss and suck. Spent 10 weeks by somebody's bedside on one, who was fully conscious as they took him off sedation. Took some morale boosting but outcome was a lung transplant that gave well over 20 year's good life.

Maybe it’s a fake mock-up............like everything else on this show?

That's terrible having a precious ventilator outdoors in windswept rain even if under some shelter.

They should have had this on straight after the Nine O'Clock News.

Presumably it's a defunct one?

Probably worth it if the idea is to make more people comply. 1 ventilator out of option for a couple of hours to prevent a lot of people spreading the disease. Might be worth it. I think they have needed to do this for ages. As someone anti lockdowns it's useful to see.

It's going to be some laugh when that tent takes off.

Exactly. If you don't get the point of this show you're probably a bit thick.

Cheers for venting your displeasure.

I used to watch my friend on the ventilator in 1993 whilst the nurses would take a short break. Seriously.

2 security guards in the background glued to each other. clowns.

Lundstram

Very happy to hear him say he hates face masks (horrendous things) and there's an end in sight. Very reassuring.

I'm presuming, like airplanes, they need to be taken out of service for maintenance. I would imagine this one is probably on its way to maintenance. I think in reality ventilators are not as "high tech" as the staff managing them, and the operation of them is more yet dependant on training than pure availability of the machines.

This is putting the fear of Tony in to me.

My wife was on a ventilator in Mater ICU a couple of years back, tube came loose when nurse was on her break - I had to run out of the cubicle and grab a passing doctor to replace the tube.

Are they bringing out the dummy?

A quick TikTok video of someone at deaths door getting hooked up to a vintalator might have more hope of appealing to the youth/youthettes.
