As FP's official spokesperson/agent/PA, I can confirm it was him. FP won't be answering any further questions at the moment.

Liked and shared, Hun. xxx. lol.

If this gains momentum it might make the Ray Darcy show tomorrow, knowing his love for all things "viral". Or better still, LAHVELINE, the holy grail.

I am indeed a male, a male with a weakness for shoddily made Irish drama.

Can the next petition be on behalf of the Irish Accountants and Maths teachers Benevolant Society to please explain Paul's finances.

Fresh why do I fear there will be some spin on the petition that it shows thousands of people love KT & want her free when really I don't think anyone would care if she was shipped off to the Galapogos!

PS. Can you edit it to include "Deport Zoe back to Ireland" please

Or leave Zoe in the Galapagos Islands and bring back a Giant Tortoise instead.

signed the petition. Perhaps she will get lost in Montrose when RTE sell all the land they are selling and someone will discover her 10 years later still alive.

I just hope RTE don't take this as approval for the hames they've made of the Katy storyline. Last night's scenes where Ciaran was screaming at her and threatening her were almost identical to ones way back in early November, meaning the storyline has scarcely moved on one bit in four to five months.

RTE are loving this. They7 will spin it to emphasise how passionate their viewers are about characters and how realistic they are in portraying real life by not rushing plots. They will, as they have been for months, promise a huge payoff that fans will love (a siege) and will say how well researched the story is. They will sh1t talk about how good the actors are in portraying their characters for so long etc etc.................

Ok how realistic is the storyline? is there any girl who has been kidnapped for 10 months by a family "friend" and kept in a cell in a garage in Ireland in the last 20 to 30 years? maybe in America perhaps but not Ireland. of course there are the missing women who have not been found but they are hardly stretching that storyline to infer that this plot reflects on those poor missing women?

On the subject of petitions, wouldn't it be great if someone started a petition to get Tubridy off television for good

It is not realistic at all. Thats the point.

Anyway, here is a few famous people signing The Petition:

The Ram and the lovely Dearbhla





Niamh



Charlitttttttttt and Posh Charles



Gripey




Even Maeve is back to sign it!



Leo coaxes a young one off the street to sign it as his hands are too big for the keypads



The thoughts of such a petition even get unprecedented smiles from moody fkers like Sourpuss and Caddle



Sasha and Lycra Laura back FP's Petition



Deegan trys to persuade Oisin to help the cause



Finally, huge coup as Trump abandons The Wall to get behind The Petition

Anyone hear the DG of RTE on Sean O'Rourke this morning. RTE are losing over €20 million a year. I'm not surprised considering the levels of pay that the FC writers are on. They are totally fecked if they have someone of that calibre doing the books at RTE. They can't even add Don Paulionin's money up correctly, how in hell are they supposed to balance the books of a major organisation.

I think they might as well stretch it out to the one year mark, release her on the one year anniversary.

That could be the intention in fact, release her on the exact one year anniversary.
