Just watching on +1.

Absolutely love normal Don't Go.

Just love this too. Wow!

Just saw an ad for the RTE player.

Surprised it wasn't interrupted by an ad for 3 mobile, which was itself interrupted by the same ad for 3 mobile.

That, over and over. Is what stopped me watching Frasier. So thanks for that.

It's the new normal Don't Go.

I liked it too.

So 3 more weeks of the season, that's great. It's one of the things that keep you going in covid lockdown!

Michael Stipe can get away with the strange eye makeup, he has had a long career of great songs, albums and concerts. Liam O’Maonlai I am not so sure.

Great stuff, tough subject matter but still done with a sense of humour and genuine sympathy. Compare it to the crocodile tears of the LLS last night.

Uncalled for comment re the LLS - it was a powerful episode on Friday.

Liked last nights TT show. Did not think Anne Doyle would be as off beat as she was - was expecting a boring, snobby south Dublin type if I’m honest. Oddball but likeable.

Yeah. Really liked Anne Doyle. It’s obvious she’s a super smart woman. Great to hear how she marches to the beat of her own drum. Very enjoyable interview.

Brendan Courtney interviewed her on "whose keys are these" I think was the name of the show. She opened up ALOT more to him than to Tommy.

I found her interview with Tommy guarded in comparison, as if she didn't really want to be there.

Another great show, 3 very interesting but different guests, I'd say Anne Doyle is great craic if you met her, funny that she never answered his first question and (I think he forgot) he never pursued her for the answer (about her alleged romance with a politician).

It wasn't alleged.

She had a brief relationship with Jim McDaid.

Both are on record as having no regrets.

Some of the best TV RTÉ has produced in years- I think Tommy could get a great interview out of just about anybody

Fine Cheers

He didn't forget, I'd say he got the vibe from her initial answer that she wasn't going there. Have to say I found the interview a little strange and unfulfilling for some reason. I guess like a lot of the interviews, time is limited and you'd love it to go on longer.

Fine Cheers

The show has become one of the weekend TV highlights for this household. A Thursday night walk is also now a traditional to listen to the podcast with Tommy, Hector and Laurita. Hilarious shenanigans. Tommy also has his own podcast, shorter and deeper observations.

I think it started badly- Tommy was desperately trying to remember things like the McDaid relationship; Anne Doyle is “famous” for not getting married in that she’s spoken about it in many interviews since retirement- so these are 2 things that have been reported on many times in the past-I think he came in to early with this line of questioning and it probably closed her down a bit- it warmed up eventually though - saying that, Anne didn’t have much to say that she didn’t say before. She’s 70 next year which is hard to believe as I remember her first appearance on TV news and looks very well

When we wear masks its all in the eyes and while Micheal Stipe was a pionneer in eyemakeup I think henna suits Liams eyes

Yeah he started the interview rather weirdly I thought. Going straight to relationship status is strange for any interview even if it's the question you most want to ask.

She was very open with Brendan Courtney about her past relationships pretty much starting from school going to present day.

I'd say she's a formidable woman knows what she wants and goes after it.

I thought the Gottfried Helnwein interview was great. He's some talent.

Here we go in a few min. Wonder who we'll have tonight.

Tame LLS, a bit of Easter entertainment be nice.

Forgot all about it until I seen this (keep thinking it’s Sunday). Nice one.

Dougal! He looks kinda sexy.

Apart from Dougal is he any good as a comedian? Totally overshadowed by that one character.

HeyV

His features really changed since Dougal

More rugged.

Fairly worn around the eyes. Suppose we all age differently.

I went googling. A very interesting family with strong alleged links to Scientology.

Must be a nightmare having gobsh1tes shouting the same catchphrases at you every day.
