Roisin Murphy should be a household name. She's very good.

The problem I have with modern society is how work is structured, we are expected to go and work with a load of strangers and be friends with them even though you hate them. In the past people worked with their family and neighbours (who were cousins too), when I go to work it feels very wrong to have to leave my townland, it feels fundamentally wrong and unnatural, it makes me want to cry.

On the other hand I don't think I would have coped in the old world either but maybe that is because I was raised in this era, if I was born in 1792 and never experienced television then I wouldn't have missed it. At this stage I think I would agree to swap my life with the life of a 10th century Irishman, I would be a tribesman of the Cenel Eoghain of Inishowen, conquering lands to the east, I probably would have died in battle against the Airgialla but it would have been a more natural life than watching the Tommy Tiernan show and drinking coca cola zero.

Missed it last night...

Did Tiernan ask his usual sex type questions?

He asked plenty about 'riding' to Katie Walsh, but went quiet on it a bit on it when Ted Walsh mentioned he shared his bed with his uncle from the age of 2 or how an Italian man offered to buy him as a child! :eek:

Asked Katie what type of fellas she was attracted to etc as well.
Besides that it seemed more toned down than usual.

The other guest he had on that I saw was Colm Meaney. Were good interviews the lively chatty guests suit him better.

I thought the season ended last week.It would be great to get more episodes

Ten Pin · 14-03-2020 4:31pm

The new show with Angela Scanlon was due to start either this week or next so if it was going to be live with an audience then that couldn't go ahead. If it was recorded then it might only be a few days in advance so the same reasoning applies.

Tommy's show is probably recorded a few weeks ago. If not then it would be interesting to see if it works without an audience.

I don't see the need to audition to trial other presenters. We have our presenter, Tommy Tiernan. He should be given a run at Saturday nights and get rid of D'Arcy. I'm not being unkind but that is the way the land lies right now.

Osamabindipper · 15-03-2020 3:13am

I love Tommy interviewing, watching tubby last night on the late late and him butting in when a question was been answered all I could think about was.... Tommy would of had an awkward silence there and that feker would of been made to explain himself.

Maybe Tommy Tiernan doesn't want to do live Saturday night shows.

It was on 25th of January and his name is James Leonard ,that might help you find it,excellent interview.

LoughNeagh2017 · 23-03-2020 5:18am

I never really considered Dubliners to be a true Irish people anyway regardless of their race, I think true Gaelic people come from rural townlands. It is just like London or Manchester, their city identity is unique.

gormdubhgorm · 23-03-2020 5:59pm

Might be of interest to people reading did thread - Tommy was interviewed by Gay Byrne on his programme 'The meaning of life' back in 2010. It is still on the RTE player. Jayus, I thought Tommy was putting on the 'deep thinker' bit as a show. But he wanted to be a priest or a philosopher in the past!

Atlantic Dawn · 28-03-2020 11:35pm

It's a repeat, no new shows have been made since the codliver oil and orange juice band were on.

RTE have it down as new and episode 12 in the series in their listings, but they had the same last week and it wasnt.

Given the later than usual time slot, probably not.

Sky app has it as season 3 ep 7. The one before last weeks.

Tommy meets Jon Kenny, Simone George and Mark Pollack, and talks genetics with Professor Aoife McLysaght.
