The Late Late Show - September 15th 2017

Skid X

Hello,

Welcome back back back to the show that keeps on giving, its the Late Late Show.

Not sure whats going on here but proper Tennis Legend Martina Navratilova is on. Maybe the greatest ever Tennis Player, winner of 18 Singles and 42 Doubles Grand Slams titles. Martina seems to be quite happy with her life but if there's any repressed memories about living under Communism or having to hide her sexuality, Agent Tubs is on the case. Mystic Skid predicts talk of Martina for Taoiseach, Wheelbarrows and Watches made out of bits of Tennis Rackets.


Tom Vaughan Lawlor has played Padraig Pearse, Charlie Haughey and Nidge. He's in the new Avengers film but he's talking about his other new film Maze, which is about the Prison Break out in 1983 in Belfast. The biggest Prison Break since Prison Break. Or maybe The Great Escape. Or Escape to Victory.


RTE Canteen Pluggy Pluggy time as Bridget and Eamon plug their new series of Bridget and Eamon. Possibly not the worst comedy ever shown on RTE. I mean, I've never watched it, but I watched The Cassidys years ago. That was bad. And Extra Extra, Read All about it, that was worse ...


Vanessa Feltz is an English TV and Radio Presenter. Why is she here? Well, why are any of us here? Is there anybody out there? Is the Matrix real? What about Deja Vu? Vanessa may or may not tackle those questions.


Following the Tullow Tank last Friday we get more Carlow talent this week in the shape of Garryhill's own former D-Side Sensation Derek Ryan.


Also on board are Dublin folk Brothers Hudson Taylor Not to be confused with Hudson Hawk, the very odd Bruce Willis film where he plays a Burglar. One for the Bruce Willis Die Hards only.


It says nothing on the RTE blurb about any Illness or disease, but I know you know them better than to believe that
Edit: Yeah, it's one of the big diseases this week. Full details in a few posts time. Just for fun, see if you can guess which one.

Lady Chatterton

One Cure song is never ever enough......

Happy Friday Darlings....

This pair are a really bad influence on me, they're not too keen on spending a Friday night watching Tubs on the telly box

Update:

Yes, it wouldn't be Friday Night without a segment on Motor Neurone Disease

The world of Ruth Fitzmaurice and her husband Simon was turned upside down when Simon was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2008.

Ruth will discuss how the family have coped since, Simon’s unbending spirit and will to survive and how swimming in the Irish Sea helped her to find her tribe and her own voice.

and

Late Late viewers will get a sneak peek at some of the cherished objects vying to be declared a National Treasure.

I'll have a few bottles of whatever Patsy and Eddy are drinking.

Please Drink (Responsibly or otherwise)

Mr E

Might go to mother! in the cinema tonight, even though this lineup is more horrific.

Ryan "Tubs" Fontane won't dare criticise Don Haughey

It's Friday night, it's time to party. Whose up for a bit of Motor Nuerone Disease chat. Whoop Whoop!!!

Skid X

Well, I kind of thought people must be getting tired of the cat and dog pictures in the OP, it's been going for nearly 5 years now,




The first picture is a teaser set up to the final video of Friday I'm In Love, and the graphics are a clever visual illustration of the lyrics which .... Ah well, please yourselves :P

Bridget and Eamon! Guys, get your sick buckets ready..what a pile of vomit that show is.

It'll start off with Kevin Myers and move on to George Hook.

I'm on the edge of my seat here waiting for my weekly dose of Tubs

TheRiverman

No interest in watching any of them apart from Martina Navratilova.

Vanessa Feltz who stuck her liberal machete into Kevin Myers, for the love of God. George Hook getting the boot today in the name of leftist bullsh*t was enough. Sorry about that rant!

Kerrydude1981

Evening all

Looks like Tubs has a challenge on his hands tonight to get tears out of a guest

Welsh Megaman

Evening all!

Martina?

Pah! Gimme Melanie and Martina anyday!

Thargor

I am actually interested to hear what she thought of that penny pinching jew article, has Myers been shut down like George Hook for it? I dont like the modern hysteria over everything but I also despise both of those "journalists".

Welsh Megaman

Time to rock this casbah!

Well I certainly agree that is the most appropriate word to describe him.

Welsh Megaman

Rola Cola, Nidge.

Or something like that.

Geoffrey, would you either do a proper Boycott of this show or get stuck in properly and start posting?

Preferably the latter, obviously

Welsh Megaman

I'm starting to think they were planted in the audience.

walshb

Staring at the midday sun would be more enjoyable than listening to these two, or three if you include Tubridy.

RobertKK

Bridget said the truth.

jluv

This gives me a great opportunity to ask a question that was in my head today..
Does ANYBODY find these two funny? Seriously..maybe they do but I cringe as soon as I see them or even hear them..

Welsh Megaman

I agree with Bridget on that one!

Kerrydude1981

Fake laugh by Tubs

aaaarggggghhh. I just cant do it Skid.... just.....cant ....... do.ooo................it.

Atlantic Dawn

And they scrapped Mario Rosenstocks show but gave these another series, the mind boggles.

PeterTheNinth

Good news to hear that Clarke Carlisle has been found safe, reportedly by the Late Late Show researchers who want him for interview next week.

JaMarcusHustle

Jesus, a lot of those jokes got little to no response from the audience. Awkward.

Berserker

Evening all. Oh, some "comedy" to kick things off.

Atlantic Dawn

<SnowFlakeen>I better ring up and complain about her "am I on fire" joke as distasteful because of de London "bomb" this morning</SnowFlakeen>

Welsh Megaman

When is 'The Graham Norton Show' back?

Graham will be gutted that Ryan bagged the Motor Neuron Disease guest.

Skid X

Derek Batey will be turning in his grave looking at this.

walshb

Good nite, folks!

Hitchens

Is the constant smoking supposed to be funny in some way?

Graham really scrapping the barrel for his series opener :P

glenfieldman

I never believe when a so called jouno says they never go online
I'm calling BS after 2 mins

Welsh Megaman

Best avoid the interwebs, Vanessa.

Nothing but keyboard warriors posting abuse about inept broadcasters :pac:

Bridget and Eamon finally leaving the stage.

Up next it's rent a gob.

sudzs

Would love if Kevin Myers made a surprise appearance!

Skid X

The Jews - great bunch of lads.

Atoms for Peace

Maybe Myers had a point, unsufferable.

walshb

Society should embrace stereotypes instead of trying to eradicate them. They are part of human nature and human society.

PRODUCER: scan to african taxi driver in audience

Yes, move on...now fook off!

Atlantic Dawn

Tubbs wants misery from her, she wants to have a nice chat it being a Friday evening and dat.
