That's grand Martina.

Now, communism. What was that like? A lot of hunger and that, as I understand it?

He might have a pair of Levis 501 for her in his desk drawer :pac:

CH3OH

" you tried to make me cry" she did her research on Tubs

Atlantic Dawn

People back then in those countries were idiots, they needed to rise up against the machine and die doing it if that's what it took.

She's actually sound to be fair, I was expecting a Merkel type character with zero humour.

She has always been great in interviews,a true sports star and at last an "A"list
guest on The Late Late.

Jaysus, it sounds better than 80s Ireland all the same.

Welsh Megaman

''Are you trying to make me cry.''


Martina, meet misery.

Too Tough To Die

Lol 2nd week.

They did in her country in 1968!!!

sligojoek

Nearly time for an old clip.

PeterTheNinth

Her family tried to get an illegal stream on the internet, but the Russians blocked it at match point.... the b*stards.

Skid X

There was a very good doc about Martina during the Summer on BBC1 called 'Just call me Martina'

Worth checking out online.

So weird how the Czechoslovakia media stopped reporting on Wimbledon when she won. Strange times.

jluv

This is a great interview. Really find her interesting.

Are you serious?? Prague Spring 1968 ring any bells? Russian tanks roll in..

take everything

She's a good guest

Pinch Flat

Tubs is getting on her wick

Skid X

I was at the recording of this during the week.

Martina was pure class even after the cameras stopped.

take everything

Dainty little lawyer.

CH3OH

She's actually 60 (61 next month) She does look well

Baron Kurtz

Tubridy trying his best to make this ordinary. She's pretty class.

Atlantic Dawn

Can we have some tennis related challenge at the end of her interview with audience participation?

Welsh Megaman

I'm surprised Ryan hasn't got Martina playing a game of 'how many tennis balls you can get in the basket in 30 seconds.'

De Bild

A+ star.

Seems ages since LLS had one on.

paleoperson

A little boring for me, good for a LLS guest but I thought she might be better.

There was also her short-lived cooking show, in which she sang as she cooked...

Martina's Kitchen 8-)



I'll see myself out.

Serious fangirl.

Baron Kurtz

Dunno if it's touching or weird to drag out the Mammy tennis lady.

Toy Soldiers have been despatched to confine the fallout from that joke

Auto, as I said to you last week I do see him regularly!

If you have any message for him, let me know

PeterTheNinth

Here we go now, the token easy Trump jokes.

He got voted in, get over it.

Atlantic Dawn

Trump is great craic on the Twitter machine, he's gold.

Atlantic Dawn

Trump will do 2 terms.

Arne_Saknussem

He should ask her a question about tennis.

Skid X

Martina went over to her after the interview ended and they had a nice chat.

RobertKK

The US just had two terrible candidates, one has a proven history of voting and supporting every war going, the other is Trump.

It is possible the least worst person won.

PeterTheNinth

Is Martina taken over Dil's slot tomorrow night?

In what prison?

sligojoek

"Do you think he's sexist and racist?"

He won't say it himself but gets someone else to say it.

Welsh Megaman

Would be funny if she throws Ryan a curveball and says 'I love Trump, he's a great President. Thank god it wasn't Hilary.'

Yes nothing on tennis rivalries. Even a few highlight clips. Most under 35 don't know who she is.
