On The Ray D’Arcy Show…

Sinéad Harrington writes:

This Saturday night, Ireland’s most popular architect Dermot Bannon joins Ray D’Arcy to talk about being like a kid in a sweet shop when he crossed the Atlantic to look at homes in L.A. and New York for his new television series.

‘House Hunt’ goes celebrity this weekend. One well-known Irish personality will open up their doors to Ray this week to play for cash for their chosen charity

Also on the show, Peter McVerry will be asking people to donate their water charge refund to “The Refund Project”, a campaign spearheaded by the Simon Community, Focus Ireland and the Peter McVerry Trust, to help homelessness.

And as it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…Ray might just treat viewers to a seasonal lip sync!

Can't believe I missed last night's LLS...Marty for 'Dancing With The RTE Canteen Stars', eh?

We have our winner

Harry Palmr

Most popular architect? Does he have a certificate to prove that or is it a supposition based on his fizog being on the RTE telly screen?

Rock Lesnar

Iv'e heard Dermot Bannon once this week, and Peter McVerry at least 3 times on radio this week

Looking forward to hearing them again.

Anybody know who is the ''celebrity'' doing the house hunt, surely has to be somebody from RTE

Sorry Pete, It's already been lodged and spent.

That money was just resting in my account.

CH3OH

Ray.... the point of a surprise is that you don't tell them beforehand

Rock Lesnar

That set needs Big huge glass panel to bring in the light, luckily the right man is there.

Welsh Megaman

Pfft...Dermot is at least my fourth favourite Irish architect.

Mena Mitty

Good evening all.

Atlantic Dawn

I'd love if they took the cameras around Dermots house so we can see if he has it perfect or what the setup is.

RobertKK

Looking at Dermot, his ears make me think he is an elf...

Atlantic Dawn

I'd have thought with him being an architect he would have had every DIY tool under the sun all neatly filed away alphabetically.

Atlantic Dawn

LA is a kip.

Welsh Megaman

Dermot's house...

I think he's the only one I know.

And yet, I can truthfully say I have no favourite Irish architect.

Isn't that weird?

martingriff

When did he become people's go to guy to me he is an bully if he does not get his own way and if I was getting a new house he would not be my first 50th choice

Rock Lesnar

Look at all that glass, no wonder hes smiling

CH3OH

I'd say he nearly had an orgasm in the apartment

He'd have a better chance of trimming the trunk of the Christmas tree with an electric carving knife than a blunt hacksaw.

Gone very Jessie J, it's not about the money

They're actually sending them back, as banks won't accept them, according to Livelahn :rolleyes:

Afaik, his house is old & he can't change much in it, according to the wife!

I'd love to go to LA.

Always felt like I'd be very much at home with those Boyz in the hood type chaps.

No interest in this Dermot Bannon and his work, but I've never understood the expression 'property porn'

I was around before the Internet, I can be creative when needs must ... but not over pictures of houses.

You would love the Boys in the hood types, loads of them about but most shocking is loads of homeless and downtrodden, for one of the richest countries on earth there's such a crazy divide, it was like something you would see in Somalia.

Would you be allowed bring porridge in your luggage to US, thought it would count as a banned foodstuff?

Rock Lesnar

F*cks sake, another stupid game on this show with hard hats and high vis jackets to match

RobertKK

OMG hard hats.... :rolleyes:

2 wooden props on the set..... Jenga and D'arcy

He does come across as a bully alright in his programme. But I'm sure he has the ear of the producers to put his pov across. Comes across badly though...

Mena Mitty

O Mother of the Divine....'I'm competitive, you're competitive' he's gone back to challenging guests.

Bunny Colvin

Was gonna watch a bit of this and read this thread but nah. That is an absolutely shocking lineup.

Well, first thing I'd do is get Riggs and Murtagh on the case.

Was Baywatch in LA? I'd make sure Mitch knows about it too.
