    A lot of that sociology course ran together, Joe Duffy, Brenda Donaghue and Dave Fanning, Gerry Ryan, Ian Dempsey, all came into RTE1/2FM together.

    What sociology course are you referring to? None of the people you mentioned have studied sociology. They didnt even go to the same university. ryan and dempsey didnt even go to college. And they didnt join RTE at the same time.

    Actually that is correct about Donahue and Duffy. Gerry Ryan was a solicitor/Barrister? There was more money in 2FM than there was deviling.

    I just corrected myself there. I thought I remembered on RTE Brenda O Donoghue saying she was doing sociology in UCD and she worked in the canteen to make extra money.

    Doireann Gahirty , another show on RTE, of her doing the same impressions just in a different costume, please RTE staff you don't have to get everyone who'se related to you a job

    If your rich daddy can sign the cheque for the Billie Barry school you are entitled to a great job in RTE. Talent and IQ is not a barrier to work at RTE. Some people will tell you, Lack there of, is a prerequisite.

    hold up a minute there, he isnt a qualified chef. He is some part time model waster that was pushed forward under a lot of daddys money. The important thing is that your granny thinks he is nice and non threatening to your teenage daughter as eye candy.

    Him particularly, but any celebrity chef, qualified or otherwise. I expect he's as chirpy off camera 247 as he is on...... how could you face that every day???

    Brian Ormonde, or has he vanished already?

    Oh you didnt hear? He owed money to someone in RTE and they sent the Viper Foley (now legitimate businessman involved in debt and asset recovery, see the Barry the Baptist scene from Lock Stock and Two smoking barrels). Himself and Pippa O Connor have now fallen foul of the Montrose Clicque


  • Registered Users Posts: 813 ✭✭✭Macdarack


    Brush shields. Can't stand the sight of him. And his stupid hats.

    Eoghan McDermott


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 736 ✭✭✭TCM


    Vogue Williams, despicable human being who represents everything wrong with the fleeting nature of celebrity these days. A 100% narcissist who needs media attention every second of every day but puts on a false mask of being "down to earth" and one of the people by making documentaries about people in poor countries. Heres an idea, Vogue, maybe keep your baby pictures and wedding etc to yourself like any normal private person? Nah, didn't think so...

    1000000% agree.

    Mairead Ronan and I hate the fact that RTÉ drag her out as some sort of Eurovision expert each year on the late late show. She’s painful to watch and listen to

    Had a good laugh reading this thread. Been living away for a few years and forgot about most of these people. Most irish "celebs" seems like pure cretins. off the top of my head;

    - all of boyzone
    - brian McFadden
    - vogue whatever her name is
    - Gerald kean (the "celeb" solicitor)
    - Michael flatly
    - rosanna Davidson and husband
    - barry egan

    What's the collective noun for a shower of insufferable see-you-next-Tuesday's ??

    Who's that transvestite that won a eurovison for Ireland, she sang 'why me', wouldnt bother me not seeing her on the tele again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 199 ✭✭Dublinmuppet


    The celebs....... that will be in Dancing with the stars. Judging by the lineup they must have raided the RTE canteen and car park.

    although in fairness I haven't seen much of him in a good while!!

    I'm sure his RTÉ series is getting ready to broadcast very soon "What is a Protest - The Yellow Vests & Ireland"

    Mark Cagney. Hate when he is doing a serious interview as he hasn’t a clue. At least Sammy sausages doesn’t pretend to be all clever and highbrow. Would also say Aidan cooney but sure we won’t be seeing him on the Telly any time soon......

    Ciara Kelly and Jonathan Healy. They should get married and then be blasted off to the moon to live in liberal bliss for the rest of their lives.
