Did I see Daniel o Donnells wife in the audience ? I ask because Daniel is doing a pre recorded bit.

I think Majella spends a good bit of time in Ireland!

Andrea Corr was like a rabbit in the headlights. She hadn’t a clue what to say. Hardly a person known for great thoughts or words of wisdom.

I don't care, I could stare at her all day.

Rte with their ads during a special like this. Bastids.

I'd say Miriam is saying to herself. "Why did I sit here?"

Fair play, managing to slip in a misery slot

Gay's misery stories were much better than Tubs's

He was sheer class.

shes watching joe in case she gets a slobbery kiss from him.... (again)

Expunge

Should be said that Brendan Balfe was Gay's favourite presenter. He said it in interviews many times. He should have had some time for that reason alone.

Yamanoto

Well said Gaybo

To this day Republican loons hold a grudge against him.

Tubridy though couldn't handle the situation. He cannot cope with the unexpected. One wonders why he got the job.

Not a Tubridy fan but he dealt with that brilliantly. Jesus Christ, some people can't get past their own bias. That was a tough situation, live on air, and he dealt with it like a pro.

I disagree with you. Is that hard for you to understand?

Fair play she didn’t let the bastards win.

He’s gone from it. Trying to sell it with a good bit. A gracious man.

This. Even though I grew up with this and it was permanently on the news/TV it seems very surreal to watch it now.

Ah the heavy weights are here!!

Gaybo would bring on something totally upbeat after the misery to cheer us up. I so well remember the show on the night of Canary Wharf atrocity. It acknowledged the dreadful happening but attempted to lift the spirits nonetheless.

Nearer than we thought. Watch the UDA and the UVF over Brexit.

Darcys High Heels.... dope

For all the “celebs” and RTE buddies, a nice touch having that girl back on.

NIMAN

Let's not talk about anything but this girl.

It's a show about gay byrne ffs.

Couldn't resist a bit of misery.

Still, you don't hear strong enough language these days when it comes to describing these utter scumbags.

She must certainly does not. You need to look up the nun.

I missed a bit of that, did she get sight back?

Sir Oxman

This really isn't about the Troubles.
I don't mean that young woman who has a connection to Gay Byrne and the LLS.

But this rambling crap from mcAleese!
I can't stand her.

thecretinhop

wee daniel recorded on agfa vhs tape there

jammiedodgers

Did that girl get her sight back?

Andrew00

Has D'Arcy had a bit to say yet?

passremarkable

This fr darcy would be at the opening of an envelope.
He is everywhere

RabbleRouser2k

That was genuine emotions from Brendan O'Carroll. And yeah, Tommy looked like he'd been crying.

Cripes, you forget all the comedians Gay gave a leg up.

Ally Dick wrote: »

Is Tommy Tiernan emotional, or does he have runny eyes?

He genuinely was. It looked like he was genuinely emotional.

Your man KillianM2 on Youtube has a playlist of over 100 Gay Byrne/Old LLS clips

Well worth a look

I only remember the very end of the troubles but the fact we are even remotely taking about maybe going back to those times is amazing.

This is like reeling in the years. So old and gone.
