Nothing yet, standard fair (terrible) so far.

Would Joe like to be living in Clontarf Castle, without the other guests so to speak. The house must have some history. He’d be wealthy enough to buy it as a residence, with a wing for each twin or three.

Heartbreaking? It was more like a tournament so to speak. He still managed to get a few plugs in despite the heartbreak believe it or not.

Joe Duffy said he had a heartbreaking Christmas - attending nine funerals, including the late Marian Finucane and Larry Gogan.

The RTE radio presenter, who celebrated his 64th birthday earlier this week went on to joke about facing the RTE retirement age.

Speaking at the red carpet of the The Lieutenant of Inishmore this week, he jokingly told Irish Daily Mirror: “At least I didn’t get my marching orders from RTE.

Laughing, he went on to quote Paul McCartney’s ‘When I’m Sixty-four’ saying: “Don’t tell RTE I’m 64, will they still need me, still they feed me..”, before clarifying that the retirement policy won’t affect him because he isn’t staff.

Following the sad start to the new year for the broadcaster, which included the deaths of two legendary figures, Larry Gogan and Marian Finucane, the Liveline presenter said there is a sadness looming within the station.

The Dubliner told: “There is a sadness over Marian and a sadness over Larry and the residual from Gay.

“I was texting Kathleen[ Watkins, Gay’s wife] the other day, I think she hurt her foot, but isn’t she brilliant, isn’t she brilliant.”

Going on to open up about his own sadness, he revealed that he has had a rough start to the new year.

He said: “Ah yeah that is fine but the other complication, my Christmas was so sad because my mother-in-law died the day after Marian, my aunt died the day.. So I think I went to nine funerals over christmas.”

But looking ahead to the new year, the author of historic novel, Children of the Troubles, said he is hoping to get his documentary on the BBC.

He said: “Well my book is still out there, and we are pitching it, like we made it and broadcast on RTE but we are pitching it to BBC so we are optimistic they are going to broadcast it because it is about the troubles obviously.”

He has the people who turn 65 today on now to be belittled 'hows your health/how old are you 92?'

“Captivated by Dorothy "Dolly" Vernon, lady of Clontarf Castle's charms, Handel would compose Forest Music in her honour.

Dolly's legacy would be remembered in the christening of Dollymount, one of Clontarf's finest neighbourhoods.”

Dear Lisa Marie and Dee Forbes, it is not your job or place as a taxpayer funded institution to promote the private twitter account of a contractor. Please desist from this in future.

Joe is some hypocrite, giving out about the pension when it suits him, but making a mockery and laughing in the pensioners faces for Funny Friday

Atrocious

Who is the Lisa Marie Berry one who is tweeting related to I wonder?

I'm going to put through a FOI request to see if Duffy got expenses for staying in Clontarf Castle Hotel last night.

She’s listed herself as the producer!!!! That’s at least 8 now, if not 9.....for one show.

Looking back through her tweets she seems to have worked for D Arcy before.

Is that a promotion or a demotion to Liveline I wonder?

I mean which is easier, contacting the Fair City office and PJ Gallagher or getting pensioners to call in about their pension.

Oh Gawd. What is this.

A fairly extensive of credits there, how many people involved in this farce every month? BBC announcing 450 redundancies from the News dept alone this week, RTE should take a look.

And a very happy birthday so to speak to the youngest members of today's audience:

BELIEVE IT OR NOT I've done some rudimentary costings on FarcicalFryday in the past so to speak and my estimate is that it costs somewhere in the region of €25,000-40,000 to put on one of these atrocities. That's excluding all venue costs btw as one would have to assume they've free given the publicity so to speak; it's purely "talent", staff and OB (Outside Broadcast) costs. And knowing RTE I'm probably seriously underestimating the actual costs so to speak.
