RTE can't accept it did feck all to Trump, an obese man 75 year old man who likes his KFC and McDonalds while playing the odd game of golf.

While adding he now feels 20 years younger.

He is some entertainment

Wow.. young lad on tv recounting his experience of getting very very sick and ending up on a ventilator and we have posters here making fun of this...Stay classy..

Roots 2020

He's a nice young fella, hope he makes a full recovery.

On a general note I see a good few chaps wearing nail varnish. Is that fashion or a sexuality statement?

Welsh Megaman

He has all the makings of a goth rock singer-in waiting, a la Marilyn Manson.

Young people of Ireland. I love you!!!!

He’s a great kid

I'm so far gone at this stage AD, I think I'm losing my mind. They all look like crisis actors to me at this stage.

Are you allowed slag redheaded people these days or is that not allowed anymore?

Probabaly an old 'harmless' relative, people need to wise the fook up and suspect everyone has it, including themselves.

Did he just roll his eyes when his mother was speaking, ha. Geez

His clothes are going to catch fire and he's going to show a hand gesture symbol that will unify us all soon.

Back in the day everybody watched it. When I was in teens & 20s peers would always know what had been on. But there was an amazing broadcaster at the helm.

Strange folks.

Shy and socially awkward young lad tells his story about Covid. Men give him grief because he’s still trying to find his place in the world.

He’ll end up better off than them. He retains a positive outlook.

I visited a friend who was 10 weeks on a ventilator once. It is very sobering seeing all the patients in ICU, everybody should have a look inside one some time.

Postop is like a field hospital (my OH is a cancer survivor).

I cannot give front line health workers-and I mean front line, not the dolled up to the nines brigade strolling around CUH with clip boards, enough credit.

It's not a job, it's a vocation, and when you look at the number of them (nurses, doctors, paramedics and EFRs) who went down with C19 in the early days, despite all the precautions, and not a word about it, while other sectors can't even handle two state exams, and a six month lead in to restarting our schools, without running to the unions, or in the case of the bureaucrats, panicking at the last minute and getting it wrong, it makes you think.

Oh come on, we have every sympathy for the poor lad and the ordeal he's been through. But even a 2 year old could see through this propaganda piece from rte.

He's the most articulate 17 year old I've ever encountered.

Why does he need to protest that all his injuries are because of COVID. Would somebody who is normally ill feel the need to justify why they need crutches? Feels like a sales job here.

Because as this thread has showed in this segment people say oh your on crutches must be underlying condition can't happen otherwise. That or they just rat on his style instead

I don't think they can feel anything because they don't have a soul, so I imagine they are fair game

Ol' Donie

This idea that RTE are scaremongering is slightly absurd.

Aside from the fact that it calls into question their integrity, who is supposed to be benefiting from it?

It's the deep state, isn't it? Or does Dee Forbes' husband own a mask factory or something?

Welsh Megaman

Stay safe, folks!

Watching Graham Norton, some silly banter as usual, but the only mention of coronavirus so far was a piss take of Trump leaving the Medical Centre to drive past his supporters.There is also a socially distanced audience.Its a world apart from the Late Late Misery Show.

They actually ring them in advance?

It would appear the only spontaneous thing that would ever possibly happen Mr. Tubridy would be if his Amazon order (support your local bookshop, folks!) came a day early.

Can’t fooking stand his shows, yet they are still infinitely better than Ryan Tubridy!

Drop foot owing to nerve damage (neuropathy) or myopathy is a recognised complication of prolonged ICU stay,(long before Covid was a thing)

It's not financially driven propaganda, it's the nanny State in full swing. RTE is our State broadcaster. Paddy can't be trusted with information and facts, like there's probably a 100,000/1 chance of a random 17 year old suffering that much after contracting covid.

My brother won it about 10 years ago. Trip to the Maldives and 10 grand. They phoned him about 15 minutes before the "call" and warned him that there should be no screaming/shouting etc.

I am not a big fan myself, but it has a bit of fun and laughter, something that doesn't exist in Tubridyland.

There's probably something in GDPR that prevents them getting somebody to answer a phone live on the show, in case wrong individual answered-they have to determine the caller's identity or something like that by asking 10 official questions and reading out legal terms & conditions.

Haven't watched Graham Norton in years,just switched over after reading your comment.Laughed twice in 2 minutes,had the feel of a flagship Friday night entertainment show,imagine that.

Storm 10

How can Graham have an audience and the Late Late can't their well spaced out

I must have heard that show... I vaguely recall being very jealous of someone winning a trip to Maldives!!!

I don't agree with him being slagged. But I don't agree with him being used to push the "COVID is dangerous to all" narrative either - because it's not, the death stats don't back this up. How many people of his age have died solely from COVID. None.

Five Eighth

Read the posts and had a good few laughs. Questions crossed my mind on more than one occasion:
Q1. Why would anyone waste a Friday night (even during Covid) watching the Late, Late Show?
Q2 Why would anyone waste any of their time on this earth having any interest in any celebrities anywhere?
