Is there really a producer,BCO, researcher/s involved is this verbal scutter ?

Clare county council have had enough!!
https://www.clareecho.ie/council-to-contact-rte-seeking-changes-to-its-schedule-to-help-public-mood/

Officials in the rural and community development section of Clare County Council are to write to RTÉ seeking a change to its broadcasting schedule.


Senior executive officer with the local authority, Bernie Haugh confirmed at the February meeting of the Rural Development Strategic Policy Committee (SPC) that RTÉ are to be contacted to seek a change to their broadcasting schedule.

No schedule change has been implemented by the State broadcaster in the first six weeks of the year, she stated and felt the public’s mood needed a lift which has prompted the decision to write to RTÉ.




Bit of a confusing article if I'm honest but the headline is in the right spirit!

That is a very confusing article. What does "no schedule for the first six weeks of the year" mean?

I am not sure about about listening to Tubridy’s suggestions for something to do if you were at a loose end.

‘A black and white movie’? Firstly why does it have to be black and white? Secondly just because it is black and white does not mean it is any good or interesting. Thirdly it is a film or ‘filum’ as far as I am concerned! None of that ‘movie’ talk.

As for the suggestion to watch a musical 10 minutes of a musical would have me annoyed for the day. All that people singing at each other in the guise of some plot, no thanks. Imagine if someone started singing at you like that in real life non-stop they would be committed? :eek:

The Tony Bennett clip of him singing at home is here

Surviving from the onset of dementia but still sparked by music.

It reminds me of this more extreme example where an American fella called (Henry) who used to stay head down and mute in the nursing home. Suddenly when the music is given to him he is kicked into life. Even after listening to the music there is a lasting effect. And he is then full of chat.

He must have had a great voice back in his day.

The Canadian author (Ashley Audrain) Tubridy was interviewed about her book ‘Push’

More details here:

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/05/books/review/the-push-ashley-audrain.html

The gist is a ‘thriller’ about childbirth, children, motherhood etc. It was noticeable that the author only mentioned father’s once in passing. Until Tubridy addressed the question directly about how men viewed her book. It was turned to a discussion how men view women and are better communicate with their partners after reading the book. It seems like men are a secondary demographic?

I found it odd that the author speaks of the characters as if she has to ‘understand’ them. And as if they are actual people.
How can she not understand them. She has created them?

Regarding the last song that was played.
Here is the Camille Yarbrough ‘Take Yo’ Praise’ song that Fat Boy Slim sampled

One of those effortless, timeless, voices.

Late late show reaching new levels of lack of creativity. Second week in a row visiting back previous guests. I think they must have a calander with a big checklist on it counting down to the day they can have the antiques guy back as he was a rare breed - actually interesting and not about illness and death.

NIMAN

Yeah the LLS is so formulaic these days.

Dating show, country show, folk show, business show, Eurovision show, fashion show, etc etc.

It has truly run out of guests now that it simply repeats tired ideas over and over.

And just fill the rest of the time left with Dermot Bannon, JP Gallagher, Jason Byrne, Rte staff, the Brennans, Diarmuid Gavin.....

Then the family dealing with grief, the ones murdered, the sick kids ....

Cancer, MS, dementia ....

john lydon would be great guest.

parents irish, meningitis as a child, wife ill, could attack ryan like a honey badger at any moment.

I genuinely believe he doesn't get the irony of it all. He seems to actually have aspirations to be like Alan. He's proud of the parallels drawn...

I actually know someone who has never watched a subtitled film.

They simply refuse to do it. Despite me telling them they have missed so many good films.

I remember raving about battle royale to mates for ages and he finally got it and next thing I get a text “it’s subtitled? I’m not reading a movie “


Same thing happened with the raid

Heard him mention 'Mandy' earlier about a deaf girl. RTE showed a film many years ago called 'Johnny Belinda' about a blind girl who was raped. Very sad it was.

Tubridy seemed extra hyper this morning, really flew through the show.
There was a lot of discussion of ‘Yes Day’ for kids. Where the parents say yes to everything for a day.

There was really enthusiastic fella who was interviewed going on about films talking 90 to the dozen.
His name was Ken Wardrop, and he was there to explain ‘access cinema’.

https://www.accesscinema.ie/about/what-we-do


There was a few unintentionally funny bits in the show. I swear Tubridy nearly made a Freudian slip. He was on about previous celebrity politicians Jessy Ventura, Regan etc. He said ‘do we have to mention the previous incumbent of The Late Lat...White House’
Tubridy nearly said ‘previous incumbent of the The Late Late’

There was a fella interviewed from Monaghan with a (very strong accent) James Sheeran
He mentioned The Clones Film Festival https://clonesfilmfestival.com/ and chatted about films in general.

Not to be confused with the Cannes Film Festival.

Tubridy gave him an intro saying that he was a former French Teacher, after the initial hello. I was thinking how is that fella a French teacher, with an accent like that?

Anyway the Monaghan fella (James) correct Ryan. He said ‘I lived with a French teacher. I was not a French teacher’. That made me laugh. Also to add insult to injury, Tubridy called him Sheridan instead of Sheeran. It happened a number of times throughout the interview. Tubridy made the correction after the interview was over.

The usual obscure facts were there. There was mention of the death of the inventor of the cassette tape ‘Lou Ottens’.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/mar/11/lou-ottens-inventor-of-the-cassette-tape-dies-aged-94

He also mentioned Trevor Peacock.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trevor_Peacock

And he somehow managed to segue from Mr Peacock, to James Bond theme tune Goldfinger. As Mr Peacock had the chance to write the theme tune for Goldfinger, but said he could not do it because he could not think of another word to rhyme with finger!? Someone sent in a great text saying Peacock would have really struggled with the 'Clockwork Orange' theme tune.

Anyway, Goldfinger was played:

Shirley Bassey great voice, but the lyrics seem unintentionally funny?

Also, he played a tune which was on the TV series Smoother (Which I never watched)

It was by the Villagers, called 'Trick of the Light'

Loved that. The only person I can remember is Danny La Rue and his wonderful costumes. The Andy Williams show and the Black and White minstrel show were very popular in single channel land also.
