Former Wet Wet Wet singer Marti Pellow is among this week's guests on Saturday's Ray D'Arcy Show.

The 53-year-old star, who announced last year that he was leaving the bandafter 30 years together, will take us through his collection of hits and some of his personal favourites.

Popular satirical website Waterford Whispers News, will broadcast their first live RTÉ One news bulletin on Saturday's show.

There will also be a host of well-known faces in studio as former 'Mrs Brown's Boys' actor Rory Cowan, Erin McGregor, Ryan Andrews and James Patrice join Ray for a chat about their collaboration in the Olympia Panto, 'Polly and the Magic Lamp'.

After spending 34 years broadcasting to the nation, much-loved RTÉ News broadcaster Una O’Hagan opens up about life after retirement and how writing a book about her personal connection to Saint Thérèse of Lisieux has been keeping her busy.

'The Ray D’Arcy Show' airs on Saturday at 9:45pm on RTÉ One.

It's no wonder the little guy always sounds so depressed.

Horrendously, this lineup looks “better.”

NIMAN · 29-09-2018 06:38PM

At least this show has someone from outside Ireland in it.

LLS show just goes around the RTE building now for its guests.

Icsics · 29-09-2018 06:51PM

Is Rory going to tell us all again why he left Mrs Browns Boys? Cannot stand Erin McGregor, why is she on?

Well, now they're "Dry,Dry,Dry" but yes, up until then they were "Wet,Wet,Wet":p

"Popular satirical website Waterford Whispers News, will broadcast their first live RTÉ One news bulletin on Saturday's show."

It speaks volumes that this made me instantly cringe, even though anything I've ever seen on WW (admittedly, that isn't a huge number of things) made me laugh.

Same template as the Irish Independent website - any techies on here that can explain further?

It's a brilliant website, love all their stuff. But i fear for this, whatever it's going to be.

I'd say she will no doubt use the opportunity to promote her brothers whiskey.

Yer Da sells Avon · 29-09-2018 08:46PM

The continuity announcer just described Marti Pellow as a 'Scotch singer'.

Welsh Megaman · 29-09-2018 08:48PM

Evening all!

Atlantic Dawn · 29-09-2018 08:48PM

I guess Al Porto isn't taking part this year so to speak?

Ol' Donie · 29-09-2018 08:48PM

There should be some sort of law against talking about panto this early in the year.

That was Ray's opening line. Before doing an interview about panto, that literally no one wants.

This is knuckle chewingly stupid.

Defaulter1831 · 29-09-2018 08:50PM

Looks like anyone can get into this panto

Ol' Donie · 29-09-2018 08:50PM

What the hell actually is panto?

Is it a sort of drag show for kids?

How does this even exist?

It's basically an infommercial to tie in with the ads for that panto RTE have recently begun running.

Welsh Megaman · 29-09-2018 08:52PM

I have nothing of particular interest to say.

Oh wait...

POST NO. 40,000!

And now here's Jarvis 'I Hate Wet Wet Wet' Cocker!

Infomercial. That word is synonymous with low quality crap, isn't it?

Welsh Megaman · 29-09-2018 08:53PM

Great banter, Rory.

Now tell us why you left 'Mrs. Browns Boys'.

About 20 years ago I had some visitors over from the states. As it was Christmas I brought them to the Panto, told them it was traditional for children at Christmas.

They were horrified by it, and kept asking was it really suitable for children.

Atlantic Dawn · 29-09-2018 08:55PM

I don't love panto.

Defaulter1831 · 29-09-2018 08:56PM

I don't like fcuking PANTO!

Welsh Megaman · 29-09-2018 08:56PM

That's because it's absolute b*llocks.

newmember2 · 29-09-2018 08:57PM

This is really great

Atlantic Dawn · 29-09-2018 08:59PM

How in the jaysus can kids 'work' the panto when it's on during school term?

Ol' Donie · 29-09-2018 08:59PM

Mrs Brown's Boys is better than panto.

Think about that.

Welsh Megaman · 29-09-2018 08:59PM

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

vladmydad · 29-09-2018 09:00PM

I always taught it was rather perverted.

Welsh Megaman · 29-09-2018 09:01PM

The audience prize...tickets to the panto.

Say Your Number · 29-09-2018 09:01PM

They're still doing the 'only one side of the audience will get the prize' bollox.

Atlantic Dawn · 29-09-2018 09:02PM

There's about 10 visible screens above the audience for him to see what's behind him.

Icsics · 29-09-2018 09:03PM

Another new low, rip off of comp on This Morning, except they do it right! And why in Gods name is he pretending only half the audience will get a prize, even my hamster doesn't believe that line!

Atlantic Dawn · 29-09-2018 09:03PM

Ah they are not doing the 4 of them are they?

My children are taken to the cork opera house panto every year with the school. They absolutely hate it. I can’t decide if that makes them highly intelligent or total curmudgeons.

Welsh Megaman · 29-09-2018 09:03PM

Please show a picture of Al Porter

Ol' Donie · 29-09-2018 09:03PM

Jesus Christ.

This is imbecilery on an entirely new level.

The panto in cork has a great tradition.

Billa O'Connell, cha and miah. It was a good night out.

Ripping off This Morning.

I have quite a bad pain in my knee. Hurt it earlier. Really quite uncomfortable.

It's my favourite thing about the last ten minutes

29-09-2018 09:06PM

The irrelevance of these four guests is astounding.

Icsics · 29-09-2018 09:06PM

Soooo they all got the prize....huge surprise there Ray!

Defaulter1831 · 29-09-2018 09:07PM

For What Died The Sons of Roisin.

Was it the Ray Darcy Show?
