Den tv presenters

Well, Geri May was a presenter, that's for definite. Emma Ledden (who went off to work in England a few years ago so that may be the Sky presenter you're thinking of, I don't know) used to come in to do a music and entertainment gossipy-type slot every week, or a couple of times a week, maybe. I think Bianca Luyxx (sp?) (formally of "2TV" on a Sunday morning with Dave Fanning) used to also turn up from time to time on The Den. But they're all the ones I can remember.

i have to agree, that thing was the most annoying, loud, poxy, worthless piece of ****
never had a worthwhile thing to say

dustin was cool though, call me childish but i thought he was funny as ****

it was funny when d'arcy did it, they constantly took the piss out of him and he couldn't stop laughing
damien mccall did a surprisingly good job replacing him, since mccall left (when did he leave?) theres been noone but anonamous faces, with no character
when mccall left i didn't notice for a while because he kept disappearing for periods

do they still have the puppets on there now?
i think the last time i saw a glimpse it was some gob****e by himself

Yeah, I forgot about Ciara Carroll. Fine looking girl with curly blonde hair, as I recall. Remember fancing her at the time, as well.

Wasn't there a kind of running gag at the time about her and Ray D'Arcy being an item, or something? They weren't actually an item at all, because D'Arcy was still going out with Geri May at that time, but I always remember Dustin embarassing the sh!te out of the two of them when they'd be on air together by saying things like how he caught them kissing before they came on air and how they were going to get married and all this.

Come to think of it, now I actually remember one time when Dustin made a pretty suggestive innuendo regarding what they used to get up to off-air and Ciara going beetroot-red and completely speechless with embarrasment at Dustin's comment on certain things she liked to get up to with Ray. I think a lot of us teenagers were able to pick up on the innuendo, but I don't think any of the younger viewers would have. But, any adults who had been watching with their kids at the time certainly would have picked up on it. I'm surprised there weren't any complaints about it at the time or more wasn't made of it. Maybe there was, I don't know, but I never heard about it.

Ciara Carrol she was hot she even had a crappy ashow ona saturday morning years ago with the bloke who used to do that crap show with mary kingston and it was always abp0ut getting iotas.

FX was the name of the show.

Orginal hosted by Bynka Lykes and Derke Mooney with roving report Ciara Carrol.

The changed over after a few months and Ciara Carrol was in the studio.

Prob the only saturday morning show RTE got right IMO. But in good fashion was quickly got rid of.

The Works with Mary Kingston and Micheal Sheridan.

Many of the characters Micheal Sheridan played in Bull Island appeared in The Works such as Dunkan Steward.

"can you step out of the car please"

I wouldn't mind but this isn't the worst.

Ray D'arcy after an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and when talking about the schedule tomorrow. one of the shows being "free willy" stated

what do you get when you get two free willies and a packet of corn flakes?

Dustin and Socky promptly exit to leave Ray D'arcy smile into the camera and continue on to another subject.
If anyone knows the punch line to this joke please tell me.

On another occation Mundy was being interviewed and had some joke about a 19 hole golf course something something cann't fully remember. Ray D'arcy quickly replied "ah now you cann't say that". Dustin exits. lol

Well, the comment I mentioned before that Dustin made about Ciara Carroll and Ray D'Arcy was something along the lines of this (it's been many years since so it's a bit hazy, but it was something like this, anyway).

I think they were talking about some competition that they had running at the time in association with Chuppa Chupps lollipops. Dustin made a comment about how Ciara loves sucking on lollipops and things and said, "Here, Ray, sure wasn't Ciara down under your desk there during the break sucking on something?" She just kind of went silent and turned beetroot red and Ray said, "What?" and Dustin goes, "Under your desk, Ray. During the break. Ciara was down there sucking on something." Ciara then ran out of The Den and Ray said, "Dustin!" Dustin then tried backpeddling very quickly by saying, "A lollipop, Ray. One of those Chuppa Chupps lollipops there that rolled off the desk onto the floor. Ciara got down to pick it up and was sucking on it during the break." Ray pretty quickly changed the subject, then.

I'll never forget watching it and laughing but then thinking, "That's it, Dustin's going to be booted out of there so f**king fast. This'll be the last straw with him and RTE." But, funnily enough, nothing came of it. At least, as I said before, I never heard anything coming from it, which is surprising.
