    But it's typical of life in Western Ireland, where daddy must approve his daughters suitors.

    offtopic, i just want to express my love of the delightfully amateurish "Irish Paint Magic" (sundays 7:30 TG4), with the guy talking to the paintings ... "Talk to me Mr. River".... "sit down rock there would ya"
    genius

    I started a thread bout the painting guy parasite. I just think the dating show is the funniest. When they flick to guy behind screen, and the face on him! Or when they meet who has been picked. They have to put it in irish. haha:D

    the tragically irish thing is how everyone is so mortified to be on the show

    There mortified because they know everyone watching the show. Ireland is not a big country and Irish isn't the most spoken of languages.

    But I like the fact that it doesn't pretend to be anything more then a dating show, unlike the brutal Love On A Saturday Night.

    I would like to see RTE/TV3 do a version of Cleanas (sp?) with Brendan O Carroll as host, while I don't particulary like BOC I thought his dating show on the Telethon was the funniest thing to come out of the Telethon.
