WTF?:eek:

If I was a member of the travelling community I would be incandescent with rage.
That was shocking!

WTF is right!

Was hard to tell if it was a skit that had gone horribly wrong or if a nutter had crashed the stage. In fact, I'm still not sure....

abouttobebanned · 03-10-2008 8:42pm

For those who don't watch that programme...what happened?

kleefarr · 03-10-2008 8:42pm

What happened?

The very night my wife decides not to watch it and something interesting happens.

aidan_walsh · 03-10-2008 8:42pm

What happened?

Avns1s · 03-10-2008 8:43pm

Looking forward to her "slot" later in the show!

Amazotheamazing · 03-10-2008 8:46pm

I'm reluctant to explain in case I'm the only guy in the country who didn't get the skit.

Basically a person dressed up as a stereotypical traveller woman came on and told some unfunny jokes and sang some unfunny songs.

punchestown · 03-10-2008 8:49pm

I dont know if my words could do it justice.

Pat was doing the intro; who was appearing etc when all of a sudden you hear a voice shouting in the background. It was a females voice so it couldnt have been 'youre a censor, arseholes, piece of ****' guy. Some oulwan comes on dressed to appear as a member of the travelling community. She starts cracking some 'joke' about being moved to a prefab than makes some disgraceful joke about a 'traveller' funeral where they were all fighting at it bar the man in the box. Then she breaks into song changing the words in some popular songs to incorporate some more traveller stereotypes.
Not a bit funny

Our man in Havana · 03-10-2008 8:49pm

Just set the sky+ for the repeat.

By the sounds of it I would not be very impressed either.

charlietangodel · 03-10-2008 8:51pm

Was it Katherine Lynch playing one of her characters 'Singing Bernie Walsh'?

july johnson · 03-10-2008 8:56pm

Who is Katherine Lynch?

slumped · 03-10-2008 8:59pm

i don't think travellers would be offended - simply because no reasonable person would think that's what the travelling community is really about.

I actually thought it was someone storming the set (before I saw her).

Tracey Piggot is boring load of sh1te.

Zigmund · 03-10-2008 9:00pm

This won't end well.

Amazotheamazing · 03-10-2008 9:01pm

She's back on.

slumped · 03-10-2008 9:02pm

now i'm just plainly embarassed.

Makes Tubs look like Jay Leno or Letterman.

What a slapper.............

What Sh1t

Amazotheamazing · 03-10-2008 9:03pm

Still, Pat is well worth his wage...

Didn't see her slot but she had a couple of "Truppenny bits".

Bros123 · 03-10-2008 9:04pm

Oh lordy lordy.

Why do I do this to myself.....:(

That was the feeling I got too. Still offensive, though.

slumped · 03-10-2008 9:09pm

i'm cancelling my DD for my licence.

Was it really for charity?

Jeez, I've heard some horrible things about my beloved hometown but you sir, have gone to far!

Avns1s · 03-10-2008 9:11pm

Methinks, you wouldn't want to take anything on the Late Late Show too seriously! :rolleyes:

kraggy · 03-10-2008 10:22pm

She had a 3 part programme on earlier in the year where she played different characters in a series called Working Girls.

One of them was "Singin Bernie Walsh".

This is it here. It's very funny. She wasn't funny at all tonight though.

july johnson · 03-10-2008 10:41pm

thanks...that was funny..lol

BoardsRanger · 03-10-2008 10:48pm

great irish tv - in fairness tho the squatting part was funny " now squat squat squat ... see pat your not the only squatter" !

amacachi · 03-10-2008 10:59pm

Didn't catch this tonight, but if it was Katherine Lynch then I'm glad I didn't. ****sake why do people think that being a fat woman with a big mouth and a dirty laugh makes someone funny and deserving of a place on television?

why , what did the skit suggest the traveller community are like

DarkJager · 04-10-2008 10:32am

I had the misfortune of seeing it myself...this is what our licence fee pays for??? Whoever or whatever that thing was, it had the most annoying helium baby bastard voice on it which made me put the tv on mute. Not to mention the amount of cringing it induced and even then not a single bit of it was remotely funny.

Not one single bit.

Sam Kade · 04-10-2008 12:06pm

During the intro Kenny said that he was going to be talking about what to do if you had a 40 year mortgage and no job. I ended up watching the whole show to see this as it was at the end, all I saw were three idiots telling us things about the resession that everybody already knows and none of them mentioned what to do if you have a mortgage and no job.

The minute she started running on the treadmill and her tits started hopping Pat said we will take a break It looked as if he was afraid that her tits would pop out on air.

Thought so too. Looked like they might escape from their cups and bounce around on the floor.

tintin67 · 04-10-2008 8:13pm

I can only suggest that any outraged members of the travelling community refuse to pay their licence fees. Perhaps Pavee Point could organise this? If every traveller refused to cough up this year, just think of the millions RTE would lose.....

callaway92 · 04-10-2008 8:20pm

Ah youd still do her though

isn't kennys contract supposed to be up soon? i think his radio show is quite good and sometimes great but he is stiff as a plank on tv. as they say- he has a face for radio. i think miriam o callaghan is the natural choice to succeed him. oh lovely,lovely miriam:p

Oh no not her, Kenny is bad but that would be going from the frying pan and into the fire.

lostexpectation · 05-10-2008 11:49am

i gather kathlyn lynch got her start in 'gay caberat' you don't have to be talented or funny, just stick a dress on that seemingly is funny, and that amuses the trashy gay type, its like shirly temple bar,he's simply not witty like lily savage, hes just a man with dress on, kathlynn lnych is female drag artist. you suppsoed to enjoy the crapness of it apparently.

You forgot to mention the one key requirement in making in 'gay cabaret' is that when you put the dress on you have to look like a man in a dress.... so Katherine amply fits the bill.

now if SHE was runnin on the treadmill with her bits-a-bouncing that WOULD be something......:eek: and she could have Pat as her gimp

TJJP · 06-10-2008 11:05pm

Just suffered the first two minutes of the repeat. Why can I never find the remote when I really need it.. Katherine Lynch was woeful, Pat was a plank as usual... utter crap.
