It wasn't as cringey as I expected, some interesting contributors.

Was expecting this to be embarrassing ..... but it wasnt.

Same as the above, I thought it was going to be real diddley-i sorta usual ****e, but was actual pretty decent.

Richie came across as a bit of a cheeky cockney type chap, not a knob like I thought he was.

Overall, I thought we came off in a good light:)

The repeat is on Sky 1 now. Not too bad at all. Doh

acontadino

decent bit cringe though about why its great to be irish but in fairness the fisherman chap lived in denmark so it wasn't some 'ah sure i never been anywhere else but ireland isnt it feckin great'

irish people are alright, when they're good they're very good.

i sort of like your man whenever i see him. hes ok.

Biggins

Enjoyed it. Recorded it on my hard-drive.
Gonna pass it on to friends who missed it or didn't even know it was on..

Didn't see it, any chance it will be shown on Sky 3?

It is on Sky Anytime. As for Sky 3. No idea.

You have to be a Sky customer for that though, right?

It is true, I do.

Fast forwarded though it out of curiosity on Sky Anytime this morning. I was fairly impressed that they ticked a lot of boxes of what I would consider what Irish culture is.

I watched it last night on Sky Anytime and laughed so much when he was playing hurling...!!

Yes lots have irish ancestors etc but my experience has generally been of the patronising like of the Oirish. Like we do have leprechauns and are drunk on Guinness 24/7. That underlying superiority complex is something that's gonna take yrs to die.

Never ever experienced that.

been to any ireland england matches at wembley?:rolleyes:

not a great time to be irish at all. i'd probably go to a match if we ever played them and bring my massive EU flag just to piss off the BNP types.
