    They played highlights of all the best things that happened on the show and nothing happened except for the ginger from Eastenders playing guitar.

    Thought that was an indictment of how poor the guests on the show were alright. Very odd person to show on the "best of shows" - not a very well known/popular/talented actor.

    Have a funny feeling that one of the Seoige's will be on The Afternoon Show next year, as it seems to be getting at least one more season.

    When ITV axed a lot of its afternoon programming-quizes, chat shows etc.-and replaced them with Inspector Morse re-runs, the re-runs got higher ratings. RTE take note: there's no need to throw good money after bad feeding the egos of x-list presenters.

    I for one would like to welcome the return of Murder She Wrote at 4.20 next Monday in place of Seoige. :D

    Unpleasant. It would just lose viewers. Blathnaid is still pushing for Sheana 'vertigo' Keane to be back in the summer with a special barbeque themed Afternoon Show from the roof of RTE. Make sure you don't fall off, love.

    Only reason TV3 and RTÉ keep Judge Judy and The Bill on at 5 and 5:30 respectively. When they did try to move them the viewers left. :)

    The thought of Grainne taking over Prime Time if Miriam gets the Late Late gig terrifies me

    I have heard, on pretty good authority, that she's incapable of going off script, if its not written down for her by a producer, forget about it.

    Not what you want for the country's main current affairs programme

    have heard the exact same thing

    Grainee interviewing Marie Hoctor should be fun then. It might take 23 takes to get it done.

    But that doesn't answer my question :D I want a number.

    I mean if I divide the total number of episodes by the number of years of the air will this give me the answer I am looking for.

    264/13 = 20 minus the number of times Jessica was a suspect which was about twice = 18.

    But is that 18 repeat this year?????

    They should treat RTE HQ like the Big Brother house, 24/7 live uncensored feeds. That would be entertaining, all that intrigue and violence. Like the Truman Show on acid.

    It's really wierd. Apparently RTE are keeping the fatter wun on for some other slot but they did say they probably will work with the slightly less fat and imo slightly better looking wun in the future.

    Seems to me should be the other way round but you know RTE, stick with what you know etc etc.

    Any hoo, I think the fat fuddy duddy wun should be put reading the news, she was arguably ok at that on the Irish sky news.

    You'd have to wonder does the younger less plump one regret doing a runner on the husband to make it in the showbiz paradise that is RTE studios.......

    Although he is a tv producer so she got her tuppence worth from him I'd say.



    16:25 Murder, She Wrote
    Mystery series. An airport accident puts Jessica in hospital with a cast on her leg-but nothing can hold back the writer's instincts when a murder is committed....

    Money well spent !

    It only seems like yesterday when Grainne texted her resignation to TV3 before she grew extra long fingernails to claw her way up the greasy pole. Unfortunately the grease got too much for the extra weight in the end.:(

    Did Murder She Wrote only start yesterday because when I saw the start of the show it was a recap from a previous episode.

    I think that she was in the far-east on a bit of a break.

    I bet there's been some whooping and dancing going on at TV3 over the last few days.:eek:
