    I'm really enjoying it.

    God, it's been a while since I've been able to say that about an RTE programme.

    Feels like a christmas show tbh, but I'm enjoying it too! Loving whoever's doing the captions...

    What were you expecting, The Shawshank Redemption.

    Its not to be taken seriously...

    Have to say i really enjoyed it.

    Some fantastic momories there, from early Den years to Zig and Zag...

    I'll be buying the DVD, bita nostalgia if nothing else!

    some great clips there, unfortunately tainted by the post darcy stuff where Dustin's voice changed and every thing got Louis Walshed.

    I echo others - some great memories. Prefer Dustin's voice now to the early one - being more high-pitched makes it funnier IMO. They never featured his Christmas single with Zig & Zag, which I absolutely loved at the time (1990 I think) - not so much now, but for nostalgia value alone...

    Dustin can actually be one funny ****er - ya can't beat a bit of Dub wit, I've got to admit. ;)

    I particularly enjoyed his over-zealous use of the phrase "mot", which you just don't hear enough of. :)

    Plus

    Zig & Zag "Brits"
    Chris DeBurg " 'Songwriter' "

    Thought it was very funny. As someone said above, didn't think I'd be saying that about an RTE show. Think that's the first full program I've watched on RTE in years.

    A true star! Have the ultimate respect for him since he parodied the sheer crapness of Eurovision! :D

    Dustin Rocks! :)

    Agree with other posters that it was well worth watching. Any Dustin fans who missed it should click on the RTE player link to the programme in Joliegood post above mine - you won't be disappointed.
