    You'll notice that he didnt take the hard line with the under 150k civil servants that he also normally takes, cos he knows that wouldnt turn a fair percentage of the audience against him.

    He's a brother of Fergal keane who is a news reporter for RTE, mostly DriveTime. I listen to him from 12-1 every day rather than listen to Ronan Collins on Radio One.

    I'll bet after a week listening to him spout off in the same manner, you'll go back to the bould Ronan :D

    No, no he isn't. He does have a brother called Fergal who is an award winning journalist employed by the BBC.

    RTE's Fergal Keane is fairly litigious about being confused with the other Fergal Keane.

    ooops sorry, I thought I heard him mention this before. But when I listened to DriveTime's Fergal Keane I used to think he sounded nothing like him.

    I didn't know that but just googled him, he's got a very impressive record.

    I'd say Blathnaid took fright when she saw the posts on here yesterday.

    Jaysus that Eamon Keane with his unfeasibly large head, that song OMG what was he thinking; what were RTE thinking to let him do it (other than 'let him make a complete tool of himself')

    Blathnaid got off very light here compared to how she's regularly slated on another site. I'm just glad she wasn't on last night, I cannot stand her and that's putting it lightly.

    Was this BOC last show?

    I think Craig Doyle is taking over for a few episodes and then Gerry Ryan and whoever has the best ratings gets the job full time

    Say it isn't so! How many shots at being a chatshow host are they going to give Ryan? FFS, goes to show once you're in you're in. How many other TV stations would keep giving you chances after you fail so dismally time and time again?

    Won't somebody think of the children? Gerry Ryan will eat them!

    Somebody posted here before that Brendan was getting eight weeks and then Craig Doyle was getting eight weeks. Not sure about Ryan, but the other lad has been expected to take over the reins.... Pity they are ignoring the elephant in the room... i.e. that Tubridy needs to be replaced...

    If what they are doing is running the potential presenters off against each other, then they should give the Friday night job to whoever wins.
