    Some people really don't get that if you stand in the background when someone is being interviewed on TV - you will look like an attention seeking fu*kwit.



    -Such as that on RTE at the Races today

    Jealous? Take a look at RTE now..I'm sure you'll see for yourself.

    They don't mind, because they're attention seeking f*ckwits. In fact, starting this thread you've given them exactly what they want

    Any time Enda Kenny is talking outside the dail he usually has the front bench standing behind him like the young fellows after a championship game on RTE 2.

    Like that guy that fell on the ice into the wall on rte news after christmas?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 426 ✭✭poodles


    No no more like a horse trainer being interviewed and people in the background looking like simpletons starring at the camera....then getting on their phone and waving like an idiot.

    Sometimes the camera man will pan or zoom to get these morans outta the picture but they enivitably hover back in




  • I love when people do this. If I ever get the oportunity I will definitely do this. It's so stupid it's cool.. You also have to ring someone. I'm gonna ring me mam.

    me: "ma look im on telly!" and then wave. Then I ring everyone else I know, smiling and waving like a fool. Oh me.

    Brillant.

    Classic....!and you just know when he steps out of screen that he's just thinking 'what do I do next'...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,294 ✭✭✭rainbowdrop


    I was actually on a programme that was shown on RTE last week (Stuck For Words - about adults that cannot read or write*). I appeared on screen for approx 5 whole seconds**

    Saw some cameramen filming on the main street of my home town a few weeks ago, but didn't have a clue what it was for. Saw the fcukers pointing the camera in my direction, and I very nearly broke into a sprint to get away from them:p Turned on the TV the other night, and there I was..... Morto!!
    You'd want to be some mog to intentionally stand waving at a camera, trying to get on TV........


    * I'd like to clarify that the programme was not about me, I CAN read and write:D

    ** If anyone want my autograph, feel free to PM me:D

    In my more immature days, I was walking down a street in Brisbane where there was a reporter and cameraman filming something.

    I wandered past and innocently flipped the bird in the direction of the camera in the hope that the editors might not see it and it would make the news.

    The bloke with the camera spotted me however and stopped recording. They then had to start from scratch....so I did the same thing again :D

    It was three times before the novelty wore off and I continued on my way.

    The Galway races are the best for people sticking their head in the shot.

    It's mostly all men, let loose from home for a few days & they try to drink their own weight in alcohol each day/ night, which is fairly easy to see from the red heads on them sweating away like a priest in a schoolyard.

    I love those shots, especially the ones when someone pretends to pick their nose.

    It's so childish it's funny!
