    Doyle is a bit wooden but he also allows himself to be taken the piss out of a fair bit and takes it very well.

    That adds to the banter overall.

    Nevertheless, show is certainly not a patch on what it was.

    nah, he's crap, and what has got on him tonight?!!

    fb have disabled my anti-doyler page from making posts, even though none of them were abusive and were simply my expression of opinion and those of the page members.. what a joke

    RTE have cancelled it.

    It went downhill fast when Dara left and just got worse and worse. Doyle managed to bring the standard up a bit but nowhere near the O Briain days.

    I'm glad they cancelled it tbh, hopefully now they will make a good comedy/current affairs show similar to Mock the Week or HIGNFY.

    Colmo, my good man, I'll need a citation for that one.. I cant find anything about it online.. They needed to change the format, but it was certainly had the bones of a good show..

    Thank God for that. I cant understand how it has lasted this long, it should have been axed 7 years ago.

    But what will Andrew Maxwell do for a career now?

    I preferred it under O'Briain too, at times it seemed like Delamere was holding the show together. Ah well.

    Good riddence to a crap show, but I'm sure Rte will replace it with some other re-packed muck.

    Hate The Panel - just people laughing at their own jokes which they seem to think were extremely funny

    Don't you remember "Don't Feed The Gondolas"? :eek::eek:
    That was supposed to be RTE's version of HIGNFY but it was rubbish.

    I'm glad The Panel has been axed. It was nothing more than an exercise in ego massaging for terminally unfunny people such as Andrew Maxwell and Neil Delamere.

    I'd like to see RTE axe Republic Of Telly as well. That show is going nowhere fast. I'd love to see a return of Colin Murphy's "The Blizzard Of Odd". A gem of a show.

    Good luck waiting for that.

    RTE's last attempt at a HIGNFY rip off was 'That's all we have time for' with Barry Murphy, Mario Rosenstock and Kevin Myers. It was one of the worst programmes ever broadcast on Television, pure tripe.

    The Panel was decent last year, certainly better than the previous series with David McWilliams.

    It might have ran out of steam in the last few years, but I doubt if it will be replaced with anything better.

    You can boo me as much as you like for this statement but I gave up on this show soon after Dara O'Brien left. He kept the show moving effortlessly and I'd say he created much of the laughs too as well as prompting the funnies from the other panelists.

    I remember when they had Phil Jupitus on it as guest presenter. Halfway through the show he started shouting instead of talking, pointing out that thats all the others were doing. It was one of those moments where all of a sudden it just dawns on you how sh!te something is. I couldnt really watch the show again after that.

    And, Mairead Farrell is just about the least funny, most irritating person that was ever on that show.

    I don't know, I preferred Mairead Farrell to Andrew "I can speak in a funny accent" Maxwell. Although in later years her role seems to have been reduced to "token girl who giggles at Delamare's jokes".
