    (To Mods; Dunno is this is the right place, if not please move, cheers ;) )

    According to TodayFMs facebook page, the are suggesting (well they say strong rumour), that GiftGrub will be on Vincent Browne this evening...

    I personally think this would the worth the price of admission any day of the week, especially as Mario does a meane(er) Vincent impression. Here's the link to the page, not that it says anything else. This could well be worth a watch, especially if he does Enda

    In your opinion?

    I'll agreee some of his characters are dated but IMO his Michael Flatley is very good and as the OP says he does a mean VB. Sold out tour of the country also says he's still doing something right.

    Vincent has been talking about a Joan Burton interview tonight or tomorrow although Joan Burton has said she knows nothing of this. Surely he is not going to do it with Giftgrub instead. That would be cheeky.

    Sure there'd be no difference. Any of the Gift grub type shows on the radio just do Joan Burtons voice. It's a caricature in itself, no need to mess with it. :)

    I'm an Irish expat.. please, what is this Gift Grub you speak of?... I'm guessing its something satirical? :confused:

    No time for gift grub either and Maybe they should have Ray Foley modding these debates. Would love to see him play his game 'ah, yeah, ok' with the party leaders.

    I used to love gift grub and still like it but it's not what it used to be. I think it's gotten a little bit preachy with political messages. I preferred it when it wasn't so deep with meaning and just plain funny parodies. But I guess the whole country has gone insane with politics this last year, hopefully after this election we can get back to living, be it living with feck all monies :P

    I thought she was only going to be released from Eamon Gilmore's cellar after the election?:confused:

    Obviously, as I said "IMO".

    You however made a statement of fact.

    It's comedy so not everyone's going to find the same thing funny, your opinion is it's not funny, mine is different.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 265 ✭✭nosey rosie


    Yeah, Non Nation is a rip off of Gift Grub.
    Except even less funny :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,209 ✭✭✭Cypher_sounds

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,108 ✭✭✭RachaelVO

    Well according to tv3 listings it's on at 23.05

    I still reckon it'll be well worth a watch
