The Leader's Debate

starbelgrade

Anyone looking forward to the political five-way?

Any predictions for it?

Any chance that Inda Kenny's prosthetic skin will melt under the studio lights, to reveal that he is actually a cyborg?

Will Michael Martin do any more impersonations of foreign people?

Roll on 9.30.

Gilmore and Adams will crumble, Gormley will be ignored by all, Kenny and Martin will say as little as possible for fear of a f*ck up

Son Of A Vidic

Enda feels safer in a group of five apparently, but hopefully he might be forced to think/answer off script. That prospect alone could be pretty entertaining.

Liars debate. Supprised Ollie Rehn isn't moderating the fucking thing. Who elected that cnut again..............

Agricola

It'll be interested to watch Inda try to be spontaneous. That should be entertaining.

TeddyTedson

On Enda to end them all.

PeterIanStaker

I'm going to watch a few episodes of Shameless instead.

Sunnyisland

I will be watching,They have an audience which can ask questions also it will be an open debate, should be good entertainment.

If he gets asked an akward question he might be so spontaneous that he'll combust.

I really hope an audience member asks him about the Chinese accent thingy.

And I really hope said audience member is Chinese.

EverEvolving

So so looking forward to a nice romantic night watching the leaders debate

Keeping with the valentines theme me thinks as Michael is the best spoken of the bunch he will come up smelling of roses.

I want to see Michael Martin walk out to this

starbelgrade

It'd be funny if he did the whole debate in a Chinese accent.

Hazys

Leaders debate eh, must be pretty high in importance then, can we call it "The Master Debate"

the groutch

still don't know why Gormless is there, the party probably won't even exist this time next month

Judgement Day

And it's being compered by Pat "The Plank" Kenny who gets paid more than the 5 of them put together - a recipe for an early night. :rolleyes:

i thought you'd be a fan considering he is your uncle.

starbelgrade

I don't think people are giving Michael Martin the credit he deserves.

OK, so he messed up on the radio today, but it's not like he's going to go on the Frontline dressed as a Sumo & eating dumplings.

Hi No So Dum.

I can't see this ending well for SF with Adams in the hot-seat.. I'm actually cringing pre-emptively for him.

Hope Gilmore has done his homework on the subjects likely to be raised and left looking like a fox caught in the headlights.

TeddyTedson

Expect them all to try gang up on Enda going forward in this current climate.

starbelgrade

Fucking hell... I thought Kraftwerk were on stage for a minute.

ArtSmart

fair play. this audience is THE REAL IRELAND.
going by this guy.
LOL

this looks like nonsense.

The charisma off of Kenny, jesus my pants nearly fell off. :pac:

starviewadams

Jaysus they picked the wrong guy to ask the opening question!

starbelgrade

That was painful. At this rate, the audience will only get to ask 3 questions.

How do FF get away with pretending they weren't in government for the last 14 years? It's beyond belief.

Happy Gilmore reminds me of Mr.Mackay off South Park. He looks like his head would shrink by half it's size if he loosened his tie.

Yeah.. the whole live audience thing is a bad idea. There'll be nothing but a load of pandering tonight. They should have kept the sob stories off tonight.

I aged about ten years waiting for Finian to ask his question.
Poor man, I thought he was going to start crying.

Yes and I don't blame him for that. I hope and pray my son never has to emigrate.
