Weak enough guest list - Can Brendan O'Connor make it an entertaining show?

If this is too much for you all, More 4 are showing the Secret History of the Eurovision at 9 pm.

I think that's the same documentary which was on RTE1 last Monday, although it's unlikely to feature Marty Whelan doing the voiceover.

Ann Widdecombe seems to be doing the rounds at the moment, last Saturday night she appeared on Piers Morgan's True Lives programme, I watched it and it was surprisingly interesting and entertaining, Widdlecombe can be quite witty and sarcastic so she was well able for Piers!

However, at this stage I'm a bit tired of listening former "Strictly" stars telling us how life changing the programme was for them. It is dancing, it is not Everest ffs. (And in the case of poor Ann, it wasn't even dancing).

Fair play to her for doing it though, at least she was up for the laugh.

I cannot stand Ann widdecombe, she was funny for one night of strictly but then just embarrassing.

Oh I love that film but I've seen it over and over. Absolutely brilliant acting from Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster.

Spent half the day on the roof trying to find out what was wrong with my digital TV signal... and this is what I get... The same interviewee and interview as Tubridy did only on a Saturday night..

Lady Chatterton

Ann might need a Garda escort after this interview!

hondasam

I love brendan

Skid

Brendan O'Connor is on shaky ground throwing blame around for the Irish Economic disaster.

He did his bit by cheerleading in the Sunday Independent every week.

Lady Chatterton

There is a lot of "coming out", is this the Jeremy Kyle show?

I think she hit the nail on the head.

Skid

Interview has got better since they moved on from the obligatory 'Strictly' chat.

JONJO THE MISER

What a Bitch.

True, but we don't like being put down by the English.

JonathanAnon

He's pissed her off.. it's just got interesting.. Good man Brendan..

hondasam

she will walk off

bitch

Lapin

She's winning though.

SuperInfinity

I think she made some good points. I'm tired of people trying to blame everything on the church all the time.

Lady Chatterton

Fair play to her, she is true to herself.

JonathanAnon

Oh for the love of god.. He's asked her about her sex life... :eek: :eek:

baldbear

She's taking no sh*t from O'Connor. Fair play to her...

In a Charlie Sheen type of way maybe.

She's mad as a box of frogs.

take everything

Don't mean to be mean what possible interest/relevance has this woman to anything, not to mention an Irish audience.

Yes, because she is the most famous virgin in Britain. (By her own admission)

I don't know about that,

She had good answers to all of his questions, even if she was caught on the hop.

I'd say they both came out of that interview well, a score draw.

A score draw it is then.

Poor Cliff, he'd want to get on Strictly fairly lively if he wants to regain his title.

JonathanAnon

Fair play to Brendan for giving us a bit of entertainment.. Few probing, risqué questions brings a bit of excitement.. especially on a live show..

The skinny fella would have still been showing clips when Brendan asked her about her sex life...

jos28

Nah, I think Anne won. She would have wiped the floor with Brendan if she was given the chance. I have listened to her on various debates before and she is one capable woman.

DLB would still be enquiring about her Irish grandfather.

Fair play to O'Connor for pulling it together in the end.
The interview was heading for disaster at one stage.

For a woman used to getting grilled by Paxman, he had Widdecombe on the ropes for a while.

That wasn't a brave question, she is always being asked about her sex life (or the lack of one).

JonathanAnon

It was going okay until that stupid rap in the middle...

the west wing

I've a fair pain listening to them!

Lapin

If you want a reason why so many people from outside Dublin dislike the Dubs.

Take one look at these muppets.

445279.ie

That was brutal :eek:

SugarHigh

He chords of that song were ripped from somewhere but I can't think where

Lady Chatterton

I used to fancy him when I was a teenager

JonathanAnon

Jesus he sounds just like Bono... Bono without the money and the talent..

SuperInfinity

This guy can't be for real.

Help.... meeeee...... :eek:

Unbelievable sexual tension between these two
