    Coming up on the show this week, Domhnall Gleeson takes us behind the scenes of his recent Hollywood blockbusters Harry Potter and True Grit. Weather girls Evelyn Cusack and Klara Finkele discuss this week's floods in Dublin and predict what's ahead for us this Winter! Ray D'Arcy will be in with Gary Kirwan who's lost 12 stone with the help of Ray's radio show and they're both taking part in Monday's Dublin Marathon. Music on the night will be performed by Galway brothers The Kanyu Tree.

    Yawn

    One has a MSc in Physics and the other a PhD in Meteorology - and RTE describes them as a pair of "weather girls".

    Oliver callan is a second rate wannabe. Hes writing is really poor, in comparison to Gift Grub he doesnt rate!

    Completely agree. Mario Rosenstock has that whole area squared off. Callan is just like a poor relation - OTT impressions and very lacklustre scripting.

    I don't find Mario Rosenstock funny at all tbh. I'd much prefer Callan.

    Something doesn't seem quite right about the show tonight.

    The jokes at the start are so bad, when they get so little response, he actually said "well, I liked that one anyway". Cringe!!!

    Does yer one Klara have a gold tooth or something?

    Great so we are paying him and giving him another slot to take the piss out of Paul Galvin. Keep this up and Galvin might have a case to sue RTE.

    Briing out Paul Galvin, let them sort out their differences here and now.

    I can see how coming out as gay kind of puts paid to any rumours that he is homophobic, but didn't Galvin get pissed off because Callan was repeatedly implying he was gay? And he claims not to be.

    I can't see how Callan being gay gives him a free pass to defame Paul Galvin.

    The most offensive thing about Callan is that he is not funny....

    He is more guilty at not being able to write terribly funny comedy.

    Wierd.

    I just switched on for the last ten seconds of the coming out speech before the Michael d part.

    Was that really awkward??? (or was that because I just came in on the end of it?)




    Ps. That Galvin fella is a complete tool. Fashionista me @rse

    Well in his defence he can do impressions of people in the present government unlike that mate of Joe Duffy on unfunny Friday that is flogging P Flynn and Charlie McCreevy impressions still.

    Met Eireann segement was weird. Evelyn Cusack seemed bitchy towards her German colleague and Brendan was rude and anti-German. Bit odd.

    Are you saying YOU want to come out, seems so.

    Oliver Callan v Paul Galvin is one of those arguments where you want to be on neither side ...

    Having said that, fair play to Callan for coming out, it can't be easy. But it was the wrong context in which to do it.

    The satire itself is very weak.

    That show could have been sponsored by the Vintners Federation. It would make you want to head down to the pub on a Saturday Night :(
