Skid

On TubTalk this week, RTE presents ...


Mia Farrow Actress, Human Rights Activist for UNICEF, and former partner of both Woody Allen and Frank Sinatra.

Sugar Ray Leonard Boxing Legend. Winner of World Titles at 5 different weights. He is promoting his autobiography 'The Big Fight'.

Marian Finucane Grossly overpaid RTE Weekend Radio Presenter. Earned €513,270 from RTE in 2009.

Sinéad O'Connor performs a song from her new Album 'How About I Be Me (And You Be You)'

Conal Gallen who is a Comedian from Ballybofey, Co.Donegal, and has had his own series on TG4, will be telling jokes.

The Notre Dame Marching Band are over for St.Patrick's Day. They will be doing their thing for us.

Full Set, a Trad band, will be dropping in for a few tunes.


Also some St. Patrick's Day messages from Irish people living abroad, and some upbeat examples of the Irish Entrepeneurial spirit.


Ah no, come back, it'll be great honestly. Sure you can go out on Saturday Night instead, that'll be the night to be out ...

Sinead O'Connor performed on Graham Norton a couple of weeks ago and all I can say is she was absolutely incredible.

No doubt the RTE sounds guys will fúck that up though.

RoundyMooney

One of these days, someone is going to start next weeks LLS thread, before this weeks one is broadcast.

It will be like dividing by zero or something!

telekon

Wow, two world famous people in Mia Farrow and Sugar Ray Leonard. The LLS does it two weeks in a row! That's more like it...

Particularly looking forward to seeing Sugar Ray Leonard. Extremely talented guy, an absolute gent and always makes for an interesting interview. He might even get a minute or two more than Jerry Springer did if we are lucky...

Welsh Megaman

And how was YOUR week, Ryan?

Great line-up this week

Mia Farrow's mother, the actress Maureen O'Sullivan was born in Boyle, Co. Roscommon. That's the Irish connection sorted

Enjoy!

grey_so_what

I actually know who these guests are!..That's a first for a while..:)

Cardinal Richelieu

Marion Finucane- won't be one mention of her paycheck, just the documentary about her late friend Nuala O'Faoloin that Marion produced. When has Tubs ever asked a hard question of the various RTE co-workers that he had on the show?

grey_so_what

The Appreciation Club of Montrose has a life long membership - even when the members "retire" because there is always a "nixer" comeback to be had.....so you can't afford to "dirty" your bib by asking "awkward" questions.....

Skid

I don't know if anyone saw Tubridy's recent sketch on 'The Republic of Telly'.

I thought it was good, maybe a bit close to the truth

The Late Late is tripe and don't watch it. It actually became unwatchable with all the nobodies it had on week in and out.

grey_so_what

Sketch = Reality?.......Loved it!

"Miriam gets all the best guests"......"2nd nicest man in Ireland".....hahah....:)

He was surprisingly good in that. He could make a good little actor, our Ryan...

The sound quality on RTE's live shows from permanent studios is consistently unforgiveably bad.
Sinéad is performing the same song tonight, it'll be interesting to see how the sound compares to that performance on Graham's show.

I hope the audience prize is a good one and you have a great night.

DEFTLEFTHAND

Hmm not too bad a line up really, I might give it a watch tonight.

JP Liz V1

Will Ryan get knocked out by Sugar Ray

mike65

He can stand behind one of his legs and vanish!

24yearslater

Watch Homelands on the other side instead - really good drama.

Skid

There will also be music tonight from The Notre Dame Marching Band and Irish Trad band 'Full Set'

I hope its not the Full band! Come on Tubs we don't want the band, give us the Cheerleaders.

who's the illness this week?

Cicero

Chances of all talk of Mia's relationship with Sinatra and Allen off limits? ...100%

One of the Notre Dame Drummers had a nasty cold last week, he wasn't sure if he was going to be able to make the trip.

Kayly

Hasnt Mia Farrow been on at least twice before? I hate when the same guests keep coming back...

JonathanAnon

I bet you thought Tubridy couldnt get more annoying, didnt you..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JCL3va8UjY

Bonus points for guessing which one is the real Tubridy.. What Tubridy would actually say..

"I hear that you're 216th generation Irish"..
"How does it feel looking at that movie clip there"..
"So you were sitting in the doctor's surgery, when you got the bad news"..
"I gonna go up in to the audience and make a big fkn tool of myself again"..

Cicero

Well, it's either that or the plank's ..."so, you're rich...tell us...how rich..."...

twirlagig

Howye all! 'Top of the morning' to ye, Begorrah!

Just sitting back and ready for the show! Is it just me or is it freeeezing tonight??! :eek:

The thing about this is ,our dear ryan gets a chance to do something he enjoys,playing around acting..being told what to say ,and how to say it,being told what to do and how to do it..

So it comes across fine.

The late late show is actually the opposite of this.

dublinman1990

Hello there, line-up seems ok tonight.

Diddler1977

Happy St. Patrick's y'all!

JonathanAnon

ffs.. St Patrick's Day and Tubhead has an AMERICAN band playing the theme..

Cicero

Good opening...

Suzie4

Great camera work there lads.

Lady Chatterton

Sure celebrating St. Patrick's day was more or less invented in America.

Lighten up, Jonny

HappyBalance

No tie. Remember Pat didn't also near end of his tenure

Ally Dick

DLB wearing casual gear tonight......well, as casual as he ever gets

JonathanAnon

Suzie4
