I know, I don't believe it has the same great coke taste either.

Another really good show from Brendan... Mischievously asked Charlotte Church about Gavin Henson... He's some fecker..

Come on RTE, Tubs' time is up.. He's had his go, now give Brendan a go..

cofy

And now over to Graham Norton:D

Welsh Megaman

Whilst I respect Charlotte for 'doing her own thing' and trying something left-field, she just won't be taking seriously by the likes of the NME - so ingrained is the image of her in the tabloids and as the 'Voice Of An Angel'.

Anyone who wants a Kahuna burger (and a boogie in about 15 mins) should flip over to Sky Atlantic +1.....

Pulp Fiction.......


***totters off to put on Mia wig***..........

Night Night all!!!!!!!.........:):):)

To be fair Charlotte seems like a lovely girl, with a great sense of humour.
Best of luck to her, she can well afford to be so 'expressive'

I've said this before but I'll say it again .........

If Brendan invited some of his past competition winners on to the programme some night, we could have a seriously great show on our hands, most of the competition winners sound like real characters

Charlotte wants to be a David Bowie chameleon. What kills her is that she has the voice, but she doesn't have the songs or charisma. She's spent years veering from opera to frothy pop "Crazy Chick" to rock to this weird indie stuff. She'll never be happy

Sounds like an average Friday night in the Television forum!

After watching that boy on SNS, I wouldn't be able for another dose of misery with 'Song for a Raggy Boy'

Exactly. Plus it didn't help that Brendan asks her to sing 'Pie Jesu' when she is trying to distance herself from her past!

I was surprised that she did it. I expected her to tell him to f@ck off

I have to say that Donal Walsh is an inspiration and it is heartbreaking to see his circumstances. One of the most impressive people I've seen on tv ever. A true hero.

(Sorry to post this one at the end of the thread but I really wanted to put this post in all the same.) Thanks.

I 100% agree with you.

Donal Walsh, excellent interview, inspirational guy, well handled by Brendan. Fast forward through daithi ....john waters ....nonsense.
If the final act were a new band I would have been very impressed. I thought charlotte church was great, looks like she's enjoying it. The only thing she got wrong was looking too bjorky.( who i guess is inspiring her)

i agree, he made his case tonight! I let it go this time that he called vomit "vom".

Just watching the show now.

The interview with Donal Lynch was well handled. It was a good idea to keep his parents in the audience and let the lad have the stage to himself.

I'm not too keen on the logic that his incurable physical illness should serve as a motivation to those who may suffer from mental illnesses with many seeing suicide as the only cure.

The causes of suicide not as straight forward as that but I can't knock the lad's intentions.

Got a bit annoyed when he started on about God, and how this God has helped him through such a difficult time. What kind of fúcked up in the head god would inflict cancer on a child to begin with and take him from his family at such a young age?

But thats for another day. Each to their own.



There's Daithí O'Sé, who's yer wan?
I often see Daithí around Galway and got talking to him a couple of times in the past. Sound oul skin, although I still think he slightly exaggerates his Kerry accent on TV.



John Waters.

Sort you hair out.

Lapin

Just as I was giving out about God in the post above along comes the Pope Benny fan club in the shape of John Waters.

Although I kind of agree with him in that everyone is the centre of their own universe, I don't think that has anything to do with some artificial makey uppy magician demanding worship.



Speaking of worship, what in the hell was that noise Charlotte Church was making?

Is she only 27?

Dangerous age to be a musician.

Donal Lynch was just exceptional. Just caught it tonight. There's talk that his uplifting message won't reach teenagers in danger. Well perhaps not. But it moved me and uplifted older and generally non religious cynic that I am. I thought also Brendan was excellent in his role, sensitive but constantly probing despite that.

For a so-called misery slot and one which poured tears down faces there was such a very positive message from Donal. He's just an amazing young man. As his father said he is a giant.

Donal Walsh died this afternoon. No other details just yet

RIP Donal Walsh, and condolences to his family and friends. A remarkable young man who achieved a lot in his all too short time.
