What the hell is going in RTE? Why aren't they appearing on the flag-ship talk show?

It's a load of tosh after what they did last week.

A discussion on what constitutes homophobia? From that shower of yellow bellied bastards?


My *rse.

I usually dive behind the couch during the LLS, although I feel I may have to save my gymnastics for tomorrow night!

Big dopey Brendan smirking each time he says 'Pussy' and avoiding anything to do with Sotchi and the 'Gay' thing. I expect an intelligent debate

Tubirdy is ****e, but The LLS should have got this.

Mr E

Pussy Riot?

SkidX - that's your cue!

Tubridy's guest is a country music superstar who is huge in Ireland. I am of course, talking about Mike Denver!

From Denver, Leitrim?

I wonder what will happen if the Pussy Riot members say that Putin is a homophobe. will they pay him off too?

"first ever European chat show appearance," according to the RTE website and it's The Saturday Night Show they appear on. Has the Late Late Show ever been less relevant?

B'O'C can talk to girls without blushing. Gives him an edge.

That was one of the weirdest interviews I have ever seen. O'Connor didn't seem very comfortable at all. He tried to lighten it a bit but that wasn't really well received. They almost ran off the set!

Given the near lockdown the liberal 'lites have on what should/should not be deemed acceptable speech it must be passing strange to have their own PC corrective flung in their faces.

Could someone tell RTE and the SNS that these adult women are not "girls". So patronising to speak to them like that especially after all they have been through. If they had a problem with the greeting of a kiss, what would they make of the "girl" title?

What an embarrassment - that O'Connor chap seemed to have done almost no research.

His questions to the women were lazy, cliche-ridden and petty.

Won't be seeing him getting involved in serious news journalism any time soon.
