    I'd have a quick look in the TV forum, probably hiding in there somewhere :)

    I met him once, he wasn't nice. He took my newspaper. I wouldn't bother looking for his thread.

    I heard he's off to fight for Hamas, Israelis won't know if he's stuttering or firing a machine gun

    He's barred out of quite a few city centre pubs for similar behaviour. But mainly its for getting into arguments that someone else wants to solve physically.

    Think what you like about Phil Hogan, now about a EU Commissioner, but I believe he (Hogan against Browne) is taking a case against for defamation. On the face of it Hogan is going to take a lot of Money from TV3.

    It seems that Browne has never learned from previous lessons and now going to cost TV3 a substantial amount of money.

    Browne as a lecturer in Journalism should get his act together and teach his students how to avoid defamation claims, God knows he should know enough about it given how much he has to pay out in the past.

    Anything that threatens the continued existence of that Daily Mail style TV channel is a good thing in my book.

    Phil Hogan may be an awful politician, but if he takes a cut out of Vincent Browne and TB3, I might just reconsider my stance on his ability to do anything right.

    I heard he shares a desk with someone else at TV3 and messily eats chicken wings at that desk.

    It's ok. They found it in a skip and cleaned it up a bit. I think they filmed the whole thing - it's gonna be on this autumn for a five part mini-series. Alan Hughes has been pencilled in as the presenter.

    The desk will also be appearing with Vincent when he comes back. The obligatory silent guest on the far right that says very little.

    Talks also ongoing about a presenting spot on Xpose.

    And the occasional stuttered outing for the twittering machine. With obligatory old-boys pally giggling after a pointless heated discussion.

    Breaking News: The desk has just been photographed leaving Lillies with Alan Hughes, Robbie Keane & Colm 'the gooch' Cooper,
    when contacted this morning, the desk had no comment.

    Are we talking about the political or geographical position of the desk here? :D
