"Ryan, Ryan, we can't get any guests for this week's show?"

*slaps hands on table*

"Round up the usual suspects."

Welsh Megaman

Ah, Spandau Ballet...soundtracking the awkward first high school dance (circa 1983)!

''Uh...your...hair...smells nice.''

*holds hands*

Brendan, Domhnall & Briain are in a play together in the olympia soon. I presume they're promoting that.

My first introduction to Spandau Ballet was when two of their members inexplicably signed for Melchester Rovers. Roy Race must have been on acid when he made those signings.

On the other hand, I loved A Question of Sport, so I was very pleased to see 'Crazy Horse' Emlyn Hughes come out of retirement.

If Spandau are delayed getting to Donnybrook because of the water protests, they'll have no choice but to go Through The Barricades :cool:

It's less a chat show and more a cosy night in for Ryan and his showbiz buddies.

What's the odds on Tiernan to try and say something very controversial to get some airtime?

Welsh Megaman

Another Python is also on tonight's show

Ol' Donie

FAWLTEH!!

Him and Tubs to do his silly walk

What?
Barely an hour to go, and not a puppy or kitty to be seen anywhere?
I must see if I can do something about this!

Evening y'all!



I have a mental image of Spandau Ballet sitting in the RTE Canteen dressed in all their 'New Romantic Pirate' finery!

That Brian McFadden Toy Show yokey is on 3E.

I think he just spoke to a kid called Rhianna.

Edit: Nay, he spoke to her again. Sounds more like Brianna. Anyway, who gives a f*ck?

Evening folks

Good evening you all.

*Skips to the fridge for wine on my dainty little feet*

JOHN CLEESE IS GOING TO BE ON?

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG They actually have a good guest!

Welsh Megaman

Which one's Brendan?

Ally Dick

Brian is the spit. Domhnall is a red haired imposter

The threads have been merged and the title has been amended to avoid confusion

Good Evening Friends

Harry Angstrom

Evening all.

That play they're in looks like a load of rubbish.

CountyHurler

It reminds me of when they did that "three stages of Elvis" in Father Ted...

In the middle is just after leaving college, on the left is the 30s when your working your way up the career ladder (and a little bit stressed), and on the right is post nervous breakdown, mid life crisis and alcoholism...

ProudDUB

Good Lord, the amount of ginger is BLINDING !!! :eek:

Miss Demeanour

First Friday night in for 5 weeks.....!! Ye havent given away my space I hope!!

I'm just glad it's Gleeson, not Grace or jaysus O'Carroll.

Lady Chatterton

The son sitting beside Tubs is very like his Dad.

Evening all!

This is magic from the two lads:

A lot of people miss a few weeks of Late alate this time of the year. Christmas parties and that.

I think that's where that "It's the most wonderful time of the year" tune originated.

CountyHurler

The irony here being that the three lads came on Tubridy's Late Late to talk about a show that is a farce...

CountyHurler

Ask Brendan did he see the Prime Time special about Aras Attracta, that should ignite the fuse for another rant about the health service...

curioser

I've been trying to figure out for the last few years if Brendan's Orson Welles persona is deliberate.

Ally Dick

I can't speak more highly about St Francis Hospice. My mother in law died there 4 years ago and they took great care of her

Evening everybody. Are we all tucked into our blankies now for the evening?

I have seen the Walworth Farce in the Project Arts Centre in Dublin's Temple Bar with my secondary school class a few years ago. It is a very funny and quite a serious play to go and see live for yourselves. You will get even more enjoyment of it with the Gleesons playing as I only went to see unknown actors doing the play live at the time.

And I went to it only four years ago which I felt have flown by.

Meangadh

I don't like Domhnall's hair. He's actually quite cute, really like him in About Time.

Lady Chatterton

We're truly blessed to have a wonderful hospice in Limerick - Milford Hospice, they provide home care services in Clare. It's not until your family needs to avail of their service that you realise how incredible the work they do is. The HSE could learn a thing or two from them.

Ol' Donie

I know I say it every time they (or some combination thereof) are on, but these lads always come across as really sound.

Domhnall without hair reminds me of Woogie from 'There's Something About Mary'

Harry Angstrom

Joe Duffy went along too see Calvary, thinking it was a film about General Custer.
