    The BAI will make a judgement in due course.
    If it's ruled that Ray overstepped the mark, the judgement and it's reasons will be read out before a show.

    What will happen to Ray? Very little publicly.... Although a slap on the wrists in private should be in order.
    If it can be resolved first between the complainant and rte it won't go to bai iirc.


    Edit. Freudian slip. I had written tv3 above. It was like trash tv (aka tv3)! I expected more from rte.

    dunno....i reckon his team and RTE were in on it....looked like an attempt at being edgey!! eg "Stacked" who even uses that word....clearly it was a well thoought out i'll conceived attempt at a set up piece.

    17/18 year old used say it approx 18 years ago. So the production/writing team are obviously aged mid thirties but their brains are still in their mid teens.

    It may have been planned that he say it different. But because he did not write it or "believe" in it or "own it" (as the americans would say) it came out worse.


    For example, Graham Norton has come out with plenty of "naughtiness" and innuendo on his show. But because he owns it, and it is a natural thing to him (i.e. you know he believes it, you can see him saying it), plus he says it with a naughty twinkle in his eye it comes across fine.


    Ray Darcy, Graham Norton you are NOT. RTE, do you hear that?

    It wasn't his idea to do the jack Nicholson thing either. He'd want to cop on and either start saying no to stupid ideas or "owning them" when he doesn't say no.
