Ha!

Good April Fools gag, SYN!

But, seriously...who's on tonight?
















Oh.

Welsh Megaman

Skid X

Thanks to Say Your Number for taking one for the team there.

That's not a good line-up.

Not good at all.

Welsh Megaman

But wait, there's more! :pac:

Also on tonight's show is Galway based life-coach and trainer Pat Divilly. Five years ago, broke and depressed, Pat was forced to move home West after his business went to the wall. Now he is one of Ireland's most successful fitness gurus with a client list that runs into the thousands.
His recent inspirational TED Talk has been widely shared and watched by thousands of people who've been motivated by his tale of coming back from the brink.

Other guests include transplant surgeon Karen Redmond who recently carried out Ireland's first ever transplant operation involving "washing" lungs. She will be joined in studio by Leigh Bagnall, a cystic fibrosis patient given a new lease of life by the procedure.

Plus music from Gregory Porter and Marlon Williams.

Ol' Donie

Wait a flippin minute...

Gregory Porter? He's good, isn't he?

Ah Ok I can understand why now.

Tommie Gorman who has just turned 60 will be on to talk about his career in journalism.....and all the horrific war zones and disaster areas he has reported from. Expect lots of footage of starving babies and disease stricken families in Leitrim.

Singer Mary Coughlan will be to talk to Ryan about battling depression and alcoholism and oh yeah, will perform too.

And comedian Bernard O'Shea will be reporting from the Midlands to celebrate RTE's Big Week On The Farm, where every on the farm dies in a horrible accident, when the combine harvester fell into the slurry pit

Fixed that that for you mate. You're welcome.

Skid X

Strobe Lighting are on this show almost as often as Des Bishop.

Great soul singer...but he's no Meat Loaf

Red Kev

One of the worst lineups I've ever seen on the LLS.

Rte need to cop on and realise there just isn't the guests for two chat shows on a weekend.

Sad to see it decend to this.

murpho999

Mary Coughlan to fill the misery slot when she talks about her alcoholism.

You took the words right out of my mouth.


Ahem.

Welsh Megaman

We all remember the last time a lamb was on the LLS...

murpho999

What's the problem with cooking lamb on a TV show on Good Friday?

It's a choice of religious people not eat meat that day not a state law.

Skid X

We're Lambing ... I hope you like Lambing too.

murpho999

Very baaa'd slot this.

Invincible

Its a bit of a rip off of Springwatch on BBC, this week on the farm, but wait a minute, nothing new for RTE to copycat!

Lisha

Cleanest. Looking. Farmer. Ever .

I think they want it to be controversial. I dont know many people that care. Its like pancake Tuesday, its more a tradition than a prohibition

Hitchens

is this an April Fool's kinda thing? :rolleyes:

All TV stations copy formats from each other all the time.

Skid X

They should do this for more programmes ... Dunphy spouting his usual nonsense about Football while lambs frollick playfully in the background.

I'd watch that.

Yeah, but it's nice to see them ripping off something good for once.

I turn on the late late and I see sheep

What is going on

Richard Hillman

Surprised they didn't raid Assets Modeling Agency for a model pursuing a new career as a nutrition/fitness/fashion guru/blogger/author

Welsh Megaman

Anybody hear the April Fools prank on 'Morning Ireland'?

One or two irate listeners falling for it

Vorenus400

I didnt think anyone besides school kids found lambing fascinating. Maybe if it was a panda or a tiger/lion. Once again the RTE budget comes up short

Skid X

Must be grand for her having the Ministerial Pension all the same, eh? eh?

ProudDUB

Fair play to her. Her voice sounds just as strong as it did, back when the utterly brilliant Tired and Emotional came out in the late 80's. Wonder what she did, that Mary Black didn't do?

Lisha

Ahh, I just spotted that whoopsadaisydoodles closed her account.

Damn, she was funny. I'll miss her.

liam7831

Why wont one thread do for this shi te , do we really need a new one every week?

Are there no cool man-eating creatures at Fota?

These lambs are rubbish, Biiiiiill.

Not the great lambs. Dolly the sheep. Chris from Fr Ted. The quiet ones they made that film about.

This lamb fella here is a cod.

murpho999

I do like Mary's singing.

SEPT 23 1989

Well that was brutal

Thought she was terrible TBH.

Martypants1

She is an awful singer. She can't just not sing, she is actually hard to listen to.

Nooo, what was it? I heard some terrible ones on BBC 4 though, plans to paint the cliffs of Dover... :rolleyes:

Welsh Megaman

Is she locked?

Tubs would have to plan 9 months or whatever the animal equivalent is ahead and organise a match up:D

If you think people addicted to boards posting 20/30k posts here suddenly go away then you'll be surprised.

Ol' Donie

Lambs are nice, but sharks are my favourite animals.

That would have been much better in a shark tank.

Martypants1

Does Mary have a book coming out?

Skid X

Oh Mary, why don't you have some sense? ...
