The Ray D'Arcy Show - 2nd. April 2016

Welsh Megaman

The Voice of Ireland Live knock-out stages continue tomorrow night, but tonight coach Rachel Stevens talks to Ray D'Arcy about her work on the hit show and recalls her halcyon days on the road as one of the UK's best-known pop stars with S Club 7.

Also on Saturday night's Ray D';Arcy Show, Lord Henry Mountcharles talks about his plans for Slane Castle, his recent health battles, and his encounters with some of the biggest names in music over the years, from the Rolling Stones to Bruce Springsteen to U2.

Marking the start of Organ Donor Awareness week, RTÉ broadcaster and Organ Donor Awareness ambassador Vivienne Traynor and her nephew Martin Traynor will share their story.
Another guest tonight is Brian O'Sullivan, who featured in a viral video performing a tribute in a Killorglin bar after his friend's funeral last week.

Strictly Come Dancing stars Vincent Simeone and Flavia Cacace-Mistry will also be in studio to show Ray some of their dance moves.

The Ray D'Arcy Show airs on RTÉ One at 9.45pm.

Will he ask rachel stevens about being on her knees?
Fair play to irish pictorial weekly for showing that.

Valentina

"If you call it work..."

Pot, kettle, black!

The BBC dropped that after seven episodes


Rachel is looking well. As always.

The Talking Bread

Ray really does have zero enthusiasm. He just seems like he is going through the motions every week,

Atlantic Dawn

Alan Carr applied for 'The Voice'?

Skid X

The Voice doesn't produce stars around these parts.

The 2015 BBC winner has gone back to being a fireman.

Icsics

Can't bear to watch this prog anymore. Firm convert to Jonathan Ross here

I loved S Club 7. They were good fun.

Porridge will do that to ya.

Valentina

Omg that song is my guilty pleasure :pac:

Atlantic Dawn

Did the blonde one go in to Big Brother and destroy her "career"?

jluv

Ray never seems interested in who he is interviewing and instead to me he always seems to be trying to have a cheap shot at people?

I preferred S Club 3 :pac:

Atlantic Dawn

Ray is kind of coming across as taking the piss out of her "success" is he not?

Crimsonforce

Oh for christ sake get her off and get onto the depression/bad health segement
Its saturday night on rte after all

Skid X

Leave her alone, Darcy.

She had a decent solo career. Longer than most.

Welsh Megaman

Talk about Captain Buzzkill! :eek: :mad:

Your solo career started well, but then it CRASHED AND BURNED BIG TIME.

Atlantic Dawn

Don't mention Geri Maye.

mansize

Sweet dreams my LAX

RobertKK

I would give Rachel Stevens the job Ray is suppose to do.

Yeah but compared to this...

Atlantic Dawn

Everything D'Arcy tries to joke about is backfiring on him tonight.

Valentina

The dancing could have been really entertaining but no. Jesus, he's hopeless.

Atlantic Dawn

The €10 notes are looking fancier each week.

Rightly dropped by BBC. A poor alternative.

Welsh Megaman

God forbid Ray should go off-script :rolleyes:

Worse than Tubs!

Could have been a genuinely funny and entertaining moment.

Then we remember, it's 'The Ray D'Arcy Show'.

RobertKK

I wish Ray wasn't so dismissive of women and their achievements.

Crimsonforce

I cant take him, of to jonathan ross

jluv

Rachel was well able for him:P

The Talking Bread

That was such a dull non researched interview.

So Rachel you were in a band (10 minutes)
So Rachel you are now on the Voice (5 minutes)
So Rachel you married your boyfriend (3 minutes)


I feel like I learnt so much from that.

Welsh Megaman

Unsurprisingly, guess who's back in May...

Did you hear what he said...

"Heres you at work" (on the voice) followed by under the breath remark,, "if you can call it work"...


I mean, seriously!!
