The Ray D'Arcy Show - 12th. November 2016

Welsh Megaman

Ireland rugby star Jordi Murphy is among the guests on tonight's Ray D'Arcy Show on RTE One. Murphy will join Ray to chat about last week's historic win that was Ireland's first against New Zealand's All Blacks in 111 years. He will reveal what else Irish rugby supporters can expect from the current Ireland team as they prepare to face the World Champions for a second time in a fortnight when they meet in Dublin next weekend.

Ireland's Fittest Family presenter Mairead Ronan will be in studio for her first television interview since becoming a mother for the second time. She will chat about her recent marriage, family and will update Ray on her busy career plans.

Six-time Oscar nominated movie director Jim Sheridan will join Ray in studio to talk about living and working in the US. He will also discuss his new film, an adaptation of Sebastian Barry's acclaimed book, The Secret Scripture.

Fresh from covering the Presidential election in the US, broadcaster George Hook will be giving his unique slant on what he thinks is really going on Stateside with the ascendancy to the White House of Donald Trump.

Viral Irish video stars Glenn Murphy and Ronan Scolard, who were plucked from the audience to sing onstage at Adele's Dublin concert last March, will also be in studio for a song and a chat.

I think Ray used to be campaigning a bit for the cervical cancer vaccine back in the day. Wonder will he challenge George on his recent anti vaccination stance. Or more likely will he let george waffle on about liberal lefties and corrupt clinton who he used to support:rolleyes:

Every since I heard that there was an item on Hook's new show called "Hook's Books" my mind has been racing trying to think of other rhyming segments that he could have on the show. Here's what I've come up with so far. Additions are welcome.

Nevin Maguire shows George how to cook the perfect Christmas dinner. |

Hook's Cooks.

Ex prisoners discuss the problem of recividism with George. |

Hook's Crooks.

Ex model Pippa O'Connor is in studio to give George some beauty tips for the older gentleman. |

Hook's Looks.

George takes to the chess board to see if he can beat Ireland's junior champion Peter Murphy. |

Hook's Rooks.

As part of Agri-Ireland Week, George tries his hand at running a chicken coop. |

Hook's Chucks.

You mean like Liz O'Kane did for Obama...

She was championing both Obama and Irish property, which shows you her level of expertise in both American politics and the Irish property market.

Did they not learn anything from last night?
Maybe they're hoping Ray will get an easier ride from George than Tubbs got fro Katie. l

It was only the third time they ever sung it, and it sounds like it.

I don't get this.
Adele's own version is way better.

Welsh Megaman

But what do they think about Trump?

Are the audience asked to clap every time Ray opens his mouth?

The Salsa - great rugby dance

Harry Angstrom

The feckin Sheridans are never off the TV or radio. If it isn't Jim, it's his brother Peter.

Atlantic Dawn

This Trump rubbish of people moaning about a valid result is wrecking my head.

RobertKK

At least Trump has hair...

Welsh Megaman

To add to PeterTheNinth's list...

George Hook and a camera crew go undercover to surprise teenagers who should be in school...

PLAYING HOOKY 8-)

Ah, George Hook due on... bound to spend most of the interview making excuses as to why we beat the All Blacks... anti Irish pr1ck!

Never warmed to this Sheridan dude!

take everything

His kids are SJW drama-merchants?

Well that conversation was knocked on its head quickly- "I suppose you have to give him a chance" - Ha ha

Harry Angstrom

Ray's favourite question: "Is it pronounced biopic or bi-opic?"

RobertKK

So much moaning from liberals, it is like a z rated porn film.

walshb

Don King the boxer!

Jaysus Salma Hayek is stunning

RobertKK

Ray explains what DP is in case anyone has a dirty mind.

Welsh Megaman

Anybody seen his 50 Cent bi-opic?

Berserker

Evening all. Nice fun start to the show with Jim. :rolleyes:

Ray should ask him will he do a sequel to The Field?

Harry Angstrom

I'm sure Jimbo is on first name terms with Bruce......

Welsh Megaman
