Ray D'Arcy show 21/01/17

Heckler

Apart from Olivia Newton John I have no idea whos on.

If you google Olivia Newton John she's dead apparently. Died in Cambridge, UK.

Either google got it wrong or D'arcy is really scraping the barrel.

It could be an Olivia Newton John impersonator. Once bitten, twice shy and all that.

As well as the not dead Olivia Newton-John who was born in Cambridge, UK.

Commander Chris Hadfield is appearing to chat about his new children's book The Darkest Dark.

Niall McHugh and Stephen Lannon, who recently campaigned to get access to life changing drugs for their babies, will be appearing to talk about their experiences.

And rising star Alison Spittle will chat to Ray about breaking into the tough Irish comedy scene.

Why can't we have simple old fashioned entertainment on a Saturday night that doesn't involve campaigns, illness or death

Chris Hadfield will be good. I like him.

Heckler

Alison Spittle is less funny than Maeve Higgins. And thats saying something. Gonna watch so I can complain.

Lady Chatterton

I'm not familiar with Alison's comedy but I liked her when she was on Brendan O'Connor's Cutting Edge recently alongside Tom McGurk, the two got on famously. She was very funny that night, perhaps Ray should have extended an invite to Tom too.

I'd say Ray will open up with Trump hatred.

Anyone else think it's Alison who does the voiceover for the Tesco Mobile ad?

Why do we punish ourselves like this?

Evening all

*fantasises about Olivia in tight black leggings*

I wonder what Astronaut guy has to say.

walshb

WTF is a man like Chris Hadfield doing on a Saturday nite conversing with D'Arcy?

Rock Lesnar

Ray reminds me of Furnell from NCIS

Harry Angstrom

Did he just say "Alan" Spittle?? :rolleyes:

Ol' Donie

He said Alan Spittle there, right?

Ol' Donie

Love this guy.

Lady Chatterton

An endorsement from Master Tom D'arcy, Chris has really landed now.

I disagree, can't stand Ray :pac:

How was Sabbath?

Ray, don't feel too bad that Chris is in a far superior shape physically than you are.

Just don't let it eat away at you. Gnaw away at you.

I suppose he's used to being in places with no atmosphere.

Rock Lesnar

Hadfield now wondering why cant the presenter ask good questions like that

Lady Chatterton

I can't believe GSW isn't here, she is a big fan of Chris and she has met him. I suppose she'll watch him on the RTE Player..

Still feelin it, my man.

It fairly ruled, to be honest.

Harry Angstrom

Has Ray never heard of peristalsis?

Lady Chatterton

The kids questions are better than Ray's.

Mena Mitty

Ray thinks he's back on the Den.

Welsh Megaman

Scenes in Cork City Cenre this afternoon, after they found out they won the LLS Thread Poll...

CORK!!

Tony Iommi was on fine form, and Tommy Clutefos with his 20-miute drum solo

What's your favourite planet?

Not watching. I'll get my entertainment here while watching the snooker.

Lady Chatterton

I love his Bowie tribute.

Rock Lesnar

Ray should ask has he ever seen the planet Zog

Surreptitious

This Chris guy is cute and articulate.

Harry Angstrom

He reminds me of one of the doctors from St Elsewhere. He also voiced Kitt in Knight Rider.

Berserker

Evening all. A some kids and an astronaut.

Lady Chatterton

This feels a bit awkward...

Lady Chatterton

That little lad is a bit of a character.

Surreptitious

The girl can't speak up. They should have got someone else.

Welsh Megaman

I think Ray D'Arcy should be sent into space.

For scientific reasons, of course.

Guests interviewing guests. Awkward, but not as awkward as D'Arcy doing it.

Rock Lesnar

Chris is to good of a guest for this show

Loved his book "An astronauts guide to life on earth"

Remember FÁS involved in space...

A CONTROVERSIAL FAS programme which cost taxpayers €7.8m before it was shut down was of no real benefit, a top-level government report has found.

The expenditure on the FAS Science Challenge included Health Minister Mary Harney's infamous $410 (€299) wash and blowdry at a Florida beauty parlour.

The kid has already asked better questions than Ray has in two whole series.

The space suit was a giveaway. Knew he would be class when he came out wearing that.

Lady Chatterton

Didn't Pat Kenny invest in that Powerscourt Development??
