Ray Darcy making a Holy Show on a Saturday

As usual, nothing to report in terms of guests as Twitter and Entertainment.ie have nothing -so they're probably still out on Grafton st looking for interesting people to talk to.

Interesting(ish) fact, Ray mentioned on his radio show the other week that when interviewing one of the key players of netflix, he asked where does this leave the likes of RTE- they replied that they weren't in competition with LIVE TV.

So, there ya go- Ray Darcy show has no competition- we're stuck with what they throw at us:p

Found it!

The Ray D'Arcy Show's guests for Saturday night have been announced, with the host set to focus on the subject of consent following the Belfast rape trial.

D'Arcy will be joined in studio by rape survivor Niamh Ní Dhomhnaill, Chief Executive of the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre Noeline Blackwell and psychotherapist Richie Sadlier.

Following the success of the comedy series The Young Offenders, one of its stars, Shane Casey, will be in studio to talk about his a cappella cover of The Frank and Walters' Afterall, which has given the classic song a new lease of life. As a treat, The Frank and Walters will also be performing the song live.

Musical theatre star Rebecca Storm will also join D'Arcy to discuss her iconic roles and the new production of Calendar Girls, which sees her team-up with Take That's Gary Barlow.

Artist Kevin Sharkey will also be in studio to discuss his ambition to be Ireland's first black President.

The Ray D'Arcy Show, Saturday, RTÉ One, 9:30pm

Thank Christ I'm going out, enough pints may help me forget my license fee pays for this crap.

Richie Sadlier was on the Second Captains podcast discussing the whole trial and the issue of consent, it was behind a paywall but they made it available for free due to demand, well worth a listen.

Not sure why he wants to be president of eire though. It's an apolitical role and last I heard he is looking to run on a political platform, with some very strong views on certain matters. He's no lefty!

31-03-2018 9:25pm

I'm going to watch this just for Richie. Love him! He's also really sound

What would his brother Fergal make of all this?

Oh, and evening all

Best podcast going.

Although I still can't bring myself to watch this tonight.

Oh, Match of the Day, how I have missed you.

31-03-2018 9:29pm

I might find a way to cover part of the screen so I don't have to see D'arcy. Gawd he's an awful dose. It's a far cry from the days of Fix it Friday

Atlantic Dawn · 31-03-2018 9:30pm

Wonder will Ray give health warnings about consuming too much chocolate?

Welsh Megaman · 31-03-2018 9:32pm

''Did ya have ya porridge, Mark?''

Vorenus400 · 31-03-2018 9:33pm

Great prize, you can now leaf through a book for 5 minutes rather than googling

Beechwoodspark · 31-03-2018 9:34pm

Sharkey. Total f***in attention seeker

Yer Da sells Avon · 31-03-2018 9:34pm

"It's Saturday night and we're live on the telly" is the worst catchphrase ever.

Atlantic Dawn · 31-03-2018 9:34pm

It's a handy number being president.

Welsh Megaman · 31-03-2018 9:34pm

''We want to help you make sense of the Belfast Rape trial.''

Saturday night entertainment, folks!

Its very 'Noels House Party'

Berserker · 31-03-2018 9:35pm

Is that the job of the president in Ireland?

Arne_Saknussem · 31-03-2018 9:35pm

Oooh, Raymond won't like this.

Welsh Megaman · 31-03-2018 9:35pm

Will he sing 'The Banana Boat Song' tonight?

Daaaaaaaaaaay-ooh!

Atlantic Dawn · 31-03-2018 9:35pm

Too much sense now.

Yer Da sells Avon · 31-03-2018 9:35pm

Sure what would he know? He's from Donegal.

The Talking Bread · 31-03-2018 9:35pm

Why do you want to be president?

"I want to represent the people and I want a petrol station named after me"

donkeykong5 · 31-03-2018 9:36pm

Is he still homeless ?

Say Your Number · 31-03-2018 9:36pm

Crazy finish to the hurling on TG4.

Berserker · 31-03-2018 9:37pm

Jesus Ray, Ireland can't even learn from it's own mistakes! Look at housing.

EPAndlee · 31-03-2018 9:37pm

I'm going to stick with the boxing tonight I think

mloc123 · 31-03-2018 9:37pm

Cringe...
