The HSE head fella is on the board of a US drugs company, you couldn't make it up. Surely any medical related role in a private company while he is working for the HSE has a potential conflict of interest.

RTE2 showing Ted at the moment.

They should have followed that with Father Ted.

Scheduling opportunities like that don't come along very often.

Men have been sent into the battle fields for centuries and had their guts cut out yet it is women who have been treated badly.

Wonder how much money a year is paid out in compensation by the HSE?

One billion in legal costs in the last 20 years

One billion not getting to the sick when they really need it

I mean absolutely no disrespect to Vicky Phelan and other women that have been affected by what's happened, but can't we have just a little time off from this story - just for one night? Nothing but wall-to-wall coverage on every TV and radio show.

That's why this week so far I have only listened to Shay Byrne and Ronan Collins on Radio 1 and watched Champions League on RTE2 TV.I don't watch the Late Late anymore,but still enjoy checking in on this thread.

What books are behind Ryan? Are they nerdy ones to replace the robots or are they to show Ryan is a serious broadcaster

I'd just like to thank Atlantic Dawn for his excellent Booze Deals Megathread in Bargain Alerts https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057168220

That thread has saved me and cost me a fortune!
But it got me through many a Late Late Show.
