To celebrate 25 years of Barretstown, ambassadors Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Aidan Gillen will be on the Ray D'Arcy Show with Clea Newman, the daughter of Barretstown founder Paul Newman.

Ray will also be welcoming some of the children and families who've used the services of the Camp since its inception.

Heather Mills will be in studio discussing the rise of veganism and speaking about the launch of her new vegan food range.

Also joining Ray on the show will be financial guru Eoin McGee, who will be talking about spending and saving for the year ahead.

There will be performances from Freya Ridings and the Christchurch Cathedral Choir.

The Ray D'Arcy Show airs on Saturday, January 26 at 9.50pm on RTÉ One.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers was good as Elvis in the 2005 CBS Elvis mini series. He won a Golden Globe for it, it still pops up on True Movies and True Entertainment from time to time.

He seems to have had some issues lately with addictions, alas.

Veganism again? Is this some sort of joke?

Ol' Donie

RTE Player seems to be working ok this week.

It's not as if RTE blocked last week's show in case Noel Edmonds said anything libelous. :pac:

Ray, I am not normally inclined to criticise but that it too many interviewees for one panel.

Rock Lesnar

Ray D'arcy interviewed the legend Paul Newman, at home Ryan Tubridy just fell off his couch

"I'm the one with the bad jacket and the bad hair."



Back in 1994, as well.

The only Paul Newman film I think I've seen is Pixar's 'Cars'!

Very nice lady, like her Dad.

No offence to anyone, but I am not getting into this...

Do yourself a favour and watch The Hustler. A great film and a great actor.

I remember when Barretstown launched there was an advert on Irish Radio with Will Carling, the England Rugby Captain, looking for donations.

No-one else, just Will.

Just shows how bad Irish Rugby was then. I don't think you would get that now.

"We need money for the new Kids Camp in Kildare - Is Dylan Hartley available? That's who we need to get the cash rolling in ..."

Yeah, I suppose the audience can applaud the fact that he is dead.


:rolleyes:

Aidan gives off the vibe he has heads in the freezer

Got a bitta profile???

The only other people I ever heard refer to as campers were the guests as Maplin Holiday Camp in Hi De Hi


Ted Bovis from Hi De Hi also sang a bit. Badly.

Didn't know Ferris Bueller's best friend was going to be on...

What?

Get yer hands on The Sting.

Best thing ever.

I'm loving this segment, very inspirational.

Skid X

If you only watch one Paul Newman film I recommend The Sting. It's class.

Robert Redford and Robert Shaw are also in it.

Newman would seem to be have been an extraordinarily generous and decent human being.

It's fierce windy out, picture is very jumpy for me, looks like some sort of support group on now.

None taken, but I am. These people are amazing, and may or may not be vegan.

Fair play to Paul Newman for been generous enough set up barretstown.

EPAndlee

I'm out, I'll try again next week

Some jokers on the production team have put this picture on Ray's cue cards...

Welsh Megaman

Somebody say 'Cars'!



EDIT: Actually, just remembered, I have seen 'Road To Perdition'...great film.

Decent enough section, very impressed with Clea Newman.

She would have been a good interviewee in her own right.

Good to hear Barretstown is still going strong.

It's a shame Film 2020 was cancelled by the BBC.

Barry Norman would have killed for Encyclopedic knowledge like that :pac:

Wow she’s nice

No offence, but...these lyrics!


Woeful!

Can't have spent terribly long writing this one.

I like Springsteen's version of that song

That women's rugby ad is terrible.

'representing a country of over 3 million', technically correct but far out from the actual figure.

Welsh Megaman

Written on Ray's cue card...

'Make sure Clea doesn't forget that her Dad is dead.'

But the rugby is all island so should be 5 million, the northies won't be happy.

That Bros Doc is repeated on BBC2 in 10 minutes.

I was half-watching the Darts when it was on at Christmas so I didn't get the full effect, but people were raving about it being a real life Spinal Tap

THANK YOU!! It was doing my head in wondering where i heard that song before.

Mortgages, lol, we pay once of the highest mortgage rates in the EU because we have such sheite legislation in the country that someone can not pay their mortgage for a number of years without getting evicted. No bank of any sound mind would come to this country to sell mortgages.
