I actually really enjoyed it+ I wouldnt usually say that about LLS.

Those girls surving the night on those paddle boards s unbelievable.

Ye I thought most of it good and entertaining too. Just thought the Ronan Glynn part could be left out of it. I had no problem with any of the rest of it do.

Personally I think he’s a very likeable chap and spoke very well there. He has youthful looks, fair play to him, but he is 40 odd.

I found Tony unbearably smug and condescending so for me, Ronan is far easier to listen to.

Ronan was brilliant tonight.
Tony was never smug,. World Pandemic is what they are dealing with, I'm sure they'd love to grab some people by the collars and shake the f&#k out of them!? None of those guys are smug they just know more than any of us mere-mortals what we are dealing with. They don't deal in social media fake news conspiracy crap,it must wreck their heads when they hear some of that shíte.

Russell Crowe?????
WTF happened to him

I didnt even cop it was him!!!!!!!!!!

Wasn't really paying attention to that section + when it was over I said to my husband 'Russell Crowe was meant to be on' + he said he was.

Had to rewind it couldnt find him. Nearly died when I saw it was an auld fella!

TheRiverman · 05-09-2020 12:26am

Russell Crowe looks a wreck at 56, certainly hasn't aged well since the last time he was on the Late Late and sang with the house band.

25 minutes in

Zara King's friend Sandra Bullock says to her "Zara, you are so stressed out over this, why don't you get a puppy - you love puppies, you always talk about getting a puppy, get a puppy"

Sandra Bullock brings Zara King to the Dog Shelter and, you won't believe who is volunteering in his spare time to look after homeless puppies - it's only Dr Ronan Glynn!"

etc

They smile at each other and just as they start chatting they are interrupted by...oh, no!...his superficial and demanding fianceé!

Gosh, will Zara ever catch a break!

Not great on younger men either, if you use Paul Galvin or Roy Keane ( when he grows it ) as a benchmark.

Also, those commentating on how a daughter mourning on the loss of her father, 'would get "it"' need to get in touch with your own humanity and not do that. Hard to read such ****e.

Have to agree.

My inflatable one is now being confined to the skip next time it arrives on the estate. Mind you I can only sit on it with my bad knees etc, but I got a taste of how vulnerable inflatable ones are from using in an extremely show bay when there was a slight offshore wind. I wasn't long about jumping off it into the shallow water before it went out. Your body acts like a sail on them. Unless on a small lake, wearing buoyancy gear etc, they are unsafe. Really, any paddle boarding needs to be done with reference to forecast wind direction, in a confined bay, with wet suit and in a group or with a person in a motorised rescue boat keeping watch.

In many countries, like England, even the Isolde of Man, there are dedicated boating lakes with shallow water, where people can undertake these sports quite safely. I often think we need (more) such places here, maybe where you pay entry or for hire of the craft, and have changing area, cafe etc.

Beautiful vinyl

But at a tenner plus another tenner for postage it's priced a bit steep! And onlly 1 track on it!

I should have posted, “Beautiful” vinyl, because in the Toyman’s world, everything is beautiful, delicious, kind and many other uber-superlatives and exaggerations, all used entirely out of context.

No book is delicious, I don’t eat books. No vinyl is beautiful, it’s 12 inches of plastic with a hole in the middle. Taking the p1ss out off someone isn’t kind.

Hi Skid. Well spotted. I was indeed scoffing with my brother in North Tipp. Washed down with draught Guinness. LLS on silent on the tellybox in the corner.

I know the sort of place.

And if the channel was changed some old lad in the corner would say "I was watching that".

Atlantic Dawn · 06-09-2020 6:46pm

I see they are chopping about 20 minutes off for the next show.

AMKC · 08-09-2020 4:02pm

Remember the doctor that was on this episode talking about her Dad and family and the effect Covid had on them. Well her name is Sammer not Summer as some people here seem to think and am sure that is what the plank Tubridy called her too.

Maybe the ever bothersome autocorrect? That doesn’t explain Turbidity’s behaviour, though.

Atlantic Dawn · 08-09-2020 10:20pm

Are the viewing figures in any way representative of actual viewers? Last weeks apparently pulled in 511k people.

Figures announced on Tuesday showed that the Late Late's return had an average audience of 511,000 (Live and Viewed on Same Day as Live - VOSDAL).

I once had a woman self excluding herself from a pub I was running because I turned down the sound on Coronation Street so we could get news of a tube crash half a mile away on local radio.
It emerged afterwards that her husband was on the train but unharmed.
She and her family still boycotted the place for over a year though.

I'd hazard a guess that the LLS is pulling in viewers because of the C19.

Less going out and people want to take part, if only from their living room, in some sort of community/conversation/entertainment experience which is Irish based.

The competition from UK channels isn't that great on a Friday night either.
