Ok, nobody forced this lady not to be the baby’s mother...

She absolutely could have kept her baby..

Her family, her peers,her employers all against her. Young woman,different times. Would have been very difficult I think...

I feel very sorry for this woman, she was clearly taken advantage of by very evil people

Ryan is tone deaf here, there's a way to talk to this woman without traumatising all over again.

And yet if you had a child out of wedlock, you were the criminal

I remember when I was flying in the 80s, somebody stupidly tried to fly from Dublin airport to Weston to uptake the cheap fuel there but ran out half way and ended up forced down on a field in the grounds of a mother & baby home. I was in my twenties then, absolutely stunned to learn that I had been flying back and forth over an institution that was there to incarcerate girls just like myself in a certain circumstance... as I flew free as a bird in my hired aircraft.

Wow. You must have been one a few very rich people in Ireland during that time being able to fly even if your aircraft was hired. I was only a child during the 80s so do not remember much from it except for music really.

Painful interview. Totally shameful way to treat anyone.

Catholic Ireland just fcuking die.

I wouldn't worry it slowly is tbh.
It's a shame they still have such control over schools as well as some hospitals

Poor woman. Tubridy seems a bit too excited, trying to make her as miserable as possible for TV. "Were you crying then like you are crying now?" What a stupid question.

Was yer man charged for 'having relations' with her?

I don’t know the answer ,but based on the Ireland of the time,I’d wager he didn’t even get a slap on the wrist (or verbal equivalent)

I don’t think posters on here who criticise a band like the academic have any understanding of modern indie/rock music. Even picture this create some decent music, and their delivery of them is great. Also the coronas have got better with every album. Prefer to listen to this than the Rolling Stones of yesteryear. Tho I cannot stand the Hozier and Gavin Blake that they put on this show, totally depressing nerds.

Which member of the academic are you?

Your lack of empathy is stunning.

Her genuine sincerity is as clear as day.

And then you'd wonder why I am apprehensive

I can't understand this. There was a profound lack of empathy shown to this woman. How can this not move you?

Is there anyone in this show who is not flogging a book?

Isn’t that fella that made savage eye related to old Tubs....., I wonder where he got the inspiration for the misery DJ from..... I’ve no idea

I absolutely empathise with her..

I think Tubridy thinks he's doing a great cathartic interview here.

Rather than coldly dissecting someone's life story.

A week in Ashford Castle should absorb that and more.

In fairness it was a completely different time....what happened her (how she was treated)would be completely illegal these days.....hard to comprehend just how utterly things have changed....

For some reason Ryan reminded me of the famous chatshow host Ricky Whitelaw when he held up the book to the camera

Joe Duffy, but Tubs went full Joe Duffy there so he may as well have been the inspiration!

Sorry that is the worst Late Late in a long time.

Terrible - the show is struggling without an audience.

The misery DJ is definitely not Tubs.
It is 100 percent Joe Duffy and it is utterly spectacularly spot on

Virtually the whole of society bought into those mores. It was normal ordinary everyday thinking that the majority people agreed with, with the odd dissenter who was usually thought to be depraved. Still I remember being shocked at the time at the continued existence of mother & baby homes, although it was put to me that these existed for the greater good.
