    A news report from Wuhan, China last night on RTE's 9 o'clock News.

    I so wanted Yvonne Murray to sign off just after purchasing a chocolate-covered bat on a stick from the nearby street market.

    And then, straight to camera, Yvonne Murray, Wuhan, China, (Biting off the bat's ear) for RTE News.

    What news report could you make better?

    New York, September 11, 2001. Live footage of the second plane about to hit the tower. King Kong swings out from behind it with Jennifer Aniston in his hand, and swats, the plane out of the sky.

    Eileen Dunne takes a pistol and shoots herself in the head live on air after apologising to the country for letting the country down over breaking lockdown rules.

    Was it Gift Grubb or Callan's Kicks that gave GL the 'Dr Doom' persona back in the day?

    Either way - I would like there to be an introduction segment, like on those US late night talk shows, for Dr Doo- I mean Mr Lee on the Six One.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.
