"This is scutter"-The Late Late Show: Friday 23rd September 2022

Pelvis Parsley

In a surprising departure from the well trodden protocols, our delicious and beautiful friends in Castle Montrosia have REVEALED their STELLAR LINE-UP a day earlier than usual.

So, I am obliged to do likewise. This week features, along with a thread which will asthmatically struggle to exceed five pages, Sporty Spice (who has aged quite well, it has to be said), and Brian Cox (the actor, not the physicist).

I wouldn't mind either of these people as guests, except for the fact that they'll be sitting opposite Ichabod ToyMan.

More to follow once the (official rte.ie) puff piece gets released sometime tomorrow.

Welsh Megaman

Saw Jeff Bridges on ‘The One Show’ earlier, talking about how he beat cancer and only ONE (mediocre) chat show host came to mind who would love to interview him!

Great thread title Mr Parsley!!

A big problem with the Late Late Show is obviously rattling out the usual suspects (Dermot Bannon, Pat Short etc).......but the ultimate problem lies with the host...

When you actually have decent enough guests like the spice girl and Brian Cox....they are wasted with Tubridy looking to talk about death or what they think of the Irish........... "arent we great craic".....

Jesus, Jeff Bridges would be a superb guest....Tubridy doesnt deserve to be in the same room as him...

Graham Norton is back on BBC1 tomorrow night too, so that's a few 1000 knocked off the viewing figures anyway.

It might be telling that RTÉ released these over the course of the week rather then the normal Thursday. I am not sure how that will work out for them. I tune in to Brian Cox but I know Tubs will just guffaw with him about succession and not about any other part of his career, though he will mention Hannibal.

Lulu Walsh new boy band debuting but can it top the Boyzone debut

Will Tubridy attempt more bullying of this new boyband....not very kind is it?

"But its only abit of fun" says the bully.....

Shove it up your hole Tubridy!!!🖕

Be nice to hear Ciara Mageean, she’s been consistently successful picking up a fine haul of medals for herself and Ireland over the last 6 years or so years… Goes about her work with minimal fuss, self publicity or fanfare so will be nice to pick up an insight.

TheRiverman

I'm not really a fan of Paul Brady, but I love Steel Claw the song he wrote for Tina Turner. It's on her great Private Dancer album.

When the Brian Cox interview does eventually get rescheduled it will probably be a pre-recorded video interview 🙄 but hey we get the amazing Tommie Gorman instead 🙄

StevenToast

Brian Cox was the first proper guest this show has lined up in a very long time.....and just like that...he was gone!

Id say he got wind of how painful Tubridy is.....Cox doesnt fancy talking misery, death and how much he loves Ireland.....

Good decision by him.....

I like Sporty, she seems sound.

Ye, she's coming across well.

No sign of the welshman and his cats....Tubridy has broken him!

Tubridy taking this interview down the same very, very predictable road. Lord Jaysis.

90’s were great beer E coke and great music

AMKC

I think Mel C is looking great and she is so down to Earth.

FintanMcluskey

I'm not sure is this site fcuked or is the late late fcuked.

Either way only with 1 page here so far, something is fcuked

That means I’m nearly 48

so she’s not

Denny61

Typical patronising interviewer and interviewee..reason spice girls started the comeback here was no body in Britain would know about croker or care ..so anything to be ironed out. All the better here ..

Cumhachtach

Nice lady, she has a relaxed maturity that comes from gaining wisdom with age.

At its height the pages would be moving so fast you couldn’t find your own posts or if you had actually posted

She sure is.

Montage of Feck

Oh ffs, he's started on the toy show already. And did I hear him say "nice" before the competition in a very Alan Partridge way.

Every has-been music act reignites their careers here!!!! We pay for absolute muck..shur look at our host!!!

Atlantic Dawn

I do miss the calls from P O'Neill.

hawking his buke

Cumhachtach

I looked at his Saipan Keane interview recently. It was so cringey, Tommy so naive. 'But Roy think of the children who adore you'.

Atlantic Dawn

Sean O'Rourke is back in the parish from retirement, I expect Tommy will be too.

Can we get him in instead of Covidia Byrne?

StevenToast

This is the deadest the thread has ever been....

This thread could be a guest on next weeks show its that terminal....

SEPT 23 1989

We could have got to a final the way the final stages played out

never forgive that

walshb

Gorgeous man, gorgeous family? Wtf!!!

castletownman

Keane is our best ever sportsman. What he did in Turin that night is the greatest performance of any sportsman ever.

walshb

What man describes another man as a gorgeous man?

Only 2 teams scored a goal against Germany in that World Cup.

Brazil in the final & Ireland in the group game.

Cumhachtach

As sports pundits say about a poor atmosphere at a ground 'the fans react to what happens on the pitch'.

The posters, or lack of them, are reacting to what's happening on their screens.

Maradona v England WC 86 and v Belgium for me.

Keane was brilliant though.
