ireland t-shirt in 'Desperate Housewives'

SoupyNorman

was just watching desperate housewives on E4, not the best show ever but worth a look....Anyway when the hottest woman to appear on t.v in too long (the woman the gardener is playing hide the sausage with) goes to see him in his college dorm the roomate who answers the door is wearing a t-shirt with a print of our fair island in reverse (galway facing wales if you're havin trouble understanding). i really cant fathom a reason as its famously documented a huge % of americans couldnt point out america on a blank map.

my own opinion is their is somebody of irish origin (born here not decesended from a irish wolfhound or something) works on the show and wanted to do a shout out subliminal style to us here!!!!!!!

anybody got a theory?

Oh i'l watch it on e4+1 now

SoupyNorman

cool, a first hand view is the only way to dispell any insanity

In the movie The Italian Job, the guy who knows all the stuff about the computers is wearing a green t-shirt with a map of Ireland on it in one scene......

This filmed in Ireland?

Visiting rappers are always givin the irish a shout out. 50 Cent came out at a point gig wearin an ireland soccer jersey. At the wu tang at oxegen Ghostface came out wearin a tricolour, the crowd went ****ing mental


Speaking of snoop and jerseys, in his video Beautiful, which was shot in Rio in Brazil, near the end where all the Brazillians are dancing one extra can clearly be seen wearing an Irish county GAA jersey (cant recall which, dont follow gah, its a yellow one i think, with some meat company sponsors). Think it was yellow tho. Lord knows how it ended up in some Brazillian shantytown

i saw it on the diary of snoop dog programme on MTV Base the other night

it may have been when he was in Ireland recently (more than likely)

Gileadi

rabbitinlights

Ye, in that diary he thinks the jersey is a "football" jersey.........

Snoop must have taken the rugby jersey out of that models wardrobe....when he was done getting up on her.

wild guess/ irish map was probably reversed because the filmed image was flipped in post-production /end wild guess.

No chance. That would mean everything else was flipped. And it wasn', cos you could proberly read stuff.

just saw that episode tonight on rte. the reason ireland is back to front is that he's wearing the t-shirt inside out...mystery solved!

Wow! an Irish Map on a Tee Shirt on an american show. Ireland's Claim to Fame.

We should all be so proud.


Watched it tonight and didn't even notice.

Oh well I might check it out on C4 tomorrow at 10.

How many times have the shown that tee-shirt scene now? 10 - 12?

I think it was an Offaly jersey - there was a period a few year's back where the jersey appeared in some very unlikely places.

Its an Offaly county jersey which is around five years old at this stage!!!

He was clearly insinuating that Ireland is a backward little nation. I am offended and demand the show be axed.
