    I was first Inroduced to Laura Woods on RTE's atest attempt at Kool KIDS TV. She seems to talk out the side of here mouth. Fair Dues to RTE on the Disabilties hiring policy. Like to see the BBC Do that. But then I don’t think anyone can beat UTV's. Trisha jeremey, Julian etc etc

    This chick seems only able to speak through the side of her mouth. She genuinly looks like she had a stroke. HAS SHE ? The rest is just ramblings

    She's a bit of a pig. But I'd still throw her a bone to take that puss off her face.

    No but really has she had a sroke or somehing. Is there some medical reason she talks the way she does


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 278 ✭✭Niall123


    She looks pretty good to me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 246 ✭✭ccd


    But watch her speak next time she is on TV. She's driving me bloody crazey. Is there something Physically wrong with her or is she a <<SNIP>>


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 648 ✭✭✭landser


    she speaks aa roadwatch english. to do it properly, you have to speak out of the side of your mouth... she went to Trinity as well, she probably picked up some bad habits there too, poncey cow.

    nice rack though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,730 ✭✭✭✭simu


    Yeah, a case of "D4-itis" I'd say.

    Nice :D

    Iam not buying it. I still think she must of had a stroke. She only uses one eight of her mouth when she talks. Dosnt seem to stop her eating her dinner though. She could do with feeding Geri Maye some of her scraps. Eat a samwhich Geri Maye. If she was a hunger striker they would be force feeding her by now


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 550 ✭✭✭Telefís


    The only answer to this thread is I hope so.
    Know exactly what you mean ccd - drives me up the wall. She pouts her mouth to one side so the words, what others would call babble, just casually fall out of the corner.
    It's all part of the act for the slushy new Mid-Atlantic, American, D4, DART, East Coast accent - not enough to have one anymore, one must possess all five now to work in Irish broadcasting.

    She drives me and so many others I know completely insane: whassh? rigsh rigsh, leasher 'guys' loike, leasher rigsh we'll have some loike fantaaaastic 'shows' for you, so stay tuned to watch me loike wave my fantaaaaastic boots around thash I gosh loike the other day loike in River Oiland on Grafton Streessh for only 265 loike 'youros'........

    Now I wonder what sort of content that show involves...

    She's extremely smug that's for sure, I can't stand her or her inability to host a show. My brother and I have decided she looks like a retarded hamster.. if that's any help to you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    I'd like to smash her head in with a lump hammer and skull**** her brains.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    she is possibly the most talentless D4 Robot working for RTE at the moment.
    How does she get work??????

    QED


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,211 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    Yep, she's total **** at her job... and I do not find her attractive at all. Needs to be starved for a couple of weeks. D4 Princess with somewhat desirable job = the boss's daughter, or ****ing the boss, or bo... nah i won't go there.

    Coincidental though it may be, I actually am her bosses daughter, and I couldn't get a job if I wanted one without going through alot of auditions, training and improving my cv a great deal, and even then it would be very unlikely. The woman obviously appeals to enough people to keep her place in the business or she would be dropped quick enough, and aren't all of you a bit old for children's tv anyway??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,639 ✭✭✭Laguna


    She's on the Café isn't she, that's not aimed at children is it?. You really think she'd be dropped soon enough if she had no appeal?, what's the story with Ryan Tubridy then?, no one likes him, when's he due to be dropped?

    c'mon now lads there's no coincidences at all that all of the young rte presenters come from about a 10km radius of donnybrook.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 246 ✭✭ccd


    I Think she may be on the air still, because people feel sorry for her. I know I do. Maybe She could start her own Charity and raise more awereness for stroke victums she could get people like Barry Maguigan and Muhammod Ali on. To show how otheR stroke victums have overcome there's.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    Barry McGuigan has had a stroke???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 246 ✭✭ccd


    Yes. His final Fight In Vagas. He had a Stroke mis bout in the ring and suffered paralysis of his left side. That his why he lost his title

    Whether you find her attractive or not is obviously a personal choice but to start making comments about her "weight" is just stupid.. She is completely normal in that regard maybe not a 6.5 stone stick but she is definitely representative of an average Irish woman.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,641 ✭✭✭✭Elmo


    I don't think that this is a very nice thread.

    What if Laura Woods has a problem which could be very serious.

    She may not be a good presenter but let the comments be about her presenting skills not about her health.

    It's just coming across as very nasty.

    Perhaps this thread should be closed.
