He's so deluded he's probably expecting an invite.

Ah yeah Rory cowen who came across like a really dislikeable person that one time I heard him. I have to say the celebrity quality in Ireland is fairly poor.

Ok I'm beginning to side with the conspiracy theorist's....the first picture had Joe doing the pointy finger thing for no obvious reason and now Marty is doing the same thing in this photograph with the pointy finger for no good reason either.

Beam me up Scotty.......quick !

Looks like the same gear, just the lighting has changed.

In a radio interview whilst promoting his autobiography a number of years ago Steve Coogan revealed that the inspiration for the Alan Partridge character was none other than............Pat Kenny. Coogan is of Irish descent (Irish parents, raised Irish Catholic in the Yew Kay) and used to spend his summers in the West of Ireland (Mayo from memory, though it may have been in another part) - he credits this partly with his ability to do accents, and Irish accents in particular. There wasn't much by way of entertainment in those days save for RTE 1 TV and Radio 1 and 2FM....hence how he was exposed to Kenny. It's obviously greatly exaggerated in the Partridge character, though there are still some similarities remaining.

I AM NOT MAKING THE ABOVE UP BTW!

Have said book, just have to get around to reading it. I suspect it may be better tan Joe's buke about himself.

I can't imagine what Alan Partridge would sound like if he had been exposed to Joe Duffy in his formative years. I'd suspect he'd decide he's just so ridiculous it couldn't possibly be lampooned further, so to speak.

Hard to say - in the first one I'd take a stab at something near 4K, and the second probably 3K wiv a golden filter on a bounce flash, just to pull it out of my arse, like.

4K? Dat's very dear for a light so to speak.......dat money wood be better spent on 75mins (incl. breaks) on Joe taking phone calls.

Be careful now, Rory doesn't like being criticised. He might call you a vile creature, like he called the woman who dared to ask about the finances of a charity........

We're still being bombarded with ads for "Liveline with Joe Duffy" even though it's not back for a week and Joe's not back for a fortnight.

This REALLY bugs me. Same with the ads for The Ray D'Arcy Show I heard during the week as well, and no sign of Ray til the new year. You tune in for the show that they are advertising and they have some stand in. What an absolute waste of money. New rule: if you're not in, then you don't get your f**king show advertised, you overpaid shower of talentless spongers.
The level of mediocrity that is indulged and cherished in RTE is beyond belief.

sligojoek

The majority of ads on RTE are for RTE stuff, RTE supporting the arts, or public announcement stuff. They pick a soundbite from a Joe/Marian/ Ray/ Sean/ Ryan show and play it ad infinitum .

On a bit of an offshoot, I believe the RTE S Orchestra off on a tour of China.

Have to be paid for by the Chinese surely?

Cost a fair auld whack?

De FINAL END OF DE YEAR DAT IS DE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2-17 and dat Joe Duffy Wurkday Calculator and dat so to speak totals:

Wurkdays in 2-17 and dat: 251
Joe Shows: 196***
No Show Joe Shows: 56 - or 11.2 weeks off!
PBH Shows: 31
D'Omen Shows: 14
AN Udder Shows: 8
De Budget Show instead of Da Lahv Lahn and dat: 1
De Funny Fryday on de Eve of Christmas and dat*: 1
De St. Stephen'sessssssssssssssss Day Bestest Deaths a De Year Xtravaganza and dat**: 1
No Shows at all because of De Chrimbo and dat: 3

Tanks to RTÉ's "commercial sensitivity" and the real fear (:rolleyes:) dat de top talent wood be poached by de BBC and NBC etc. (:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:), we will only have to wait until 2-19 to figure out "de fee per show" structure and arrangement. Dis duz be de only way to see if Noel has managed to secure a raise for de drop in listenership (as seems to be the way RTÉ wurks and dat so to speak) dat did befell de show in recent JNLRs so to speak. I have long suspected Joe took a drop in total remuneration to just below the €400K mark purely to make the optics of de farcical situation appear less offensive to the ordinary punter so to speak, but this is balanced out with an increase in breakeen's so to speak AND an increase in fees per show. So less shows for ballpark the same outrageous fees.

Notes:
* Technically not a Wurkday as it falls on a Sunday and dat so not included in de Wurkday total but included in Joe's total even dough he's probably on 3 x de usual fees and dat and it's nuttin' but a junket for him and his mates at de taxpayer's expense so to speak.
**pre-recorded so to speak and darefore not included in de Wurkday total and dat but again included in Joe's total so he's benefitting from creative accounting and dat.
***196 shows recorded on 195 days

Following on from Dubalin "is an unadulterated kip..the city is being turned into pound shops'"
A judge edicts that:
“I think it’s nothing short of a disgrace. Temple Bar is a disgrace to Ireland. You go up there first thing in the morning over any weekend and you see vomit and puke. These brawls are going on constantly.”
