    Neither can Duffy but it didn’t stop him “writing” a buke and getting it printed in Germany.

    please say Ray hasn't really bought a 90k land rover ???
    their brand image ruined !

    Missed that, in fact missed a lot of the show thank goodness as it’s not even a laugh. I thought Ray would be all preachy about clean green high moral ground image and would get a car that would run on porridge or at least a hybrid if even a top end one. Or do Landrover do a hybrid now?

    "And you will see people doing the twelve pubs of Christmas....... which I don't agree with".



    Which bit Ray, the twelve pubs part, the Christian festival Christmas part, or the people having fun part?



    He really is a joyless little man.

    He's being torn a new arsehole. He's trying so hard to put words in the interviewee's mouth.

    Ray thinks of child sexual abuse when he hears the bells?

    I'm not a huge fan of the church, but all I think is "when's the news starting".

    Ray has serious issues! :eek:

    Once again D'Arcy has demonstrated the reasons why he should never be allowed to host such a radio show.

    I'm more offended by the way he treats the Nuacht team than I am by the Angelus.

    That woman has said it right - if you don't like it Ray, go to another station! Was this not a problem for Ray when he signing up his 400K thousand euro contract, or at what point did this become a problem for him?

    Which is the bigger issue.... having D'Arcy on every day for an hour and a half, or a couple of minutes of the Angelus before the news? Lots of people offended by him, is he offering to give up his job?

    Guy from Religious programming in RTÉ on talking about the Angelus. Ray thinks of child abuse when he hears the bells.

    Then he goes for a piss during the (late) Nuacht, comes back out of breath, and is now trying to catch up on texts he has missed. A true professional.

    Did he actually get abused himself as a chisler by clergy one ponders? Can’t recall if he said he had been. Would make his stance understandable, however as a national broadcast host he would need to realise his show is not all about himself.

    The argument about it being on one station is a bloody good point Ray.

    Haha they cut the Nuacht out of the replay and he sounds goosed out of breath.
