He looks like perfect son in law material.

He has a job though. At least he's not a parasite

Brian Darcys face and handshake at the end of the interview speaks volumes for the type of interview TT facilitates. Tommy knows when to ask a question and when to allow silence to sit there. Thumbs up.

It was an incredible interview. Two very ‘human’ and spiritual sorts together.

The second interview is akin to getting the inside seat on a bus and being trapped in a conversation that you don't know how it began or where it's going.

Tommy Tiernan is phenominal. He actually listens and engages with every guest.

Its brilliant TV. People recognise hes putting himself out there with them and open up.

Tuning in. Anything's better than that love island crap.

sligojoek · 22-06-2019 10:02PM

Ah Tommy. Leave the misery slot out of it.

castletownman · 22-06-2019 10:07PM

Well that took an unexpected turn. An interesting character and I loved the D'Unbelievables.

But you can see Tommy's admiration for him at the end there.

Genuine question...does Tommy genuinely not know the guests?

Apparently not. It is very evident sometimes.

Not to suggest for one second that RTE look after their own :pac:

Christ I feel incredibly lazy all of a sudden.

Dante7 · 22-06-2019 10:24PM

Is there a better interviewer at letting people talk?

He really is a great , relaxed interviewer , Ryan Tubridy should Look , Listen and Learn from him .

I've completely zoned out while she's talking, now I've no idea what she is talking about

Call me Al · 22-06-2019 10:44PM

I think she's awesome.

Dante7 · 22-06-2019 10:47PM

She wasn't great. Tommy had to work hard to get her to her comfort zone.

donkeykong5 · 22-06-2019 10:51PM

Brian Darcy last week was very good .

I liked her, she was interesting. Intellectuall but very easy going and up for the laugh with Tommy. Came across as really into work.

Agree totally.

I always loved Jon Kenny (the good half 3/4 of the Unbelievables), good interview with Mark and Simone, good music. Loved the show tonight.

Good question. I'd genuinely like to believe he doesn't.

But he always ends an interview by thanking the interviewee by name. Sometimes their names are slightly obscure, and he gets the name spot on.

That makes me suspicious.

It's called a teleprompter mate.

The teleprompter doesn't do diction though, or does it ?

It's not uncommon for prompter scripts to have complicated names written phonetically.

sligojoek · 23-06-2019 01:20AM

I'll have to watch John Kenny when It's repeated. I just turned over when Tommy asked him about his illness.

I'd rather him than Pat Shortt any night. Nothing against Pat but I can't take the constant laughing at his own jokes. My father used to say the same thing about Tommy Cooper but he didn't realise that was part of the act.

Plumbthedepths · 23-06-2019 01:23AM

Generally can't stand talk shows but TT is a great interviewer of course the format helps .I had the mispleasure of being forced to watch the best of the LLS last night in my folks house , christ but Tubs is a bellend of the highest order.
