    Isn’t it great to hear a guest actually being allowed to talk and not being interrupted all the time with stupid questions. Darcy would be throwing questions at her.

    It must be one of the best shows on TV....such a great antidote to the staged Q&A on the chat show circuit with people peddling something like a book, film, something something

    Much prefer Tommy’s show to the same old D list celebs and RTE “personalities” interviewed on the Late Late every week. So much more like an interesting conversation you’d have in the pub.

    Imagine wooden tubs trying to do this

    Tubs would focus on the morbid, "what was the worst you had to embalm", "how do you feel when you are working on a child", "what about when it s bad crash".... 100% he would go down that path.

    Why do they flee so far away from their own country?

    This is grand. She had to leave Zimbabwe, but cant say why. No direct flights from Zimbabwe to Ireland. Another story with more questions than answers

    Disappointed rte sought out a refugee. No doubt they screened a few during their search and chose this woman. Has to be a good believable case and nothing about the chancers.

    She's well versed and coached in the finances line. He interrupted her there but she pressed through with her point about the cost of asylum centres. That's good coaching.

    In addition to fleeing danger or persecution, there's also the long-term idea of wanting to be able to make a decent life. And Ireland, for all its faults, has a reputation as a nice, safe place to bring up children.

    Read somewhere today that it was a fake news story.
    We have 10.5K homeless of our own.

    It would be great if they asked these questions. To give a better understanding of their plight. But RTE won't be asking any hard questions.

    This is utter ****e. She had to have changed flights in London, Paris or somewhere similar. Why not seek asylum there? Why come to Ireland, all we have to offer is the lowest rejection and deportation rates in Europe and the highest social welfare?
