Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

The incoming DG thanked him for his “diligence, energy and insight”.
So the conversation was are you resigning or am i firing you
Maybe Rory will team up with Moya Doherty and take TSTM on a world tour, they might even make more money than Riverdance 😁
May why some were cancelled not why tickets had not been sold
rereg posts deleted and also any replies to those posts. Happening a lot. We be on thread Part Deux if they weren't
Rory has jumped off the sinking ship
Riiiigggghhht!!!! I believe that
I know his gone but should still do it. Others should be able to answer
Two out of 3 on the panel on Sunday game belong to nk management
These people now need to be called out on NK representation. And I mean everyone
He met with DG today…
Was he quizzed already?
No comment from Simon on brother Rory
My guess is that are 2 separate contracts.
The agent is only the middle man for the person (or more then likely the company) to get a job and then they would get there cut.
I don't think it's the same as been a subcontractor
Hope I am making sense here
11,000 tickets sold. 9,000 given away for free!
You are all over the shop on this thread.
According to this link - some of the cast members fell unwell leading to the cancellations

I watched the clip form the late late show, those 3 girls signing and it was painful to watch ... I assumed it was just a terrible show ...
Concerning the talent agency - who exactly are the talent contracted to?
if their contracts are solely with the talent agency and then the talent agency “sub contracts” them to the national broadcaster.
could this be a realistic scenario?
BS. They didn't sell the projected tickets you muppet. The couldn't give them away quick enough. Coveney cowardly running away from responsibility. Telling.
Have some posts disappeared?
The reason TSTM was not a success was that a lot of the cast members were unwell in December 2022 - this led to the cancellation of many shows.
There are no shadows on the floor. Physics is even different at NKM.
As I suggested above maybe some of the €2.2m was funnelled to friends and family or associates who were "consultants" like Ryans €75k consultant fees.
Well if RTE stay operating like they have historically you won't have to wait 10 years. And then you can watch it on repeat about every 3-4 months.
Exactly. Why has he resigned now?
Is it to prevent further leakage about TSTM? Is it to prevent him having to go in front of another Oireachtas Committee?
One wonders. It's all very #intriguing.
Here we go. The liars are running for the hills. Don't accept Rory's resignation until he answers all the questions. Coward.
He must be expecting tougher questioning ahead. Time to resign and feign illness. Does that mean that he no longer thinks TSTM has a future, or has he left it in safe hands.
They're all there
There were clients on that trip, yes. The people Geraldine O'Leary refused to name re. the Japan trip are not RTE staff (or contractors).
Those that were on that trip are Senior Executives (Director/MD Level) of suppliers/business partners to RTE.
It's not to the best of my knowledge. it's fact. These names will come out eventually I believe. I can't see how they will be kept secret - in fact I'm surprised they haven't been named yet.
Photoshop is going to have its work cut out.
Are they not different people? No sign of Tubs, PK, KT etc.
Terrible photoshop again. No composite work on grain, colour grading or matching. No relighting of the subjects to fit into the environment not to mention changing the colours of their clothes for cohesion. Also some subjects need to resized.
(the stuff I throw up here is just scutter to get my point across by the way)
