According to Christmas RTE Guide there will be no play TV on the night of December 24 and 25, an on December 31.

Back again on January 1. Imagine having to spend new years in eastern europe.

What also gave a little giggle is the RTE guide people got the TV3 and UTV schedule mixed up for Stephen's day

Any four letter word using the letters by reading along the lines

PLE
USA
RES

Edit: Every caller seems to have won something. calls are quite regular, but how long will that last.

Designer bin liner, NICE:p

She starting to waffle now, open line getting harder to find me thinks. which is a pity as the more calls they take, the more callers would be generated.

Fiona: Are you over 18?
Allison: Yes.
Fiona: How old are you?
Allison: 18
Fiona: What's your date of birth?
Allison (slowly): 24th December 1991

There followed a short discussion between production and Fiona.
End result: You're nearly 18 but rules are rules!

billy the squid · 09-12-2009 03:12AM

Purse.

too much waffle, not enough calls.

.BrianJM · 09-12-2009 03:23AM

Agreed.

This would have been the ideal night for my cable to be 'down'.

billy the squid · 09-12-2009 03:24AM

This game could have been the best one they have ran, were it not for the long intervals between calls.

she just gave away a possible answer.

The Other Mother is waffling again, and no calls coming in.

billy the squid · 09-12-2009 03:58AM

Allison's parents will surely be mortified when they find out about this, if they haven't found out already.

See Eileen Nolan from Carrigrohane won again last night. (Since July and November she won 3,950euro). She some lucky lady????

Our man in Havana · 09-12-2009 08:36PM

I'm wondering that myself....that's a lot of money to let one person win in such a short space of time. And it sure is not like them to be so generous. It's very interesting!

I'd say she's picked to win alot, so when TV3 are getting grilled again in the future, they can turn around and say "we've had one caller that has won multiple times and claimed thousands of euros in prize money".
Of course it's rubbish that gives a false impression, but it's a good sound-bite. Win Win on the PR side for them, and costs them nothing as they'd be giving it away anyway.

There could never be a "purely random" selection for calls - they would have to have some control over them.
They get thousands of calls every night - no way one caller could be that fortunate.
