    FYP.

    The irony is the girls giving out about the accent had almost indecipherable accents themselves.

    every now and then, a thread will pop up on boards.ie having a pop at Irish women and how the behave in nightclubs/dating scenarios, their insecurities, lack of grace/elegance, little interest in the big issues, being a bit dull, bland, superficial etc etc

    the debate usually gets heated and the guy gets called bitter, sexist, misogynist etc by the right-on internet posse - but this show really is horrifying evidence that internet guy x may just be onto something, I'm just glad I'm out of that

    I will concede however that the format of the show makes it incredibly difficult for any lady to seem half-way interesting/classy etc. but the British show certainly paints their ladies in a better light, they seem funnier and more at ease with themselves and up for a laugh which is strange because that's what we are supposed to be famous for

    therefore could it be said we are just not suited to the tv genre and our sense of craic and gift of the gab just doesn't translate to tv, our ladies are too self-conscious, too low on confidence, too insecure to let their real personalities shine through.....i'd also suggest that the casting directors haven't done a great job or perhaps we just have less of that show-off eager for attention mindset that others have...or maybe just maybe I am taking all this far too seriously and reading too much into what is essentially a low-brow piece of tv junk

    I know some people are blaming this on editing but if you say something mean and something nice you can't claim editing if there are so many mean comments. You need to be very naive if you think you can go on one of these shows and say what’s being said and then expect people to have a favourable opinion of you.
    The number of blackouts also seem very high. If this is only a bit of a laugh why would the guys not get a sympathy vote? If there was girl up there I don't think I could let her have a blackout unless there was something really weird about her. It just seems so humiliating.

    have a look at the take me out UK thread, seriously, this whole 'only irish girls do blackouts' is pure nonsense, how many times did it come down to one or two girls, even for that 'golden adonis' they had on it?

    and then there IS that reversal where the guy gets to turn the girl's lights out, but some posters seem to be forgetting about that one.

    sure i didnt think think the guy from limerick the other night when he walked out to 'horse outside' i expected there'd be a mass turnout of lights, because that whole 'limerick knack' nonsense is just so, so overdone in the media and is nothing like limerick in general. surprisingly enough, only ONE girl turned out her light because of the song.

    then he did some football tricks and i thought 'i dont care how good looking he is, the football tricks is pure cheese, blackout surely', but no, he STILL went on to the last round, where HE had his choice of girls, and the humiliated head on the one he didnt pick, honestly cant say i was surprised myself, i'd have chosen the girl he picked too! :)

    but just on the whole accents and the girl from dublin who made the comment that he was a bogger, that really shouldn't surprise anyone around these forums, sure to anyone in AH, 'town' is always dublin, and it wouldnt be the first time i've heard a girl from dublin refer to anywhere outside the city as bogger country (personally found it amusing myself, but that's just me, i suppose given the fact i actually AM a bogger from the midlands! :D).

    I think the Irish one is well ahead of the English one on blackouts, four out of five in the first episode. The guys also don't have a go at the girls when they turn off her light.
