    Its her daughters and family I feel sorry for, surely she must have woken up yesterday morning and when she remembered what she said she must have been mortified. Disgraceful carry on by a woman of her age, a little bit of maturity is surely expected. I would say Linda Martin is enjoying this :-)

    Car crash TV. But I expected nothing less, to be fair, and she didn't disappoint :D

    Felt sorry for her fellow guests who didn't get a word in edgeways.

    If she suffered from embarressment she'd be long since retired.She just appears to overplay everything,certainly can't sing or act.How she attracts an audiance fails explanation

    She's "an institution". We're very fond (or at least RTE are) of our "institutions".

    Couldn't leave her out - imagine the squawking if she didn't get her five minutes :eek:

    The woman is a complete looper - RTE worse to even let her in to the car park in Montrose, let alone putting her on the show...

    ... hopefully this latest 'outburst' will convince those that take our licence money that she should never ever be allowed in front of a TV camera again...

    Up to Tubridy to shut her up and take control of the show.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,476 ✭✭✭2rkehij30qtza5


    She's just so uncooth and crude. By far the worst guest on Late Late on Fri night.
    And a little OT but did anyone think Liam Neeson was a little 'lubricated'/ worse for wear?

    Liam neeson was well and truly hammered, I just think its so unprofessional going onto a live chat show when they know they gave had a few too many. Nell McCaferty in the audience was out of order also, it brought a whole new meaning to car crash tv.

    y


    I think Nell is just sour because the women of today, dont need her, have evolved in their own, and cringe when she appears on TV, shes allready being dumped off the airwaves, so I think this might be the last time u see her onTV as well


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,397 ✭✭✭✭Degsy


    Late Late show has been a cringefest since Gaybo left..tubridy is an asinine clown,sucking up to guests and asking imbecilic questions.

    Absolutely despicable, the way she spoke about her ex...no class.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32 Anna Nicole


    She was a holy show and Tubridy should have shut her at the start, actually she shouldnt have been brought on at all! What about Sinead O Connor? She was as bad as any of them! I thought it was very rude of Liam Neeson to talk about enda kenny the way he did, with his fukin half American accent, the twit


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 931 ✭✭✭periodictable


    Just another past-it-mare RTE likes to trot out now and then, rather than sending her to the knacker's yard-she should have gone to the states years ago, made her money, enjoyed the life there, and we'd have been done with her.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,371 ✭✭✭Fuinseog


    according to whoopsadaisydoodles on after hours this the forum that cares and I see there is already a thread on Twink here.

    did anyone say a prayer for her when she was in danger of losing her mansion?
    what was the problem anyway. does she not have a job that could pay the bills and mortgage? she really must believe she has the common touch.

    was this last friday nights show. must watch it on the player.

    Twank is peddling her tripe in a book now. She should stick to baking cakes and maybe eat a few, they can be very satisfying!

    she seems desperate to get people to identify with her. i wonder does it work?

    I think its more that she is desperate that people can actually identify her at all.

    I was amazed to see that her daughter apparently is a member of some well known and successful singing troupe...could she not bail Mammy out? After all Mammy has done for her darling's career?

    plus 1.....tubridy is a clown. Embarassing stuff.....back to twink.....re her book, all comes across as a vengefest. She took her husband back but by god shes twisting the sword. Yeap, he was a pitiful man hooring around but hes certainly paying for it


  • Registered Users Posts: 3 erniedaman


    In todays Sunday Indo,Twink claimed a female RTE personality came on to her.
    Is Twink trying to sell a book or is there some other publicity she needs?
    Now the tongues will start wagging as to who this personality is.
    My money is on a newsreader.
    Any other suggestions?;)

    yes, my first thought was a newsreader person also

    as a panto star, i dont think twink would get too much interest from the more classically trained actors (eg people who appear regularly in the Irish soaps) but a newsreader may well fancy her , since they would be from different orbits within the RTE multiverse so no tempermental creative conflicts there.. It's just how i imagine the politics and sexual tensions might work within rte


  • Registered Users Posts: 606 ✭✭✭bastados


    I'd imagine there's tons of Butch carpet in RTE with big grabby hands for twink....cesspot of lunatics.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,447 ✭✭✭barney4001


    What makes her think anyone would want to read her life story:D:eek::pac::pac::pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 461 ✭✭mtjm


    I remember watching a play at the then Point Depot and Twink, Late Gerry Ryan and OTT were in it, oh and Barney too, anyway cousin's mate was on it and he got us backstage to meet the various acts etc.. met with Twink and she wore one of those knitted tops (old style ones that holes are big enough to see what's underneath) I could see she wasn't wearing any bra made it so obvious.


    maybe someone wanted to feel mellons and felt the wrong ones:eek:

    No I think she's just a weapon of the highest order.

    I'd be beyond mortified if I was her kid.


  • Registered Users Posts: 429 ✭✭havetoquit


    Have to say I found some of her revelations cringe worthy.

    Having said that, this could be due to my own inability to have the necessary insight to realize that she may have done so genuinely thinking that it could help others and who am I to judge her, if so.

    I think it unfortunate that she was unable to articulate her past suicidal tendencies without having to include such very private details regarding her girls, which must surely have been difficult for them to watch, not to speak of how it would also force them back to a period in their mother's life which they would most likely prefer to leave in the past. Perhaps not. I don't know them or how prepared they were for such revelations.

    She does come across as someone who has had a hard time and it shows, so regardless of her level of ability as an actress or an author for that matter I am sure that like everyone else, she does have a side to her, which because of how she projects herself publicly, we are unlikely to see.
