But of course, there is no crime in France.

Yes it does. Thats the point of the new broadcasting charge, so people can't get around not getting a TV license by not having a physical TV but watching RTE on iPads and things.

i hope it will bring down the cost of the licence

Not while Clouseau is on the case.

"All those memories lost..."

Did someone wipe her memory?

If it was so precious why did she bring her fathers antique camera equipment with her?

JonathanAnon · 27-08-2013 01:17PM

Joe Duffy would be right in there:

Joe Duffy: "so he has thousands of euros worth of antique photography and recording equipment"
Caller: "Yeah Joe, :-( "
Joe Duffy: " And does YOUR FATHER have a recording of Jim Larkin's voice"..

Dan Jaman · 27-08-2013 01:17PM

I totally missed it - was it a shyte old Nikon?

swingking · 27-08-2013 01:18PM

Did they say which Avoca?

Sittingpretty · 27-08-2013 01:19PM

Current caller sounds like Ringo Starr narrating Thomas the Tank Engine

Roger_007 · 27-08-2013 01:19PM

Banjaxed? I hate that technical language!

JM Skipton · 27-08-2013 01:20PM

He sounds like he should be on the TV License ad "we've heard all the excuses!"

Thank you!

Dan Jaman · 27-08-2013 01:20PM

Drawn-out explanation of why he doesn't have a telly.
In my case, it was just being fed up with all the shyte on all the channels all the time.

JonathanAnon · 27-08-2013 01:21PM

I may head on and try to get the exhaust sorted, it sounds like a boy racer car at the moment.... :-(

Should I dress up in the appropriate clothing to match the car

syklops · 27-08-2013 01:21PM

Current trend: People with no TV have too much time on their hands and are getting annoyed with a throw away comment by Pat Rabbitte.

Dan Jaman · 27-08-2013 01:21PM

Fecking Amish.

bottlebrush · 27-08-2013 01:21PM

i have a tv but most of the time there is nothing on worth watching especially rte showing repeats during the summer. i think i should have a waiver on my tv licence...

CorsendonkX · 27-08-2013 01:21PM

Is Myles Duggan PBH uncle?

He does though, doesn't he?

I can just here him launch into "it was Summer on Sodor, that morning Percy was working the branch line...."

JM Skipton · 27-08-2013 01:22PM

Is this Bertie putting on an english accent?

Lapin · 27-08-2013 01:22PM

"So many payments can be made online now".

At least his TV Licence isn't one of them.

Dan Jaman · 27-08-2013 01:24PM

What pissed me off about Rabbitte's remark was the subtext to it, that if you don't have a tv licence you must be a dodger. Not the first time he's said that.

bottlebrush · 27-08-2013 01:25PM

what about cave women. think i will ring in and complain that i have been discriminated against

JonathanAnon · 27-08-2013 01:25PM

You COULDNT get a more low tech life than his?

How exactly is he communicating with Philip?

?

syklops · 27-08-2013 01:25PM

I could get internet on my mobile over 10 years ago. Not being able to work the internet on your phone is not the same as not having it on it.

Lapin · 27-08-2013 01:25PM

Has to be living in West Cork or Connemara.

Dan Jaman · 27-08-2013 01:25PM

Prison visiting? Nah, they got tellies in there.

JM Skipton · 27-08-2013 01:25PM

These callers would make you think about the argument for rolling out broadband around the country

JonathanAnon · 27-08-2013 01:26PM

I bet he has a 16 year old Thai girlfriend..

Roger_007 · 27-08-2013 01:26PM

Does ANYONE own a TV at all. I'm beginning to wonder?

Lapin · 27-08-2013 01:27PM

I'm emailing Joe as we speak !
