    You didn't see Prime Time tonight then.......A real gem of that "certain type of person".....

    Just watching the repeat now on RTE now.
    The hatred and disdain there for each other is depressing.

    Justine McCarthy presenting tonight - a united Ireland is the topic tonight. Silly season already?

    Feck sake, united Ireland ??
    The viewing numbers must be dropping with Vincent being off.

    Topic is odd; could have had any number of discussions on current affairs. Justine McCarthy's speaking voice is too mannered for TV; her enunciation is more suitable for radio presentation although even then there's little personality coming through. The opposite of Derbhail McDonald in many ways.

    Industriousness is a word not used much Martina.

    This is a pointless conversation. What about Ivor Callely??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Lordy - Martina Devlin and Justine McCarthy are two of the slowest, most deliberate speakers I know of.... not exactly the stuff of riveting TV debate. Don't think I'll last long watching this....

    Hope someone knocks that silly grin off the Unionist lad's face. Very annoying grin.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,351 ✭✭✭✭Harry Angstrom


    Unionists are deluded. They live in a bygone age bubble while "the mainland" have moved on. Most British people couldn't give a damn about Northern Ireland, and the British Government look upon it as a drain on their resources, yet every year they don their bowler hats and pledge allegiance to their Queen. Utterly deluded people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 55,069 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    She's not a patch on Derbhail in fairness. Getting it hard to stay awake.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,973 ✭✭✭RayM


    I'm no fan of Republicanism or Nationalism, but the north is 'British' in the same way as an Irish-themed bar in Boston is 'Irish'. Republicans and Loyalists have far more in common with each other than they do with either the rest of Ireland or Britain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,351 ✭✭✭✭Harry Angstrom


    I wonder if that guy is related to Donal McIntyre? He's the head off him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,585 ✭✭✭✭Lady Chatterton


    Justine is a great print journalist but she is poor enough at presenting this programme. Maybe she'll become more comfortable with the role over the coming days.

    A brother.

    Justine does not look like she is talking into the camera with a lot of much confidence to be honest.

    They are talking about Fr Brendan Smith now instead of Ivor Callely.

    I dunno... Vincent's been presenting it for over six years, and he hasn't got the hang of it yet.

    This woman who thinks it's not all about economics.. who let clueless on tv..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,466 ✭✭✭✭hotmail.com


    It's quite bizarre that Sean Brady still shows up at state events.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 700 ✭✭✭mikeyjames9


    cardinal Brady should resign

    Tomorrow night's topic: "The French Revolution - successful or not? Or is it too early to judge?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,585 ✭✭✭✭Lady Chatterton


    Justine's jacket looks like it was made from cotton tea towels.

    The treatment of those victims that received that barbaric operation have been treated terribly by this government.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,351 ✭✭✭✭Harry Angstrom


    If an unemployed person goes to prison their social welfare is stopped. Doesn't apply to the political elite on their massive social welfare payments, though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,351 ✭✭✭✭Harry Angstrom


    If a politician is convicted of a crime whilst in office, they should lose all pension entitlements. The fact that Ray Burke is still in receipt of a huge pension is a disgrace.

    I like Mick Clifford, I'll have to tune in tomorrow night to check out his presenting skills. Imagine if John Drennan hosted the show, now that really would be hilarious :D
