    It should go to an unknown person,someone on the up. That's how Gay got it. It's the only way to build a legend. All legends start at zero, you're at nothing appointing a star.
    It needs a young fresh talented intelligent person.

    Dylan Moran channeling his Bernard Black character. I'd pay good money to see him swig wine and lambast the guests!

    I have watched The Late Late Show three times in the last ten years. But if the likes of Sean Moncrieff took over, I'd probably start watching it again.

    Grainne Seoige, without question.

    I know she is not the most likeable of people at times but I think that gives her an edge that the show often needs. Her interviewing technique overall is in a different league to the current clown.She can be lighthearted when it's appropriate and have a laugh but also when it's needed, she can also probe and grill a guest that deserves and needs to be, unlike Tubridy. She has been wasted on the crap she has done so far. I know many would disagree but I thought she did fine at Sky, the morning slot is tough as it requires a sort of faux upbeat tone which I don't think suited her.

    Grainne Seoige - yes, yes, yes and yes. I like her a lot. She is brilliant.

    How about taking a risk & getting someone a bit controversial to do it, stir things up a bit. Thinking particularly of someone like John Waters or Eoghan Harris. People would definitely tune into that, even if only to be annoyed/offended by them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    If there looking for an even bigger wanker then Tubs pick Ray D'arcy!!

    I have to say that the OP has done exceptionally well to come up with a poll of 7 names where Linda Martin is by far and away the best option on it.

    Thanks! Mission Accomplished, just glad nobody spotted it! :pac:

    She wouldn't have the time what with her presenting 483 other shows on RTE at any given time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,083 ✭✭✭Iranoutofideas


    Craig Doyle. They deserve each other.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 464 ✭✭The Th!ng


    RTE should arrange to have Carmen Electra appear on the show some night as a guest, have her kick Tubridy off the set, and she take over as the next presenter there and then. Watch the ratings soar.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,234 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    George Fcuking Hook would be my choice. I wouldn't watch it though as I cant stand the aul fat bastard but hopefully the program would crash and burn and him with it.

    My second choice would be Twink, the mangey aul wizened windbag for the exact same reason as above.

    Sean Moncreiff
    if the likes of Sean Moncrieff took over, I'd probably start watching it again.

    He'd still have to deal with the weekly 'horrible affliction' slot where they bring on some poor sod who has survived multiple cancers/diseases/sexual abuse, or who has had a loved one murdered/diseased/abused, just to remind us Irish people that we're lucky to have things like running water, sunlight, and heads.

    Only voted podgey coz there was no option for nidge,fran or tommy...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,166 ✭✭✭Fr_Dougal


    Sile and Grainne Seoige. But they have to wear bikinis and tag in and out during interviews.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,921 ✭✭✭Remmy


    Lottie Ryan. At least then we'd know she made it in through merit and the sweat on her brow.
