    Former Embarrassing Bodies' and You Should Really See a Doctor host Dr Pixie McKenna is one of the guests on tonight's Ray D'Arcy Show. As well as recalling her days on those shows, she'll be telling Ray what young Irish people really think about sex and sexual health, ahead of her no holds barred new RTÉ show Pixie's Sex Clinic especially in a week when it was revealed that new cases of HIV were up by a third last year along with other sexually transmitted infections.

    By way of a complete contrast (we sincerely hope!) Father Brian D'Arcy will be dropping in to look back on his 47 years as a priest, and the showbizzy cleric will also share his memories of the late Terry Wogan and Frank Kelly.

    Republic of Telly star and stand-up comedian Joanne McNally will be updating Ray and viewers with news of her search for her birth parents, as well as reflecting on her career in comedy.

    New York hotelier John Fitzpatrick will provide his unique view of the upcoming American presidential election, his friendship with the Clintons, and being a member of one of Ireland's best-known hotel dynasties.

    Music will be provided by up and coming Irish band State Lights.

    The Ray D'Arcy Show, Saturday, RTÉ One, 10.05pm

    "So Pixie, it's only 148 days since you were on the Late Late Show plugging another of your RTE programmes.

    Are you Des Bishop in disguise?"


    Edit: and Father Brian Darcy was on the LLS 169 days ago. Is he Ray's Dad?

    Maybe it would be more interesting if Pixie was to be interviewed dressed as an actual pixie - sitting on a toadstool, wearing a pointy hat with a bell on the end.

    Something for RTE to think about :)

    I like it, perhaps they could drag Pixie Lott in and they could sing Debaser.

    Ray should bring that famous actor Kevin Hinds on the show. Or Tim Cruise.

    Brian D'Arcy was on the LLS a few weeks ago, talking about Terry Wogan. Or was that some other programme? Or Liveline?

    Anyway he's one of the ubiquitous people who do the RTE merry go round.... D'Arcy, LLS, Marian Finucane, Miriam O'Callaghan, Liveline etc. etc.

    Two more people dragged out of the canteen, Joanne what's her name and Pixie McKenna, so technically that's three RTE bodies on chatting to Ray tonight.

    Christ, but someone, somewhere in RTE must realise that we need one chat show at the weekend, not two.

    This all the way, the country is so small there's not enough home grown tallent to support 2 shows and most of the big overseas stars are only over for movie promotions so can only do a midweek pre recorded show. Even Norton and Ross combined are only on air for less than 2 hours.

    I just hope Pixie puts Ray right about his incorrect ignorant and pompous rant this week on the radio saying that sugar causes diabetes.

    There's no way a doctor should be called Pixie.

    The whole show will be worthwhile if he once - just once - calls her Pixiehead.

    Can't wait for it. It was so sad when he retired and heartbreaking when he died. When we beat Bosnia to qualify for this summer's Euros, my timeline was full of 'Bill would love this' type sentiments. A true legend, never forgotten.

    The last time I saw Father D'Arcy, he was on the Late Late Show Country Music Special.

    To this day, I have no idea why.

    Well I nearly crashed the car spluttering so I wasn't paying attention after that.
    If I did, might have sued for grevious bodily stupidity.

    Ah Brian D'Arcy, the 'loose canon/renegade' of the Vatican empire. Contained dissent permitted by his superiors, as part of his establishment as the Pope himself.
