    Who would be eating a substantial meal at 11.30 at night?

    It's a one hour and forty five minute sitting. A burger and chips would probably take 15 mins to eat.

    Was it not a recorded interview? Sure I heard Marty saying they were closing at 9 or 10pm.

    Nuala dressed up for 1990s trick-or-treating. This is ridiculous, I thought the pub was bad enough, are these gimmicks supposed to make up for the lack of a studio audience?

    My guess is that all these studio gimmicks on her show over the last few weeks are a result of a whole Fair City set and staging crew sitting around RTE on 90k a head doing nothing. So Claine said llads, Ive got an idea and suddenly her studio can be dressed up like a Covid isolation unit or a pub or a hairdressers

    Did you see him sing a mad song, jumping up and down as if on double-dose speed, about recovery from cancer on the Late Late Show?

    He was estranged from his family-I suspect they all found him unbearable.

    The comments on the thread were hilarious. It kind of came out of nowhere as he launched into this friended anthem that went something like Cancer, Healing, Recovery! belted our repetitiously as he bounced up and down the steps of the audience.

    Careful now, Ive only recently realised that womens hairdressing is similar to rocket science and brain surgery combined. How else could Irish hairdressers get away with charging 150 quid for a colour and cut?

    Cheers. Couldn't find that when I searched.
    CBL started well. Then they lost that producer. Show deteriorated with next producer and now it's just a farce. Defo 'Fast Shows' C9 level now.

    Claire Byrne feels a bit like rummaging in the metal containers filled with random stuff in Aldi/Lidl. There's all sorts of stuff thrown in on top of each other, some of it's good, most of it is worthless. How's it all ended up together is a bit of a Mystery. If Poundland became a current Affairs programme.

    Hair-do! Skype chat! Epidemiologists on sowing machines, having a laugh! HA, HA, HA! Terrible tragedy: human interest! Serious guy in a suit talking about seriousness! Brian Kennedy didn't have sex in London for years! HA, HA, HA!

    I think the only indisputably good thing about The Late Late, for all its lameness, is its crazy tonal shifts over the course of two hours: high-brow, low-brow, serious discussion and silly stupid stuff: it all gets thrown in there. Claire Byrne takes it to the next extreme: the items just don't follow each other, they're often all going on at once in the same room.
