He doesn't give credits at the end of the show, but I have a feeling it's Will Hanafin.

They came as a whole package of talent.

I've heard Will Hanafin being credited as the producer of Drivetime recently.

I thought Will had moved on to better things in the "machine ". As far as I know his missus( her name escapes me

) is also gone,or probably on a career break .

I’d go on a career break if my other half was paid €450,000 a year!

He must have a holiday home in Waterford or Dunmore East he regularly talks about that area and is spotted there lots too.
Maybe that'd the mortgage he gives out about!

Ray comfortably slotting into the ghoul role vacated by Duffy. Misery city that place

Really Sad story, must be really hard for her with 3 young kids. My wife follows her on Instagram and she gets awful abuse on her account apparently.

Thought that myself last week. Maybe he had a minor stroke at some stage. Someone I know did and sometimes has a similar "slur".

Who produces the show, that's a very good question.

The show is actually produced by throwing lots of words into a big tank. Out the bottom of the tank comes a large pipe. These words travel along this large intestine like pipe for a couple of hours where they are processed. Out the end of this pipe pops the Ray D’Arcy Show.

I doubt it's that well organised.

That’s a sign for her to get offline then..Attention seeking works both ways..

Yep. What I find difficult about his pontification is that some of us are so down/anxious/confused when out and about now are utterly unable to be "kind". We know we *should* be so then end up feeling worse.

Now I wouldn't be nasty to anyone but I don't think I am particularly kind to strangers at the moment either because I am so caught up in my own head or I feel just a little threatened re: COVID. First time I have realised that and admitted that hmmmm.

Re Traveller interview - for once I am seeing Ray doing the right thing and properly questioning the interviewees, ie asking are a lot of their problems not the making of the community itself.

Yes that was nicely done. One of the panel members said that is what she felt and then he went along that line of questioning. Very insightful and interesting piece actually.

This sort of reminds me of the South Park episode where Cartman finds out Family Guy is written by manatees :pac:

ShamNNspace · 16-07-2020 4:08pm

Ah God, a woman there on holiday in kilarney was asked by a couple to take their photo but was afraid to touch the camera and refused. that's just sad

NIMAN · 17-07-2020 3:06pm

Did he look threatening with his mask and baseball hat?

As threatening as a little short man can I guess.

He really is the most boring man alive isn't he.

Home alone without the wife and kids and he'll spend his week alone eating curry he makes on the Monday night and watching old films.

Does he have any friends at all I wonder?

"1994 I remember Paul McGrath was everywhere Schillaci was."
An exceptional achievement given that Schillaci wasn't even at the World Cup in 1994.

Finished playing with Italy in 1991.

Its like when he was on today fm with mairead talking about the classic scene in only fools and horses that also never happened.

Odyssey 2005 · 21-07-2020 4:30pm

Gerry Daly sounds like he rather be in front of a firing squad. Dont really blame him.

generalgerry · 21-07-2020 7:38pm

I checked back to make sure that it wasn't me who was the gobsh1te.

Ray: "It must have been something to do with 1994 because that was the year when we went to USA 94 and we went to the Giant's Stadium, and Ray Houghton scored against Italy we beat them 1-0, and Paul McGrath played out of his skin and he had the game of his life. He defended like four men. There was one stage in the game where Schillaci came at him and he defended, and he came at him again and he defended again, and he was on the ground and he got up and defended again and I think he hit it off the side of his head and it was just amAzing stuff, amAzing stuff"

Amazing stuff indeed Ray. Oh, just one more thing - it never f**king happened.

How much money is he making per year again?

That hasn't been mentioned in a while. What happened to them auditioning female stars for the Saturday night job? And what happened to the next season of The Ray D'Arcy Show is that all gone for good.

I was hoping that he would have Jack Nicholson on again ("wasn't my idea") and maybe he could get Toto Schillaci on to talk about his experiences in the 1994 World Cup.

LOL!

Wasn't there some plan to bring in Angela Scanlon for the Saturday Night TV show, guess it got shelved under the circumstances.

Either or, depends on who you ask. The lad's stealing a living at taxpayer's expense. I wouldn't mind if he were competent and professional. But that's enough fantasy talk..
