    I would not be shocked if there was some sort of bonus out there for the different circumstances they are working in

    Lord Jesus Christ, I think Radio One should change it's name to Death FM at this stage. RTE's obsession with death is ridiculous.

    Straight out of the Joe Duffy handbook.

    " Are there pictures of the children around the house?"

    Made a decision this am ...Brenner....”No media of any kind today.. zero until 1800hrs”.

    So far it’s been an excellent decision.

    Try it.

    (Apart from social media)

    Well that was a riveting five minutes of radio from ray. He promoted an eight hour performance on lyric fm but hadn't checked(shocking I know) if it was on Sunday night to Monday morning or when exactly and went to talk to a caller named John and even though John said "hello ray", ray didn't hear him and said the caller wasn't there. I mean talk about professionalism lads. Joke shop.

    All I can say is sweet Jeebus.... what a total tosser he is coming across as.

    Totally unable to conduct the interview with any degree of smoothness.

    Sorry to have to say this but this guy is just not able to handle this gig.

    Out Of. His. Depth.

    Sorry.

    God but his life is very dull. He's got a video of two birds riding acording to himself. A young bird flew into his window and we were regaled with a boring retelling of what happened during which he made the dinner(porridge most likely) and it was as exciting as it sounds.

    Professional as ever Darcy. Your not fit to lace his shoes. Then you ignorantly cut him off.

    Ray was delighted to cut him off so he could get onto talking about Dermots to do list and Jenny nagging him about the wires behind the tv box.

    The rule is that you are not allowed to have mass gatherings Ray, so I'd say The Ray Darcy TV Show will be fine.

    Yet again Ray proves beyond all reasonable doubt that he cannot handle this gig.

    Beyond reasonabl doubt.

    In his comfort zone talking about musicians playing in their own homes.

    Totally out of his depth talking to Terry Waite.

    Back in his comfort zone talking to the clown who came on next.


    Keep saying it, if the hairdressers were open ......... suitable for hairdresser radio only.

    Nothing personal but not able for the gig.......RTE Gold material only, and that’s not a slight on the people there.

    Terry Waite. To be fair, the line wasnt the best - everybodys at home, why not call landlines? People still got em, right? Anyway ray says we'll have to let you go terry and get a better line, but you knew he'd no intention of getting him back on.

    He was on a landline according to Ray but the fault was at Terry’s side!!!

    Seemed totally disinterested..

    “Having one of those days” as the pre quiz music failed to fire. Just an hour after the intro didn’t work either. Content is bad, production even worse.
