Host Neil Curran writes:
‘This week on an extended Broadsheet on the Telly. Derek ponders the intelligence of his fellow panellst as Vanessa demonstrates US Presidential-level intelligence and I that of an intern.
The coalition of the (un)willing is examined. Are the Greens asleep on the job? Have FF paddled their canoe in to the rapids? Also discussed are face masks – enforcement, mask shaming and the science behind it.’
Broadcasting from the Costa Blanca area in Spain, Irish bar owners Hazel and Rory of Paddy’s Point (top) joined the panel to share their views on the summer holidays, lockdown in Spain and the outlook for the bar trade both in Spain and Ireland.
As always, Derek O’Donoghue and Vanessa Foran joined us with Vanessa streaming from the tropical hotspot of Brittas Bay [County Wicklow]
Rory and Hazel also share insight on how the the Spanish government have handled this year’s Selectividad, Spain’s equivalent of the Leaving Cert, much to Derek’s shock.
