Uncanny.

Love/Hate alumni Aiden Gillen and Tom Vaughan Lawlor as Charles Haughey and PJ Mara In Charlie (top) the BIG drama in the RTÉ Autumn schedule launched today [see below].

Needs more sneer.

Meanwhile…

    Let’s hope Gillen can stick to one Irish accent per scene. And preferably one from Ireland rather than Hollywood.

          Carcetti annoyed me and that was before I knew he was Irish so you could say I was even more objective.

          He was grand. But everything Else I’ve seen him in he’s like someone who completely how to talk. Like a deaf person doing an impersonation of late era Batman

        I was saying only yesterday, that I have never lost so much respect for an actors abilities as I have with Aidan Gillen. I thought he very was good in The Wire, but can’t believe how sh1t he has become.

        Check his accent in series on of Game of Thrones against the latest series….. in that any every other recent role he’s playing a thoughtful, exaggerated,Irish pirate.

        Woeful!

          His accent was crap in The Wire too. He made House MD’s American accent sound believable. His accent in Cavalry takes the cake though. SO SO bad.

            I hear ya… it was on the back of watching Calvary that I was making my comments. Absolutely terrible.

            If he wants to continue his acting career, he should either get a voice coach, or sack his voice coach.

    To be fair thats a bit of a s**t line up from RTE, how in a country of creative and literary people can RTE still regurgitate the same old sh**e is beyond me.

      If you would care to actually watch before you judge.
      The Fall is an excellent piece of drama with Dornan and Anderson playing really great characters.

      Did you miss that fact there is a religious section in the line up? I will watch the Donal Og doc but don’t fool herself that rte didn’t just commission that to try get back all their LGBT viewership that they alienated last year.

        1. Del McG

          In fairness, one of the documentaries listed under the “Religious Programming” section is well worth viewing. One Million Dubliners, about Glasnevin Cemetery, is a great watch. Caught it at the Galway Film Fleadh recently & it’s as far from RTE’s usual preachy brown nosing of the church as it’s possible to be.

    RTÉ Autumn schedule.
    I’m surprised there’s no, Des Bishop goes to Crimea, or Des Bishop goes to Jail, or Des Bishop in Love/Hate, or Des Bishop is Lovin’ Dublin and Lovin’ Berlin next.

      Des = Bishop… in which our hero joins the seminary and climbs the ranks of the church in Ireland over the course of only 6 weeks

    RTEeeeee… over here… I know I’m only a woman but I do pay my licence fee. I do love Gillian Anderson’ s character in The Fall. More women like her please…. The Fall was the only thing in that trailer with any women in it and one of them was at the kitchen sink. Which is where I’ll go now. Sorry RTE. How dare I.
