On The Ray D’Arcy Show...
Sinéad Harrington writes;
On the week that he celebrated his 60th birthday, Shane McGowan and his partner Victoria Mary Clarke join Ray to talk about Monday night’s celebrations at the National Concert Hall.
The ‘Kerry babies’ story shocked the nation in 1984 and is now dominating the headlines again. Mary O’Rourke will join Ray on the couch to discuss how the country rose up after her impassioned speech on the treatment of Joanne Hayes at the Kerry Babies Tribunal.
Actor Marcus Lamb caused a stir as Dr. Oakley in Fair City and he joins Ray with his Mum, Geraldine Plunkett, to talk about following in her footsteps, family ties and memories of the much loved series Glenroe.
David Norris will chat to Ray to talk about winning Celebrity Home of The Year, his 17 portraits and why he has written and recorded his own eulogy!As well as all that Ray will be joined by the Liverpool fan from Cork, Richie Sheehy, who caught the attention of Noel Gallagher, Jamie Carragher and Robbie Fowler when he created one of the greatest Liverpool songs of all time.
The Ray D’Arcy Show at 9:45pm on RTÉ One.

You look at McGowan and you just say………How?
you look at things as they are and say how, I dream of a real public service broadcaster we never had and say, why not?
I find the same is true of Ray D’arcy…. : (
His transformation is even more amazing that McGowan’s. From floppy haired teenage girl crush to shrunken baldie.
It awaits ye all
just as well there are many, many other channels to choose from…….
“one of the greatest Liverpool songs of all time”
Pfft, ‘Neighbourhood’ by Space is the greatest, as any fule kno…
has nothing on Z-Cars
Don’t be soft la’, it’s Shack “comedy” all day, every day.
AVENGING ANGELS, you very silly man.
Johnny Keenan might be in the audience so
Opportunist media whore Mary O’Rourke claiming credit for the outcry against the way Joanne Hayes was treated.
Mary O’Rourke – the mammy of the dail – now being cast as social crusader. Fiction category.

Even at this hour of her life
Wha’
Must be over 80 anyway
There she is
Still crying for attention
The worst
Undoubtedly
The worst
Minister for Transport
I’d say more but I’d be accused of bullying
Cadaverous motherfupper
Johnny Depp is looking pretty sleazy these days, or perhaps I’m just projecting.
Well if nothing else he looks very pale.
I have thought that he looks like a man with some kind of addiction issues for a while
he hasn’t been blackballed yet. I wonder why?

I’m pretty sure we could all have Homes of the Year if we were all as handsomely recompensed as Norris is for his commute to work. It was mentioned here earlier this week that he’s claimed over €50,000 for a 13 minute walk to work in Kildare street. Ok, ok, it might be a 20 minute walk on a busy day.
His house is charming all the same
tasteful, cosy, he has style
My apologies Janet, but I did reply to you yesterday evening after 7 pm but it seems to have been deleted for whatever reason, perhaps it wasn’t deemed funny enough?
Only Bodger can answer that, will you Bodger, pretty please?
At least can you inform me why my comment wasn’t posted? Thank you.

Well who da fupp did you think would be writing it?
The RTE Guide for starters?
Is Shane in a wheelchair? Last time I saw him he was in one too but I thought it was a temporary thing. Wouldn’t want to be married to him but love him all the same!
And sure what else would Mary be doing. If it weren’t for the media gigs, she’d be hanging around the house taking one bath after another.
Writing for the Sunday Independent or doing interviews with Miriam O’Callaghan?
Media gigs, both. Would she not like to take up yoga or go and visit Conor in Russia.
