Chesney Hawkes fans are in for a big treat as the 90’s heart-throb and singer will join Ray live in studio. He will reveal how life is 25 years on from the release of his hit song “The One and Only“….Rory Cowan will drop by to talk about life with Brendan O’Carroll and family- and his new role as one of the voices of Gogglebox Ireland.
Ray will also be joined on the couch by transgender sisters Chloe and Jamie O’Herlihy from Cork. They will discuss the reality of being transgender in Ireland and will chat to Ray about growing up together, as well as their hopes and dreams for the future.
Best-selling author of the Ross O’Carroll Kelly series, Paul Howard, will fill Ray in on his latest exploits, including plans for a TV series starring his famous comic creation….
*Burns imaginary telly licence*
The Ray D’Arcy Show tomorrow night on RTÉ One at 9:55pm.

Rory Cowan again
…no doubt he’ll use the opportunity to shill for his zionist mates..
no no no – we don’t need Ross O’Carroll Kelly on the TV; two dimensional caricatures (which can be great fun if two dimensional caricatures are your thing) don’t always work when brought to life.
Jeeves and Wooster worked because they’d
a) Fry
b) Laurie
c) a reverence for the the vibe/spirit/look/aesthetic of the time
I can’t see an Irish production team getting that right; we’ll get Mrs Brown for Southsiders.
Yip, you end up with “Damo & Ivor”
That’s my hair in 1988.
That’s my hair now.
Not joking. Just a little less blonde.
This is open mockery at this stage.
Next week Ray’s special guest will be a plastic bag.
The pub I was in last evening played his One and Only song three times in about 2.5 hours.
THREE TIMES.
The poor staff.
Their One And Only single was it?
I’ll get me coat !
Pub I was in was even worse. They must have played Rihanna a dozen times. Pure torture.
I’m almost afraid to imagine how badly Ray will mishandle the O’Herlihy sisters’ interview
It will be Partridgesque.
For that reason alone I think I will have a look. Steve Coogan gets most of his material from observing RTÉ personalities past and present.
