The Late Late show

[burdizzo]

Nervy enough start.

McAleese and McClean on a different level to the rest of the guests.

The northern guests better than the southern guests is essentially what you're saying

Not necessaeily. A level beneath, maybe? Didn't see McClean, but McAleese was clearly full of poo.

They were in last night's show, but that's not essentially what I'm saying, no.

What was you opinion of the guests?

[RedHand88]

Tubridy would have questioned his poppy stance.

[Fear ón Srath Bán]

How come Mary McAleese says she's a Co Down woman. I thought she was from North Belfast which is Co Antrim

Though she was from Ardoyne?

Originally, yes, but moved to south Down early on.

The reaction of the audience was class.

[From the Bunker]

Tubridy would have questioned his poppy stance.

Tubridys mother had The Wolfe tones play at a recent family do.

No expenses spared.

Wasn't recent, was over 40 years ago!  It was an 80th Birthday party for Ryan Tubridy's Grandfather, Todd Andrews .... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todd_Andrews

Kielty was nervy enough in parts of the show but that was to be expected.
Was good to hear someone that actually knew what he was talking about when interviewing or discussing sport.

Did Hector even speak?
Tiernan & Brollys wife (forget her name) were grand for a bit of craic
McAleese was poor/full of it
Two Johnnies were better off staying in the green room
McLean was decent but doesnt seem comfortable in front of the camera

Overall a huge step up in terms of presenting/interacting with guests than the previous presenter

[Hereiam]

It is the caliber of guests and topics covered which will make or break PK. the second he has Vogue Williams on then that's the end for me.

McLean's story and the input from his wife were very interesting as well as important  Not everyone has  media training.
It's not by chance that the new presenter  is  from the Occupied Territories.

I remember one conversation in the early 90s with a colleague who told me that the North was a different country. A sizeable number of people would still believe that in the South. If there is going to be a United Ireland we need as much exposure to each other as possible.
