The Late Late show

[seafoid]

Last night three audience members were asked to estimate the total number of points Ireland won in the Eurovision grand final 1965-24. The highest estimate was 900 and something. The answer was 3000 and something. Maths is a national weakness.

Another poor show apart from Paul McGrath

Truly shocking, a 60 year period and we won it 7 times with 100+ scores in those years at least.

Another poor show apart from Paul McGrath

Thought the Paul McGrath segment was poor as well. The usual questions: The injury going into the Italy game, Ferguson, Big Jack. Don't think the interview was more than 7 minutes.

Footnote:
Paul McGrath is a Legend, and the above comments don't reflect on this status. Even legends can be bombarded by the same boring stereotype questions.

Living with Lucy got the closest to a proper interview recently.

Paul McGrath interview was the media equivalent of jelly and icrecream on a dessert menu

Aye, he would of told that dose anything to get her out of his house.

Paul McGrath is a legend , but  he's not a great interviewee.  He's not a natural  speaker , and I was hoping Patrick would   step in  every so often    to give him a dig out

Those two actors  interviewed was quite boring.

But that Donegal girl,  wow she was mesmerising!  I loved her  playing , and she has   a   very unique voice

Dressed like a schoolgirl and counting in Irish is one of the efforts for the Irish song in the Eurovision. It's like they are trying not to win it.

[AustinPowers]

My lovely horse  doesn't look so ridiculous  now eh?

[ONeill]

Surely there have to be better songs out there being rejected by RTE.

One of the better picks - reminds me of Poppy!

Didn't realise what a decent song the Ukrainian winner was from two years ago. Thought it was a sympathy vote but a good song.

Bambi definitely has a stage presence. Good set. Good looking woman too behind it all, she'll draw a few admirers around Europe. The song I don't know. Will struggle to make final on musical merit.

For the most part, the rest of the songs, the panel and Paddy himself were pure torture.

Edit: I read afterwards that Bambie identifies as non-binary so no offense meant with above post. Hope they go onto win in Sweden.

Doomsday Blue will do ok. From being at Euro Song last year in Liverpool, you realise how quirky a song needs to be.

It's not a song as such but what a performance, the best offer from Ireland since ..... Johnny Logan.
