Mr & Mrs Robinson

When is this spotlight program being broadcast?

Supposed to be before the end of the month, but there has been no date set yet.

The suspense is killing me, it's like being a kid waiting for Christmas 

I think they should broadcast asap while there is still a huge interest in this story.

Please never become a journalist. Spotlight haven't even finished their investigation.  Why would they broadcast something when they've no proof?

From the way Peter Robinson specifically mentioned that only he had nothing to hide and from the way Eammon Mallie was talking last night, there's clearly a big story about to break? It's going to come out regardless, so we all just have to be patient.

A tongue in cheek comment, what sort of wanky reply is that? You beginning to take yourself and this thread a bit too serious. 

Now let me tell you this, if and if the rumors are correct that this programme is to air by the end of the month then it's almost certainly the investigation has concluded and possibly the final cut has been finished. This is not some micky mouse secondary school media project that can be edited and knocked out overnight. Further in a piece like this (based on the rumors flying around), BBC's legal department will certainly review the content/final edit before it is approved for broadcast.

In fairness thebigfella quite a few of Spotlights "exclusives" have been similar to a sixth year media studies exercises.

I wont I already know the story,he he inside imformation is a wonderful thing.

Not sure why you're replying to me as it wasn't you I was quoting?!

Anyway, go on. Spill some alleged beans. Are rumours and suppositions potentially libellous?

[red hander]

I heard today rumour that the fling was with another well known politician, and that peter will walk as well within the month

No idea who the mystery man is tho!

Yeah, I heard she went after a big fish but caught a sprat

Who's lanyard was Iris bouncing on?

[pintsofguinness]

i find the whole thing very calculated, i think its damage limitation...there is something bigger in the water about to come out. Just heard in work today that its common knowledge that Peter Robinson has beat Iris about this years. On numersous occasions his bodyguards have brought the wife to the Royal for attention.

Shes the scapegoat in this who sharade and like previous posters have said will cry insanity when the bigger shit hits the fan. My guess being that Pete has had sticky fingers or been involved in some dodgy dealings and hes going to shift the blame on to dear old wifey.

I actually feel sorry for her.

always been rumours about that alright.

Some interesting points there about his performance last night and the difference the day after her "suicide attempt".  Something smells fishy!

The focus of attention according to Eamon Malley this evening centres on a south Belfast cafe.


Reporters are campred outside - they believe a gentleman who works / owns the cafe was "familiar" with Iris.
