Yeah, right. Did somebody bring in the wrong USB key?

Freaky Monday just doesn't have the same ring to it. It'll probably be shown on a Friday.

Damn it, I'll have to purposely avoid it another time.

Which was it in Nolan's case? Did he act like a prostitute or make fun of people with mental health issues?

What does Sinead O'Connor actually do these days? Or since about 1991? Seriously why is this fcukwit given airtime or being interviewed?

I reckon in the first ever instance of effective Cross Border co operation,both Stormont and the Dail intervened jointly to save the Irish people,North and South,from having Hector and Nolan afflicted upon them.

Because she comes from South Dublin and RTÉ thinks it's a local station for that area.

Don't like the fat boy Nolan but was looking forward to Hector, in saying that always thought Hector was the man until he started doing that "Cranky Car" crop in the mornings...but i suppose i can forgive him for 5 mins of bad radio waves in the morning.

When is it on again?

T Fearon · October 08, 2013, 12:49:25 PM

Met Hector in one of the Corporate Boxes in Croke Park last year. Off screen he's totally different from his tv persona, quietly spoken, amiable and willing to have a chat, but none too enamoured with Derry wans in the next Box, a bit inebriated, trying to take the piss out of him, as I recall.

Was supposed to be on again tonight....still not "available". Can anyone else get it?

It was crap. Try RTE+1 if you want to see it.
Hard to see what the delay was about, nothing very controversial at all, just bollix.
