i hear it's Michael O'Leary vs Dermot Mannion at some stage
Surely there will be someone from FF on, telling Prime Time that they are a disgrace for commissioning such a programme, that everything is ok, and that anyone who is talking down the economy should go away and commit suicide...
Surely...
The doomsday merchants caused all this..... with all their doom and gloom talk when things were good. They put a jinx on everything.Originally Posted by wysiwyg
Well, one Bertie Ahern told them what to go do and that they 'knew nothin about nothin' whilst at the same time recommending some shares that have since tanked. He must be feeling very chuffed with his legacy to Ireland right now, huh?The doomsday merchants caused all this..... with all their doom and gloom talk when things were good.

I'm gonna turn down the lights for this one and watch it cowering in the corner. The mood music on these Prime Time episodes demands it, otherwise the effect is just wasted...
Indeed and make sure your mum is in the room to turn up the lights when it gets really scary!
Michael O'Leary and Dermot Mannion pulled out of the show this afternoon.
The RTE statement says "[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=2][COLOR=black][COLOR=black][FONT=Arial][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [COLOR=black]RTÉ was informed this afternoon that the Irish Takeover Panel has given a direction under the Irish Takeover Panel Act 1997 to both Aer Lingus and Ryanair not to participate in the programme. In a letter to RTÉ, the Irish Takeover Panel said that: “Participation by representatives of either Aer Lingus or Ryanair in the Prime Time programme would therefore result in a breach of the Panel’s statutory direction to the parties”.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=black]"Mr Mannion and Mr O’Leary have informed Prime Time that they are unable to participate in tonight’s programme for this reason. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=black]However, Prime Time will still broadcast a report on the proposed takeover bid which will be followed by a panel discussion in studio."[/COLOR]
I bet there are some journalists tearing their hair out in the RTE building at the moment...

I presume the AL/Ryanair thing is this pm.
I was referring to the Prime Time Frontline programme tomorrow.
