Johnny Adair on TV.

[meriwether]

Did anyone else the the Donal MyIntyre docu on Adair last night?
I thought it was a parody for a while.
For anyone who didnt see it, Adair is a pin up for neo-nazi's in Germany.
It showed him visiting an imprisoned nazi who is a huge admirer. He promised the support of his little rag-tags for Johnny in the event of a upsurge of the Adair/UDA feud. He promised 5 men would go to Belfast and exact retribution, and clutched a Belfast A-Z map to show how serious the UDA have to take his threat.
It was laugh out loud stuff.

Not sure if I saw the same one, but there's an episode showing him in Troon running on the beach. It was like Baywatch, only it was raining horizontally and his son and some middle-aged dude in a mac were co stars.
Funniest part was the interview with his son, "daft dog", as he's affectinately known. The producers had to put up ************************************' subtitles when he talked.
It sounded like he was swallowing his tongue.

The nazi's dont get the celebrity treatment like loyalists do.

Excellent TV. I noticed there was no sign of the wife "mad b***h" Adair. I thought he was going to start throwing rocks at the GPO at one point. At least they have some sense in Troon in barring him from all the pubs. Although, if they did that in the Republic they would find themselves before the equality tribunal!

It was the best hours TV Ive seen for a while.
If all it takes is 5 guys to put manners on the UDA, clutching a Belfast A-Z, it makes you wonder what I could achieve if I rounded up 4 of my mates.
And we'd have google earth at our disposal.

Condsidering the hype it was dissappointing, But of course 'disposable TV' is what TV3 does best.

Mc Intyre has let himself down here. He has down some decent undercover investigative reporting in the past which stands head and shoulders above this trash commentry. He gave very little insight into what drives a nutter like Adair (some may argue thats its been done to death) but some brevity was required to balance the hamfisted production.

I thought Johnny looked great, really pumped, you would never think he was a man in his 40’s. He’s certainly still got it, ‘daft dog’ is a chip off the old block too, really defined muscle structure and you can just see he is armed, carrying and dangerous. I wonder if the two of them do a little bit of working out on one another now Gina isn’t around, the people of Troon are just too conservative that’s their problem…liked the Nazi boy as well.

That creamer who won the Lotto, Mickey Carroll (I think) looks a good addition to Ulster Loyalism.
Did anyone notice the UVF flag he had when they were taking pictures? Johnny held it momentarily. What a faux-pas!
