    Sarah Carey shoul’n be on, she was on the last time she is not credible to be a journalist never mind on tv along with ganley who will have his own self serving agenda.There should be people without ties or vested interests..

    I can’t get my head around these decisions by TV3. Cant see myself watching def not Carey disgrace..

    The last few places should be filled by a real Maverick, somebody with no agenda, and no fear politically or otherwise. People like that are hard to find, but it would speak volumes about the ethos of the program and its makers if they went the extra mile and found a candidate of that quality.

    Great to see David Norris getting a turn but Sarah Carey? And all she’s been proven to be up to in the last 6 months. Sickening.

    I was worried that Sarah Carey was going to be on air all summer, what a scary thought…

      Sarah Carey be doing a round table on ethics in Irish politics, guest may include Micheal Lowry, Micheal Martin, Bertie Ahern and Ray Burke.

      Mary o’Rourke will be interviewing Bertie, where they both will do their damndest to turn Brian Lenihan in to a saint, lay all blame at his feet and plug their own biographies with fond anecdotes of his good self, which are going to be included in the latest editions.

      Should be a Zinger.

      Seriously though, o’Rourke, Carey, they should have gotten more credible interviewers. The rest are reasonable.
