Depends what you mean by āsheā?
On now
She has the head of a ā¦
Her left ear sticks out much further than her right ear.
Twas kind of pointless-she didnāt have time to get into any detail on the subject and told us what we know already. Maybe thatās the point of the Late Late.
Never heard of her.
Curiosity got the better of me and I looked her up. An Z lister if there ever was.
She must be hanging about the canteen or somethingā¦ā¦
I did too, i still donāt know what she really does to warrant 6 appearances.
Yerrah Tubridy is only phoning it in these days. Heād have garnered 2.78m viewers if heād bothered his arse getting Gerry Hutch on. Heās the kind of guy we want to hear from, not Poddrig or indeed the ubiquitous Stephanie. All we get is a motley collection of head-nodders - itās like the Sunday Game studio panel on a Friday night - toothless company-men and women.

Sheās interesting to listen to and doesnāt pull her punches, sheās smart and has a dry and quick humour, a good guest for a chat show Iād say, though Iāve only ever heard her on radio.
You donāt like her? Takes all sorts I suppose
Did you watch the segment?
No, Iāve never seen her on TV
I thought we were complaining that sheās on too much,
I heard some of the Christy Dignam interview on playback this morning, that was lovely
Oh right.
Her original reason for being on the LLS was that she lost a huge amount of weight iirc. This has since evolved to her fertility issues. Sheās an Irish Independent journalist as far as I know.
ā¦ and sheās from Cork
