Homenews

People weren't happy with last Friday's show.

The Late Late Show Valentine's special is one of the wildest live shows on television. Ryan Tubridy, or "The Nation's Wingman" as he was known on the night, tries his best to control a wild audience who are baying for sexual innuendo and free stuff. This year's special aired last Friday night and it included a blind date segment, a sex advice panel, Crystal Swing, free sex aids, Deano and more. It was loose. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mMmbulaZXo

RTÉ has released a statement confirming that a lot of people around the country found the show less than entertaining. The state broadcaster received 10 formal complaints while the show received 176 calls and 120 emails from people "offering negative feedback about the programme." That's over 300 complaints which is considered much higher than usual. They say they'll respond to all the complaints within 20 days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rbb4MCShRc
