Claire Byrne Live to end on Monday after seven years

  1. It’s an atrocious show, BBC question Time is the kind of show we should have but RTÉ literally don’t know their elbow from their bollocks

  2. She’s like a female Alan Partridge on that show, the use of props to explain everything is all over the place too!

  3. Without the announcement of a replacement show this is a big blow for current affairs.

    We need more opportunities to question our politicians and see their answers, not less.

  4. I lost a good bit of respect for her when she aggressively defended the DUP when Joe Brolly called them “bigots”. I think she might have even prevented Brolly from continuing altogether on that occasion.

  5. My favourite was always the Claire Byrne poll- whatever the question was, 14% would always answer “Don’t know” without fail

  6. Current Affairs presenters come and go but no one could ever cut the jib quite like how Vincent Browne did it! I miss that man so much.

  7. I know everyone here is chuffed about this and I wasn’t a fan of her too much but I hope there is a replacement because we do actually need to have current affairs shows on our national broadcaster. Need to be able to hold our politicians accountable in one way or another
