...is without exception the worst television programme I've seen this year.

They're trying to find "Ireland's Favourite Number One". No idea why, but if you'd like to spend money for no reason you can vote for your favourite each week in the run up to a "spectacular" final in x weeks time.

From what I saw the songs are not performed by the original artists, but seemingly by whoever was cheapest/was passing. Brian Kennedy then performs himself in the usual whine that he calls singing. Tonight he had a go at "Alice" by Smokie, though I was disappointed he didn't sing the "Who the f***" bit.

The audience looks as if they may have been tricked into coming by the rumour of an appearance by Daniel O'Donnell.

Truly terrible television.

And as if you haven't had enough crap shoved down your throat by the state broadcaster for one night, stand by for Charity You're a Star!

There's an entertainingly scathing review of that Brian Kennedy programme in the Culture magazine of today's Sunday Times.
