The Sunday show is dreadful. Time to re-vamp the time slot with a new show and a new presenter and production team. I didn’t think it could get any worse but…
The Brenda Fricker interview was excellent and redeeming for the failing show.
This is a great show. Always informative, and frequently inspirational! I look forward to it. Thanks Brendan.
