Brendan O’Carroll has shared his surprise at a broadcaster’s decision to abandon it’s live Christmas Eve show.
The Mrs Brown’s Boy star usually co-hosts the live broadcast from Dublin’s Grafton Street with Liveline host Joe Duffy.
They interview shoppers and allow member of the public to give shout outs to friends and family listening from around the world.
However, Kieran Cuddihy took over the microphone for Joe earlier this year and hung it up.
RTE has since stated that it will remain operational from the capital this year but will do so in the future.
It’s undoubtedly not a choice I would make, Brendan told The Irish Sun. I’m really surprised RTE won’t be hosting the show this year on Grafton Street.
“Kieran Cuddihy would have been the person who would have given the final hand over from Joe Duffy to him, and I’m confident that he would have done so.”
“I’m bemused RTE aren’t doing it, and I’m also depressed for the viewers who can’t tune in just to hear a little bit of home.”
“You’d have people listening in most years from Australia, New Zealand, even as far away as Argentina. That’s not happening this year.”
RTE have also decided not to broadcast Shedites, a new comedy drama from Brendan’s BOC Productions and BBC Studios, which will be airing as part of a double bill with Mrs Brown’s Boys on BBC One this New Year’s Day.
**For the latest showbiz, TV, movie and streaming news, go to the new **Everything Gossip** website**
His contract expires in 2026, and Brendan has spent the last 15 years entertaining audiences as Agnes Brown on the biggest TV show of the year.
On Christmas Eve at 9:30 p.m. and at 10:30 p.m. on BBC One, the Mrs. Brown’s Boys Christmas special will air on RTE1.
The comedian said the comedian’s bottom line is that fans adore the old-fashioned slapstick wisecracks and jokes, despite the fact that some critics dislike them.
He hasn’t actually seen this year’s production, and he and the rest of the cast, like always, do so on Christmas Eve.

Chris Rea, the rock star who sadly died after many years of poor health on Monday, had a defiant response to the heartbreaking news aged 33 that he had pancreatic cancer.
The Driving Home for Christmas singer said he ‘wasn’t afraid of dying’ as he faced various serious health battles that plagued him for the best part of his successful singing career.
Rea, whose festive classic has consistently topped the UK singles chart every year since 2007, passed away on Monday at the age of 74 after a brief illness.

And the star shared a now haunting last social media post just hours before his death, featuring a car on a snow-filled motorway, with a road sign which read: ‘Driving home for Christmas with a thousand memories’.
Posted on Sunday, the Middlesborough native – whose sad death was announced by his wife Joan, who was his childhood sweetheart, added the caption, ‘Top to toe in tailbacks If it’s a white Christmas, let’s hope the journey’s a smooth one.’
following his 33-year diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Although the singer suffered from diabetes and kidney issues, he eventually recovered fully, having removed a portion of his pancreas, his gall bladder, and a portion of his liver.
In 2016, he had a stroke – but would go onto release further music, albums Road Songs For Lovers in 2017 and One Fine Day in 2019. But his frailty was clear to see after he seemed to collapse onstage during a 2017 gig in Oxford and was rushed to hospital.
But the star previously confessed that rather than let his various health issues drag him down, he used them to dig deep into his first musical love – the blues.
He acknowledged in an interview that “the end definitely seemed to come, but what made me through was the idea of leaving a record on which my two teenage daughters could sing: “That’s what Papa did — not the pop stuff, but the blues music.” He was concerned about that. ‘
However, he once said, and the subsequent operations he’d had to go through since 1994, were a “living nightmare.”
In ten years, he said, “I’ve had nine significant operations.” The internal tissues of the body are frequently associated with retroperitoneal fibrosis, which is a form of internal fibrosis.
No one was aware of its existence until 20 years ago, which is completely unpredictable. I then have a stroke, which affects the colon, pancreas, gall bladder, liver, and other parts of the body.
A statement released on Monday from his heartbroken wife Julia and the couple’s daughters, Josie and Julia, read: ‘It is with immense sadness that we announce the death of our beloved Chris. He passed away peacefully in hospital earlier today following a short illness, surrounded by his family.’
In an interview on Good Morning Britain, Gene Simmons claimed that Ed Balls had “flirted” him, which viewers at home were quick to refer to as an “awkward” segment of the ITV show.

Gene Simmons thought Ed Balls was “flirting” with him on Tuesday’s episode of Good Morning Britain. The KISS legend, 76, appeared on the ITV morning show via video link from Los Angeles to discuss his legendary career, in which he has become known for his extravagant clothes and makeup.
The US rocker spoke about a time when he and his bandmates were valued only for their appearances before proving that they could still fill out stadiums without the whole aesthetic, even though they eventually went back to their roots.
When host Ed pointed out that Gene looked “better and more glamorous” without all his makeup, Gene joked: “I don’t know how to tell you this, I don’t wanna break your heart but I’m heterosexual,.” Ed joked: “That is the biggest disappointment of my Christmas, I am disappointed!”

After revealing his love for the UK and its culture, Gene asked Ed to be considerate of the viewers. You sounded flirtatious, he continued, “I don’t want your viewers to be spilling their coffee on you because this is morning television.” We have become Anglophiles ever since we first visited your stunning island, and I want to tell you something.
“The home of the Beatles, when we first stepped off the jet in 1974 or 1975, I can’t tell you the emotions we felt. We grew up with A Hard Day’s Night, all that stuff and it changed our lives.
“It literally changed our lives so I’ve always been a massive, massive fan of England. It’s this magical island that’s almost like Harry Potter, or Lord of the Rings. This magical island that gave the world the biggest bands. And don’t get rid of the monarch, keep the King, it’s cool!” As he wrapped up the interview, Ed vowed to continue to be a “groupie” who would “throw things on the stage” and made him promise to do a UK tour with his band next year.
Charlotte Hawkins, Ed’s co-host, was spotted giggling throughout the entire segment. Before Ed responded, “I didn’t say what I was going to throw,” she said, “I think you put him off by saying you were gonna throw things at him.” I never said “my underwear”!
The “awkward” elements of the interview were definitely picked up by viewers at home. On X, someone said, “Typically, you blur your face rather than your background.” Another person said, “This interviews awkward, and Gene has done it the other way around.”
A third wrote: “#gmb omg that silence was unbearable,” and a fourth wrote: “Great quote for the day from Gene Simmons…. ‘keep busy and try to stay out of trouble.'”
Earlier this year, Gene caused outraged when he offered one fan per show the opportunity to live the rockstar life with him, including helping him set up for his gig and hanging out with his crew backstage for the sum of almost £10,000. Despite the fun bits of the day being levelled out with heavy work, Gene, 75, has the experience up for grabs for $12,495 (around £9,650), with payment plans available.
Gene seemed to acknowledge the work involved, describing the “ultimate Gene Simmons experience” as being his “Personal Assistant &, Band Roadie For The Day” (Personal Assistant &, Band Roadie For The Day)! “!
Fans on X, which was formerly Twitter, were astonished by the cost of Gene and his band’s “ultimate” experience. One eagle-eyed critic noted that “tickets to the show are not included because they are sold through the individual venues,” along with a number of laughing emojis.
“Gene Simmons is currently just as bad as Donald Trump,” Simmons said. Another person said, “Wait… pay you… to work FOR you, Gene… and a hell of a lot more than £10k,” while a second agreed. Like, at no point are the maths math.
“Surely, the person doing the job is the one who deserves to be paid,” the question remains. What a plonker, cried a third person, “Disgusting, he doesn’t need that money,” one complained. Give it to a genuine fan for nothing and cheer them up.
“Shouldn’t be paying someone to serve as his roadie and day’s PA?” Not that he lacks “a bob or two,” is that true? The joker added that “I need you to send me $12k for you to be my roadie” is similar to Instagram scam DM material.
People were especially infuriated by Gene’s money-making scheme considering his jaw-dropping net worth, which is estimated to be around $400 million as of this year, according to Finance Monthly.
Fans praised Chris Rea for his enduring illness by referring to Bob Mortimer’s well-known Would I Lie To You story. The singer, who performed in the film Driving Home for Christmas, passed away on December 22.

Numerous people have contacted online tributes to Bob Mortimer’s legendary yarn from BBC1’s “Will I Lie To You,” which was actually false but had viewers in stitches.
The comedian’s bizarre and fabricated tale of Chris putting an egg in Bob’s bath after recording Boro’s 1997 FA Cup Final anthem has gained widespread attention as a result of the comedian’s viral success.
When Chris gave the pair a directive to take a bath and drop an egg into it for him, Mortimer told a highly plausible tale about the encounter.
When questioned about the origins of this peculiar behavior, Bob responded, “I’ve never found out. I have never felt more alive since I woke up the following day. “
After convincing David Mitchell’s team that this amusing anecdote actually happened, it became clear that Mortimer had completely fabricated the entire tale.
In honor of the legendary musician, numerous admirers are now declaring they will be “cracking an egg” into their baths this evening.
Chris Rea, RIP, one fan wrote. Taking a bath tonight with an egg in it. “
Another person said, “Popping an egg in the bath tonight in Chris Rea’s memory.” “

The comedian made the announcement of nine new Better Late Than Never tour dates with Paddy McGuinness about BBC staff asking him to post clips online frequently.

Comedian Peter Kay has put his foot down with BBC chiefs after a stint on Radio 2, declaring “that’s enough now”. The 52-year-old funnyman recently announced an additional nine dates to his record-smashing Better Late Than Never tour, which is now set to run until the end of August next year.
On August 8th, the Bolton-born comic will wrap up his tour at Manchester’s AO Arena. The tour will raise money for 12 different cancer charities, with Peter stating that “everyone knows someone who has been affected” by the illness.
He stated on The One Show, “You don’t even have to like me to come; it’s about supporting these charities.”
Peter dropped by BBC Radio 2 for a candid discussion with host Scott Mills shortly after revealing the length of his tour. Paddy McGuinness, a fellow Phoenix Nights and Max and Paddy’s Road to Nowhere star, was introduced by Peter, who admitted he had never met him before the show.
However, Peter acknowledged that he was provoked by one of the BBC’s chief executives. He said to Paddy, “I did Scott Mills a few weeks ago, and they kept in touch going. Can we put this bit on social media?” Can that be shared on social media? I said, “No, that’s enough, thanks, leave it.” Everything is… I am unable to say a word.
Peter then inquired as to whether Paddy’s Radio 2 program was recorded for use on social media. Papadi said, “Sometimes, because we’re in Salford, they’ll be alright with that,” adding, “Send them an old camera up there, and they’ll be alright.” So, all we need is a camera in the corner at times.
“But at the minute, because you’re on, and you’re one of the most successful comedians ever, they’ve actually brought up a camera phone. Someone’s filming me, as we speak, with an iPhone. It’s not even got a mic plugged in, it’s just one of the lads out of the office has come in and stuck it on a stand in the corner of the room.”
Whilst Peter is pressing ahead with his stand-up return next year, he’s recently disclosed that his beloved sitcom Phoenix Nights won’t be making its way onto streaming services. He revealed that Netflix had reached out to him about acquiring the broadcasting rights, but confessed he declined their offer due to their insistence on adding a trigger warning to the series.
The comedian claimed that the current version of the show, which follows his alter ego Brian Potter’s attempts to establish The Phoenix Club as Greater Manchester’s premier working men’s club, is not very politically correct. Peter stated in a statement on Capital Breakfast last month, “They reached out to me last year because they wanted to make Phoenix Nights available on Netflix.”
They called me up and said, “Can we license some of your shows to put on Netflix?” Anyway, I received a lot of paperwork from them. In essence, it’s currently not very politically correct. Do you know what I mean when I say that this was made in a certain period of time?
Capital presenter Sian Welby chipped in: “When things were different!” Before Peter added: “I just said, ‘I’m not keen on that, I don’t really want a warning before it.’ So, I just said, ‘No, I’ll leave it.’ Anyway, they sent me an air fryer. I think that was trying to sweeten me.”
The comedian, who co-wrote Peter Kay’s Car Share and is currently on a Phoenix Nights movie, has revealed that he is returning to scriptwriting. He continued, “It’s written and finished.” However, I’m awaiting the completion of the de-aging process. I don’t want to use really bad makeup to make people look young because the plot contains a lot of flashbacks to the past.
He went on to joke: “Seriously, when the tour is finished, I’ve been thinking about it. I’ve been looking at the capabilities of de-aging technology.”
