Ryan Tubridy on "The Ray D'Arcy Show": "I thought he was a bit, em, British for my liking. I won't be buying the books [Ramsay was promoting]. In fact, I didn't take the free one". Rhys Ifans and Howard Marks appeared on "The Late Late Show" on 1 October 2010 to discuss "Mr. Nice", the British independent film in which Ifans portrayed Marks. During the interview Ifans was playful with Tubridy, at one point referring to him as a "dainty little bugger" in reference to his cross-legged manner. The incident followed on from Ifans's playful request to buy Tubridy a drink. Tubridy

K. Rowling. The highlight moment of the show happened when young Alex Meehan on a pedal powered tractor came out before spontaneously speaking Irish to Ryan Tubridy. When Tubridy responded by asking him "any craic" Alex answered "Níl" before pedalling off the stage. The 2013 edition took place on 29 November.
