Guests on "Ryan Confidential" included Ben Dunne who spoke of feeling like a "bloody eejit" for provoking the set up of the Tribunals, Colin Farrell whose use of "salty language" prompted a large number of complaints despite an on-screen warning about the show's content and Brian O'Driscoll who appeared replete with "interesting haircut" before an important Celtic League match for Leinster. "The Irish Times" critic, Shane Hegarty, said of an early interview with multimillionaire step dancer Michael Flatley: ``Gerry Ryan returned to the television screens again this week. He has a habit of doing that, like a fly you thought you'd chased from the room.`` Ryan alluded to the upset this remark caused him in a special "Ryan Tubridy Confidential", aired on 16 October 2008 to coincide with the release of the presenter's autobiography, in which the tables were turned on the regular interviewer as he was asked questions by his protégé Ryan Tubridy. Tubridy was selected after RTÉ expressed their dissatisfaction at Ryan's original plan - to interview himself.
