    Ryan Tubridy, Joe Duffy, Eurovision... is the RTÉ soap opera back in business?
    May 12 2025

    As a new summer dawns, RTÉ finds itself haunted by old ghosts. Ryan Tubridy may have happily swapped Donnybrook for London, but he and his agent Noel Kelly are currently engaged in a lengthy quest for answers related to Tubridy’s departure in 2023. Meanwhile, a seven-figure write-down, staff redundancies, Joe Duffy’s shock exit, and the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest are all causing headaches of their own.

  • The rise and fall of ‘Mr Flashy’

    The rise and fall of ‘Mr Flashy’
    May 6 2025
    The rise and fall of Glen Ward – the gangster known as ‘Mr Flashy’, has played out in less than a decade. Last week Glen Ward was given a five and a half year sentence while his brother Eric was previously jailed for five years. Because of the threat to his safety, Ward has been held on a 23.5 hour lock-up, while the address of the prison also cannot be published. However, gardaí have no doubt that they have not seen the last of the 32-year-old criminal, who is due to be released from prison while still in his mid-30s. By mid-2016 Glen Ward took the reins of the crime group which became known as the ‘Gucci Gang’ because of their taste for expensive clothing and jewellery. Ward was no exception to this and was given the nickname ‘Mr Flashy’. Host; Fionnán Sheahan, Guest; Robin Schiller
