McElvaney’s little act made me howl laughing

Last Tuesday night I watched an episode of “Irish Pictorial Weekly” which I had recorded from the previous Sunday night.

The show is described in listings as a satirical sketch show. To me that means I might have got some laughs out of it. However sadly this was not the case.

The previous night I watched an RTE Investigates programme which I had understood to be a factual current affairs programme. However I have never laughed so much in my life, especially when Councillor Hugh Mc Elvaney did his peculiar movements saying he wanted sterling and lots of it.
