Who Wants To Be On RTE?

Sir, - The imagination and originality of RTE sometimes overwhelm me

Sir, - The imagination and originality of RTE sometimes overwhelm me. We watch rip-off after rip-off of British TV programmes and now, in the biggest blockbuster of them all, we have Gay Byrne presenting Who Wants to be a Millionaire? Or should it be known as Who Wants to Come out of Retirement?

I must say I am delighted he's back, though I really couldn't cope with seeing a new face. And relieved too - I mean God forbid the job might have fallen into the hands of some young, enthusiastic, ambitious presenter looking for a break. And anyway, sure isn't Gay just like everyone's big brother? Now that gives me an idea . . . - Yours, etc.,
