Fáilte Towers 1 Discussion Topic
 
A place for people to discuss Irish reality show, Fáilte Towers, which launched last week on RTE. It has 12 celebrities living and working in a hotel - and so far, I'm enjoying it.

The celebs are:
The celebrities taking part are:
Brian Dowling - TV Presenter / Big Brother 2 UK winner
Clare Tully - Model / First Irish Page 3 girl - Eliminated 2nd
John Reardon - Radio DJ
Luke Thomas - Singer - Eliminated 1st
Michelle Heaton - Singer / TV personality
Liz O'Kane - TV Presenter - Eliminated 3rd
Don Baker - Singer Songwriter
Donne & Joe - Brother and sister singing act
Evelyn Cusack - TV Presenter
Jennifer Maguire - 'The Apprentice UK' contestant
Patricia McKenna - Politician
Sean Ó Domhnaill - Former All-Ireland medal winner

It's a good bunch, with some well known Irish celebrities. But, like all Irish reality show it seems to have been hit by the "Cabin Fever Curse" as it's been reported that all the celebs have threatened to walk off the show, for some reason.

Anyway, its all for charity and there are eliminations every two nights when one celeb is asked to "check out".

You can watch the show online for free at http://www.rte.ie/tv/failtetowers/video.html

Sounds like my kinda programme, but it won't let me watch because I don't live in Ireland :sad:

Havn't the producers admitted to fixing alot of the situations and events on this programme?

xDramatick 08-08-2008 05:26 PM

Billy 08-08-2008 05:34 PM

Well they had the nudiest guests the other day, and they were invited to the hotel and didnt book it like other guests. But it doesn't matter because it was very funny :laugh:

I really like Jennifer and I feel sorry for her. She is one of the main people on the show and makes good TV. Jen, Brian, Michelle and Donna/Joe are my faves.

Tom 08-08-2008 08:08 PM

Oh I love Jennifer Maguire :bigsmile:

Her to win, and hopefully someone will youtube it :banana:

Arneldo 09-08-2008 11:07 PM

Patricia was eliminated tonight.

Donna & Joe and Michelle were also in bottom 3.

Tonights show was good. The wedding was great, even if it was fake.

MrGaryy 10-08-2008 04:28 AM

Yeah I watch it my parents got the Irish channels tuned into our set. I love Brian, Michelle, Jennifer and Donna/Joe. Get that cock Don out then that Evelyn one.

Arneldo 10-08-2008 02:49 PM

"The Don" is great, hilerious and I really grew to like Evelyn last night. The two that really need to go are John & Sean - dullards.

Arneldo 10-08-2008 10:26 PM

Jennifer, Don & Evelyn in the bottom 3 tonight.

Jennifer now been in the bottom 3 four out of five times, which I don't get because she is amazing.

Don's plea to stay was cringe worthy, although he made good points - he did it he wrong way.

Judge Derry saved Jennifer from the bottom 2 vote.

With 2 votes to 1, Evelyn was sent home.

Ahhh, I've been in ireland for two weeks (visiting my Dad) and I watched a few bits with my dads girlfriend. To be honest it wasn't great but did entertain me. Them presenters were a tad odd lol.

Now i'm home I won't be able to watch it :sad: :laugh:

You can watch online, but says in Ireland only - you might be able to find away around that.

Yes, the presents are not great. Well Baz is ****, I cannot stand him. The better looking one is alright.

KKBL 10-08-2008 11:01 PM

Aidan is even worse.he actualy used to present on Nickelodian.anyway im soo glad Jennifer stayed!

Arneldo 12-08-2008 11:04 PM

Donna & Joe were eliminated tonight :(

Billy 12-08-2008 11:05 PM

Who was b3?

KKBL 12-08-2008 11:16 PM

im glad Jennifer wasnt in the bottom 3 and Michelle wasnt eliminated.Joe made me cringe so much when he was talking to the Japanese people but i would of preferd if Brian was eliminated.im soo tierd of his "personality".

Arneldo 12-08-2008 11:17 PM

NO! Brian's great. Bookies fave to win asweel...yay =) He is the most famous person left. I like Michelle, but Brian and D+J are my top 2.

MrGaryy 12-08-2008 11:21 PM

Memo to Baz - You do not posess any zaney or quirkey qualities, we can hear you and learn how to read an autocue rather that act it out whilst screaming the words!

I'll miss D&J they were so cringey but funny! Michelle is the most famous person there followed by Brian who I usually love but is starting to grate on me a bit!

KKBL 12-08-2008 11:21 PM

Jennifers my favourite:)
the argument they showed at the end from tomorrows show looks great.

No way Michelle is in all the magazines especially in the last month due to her affair, she has her Liberty X fans, You're A Star viewers and is well known on the London party scene. Brian is really only known to BB fans and a handful of people who watched him on HK.

But yes he is getting a tad irritating like whne he was safe a couple of nights ago and he ran in and smacked his ass and just made a show of himself really!

Arneldo 12-08-2008 11:27 PM

One trick pony with what!? He is a funny guy and very witty. He is completely genuine and hasn't changed since the days he was on BB. IMO, of course.

Brian is FAR more famous then Michelle. Millions saw him on BB, he had his own TV show, he presented SMTV, he hosted celebrity shows on Living. He is still very popular and is definitely more famous and more popular then Michelle.
