Patrick Kielty was joined by veteran broadcaster Bryan Dobson on the Late Late Show last night where the well known RTÉ man told of his heartbreak at the death of fellow journalist Charlie Bird.
The celebratory atmosphere turned poignant, however, when Bryan was asked about his late friend, Charlie Bird, who died last March after a long and brave battle with Motor Neurone Disease . He said the interviewee told him that there had been a stigma associated with the technology that allowed MND sufferers to communicate using a computer that had cloned their own voice, but that Charlie had made it acceptable through his use of the software.
On a lighter note, Bryan’s daughters, Sophie, 34, and Hannah, 31, told Patrick Kielty about how their dad used to use his famous interviewing skills at home when they were younger.“So, growing up we would come home from school and he wouldn’t just say ‘How was your day?’ and move on like many other parents would do.
Bryan retired today after 37 years with RTÉ, having anchored Six One for 21 years before moving to Morning Ireland in 2017.
