I wish Patrick Kielty well. He is stepping into a massive role. It is more than presenting a show. There is a certain leadership quality to this. It is the face of RTÉ. How early on was he made aware not only that he will be in the spotlight on Friday nights but that there is a big banana skin there as well? How early was he told of that?
