RTÉ weather woman just walks off the set and we are bursting

Olivia Hayes

This is pretty hilarious.

Look, it was likely an innocent mistake. And we all make mistakes… but this one is pretty funny.

As pointed out by FM104’s Nobby on Twitter, on today’s weather forecast just after the 6.01 news, the weather woman just walked off the set while the cameras were still rolling.

He wrote: “This one just literally downs tools and walks off the job mid forecast!”

In the video, Nobby is heard asking, “Where you going? The weather’s not over! Don’t take your microphone off… Hello?”

And we have to say, it puts an even funnier spin on the whole thing. Did anybody else notice it?

On a more serious note however, RTÉ received 1,277 complaints about the Claire Byrne Live referendum special.

RTÉ has said that 92 percent of complaints referred to claims of unfairness towards the ‘Yes’ side of the debate.

The broadcaster has defended the programme, saying that both the ‘Yes’ and the ‘No’ campaigns were afforded equal time to speak.

They also said that Claire Byrne “… consistently requested that speakers and audience show respect for each others point of view.”
