Pat Kenny quits the Late Late...

Pat has decided he will quit the program at the end of it's current run, and rumour has it he will return with a new current affairs based show in the Autumn. It's probably general consensus that Kenny is good with the serious stuff and useless at the celebrity and light rubbish that chat shows have to filled with, so its sounds like a good move for all. Talk obviously now moves to who will take over, if they decide to continue it (which they probably will) with Gerry Ryan, Miriam O'Callaghan, Ryan Tubridy and Patrick Kielty all mentioned. The chat show format is pretty tired though, with jaded celebrities wheeled about giving shallow interviews whenever they have another book/record/boiler to sell, and with the amount of actual shows on Irish TV, more often than not, its a boring exchange between an interviewer who doesn't really care and a interviewee who has nothing to say.
Anyway, my money would be on Tubridy. If i betted on prospective show hosts. Which i probably wouldn't..
