Oliver Callan has said that filling in as host of Ryan Tubridy''s RTE radio show this morning is the "last place" he expected to be - and that people enjoy a "good old RTE scandal".
Ryan usually presents The Ryan Tubridy Show on RTE Radio 1 between 9 and 10am. However, following the recent controversy that he was paid hundreds of thousands of euro in undeclared pay, he will not be on the show.
Greeting listeners on the Ryan Tubridy show this morning, Callan said that it was a "weird Friday". He said: "This is the last place I expected to be 24 hours ago, but here we are. The reasons are fairly obvious, especially as I get to the review of the papers, because the usual presenter of the show is the subject of every single front page.
