Emotional RTE presenter Ronan Collins has announced he will move to RTE Gold in February - as he said a last farewell to listeners to his lunchtime radio show after 43 years.
The star made the announcement on his final radio show on Friday to Liveline host Joe Duffy, who paid a glowing tribute to Collins.
Ronan told Joe and his listeners: “I’ve had so many people looking to get in touch with me over the last couple of weeks, I’m now starting to feel like Joe Duffy, there are so many people getting in touch, wanting to talk to me and I am absolutely flattered.
