Those watching the Tommy Tiernan show on RTE One admitted that they were distressed after the comedian's psychopath test.
The Navan man was joined by psychologist Kevin Dutton and for a change, Tommy was being asked the questions.
Mr Dutton presented the Derry Girls actor with a series of questions to see whether he is classified as a psychopath or not.

Luckily, Tommy scored 17, making him below average on the psychopath scale. But if he scored one more point, he would’ve been average.
But one question in particular had viewers talking on Twitter.
Tiernan was asked to agree or disagree with the following: “Seeing an animal injured or in pain doesn’t bother me in the slightest.”
Tiernan took his time answering, with one fan saying: “Why was Tommy so slow to answer the animal question.. it’s bothering me.....hmmm…”
Another said: “Tommy you took too long with the animal question!!! I’d answer as quickly as he’d finished!”
A third posted: “I was amazed at his response. Even if you didn't particularly care for animals you still wouldn't like to see them in pain. Why did it take him so long to think of that answer.”
Someone else asked: “Why did Tommy have to think about how he'd feel about an animal in distress?”
Fans enjoyed seeing Tommy sweat with one tweeting: “Tommy Tiernan doing a psychopath test is my kind of wild Saturday night.”
Another viewer said: “Tommy is not enjoying this”.
Someone else said: “This is such good watching, Tommy is slightly uncomfortable”.
