Oh my God I couldn't stick more than 5 minutes of it!! I loved Maura on LI. She was one of the best contestants they've ever had, and her accent made her even funnier at times, but it absolutely doesn't work for TV presenting!!!Is anyone watching glow up
Ireland!? Mauras enunciation is fucking shocking
I know! For “this, that, the, they” she says “dis, dat, de, dey” is sounds fucking awful!Oh my God I couldn't stick more than 5 minutes of it!! I loved Maura on LI.

I know the accent is grating but look loads of the country sound like that. Nice to have someone on tv that’s not a complete Rte robot. Our pool of presenters need some fresh faces. Same people for 10 years on rotationI know! For “this, that, the, they” she says “dis, dat, de, dey” is sounds fucking awful!
Can't deny she's got a cracking figureI really like her NTA look but appreciate its out thereshe could pull off a bin bag IMO.
I've seen far more praise for RTE employing someone with Maura's accent, than negativity against it.I know the accent is grating but look loads of the country sound like that.

Exactly, it’s her accent. She shouldn’t have to change it as it’s her heritage and where she came from. It’s great, adds some diversity to the current presenting poolI’m from rural ireland too.. I pronounce my th’s like maura, it does make me paranoid but it’s my accent so what can you do
Exactly. It beats another D4 accent any day.Exactly, it’s her accent. She shouldn’t have to change it as it’s her heritage and where she came from. It’s great, adds some diversity to the current presenting pool
Some people have an issue with pronunciation because of their accent.I don’t know how many times I can say her accent isn’t the issue, it’s very similar to my ownthere is a difference between accent and pronunciation
Most of the press seem to disagree. She's on the best dressed lists with most of them.Her outfit looked awful at the NTAs - leave a little to the imagination. Not at all classy
Was that really her ? I wasn’t sure if it was or just a skit? The song thing she was singing about her abs and how unreal she was ? Made me think it was someone joking putting on her accentTo be honest I’ve actually never met someone who has SUCH a strong accent I actually thought it was put on for LI. Haven’t watched the show yet but yesterday they had her ‘live’ on 2fm to promote the show - which was very obviously a recording- my god she will not be a radio presenter in this life time
It wasn’t herWas that really her ? I wasn’t sure if it was or just a skit? The song thing she was singing about her abs and how unreal she was ? Made me think it was someone joking putting on her accent
