  • Ryan Tubridy is a former Irish male-stripper-turned-presenter for RTÉ and general (t)wit of the genus Montrosus, usually found when any Irish TV, radio or housewife is turned on. Affectionately known as the "Streak of Misery" (or "The Twig", a name coined by former President of Ireland Dustin the Turkey), Ryan is an accomplished (s)talker, winker and nudger and has even won the coveted Rose of Tralee trophy on a number of occasions. He now hosts Ireland's number one live televised farce, The Lite Lite Show, after threatening to eat if he wasn't given the job. His loyal secret police force, the Ryan Tubridy Resistance Corps, saw off previous host Pat Kenny and other possible candidates such as Gerry Ryan and Linda Martin, and installed Commander Tubridy in the hotseat. Ryan's time as host has seen him perfect his developing talent for hand-to-desk-slapping, an act for which he now holds two gold stars and several million silver medallions. Tubridy rose to fame after Irish grandmothers discovered that he was infact "lovely", wore "lovely jumpers" and "sure isn't he so cute I could eat him up" before revising this statement and acknowledging that there isn't very much of him to eat anyway. Orphaned from birth, Gerry Ryan served as his surrogate mother after finding Tubridy in a suitcase under a sink in the RTÉ canteen. After he split with his wife, Tubridy engaged in a brief sexual relationship with a cardboard cut-out of fellow RTÉ presenter Miriam O'Callaghan. It objected to having such a thin partner and flapped off in disgust to begin a more successful fling with a cardboard cut-out of Tesco underwear model Brad Pitt. Ryan has seventeen daughters who live in four different countries on three continents, though half of them are not actually his. Ryan claims to have read more than 55 million books, and uses big, long, complicated words with ease. His great ambition is to achieve the Guinness World Record for reading War and Peace the most times in one lifetime. He is halfway there.
