2. Jack Charlton and his mother

Blast from the past here from Christmas 1988 on Kenny Live as Jack sat down with Pat after a momentous year for Irish soccer when they featured in Euro 88.

Jack’s mother Cissie was on hand as well to tell the nation about her boy.

And when Pat met the Leinster rugby team

This isn’t from RTE, but we couldn’t resist including Pat’s encounter with the Leinster rugby team after their Heineken Cup final win against Northampton in 2011.

    Good to get him off the state payroll. Overpaid and over-rated. He didn’t even know Irish legend Ray Houghton took a peno in the shoot out in Italia ’90
