Disco

Molly-Mae Hague won't be back in Ireland anytime soon, according to The Clare Echo. Remember when she took a private plane to an underage disco in Co. Longford? We do.

The Queens Nightclub in Ennis announced during the airing of Love Island that the social media influencer would appear for a meet-and-greet in August.

Tickets had been on sale for the event, but the nightclub have now confirmed that Molly-Mae has postponed her trip indefinitely to Co. Clare.

"She would like to apologies to all her fans. Full refunds available on tickets already purchased from both eventbrite.com and Kaffeine," they added.

"Stay tuned to our social Media Accounts for further updates. Apologies for any inconvenience caused."

Molly-Mae has been dating professional boxer Tommy Fury since mid-way through the ITV reality show, but is currently undergoing photoshoots in Los Angeles.

The star has yet to comment on the postponement of her nightclub appearance, after winners Greg O'Shea and Amber Gill spent the weekend in the county to see the Cliffs of Moher.

You're missing out on some Wild Atlantic Way beauty, gal. Your loss, we say.

A new documentary is set to air on RTE Radio One, which recants all of the historic details of forty years of underage disco, Wezz. 

Whether you deem it famous or infamous, the disco at the Old Wesley Rugby Club in Donnybrook, Dublin became a cult pastime for many young Dubliners. 

Wezz was much like any teenage disco up and down the country, and with the descriptions of makeup disasters, shifting rituals and illicit drinking, we're sure that while this documentary focuses solely on Wezz, it will be relatable for any Irish person who attended an underage disco throughout secondary school. 

Love Letter to Wezz recalls the anecdotes of the discos from the 80s up until its closure in 2015. 

With gems littering the reminiscent documentary like 'the boys wore so much hair gel "you could break a piece off"' and descriptions of the pre GHD days when hair ironing was a necessity, we're already dying to hear the full radio piece.

It includes interviews with attendees from different time frames, and the differences in anecdotes are startling.

From Maniac 2000 montages to the 'drunk room' (we all know the one) the doc seriously takes us back.

The documentary will air on RTE Radio One at 1pm today, or you can listen to it here.

Decades before he became a Friday night staple in the late 1990s, Graham Norton was making studio audiences laugh, and thanks to the wonder that is the world wide web, we've all been given an opportunity to see it.

In footage, which was originally uploaded to YouTube in 2014 but has been doing the rounds again this week, a teenage Graham is seen taking part in a hearty debate on the merits of teenage discos on a show called Youngline.

Sounding like the voice of reason among a group of teens who appear to have had a banter bypass, Graham asks his Youngline contributors who seem particularly concerned about the teenage discos: "What's the big deal? It's an oul dance."

Hinting at the notoriously witty chat show host he was to become in the future, Graham then fielded a question about his disco sexcapades with the same tongue-in-cheek manner we love him for today.

Ladies, this is gold.
