Larry is an instituion... they can;t ever get rid of him...

one other classic moment was after a round of Larry's quiz and a poor lad hadn't done so well... live on national radio

(After about 24 questions, of which the lad on the phone got 0 correct)

Larry: Well let's see how you've done - well, they didn't really suit you today, did they?
Man on Phone : Ah **** off Larry, yer only an aul bo***x


Defining moment in history...

alas, Gay has retired, not that he doesn't pop up every now and again... (they nail down the coffin, but he keeps getting out)
