RORY O’NEILL (AKA Panti Bliss) will be making an appearance on RTÉ’s The Saturday Night Show this weekend – his first since the Pantigate controversy earlier this year.

Panti retaliated with the now famous Noble Call speech at the Abbey Theatre in Dublin:
Since then O’Neill has been honoured by gay magazine Attitude, and is the subject of an upcoming documentary, The Queen of Ireland.
