Sports journalist Paul Kimmage will feature on tonight's Ray D'Arcy Show, as he talks to Ray on why he declined the opportunity to interview Lance Armstrong in Dublin.

The disgraced cyclist will be appearing at the upcoming One Zero conference in the capital, and extended an invite to Kimmage to conduct the session, however Kimmage turned it down.

Kimmage has consistently maintained that the idea of drugs being used in other sports cannot be ruled out, and so will also be discussing his recent controversial comments in relation to the use of drugs in rugby and in other sports.

Brenda Donohue, Elaine Crowley, Gerald Kean, Katherine Lynch and Karl Spain will all be joining Ray on the couch to talk about a gruelling few months in their lives, as they restored health and well-being to mind and body for the popular TV series.
