Droy was a tall and generally uncompromising defender. He played for Chelsea during a particularly turbulent period of the club's history, and was a part of the sides which were relegated to the Second Division in 1974–75, promoted back to the First Division in 1976–77, relegated again in 1978–79 and then promoted again in 1983–84. A feature on The Times' website summed him up as "six feet four inches of hard-core centre back, who had an unsentimental way with a headed clearance and who, from 1971, gave 15 years of no-nonsense service to a mortifyingly declining side." He was Chelsea's Player of the Year in 1978.

Based on the first episode of the show, Pat Stacey of the Evening Herald asserted that Ó Sé and Byrne have no chemistry between them. The Irish Times TV review said it is "a panel show, and the idea – I think – is to be more heavyweight than Derrane and discuss the social and political events of the day, or, as they said, what people are talking about. Except there's also a pointless phone-in poll, a mortifyingly stupid quiz, consumer items and other random bits and bobs" and that it had missed a huge opportunity when Michael Kennedy TD of the Fianna Fáil political party stated he was in support of Tom Kitt's suggestion that the Taoiseach's leadership of the party needed to be discussed by the party, a major coup for the new show hampered by a "confused" and "lightweight" format. The set was also described as "old fashioned" and "clunky".
