    It's on Friday 28th November :)

    While we're on the topic . . . does anyone think that they should consider moving the timeslot of the Late Late Toy Show? Say from 8-9, and then 9.30-10.30. God i always remembered when i was a kid that it was sum struggle to stay awake past then when trying to watch it.

    Isn't that why it's repeated on the weekend during the day?

    Nah, the best thing about it watching it as a kid was that I was allowed stay up late! :cool:
    I say it every year, but it's just not the same without Gaybo. Pat Kenny is ok at the normal Late Late, but he's always been hopelessly wooden during the Toy Show :(
    And they better have more cuter/funnier kids this year - some of last years lot were just annoying brats. :mad:

    Missed last years toy show. That's typical Pat, he's done worse. :D

    Why does he insist on clapping guests when he's finished with them? *cringe*

    I wonder if anything will be different this year? It's never as good as when you were younger is it?

    My checklist:
    The show usually starts with people wondering wtf is going on.

    Pat Kenny is unable to work any radio controlled toys

    One of the kids will drive his tricycle into the audience, everyone will laugh until they get dragged off the floor five minutes later.

    Kenny allows one "common child" to be on the show, called Jacinta, will always be given the doll that sh*ts itself or something to do with hair braiding.

    Meanwhile Tarquin and Tarquinetta from D4 will be given half an hour to discuss the fabulous books they've just read or the current economic climate.

    Kenny will drag some poor people out of the audience to partake in a hilarious game or games (that never work). Again everyone laughs but inside they're crying.

    Billy Barry Kids! All off their t*ts on a sugar high. Probably fed sugar sandwiches all day backstage. Which one will be the first to let the mask slip and stop smiling?

    Some poor celebrity who "never signed up for this" gets dragged onstage. Fake laughter aplenty. They just want to die and who could blame them with Kenny desperately trying to be cool and funny. Just don't mention squatting

    Have I left anything out?

    Going by childhood memories it'll be irritating Billy Barry kids followed by a kid playing classical music on violin/ piano and a kid singing Walking in the Air or O Holy night. In most households the parents will comment on how talented the child is while the overtired child in the house will be both resentful and bored...

    There's been less of the Billy Barry kids over the past few years - I think RTE finally realised that they are universally despised! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    Or one kid will show their "talent" and read a poem not written by them, reading isnt a talent!

    a few token immigrant kids for good measure is almost assured.
