It's the last waltz, and the guests include ...

- Neil Diamond
- Gabriel Byrne
- Alan Carr
- Diarmuid Gavin
- Pamela Stephenson

These musical guests will each be performing with the RTE Concert Orchestra

- Bell XI
- Colm Wilkinson
- Il Divo




How could you not want to stay in to watch it?

Colmo52

Hopefully the Beeb will keep him


*crosses fingers*

patwicklow

RTE would seriously want to listen to the public and sort out the Late Late.
It has totally gone to the dogs since Tubridy took over.

RTE management should really be worried at having their flagship show scrape the realms it has of late.

Tubridy's interviewing style is like he has scribbled a few questions on the palm of his hand and hope for the best.

Seriously RTE,sort it out over the summer when the golden boy is away pestering the Brits (someone's head will no doubt roll at the BBC over that wondrous decision)The country's flagship show should not be let die a slow and excruciating death like this.

I wouldn't be a "regular" viewer but watch it occasionally when I've nothing better to do. I find Tubridy okay, he comes across as more "interested" than his Kenny, he seems to engage better with his guests, lets them tell their story the way want to. He seems to perform well when handling difficult topics, or even the more bizarre ones.

Rhys Ifans: On a personal level, I find the MI6 connection far more disturbing than the IRA connection.

Tubridy: Well, we'll go with the Irish angle here, if that's okay.

Repeat every week.

OMG OMG What will I do without DLB for the whole summer

JONJO THE MISER

Thank god, hope he gets lost in london.

Tubridy is'nt that bad, the quality of guests has been awful, RTE cant afford the big names anymore instead they just seem to raid the RTE canteen on a Friday night.

From RTE's website

Host Ryan Tubridy is joined by guests including Neil Diamond, Gabriel Byrne, Alan Carr, BellX1, Colin Wilkinson and Il Divo, who perform with the RTE National Concert Orchestra. Last in the series

You wouldnt normally find the Orchestra hanging around the canteen...

Who's Colin Wilkinson? Was he sick for a while?

Hootanany

Hope it his last one Brutal show

Kev_ps3

TubridyTweets Ryan Tubridy
We finish the Late Late Show (Season 2) tonight with @neildiamond, BellX1, Il Divo, Colm Wilkiinson and @alancarr. That's for starters...

more to the point there isnt 1 name i could come up with who could take over if tubbers did leave(which wont happen for a long while yet). NOT 1 name.

Welsh Megaman

Neil Diamond's also playing the Aviva next month with Mary Byrne, first I've heard of it! Not a single ad on the radio about it

*sarcasm-o-meter explodes*

Considering what she gets paid for two hours a week, adding any more would bankrupt RTE.

Nonsense, I'll take care of him. Actually, am curious to hear what he'll be like on the sat slot on R2. Went off Ross on the wireless after the beeb neutered him and made him safe. Haven't listened to Norton; think he's terribly over-exposed.

Only saw RT for the first time when was back home in Feb. He had some mad woman on, banging on about visions of a lady or something. I felt like I'd stepped back into the 80s...

That was one of his better shows:D

This just in...An Taoiseach, Enda Kenny will be joining us on the Late Late Show this evening. #busynightahead

says Tubridy on the Twitter

he'll probably be performing his Obama cover version again.

Was just gonna say the same.. He should rub Tubridy's smug nose in it.. remember him the last time saying sarcastically "what do you think will happen first.. you becoming Taoiseach of Mayo winning an All Ireland?"...

first thing he should to is commiserate with Tubridy on his cousin and all of his other FF cronies losing their seats... well the few of them that had the balls to face the electorate...

Graham Norton for me tonight so. I have watched maybe half an episode of the LLS this year. Tubridy is appalling

So you're replacing Tubridy with Graham Norton.. The irony of it..

Minstrel27

I don't see the irony. One awful show being replaced with a less awful show.

Who is replacing Norton at the BBC?

Minstrel27

Nobody suggested he was leaving the BBC.

You're missing the point. Tubridy is off to replace Norton on the BBC. But you're replacing Tubridy with Norton. That's ironic.

ah lads....stop!

You see, you are replacing Tubridy with Norton.

At the same time, The BBC are replacing Norton with Tubridy on the radio for the Summer.

You know

It's like raaaaain, on your wedding day,
It's a freeee ride, when you've already paid etc

I didn't realise we were talking about the radio.

Hootanany

Yup Norton for me as well

Daisy!

Best line up he's had in a while to be fair. Look he could have Obama and the Queen on the line up and most of you still wouldn't be happy! :P

And this is coming from someone that can't stand the toe rag by the way!

Fairly sure it will be our glorious leader himself - it's been widely reported as such.

If it's that waste of space Callan I'll be very annoyed.

Hey Jack! If you hate the Late Late Show so much, why do you still watch it?
