Keith Barry posted today and yesterday that he's on, doing an excerpt of 8 Deadly Sins.

No word on anyone else yet though.

RTE canteen is probably empty so they have their "researchers" out scouring the streets for "guests" to interview

Could end up with indepth interviews into "dealing on the boardwalk", learning the "magic knock" to get into a pub and RT will lead a discussion on the eggs JFK ate at easter

well with the day thats in it, there's has to be a priest on

RTE and priests ??? bound to end in tears

MrJoeSoap

Buddy Greco is going to be on it. 85 years old. Will probably bring down the average age of the guests a bit.

oh? found an aul shebeen with the back door open is it?

Nothing on RTE site about who's on....maybe it's recorded or else the think they have a captive audience so won't post line up...?

Welsh Megaman

Noswaith dda, Ryan mentioned Buddy Greco on his show this morning, no other announcements on the official facebook and twitter. The last resort could be Liveline's 'Funny Friday' crew :eek::eek:

EDIT: Just found this:-

Folk the Recession live on the #LateLateShow tonight Featuring: Eleanor Shanley, Séamus Begley, Frankie Lane, Mick Hanley and Paul Kelly continue touring with the delightfully titled 'Folk the Recession' show, a lively mix of music, story and song.

Sorry Syl!

I'm gonna be watching without beer tonight.. ... I feel like one of those Russian soldiers that was sent in to war without a rifle..

Welsh Megaman

Also on, the 'Kilkenny Miracle Transplant Mum'. More here:-

And marathon swimmer Steve Redmond.

I should get out more! Fancy a pint, ArtSmart?

Cicero

Might be a bit of a Barney McKenna Tribute night...RIP... Would be a good idea if not for tonight then for future shows.

Ah here lads, it's The Late Late Show, not The Mooney Show..

Just heard (from the RTE continuity announcer) that Keith Barry is also on tonight.. I'm just wondering, is it likely to be a pre record tonight, given that it's Good Friday?

Atlantic Dawn

Diarmaid Jaysus Gavin is going to be on, hopefully he is tanked up like his last visit.

eiresandra

There has been a lot of names mentioned here, and every one of them ****e. Thank God for the Lionel Richie special on ITV.

Wonder will Keith's performance be as strange as his last one with the nurses?!!

JonathanAnon

Just caught the promo before the news.

Coming up on The Late Late Show just after the news, Diarmuid Gavin unveils his latest grand design for Chelsea. One of the legendary members of The Rat Pack, Buddy Greco, drops in for a tune and a chat. We'll meet the Irish born chef cooking up a storm in the States. And Waterford's international master of mentalism, bamboozles us with his magic.. We'll have music tonight from the winners of the All Ireland Schools Choir Competition, as well as a collection of Ireland's finest folk singers.

Cant believe Diarmuid Gavin is doing Chelsea again.. He was on whinging with Marian a couple of weeks ago about how he only entered last year for patriotic reasons... Lets see how he does without two million euro of State money...

Evening Late Late Show People!

Presume we will all be posting soberly tonight?!

Or cancel tonight's planned show and repeat the Dubliners tribute from 1987.....

I love this thread, saves me having to watch the wretched show at all ...

clappyhappy

Nothing there appealing,think I might watch a couple of recorded episodes of homeland and the masters golf. Enjoy it if watching. Happy Easter.

Good Evening Diddler! I've just opened a bottle of Shiraz *Hangs head in shame*

The School Choir singing tonight who won the All Ireland competition in Belfast will be Wesley College from Ballinteer.

That is my rival school; I am a past pupil of

Newpark Comprehensive School.

I was listening to a documentary on Radio One earlier (god that sounds bad when I look at it written down ) about a reformed alcoholic who said that "drink spoiled everything"...

I'm NOT drinking tonight while watching The Late Late Show, for the first time in a few years... What are the chances that show will actually be GREAT, and it was in fact the drink that was similarly spoiling it for me over the last few years? (coincidentally starting when Tubridy began hosting)...

I await your opinions on my hypothesis, and will keep a happiness log throughout the show to test my theory..

Radio 1 have some excellent Documentaries, it is one of the things they do well.

Well worth checking out their archive

Lady Chatterton

I love gardening but I always preferred watching Gerry Daly, Dermot O'Neill and Helen Dillon. I'm not a fan of Diarmuid Gavin.

Aoife9

Good evening LLSers!! how's all tonight! MrsD Sláinte! just opened a lovely pinot grigio! tastes even better tonight! no shame here!

Oracle

Has Diarmuid had his rant yet?

JonathanAnon

I know that guy Stephen Nugent, he's talking about.. Did work for him a few years ago.. He's a decent guy..

Lady Chatterton

I think we should organise a church gate collection for poor old Diarmuid :mad: He is so negative

Aoife9

Jaysus I'm riveted by this already!:rolleyes: Hubby threatening to jump ship to ITV for Lionel Ritche at 10 o'Clock!

Atlantic Dawn

I'd say RTE are sweating this one and hoping he says nothing liablous.
