    Toy Show should be dropped it only goes to show the huge gap in social inequality. As you can see no British channel has such a show. Why ? Because they have a little more cop on as to what infuriates the less well off.

    The Forum on Spirituality has been closed for years. Please bring it back, there are lots of Spiritual people in Ireland and elsewhere.

    Should we only do things if a british channel does it too?

    you only had to apply by mail if you were applying for your child to be on it. To get audience tickets you had to apply online

    Even if you applied in writing there was a space included in the application form for email details. Their website clearly states any non application form requests /begging letters would be ignored.

    I'll take your word for it but in the 'write in' section it didn't mention it! Anyway no need to pick this topic to shreds, the chances of being picked were slim ;)

    Exactly. 40,001 to 1 chance of getting a ticket. Horrible odds.

    Lol are people seriously taking a screenshot anyone could make up as legit?

    "You're application" - I know RTE are incompetent at the best of times but surely they have a grasp of correct grammar.

    -"That Gambler from Paraguay made up a phoney ticket"
    -"That means there's one Golden ticket still floating around somewhere!...can you imagine the nerve of that guy, trying to fool the whole world?"
    -"Boy, he really was a crook!"

    My most heartfelt apologies to all who were fooled, I just couldn't pass up an oppertunity to re-enact Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory! :P

    I hope I took your minds off this for a while though!

    From a post of facebook
    All audience members for The Late Late Toy Show 2013 will be contacted by end of business today. If you do not hear from a member of our team by the end of the day please apply again next year once Toy Show applications open. In the interest of fairness we operate a lottery system for ticket allocation. Audience members are selected at random from our database of entries. We have received a record amount of applications this year, over 40,000, many thanks for your interest and we hope that you enjoy the show on Friday. Merry Christmas!
