Atlantic Dawn

JP Liz V1

amdublin

To be honest, if this season's shows have similar content to last, I'd be worried that they might find some of the audience hanging from them after the show... And possibly some of the guests.

This weeks guests:

Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley
Rose of Tralee Maria Walshe
Baz Ashmawy and his mammy (I'm serious)
A miserly slot (or 2) (or 3)

Quality
I'd still wager a last minute drop in by Louis or some other stalwart.

mr kr0nik

Better get the booze in I guess. I won't get through it otherwise.

Another very poor lineup ......

For Reals

Apart from the new Rose (played on by the song, 'I kissed a girl') being gay, which might have been a deal twenty years ago......not much in it.
RTE 'personalities' talking about RTE shows..... I give you Baz the twat.

johnire

Baz????
Help!!! An early night for me so!

Funnyonion79

Yay it's back! You're all back! I'm back!

Love September

I see the same old kind of guests are back too

I applied for the Late Late audience a few weeks ago, really hope I'm picked!! From those in the know - how much notice do you get if you get to be in the audience? When I tried to submit my application form it was hanging for ages and then disappeared so I'm assuming (hoping) it went through...

ballsymchugh

for the friday night tipple, i would recommend st mel's pale ale.
now, even though i'm teetotal, i'm just sayin, nothing to do with knowing the owners or anything, but still, it's lahvleeeeee

Let's hope some boardsies get tix and they can infiltrate and find out all the LLS secrets........big prize for the first boardsie to make it in to the Green room

efb

I'll be in Spain! Chasing guys around a pool! Enjoy LLS!!!

Is the worm Tubridy gone yet?

foxy farmer

A six figure salary to present these. Ive seen better guests at village festival. Any chance of a good studio debate with audience participation ? Kenny and Tubridy couldn't handle what would come up in an unscripted unreheased debate.

It is poor .. but yeah there's been a lot worse ones for certain.

ProudDUB

Jaze, is it that time of year 'tall, 'tall 'tall? The evenings are fair drawing in.....

Callan57

I'm not watching unless Joan Rivers makes an appearance

CountyHurler

Just spotted this on the Twitter machine...

"Delighted to announce that Sky Broadband is to sponsor the @RTELateLateShow for a 2nd year starting Fri @SkyIreland"



Sky have also announced that they have change their slogan to bring them more in line with RTE. So where they used to have "Believe In Better", they now have

"Believe in Nepotism and Consistent Mediocrity"

I think it has a nice ring to it.

Welsh Megaman

Also on tonight's show, music from Interskalactic

*dons porkpie hat*

*practices 'nutty' dancing*

zweton

is conor mc gregor on it tonight?

How long before the first clip of the year is shown and Tubs asks a guest about his/her 'Irishness'?

What?? No Amy???

logically

I find it amazing that people bother watching a show that clearly annoys them so much and then go to the trouble of writing about it. This is most evident on Twitter.

As soon as possible I'd say!

squadro

Beer sweet sweet beer.: lech with a drop of tk white. We'll it is only 6:15.

wp_rathead

In fairness Paul McGinley is usually bit of banter

Baz, however, does me head in.

brick man

According to promos it is in HD for first time tonight

Kerrydude1981

Wonder how long before Jason Byrne will be on this season?

fartman

Because we're all miserable bastards and this excuse of an entertainment show gives us something to whinge, moan and laugh at on a Friday night after a long week in work while we relax with a beer/wine.

Hope that clears things up.

Why? They didn't win.

I personally can't wait to see this quality show back on our screens.

Actually Baz's new programme is shown on Sky1 not RTE.

The lineup is not great tonight but I will look forward to what is going on in this thread.

I'm here. Just getting the wine ready in anticipation for a great night of slagging off the first show of the season. Bring it on!!

NightOfTheHunt

I am also going to view tonight's show.

amdublin

Oh btw for fans of the 50th anniversary lls (a great night imo)! It is ALL on the RTE website.

For me, I just went straight to the last 4 minutes of it and watched Dickie Rock and the RTE orchestra perform To Whom it Concerns. I always liked that song from the 60's but like this version of it best (the 6o's version is a bit frenetic imo)

CountyHurler

Ah yes, I love September...



Everybody feels like their are just back to school. We've all got the new covers on our books. Except for the messers down the back of the class, who are still 'acting the maggot'. I have written on my notepad that I must 'try harder' but I've learnt a lot from last year, am I will be better this year..
