    Would it hurt them to have a Christmas theme for a change?
    It might hurt them financially. Presumably they are not promoting Disney for free.

    Because when I hear "Christmas in Ireland," I think "The Little Mermaid."

    Big excitement among my kids about watching this tonight.

    I used to enjoy it, but it's more a talent show now than a toy show, which is disappointing.

    Disney also have Christmas themed franchises. Sponsor one of them. Or get an alternative sponsor who has product placement in a Christmas themed set.

    A theme? About that well known Christmas Classic A Little Mermaid? I know the toy show is totally about commercialised nonsense at the best of times, but I hope they haven't sold out utterly and totally this year.

    Might the special guest be David Attenborough?

    Dunno. Remember that time the "soundest man in pop" Ed Sheeran kindly and selflessly turned up to give a fan a couple of tickets or something?

    Such a shame he was so busy that the only fan he could find time to do this for was the one on the most watched TV show of the year. The sweetheart.

    For those who enjoy the Toy show, enjoy.

    Not my cup of tea, though.

    Hey none of that now! Ed is so sound that we can all overlook his utterly atrocious music and omnipresence in our lives - in fact, we have a duty too!

    Even my young kids said last year during it,

    "not another song"

    And on more than one occasion.

    Half expecting Conor McGregor to show up and take a swing at Tubridy. Not even as an invited guest, he just shows up and decks him.
