Late Late Show Friday 12th January 2018

Fr Tod Umptious

None other than former White House press secretary Sean Spicer will be on.

Tubridy v a high profile Trump staffer (albeit a former one)

This should be fun.

Of course Sean has Irish roots and was educated at an exclusive Catholic boarding school so that will keep them busy talking for most of the interview.

Welsh Megaman

Also on tonight’s one-thread-only LLS...

Hollywood star Liam Neeson joins former White House press secretary Sean Spicer on the line-up for this week’s Late Late Show.

The Ballymena-born Oscar-nominated actor will be in studio to chat about being one of the world’s biggest action stars as his new movie The Commuter lands in cinemas.

Presenter Maura Derrane, Snapchat star James Kavanagh [the artist formerly known to ‘sheet readers as Exchequer Street Boy] and ex Irish international footballer Stephen Hunt will be joining Ryan to chat about the things they’d like to bin as 2018 gets underway.

Viewers will also be meeting some of the brightest minds from the BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition including the winner of this year’s competition.

Plus music from The Academic; and following his health scare after the Late Late Country Special a hale and hearty Charlie Landsborough returns to perform.

Rock Lesnar

Sean Spicer, this is not gonna be good, might watch this interview from behind the couch.

No doubt Liams old acting teacher will be in the audience, and he'll have to rehash the lines from taken to.

Mr E

The Spicer interview will be very tame.

Berserker

Liam Neeson, Maura Derrane, James Kavanagh and Stephen Hunt are also going to be on. The misery will be provided by Deborah Somorin, who became homeless at 13, pregnant at 14, lost her mother to suicide at 17 and works for PwC now as an accountant.

Wonder if it is recorded or live? If it's live, it'll be interesting to see he says about the latest happenings.

:mad: (I'd use the "embarrased-face" one if there were a version with the mouth corners going down rather than up :rolleyes:)

Oh, it will. It'll be a load of nothing.

He is,so another one that Ryan made earlier.

Skid X

Tubs is blessed that he has Spicer in on a day where Trump has said something controversial.

I mean, the chances of that must have been, like amazingly huge, so bigly big.

FixdePitchmark

Great guest list

Only a lightweight could make a balls of this.

Welsh Megaman

Evening all

I think Trump has had like 4 of the most amazing press secretaries ever.

Even Liam wouldn't walk down Parnell street at this time.

He got past everything in Taken - but the Luas - **** off

AMKC

Am looking forward to watching this one. Hope the interview with Sean Spicer is live. Not a bad line up at all this week.

Rock Lesnar

Fake news gets a mention, plenty more where that came from folks

Welsh Megaman

There had better be either a hamster or a slinky in this next item, otherwise I ain't interested.

Ol' Donie

Kid didn't start sentence with "So..."

Full marks for this project.

Skid X

2.8 seconds into the Young Scientists, which should be a feelgood genuine celebration of talented schoolkids, and we're being warned about predatory assault drugs in drinks.

EPAndlee

Spicer will know full well what he will be asked and will have his answers already planned.

It's wouldn't be the late late without a depressing ending to the show

FixdePitchmark

In fairness for all the negativity about Ireland and the youth of today.

Go into that exhibition and you can see why companies are coming to Ireland - tax one thing , but we should be proud of our kids.

This image of backwards Ireland is 50 years our of date

Science, Technology and self confidence.

Also - some fantastic teachers out there.

somesoldiers

Good idea,can you use it to check if you are getting good gear?

Builders of the future?? Did you mean engineers Ryan? :rolleyes:

FixdePitchmark

Not into technology... explains a lot of his intelligence and success.

I think the last time Liam Neeson was on, was the 50th anniversary LLS show

He was as pissed as most of the posters here were, that was a brilliant night.

I can imagine Ryan screaming to put the breaks on a project like that.

"Cure Cancer? Are you mad? How would we fill the show? More RTE guests? IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?"
