Late Late Show 24th May 2019

Say Your Number

No thread? anyway here's a copy and paste from RTE.ie

This week's Late Late Show line-up has been revealed, with Irish tenor and actor Colm Wilkinson and author and influencer Rozanna Purcell among the guests.

Having carved out an impressive path in the musical theatre world, Colm CT Wilkinson performed everywhere from Broadway to the West End, as well as representing Ireland in the 1978 Eurovision Song Contest.

Following 30 years in Toronto, he is back on home soil and joins host Ryan Tubridy to take a look back at his impressive career, as well as treating the audience to a song.

Model and influencer Rozanna Purcell spent years basing her self-worth on how much she weighed, but it took her sister Rachel to be diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukaemia for her outlook to change.

Roz and Rachel join Ryan to discuss the events that led to this realisation and why life is for living and not just about a number on the scales.

After weeks of canvassing and debate, the RTÉ/TG4 Exit Poll results will be announced live in studio following the close of polls by David McCulllagh and Páidí Ó Lionaird, reflecting the nationwide voting patterns in the referendum and European and Local Elections.

Following his retirement from club and international football back in March, former Ireland player Jonathan Walters joins Ryan to chat about how the death of his mother at a young age had such an influence on his career, and what his plans for the future are.


Inter-county referee David Gough is the only openly gay referee working with the GAA, and David joins Ryan to discuss what it was like to come out in the sporting world, and what is being done to improve LGBTQ+ education among the wider GAA community.

In August 2012, Shane Grogan enjoyed a day out at the Galway Races, before an unprovoked attack irrevocably changed his life. Shane’s father Joe Grogan joins Ryan to tell the story of what happened to Shane that night, and to urge people to think before they fight.

Music will be from The Coronas and Ryan will be chatting with Danny from the band about their new single and upcoming tour of Ireland.

Watch The Late Late Show, RTÉ One, Friday, May 24 at 9.35pm.

He's the one Ref who penalises defenders for that pulling and dragging that goes on in nearly every match.

Are these projected results as reliable as the loiveline text poll

Skid X

If RTE Sport didn't advertise during the LLS ad breaks, they would have more money to show more sport.

Welsh Megaman

How exciting, the poll results!


Or just look at the Irish Times website who have already published them.

And there is that awful Nivea ad!

Why are only 3 players walking out of the tunnel, where are the rest of them and why is the manager manhandling one of the players

If RTE used all its ad time for things other than RTE, surely they'd make way more revenue?

I never understand why they have so many ads for their own schedule. It's really not that hard to find out what's on at any given time.

And anyway, they're all covered in Late Late interviews.

I voted alright.

One of the candidates had "gardener" in his 3 word description of himself.

He won't be pulling up many trees in Dublin Co. Council, one suspects.

(Although I threw him a number for it)

yep, there's a similar irony with the tv licence.

If they're so sure they'll prosecute the offenders, then why bother advertising it at all? Save your money. I thought you had them all coming up on the computer, a court appearance and a fine right? (could you handle the "embarrassment"? ) So there's no need to advertise it right? :rolleyes:

Ryan will be delira for his family party

It's all pointless, the Jury vote will overturn the Public vote as usual.

1% don't know how they voted,

After the decade of torture endured by Maurice McCabe, the fact that there's still 14% voting for Frances is a total joke

I gave her a vote.

I really didn't want to, but I fear a collection of various different protest "parties" would lead to more nonsense like we're seeing across the water.

I'm not 100% certain, but I don't know if that was footage from an actual match.

Some while back a TV license inspector came to my door and asked me do I have a TV and I said, yes a 50” one in there. Then he asked why I didn’t have a license and I said “your records must be wrong asI have it in my bedroom..”.He said “The records day that you *name* of “no **** Road have no license” As he was st wrong address I now knew a neighbour had no license, talk about GDPR.
