The Late Late Show - 29th. May 2020

Welsh Megaman

The final LLS of the season!









Plus this adorable lil' creature...






Hello you.


Ryan will catch up with some key workers from frontline services including nurses, doctors, nursing home staff, and paramedics who have played a vital role in the battle against Covid-19.

Among those lining up to voice the nation’s thanks to Ireland’s frontline workers will be Uachtarán na hÉireann, Michael D. Higgins, in an interview which will be pre-recorded at the gardens at Áras an Uachtaráin.

The inimitable Sinéad O’Connor will be back in studio for another performance.

There will be a strong touch of Hollywood on the show, with Saoirse Ronan chatting to Ryan. Colin Farrell will also be joining the show from LA.

Ireland’s record goalscorer Robbie Keane will discuss how his experience of the pandemic inspired him to fundraise for those working in hospitals around Ireland,

And Sibéal Ní Chasaide will be in studio with a special performance dedicated to all those who have lost their lives during the crisis.

The Late Late Show, tonight, RTE One, 9.35pm.

Next week there is a repeat of the Brendan Grace Late Late Show tribute and the following week you are straight into "The Best of the Late Late Show - Episode 1"

JP Liz V1

Is it a best bits show tonight of this season?

Who is doing The Hucklebuck for the late Brendan Bowyer, Crystal Swing Derek or Tubs himself

A triple dose of Saoirse and her "what's my accent this week," Farrell and his posing and fidgeting and "I'm no longer this contrived bad boy," and effing Sinead O'Connor screaming her way through songs.......she's been on nearly as much as Daniel these days.

Hopefully the interview with Mickey D in the garden of the Aras will be enlivened by Leo wandering past in the background, flashing the moobs, bag of cans in hand, on his way to another sesh in the park with the lads.

Her accent will probably be the same as it always has been. But that won't stop very boring men on the internet from spouting their usual shite every time she opens her mouth.

But will Ryan deliver his newly discovered soliloquy (or is it a monologue, or even a homily) to open the show, in an effort to instil kindness, before he starts off asking all and sundry about death, illness, the “thing”, mental health, loss and despair?

Macdarack

Sinead f€€kin o Connor, what cult will she be representing tonight, has she been a Rabbi yet?

We shall be duly humbled by its greatness and people across the land shalll be filled with tears and shall prostrate themselves across their television sets.

Is his foxy young friend Kevin still up the Aras to assist with the tea, scones and cream horns?

Looks like an interesting line up to me.

I'm in (sort of every night nowadays )

Head of State on a chat show, that's pretty cool.

The final final late late.

Great stuff - had a Bulmers - feel like I could drink 22 of them - but up in the morning.

Swim , golf and cycle all in one day - amazing what you can do in 5 Km. Was like a covid triathlon.

Doctors room ghost

Here we go people.
GO ON THE OWL

Welsh Megaman

Evening all

We made it to the end of the season

FixdePitchmark

aaaaahhhhh

here we ****ing go.

Newbie20

Christ could they not have just one upbeat kind of an episode during all this. People are sick of hearing about Covid. Thanking front line staff is getting a bit tiring now. Don’t get me wrong, they are brilliant and we all appreciate the work they have all done during this time but this constant clapping ****e etc is so cringe.

Welsh Megaman

Yeah, great speech Ryan.

Now get Hucklebucking (RIP Brendan).

castletownman

Thanks to the musicians and the celebrities, who probably didn't donate to a different charity every week like the ordinary Joe Soaps.

FixdePitchmark

Wonder what Sinead will be on tonight

Atlantic Dawn

Ha ha, the VHS tape nearly got stuck.

All in all that sounds like a delightful day.

I'm having a Bulmers, didn't do any of the rest.

castletownman

Sabine may get the oul' scissors at Michael D. His hair is in dire need of a trimming.

Pinch Flat

Now tubs theres a plough. There's spuds that need sowing.

A big boob

FixdePitchmark

He has always been a bit too political ?

Atlantic Dawn

Could he organise for every house in the country to get a cutlery set to remember Covid? That or a 6 pack of Corona.

You need to see him on Tommy Tiernan's show to see cool.

FixdePitchmark

It is a cool monument in fairness

Atlantic Dawn

What about supermarket workers? They are in the most dangerous employment in the country outside of healthcare if you believe how dangerous we are told the virus is.

Pinch Flat

Off licence workers as well. Fellas in my local offy deserve a medal.

alan partridge aha

Oh fcuk right off they're doing their job and getting paid for it.

was talking to a few of them over it - and not many got it , kind of has you perplexed about this thing.

alan partridge aha

We could do without you and Tubridy

Truthvader

Know everyone loves him and he always does the right thing etc etc but am I the only person in the iniverse who thinks Migel D is just weird and creepy? Is there no-one else???

tintin67

Very fookin embarrassing now if Leo ran past on his way out of the Vice Regal Lodge with his shirt off and his bag of Dutch Gold shouting "Yup da lads"

And a drink.

:D

NIMAN

Gotta laugh at the irony in all this.

Tubs says about frontline workers being poorly remunerated!

And then the Pres says we need to look at the nature of work and who is important.

Yeah, like how many nurses would we get for Ryan's wages.

Atlantic Dawn

There should be prayers said for the unused kegs of beer taken back from the pubs to be destroyed.

Welsh Megaman

Michael D is thinking, "Christ sake, it's f**king hot out here, get on with your questions!"

Say Your Number

Michael D, Michael D, up on his bikeldy.

Michael D is a decent guy, but he is a real hard-core leftie, who basically wants everyone to get everything they want for free.
