LET'S DO THIS!!

The theme of Friday night’s show is
The Wonderful World of Roald Dahl. The opening number is based on one of the favourite books by the late children’s author, Fantastic Mr Fox, the tale of the crafty fox who outsmarts the dim-witted farmers and eats all their chickens.

TOMORROW NIGHT, 9.35PM!

That thread was started in midsummer. The official Late Late Toy Show Megathread™ should only ever be started on Late Late Toy Show Eve.

I hope it won't end up full of AH-style comments like that when the 'outsiders' descend from AH.

The most overhyped show ever, this..

The man hasn’t stfu about it these past weeks and weeks..

Guaranteed to be just as rubbish as any other Late Late show he has hosted!

I think I will give it a watch only because I think this could be the death nail in his RTE career
All Toy Shows from Gaybos time was the live audience of dressed up, drunk adults and the participation of the Billy Barry kids and strange kids demonstrating the non working toys.
With this virtual guests and very few kids I think Tubs will be found out as the amateur he is

Whatever happens, it will be hailed as a success. Noel Kelly has already written the articles for the meeja.

This thread, however, will be fandabidozi.

Hi,
I know The Toy Show is repeated on Saturday but why is it on so late on Friday evening? It doesn't end until 11:55pm, even for a 12 or 13 year old that's too late. Give me 1 good reason why it shouldn't start at 8pm....

He should leave any mention of the pandemic outside the studio door for this but the miserable bollocks wont be able to resist.

I don't watch, but it irritates me that Tubridy makes the Toy Show all about himself.

I can only imagine what he will be like this year. :rolleyes:

Why is everyone so downcast?

I live in New Zealand and love showing my daughter the magic of our Toy Show. She's 5, and she loves it!. It's something unique to Ireland. Appreciate it, lads!

Looking forward to it this year. My granda had a mini-stroke the night of it last year and I had to rush to Naas and missed it.

Happy to say he's still here, in good form & hoping to see him at a social distance. Think toy show will always remind me of 2019.

I'm a big fan of Roald Dahl, but I wish that just once they could have a Christmas theme.
