Welcome back everyone.
As with every year since this vacuous jackanapes took over hosting duties, the daily puff pieces from the usual suspects on behalf of NKM have proclaimed the return of the Riffmeister general to his usual spot in Castle Montrosia.
Ryan is well rested, energised, ready to go, going to bring something new this year...ad infinitum.
You know, bullsh1t.
Here's what's coming our way tomorrow evening.
"Live Irish Friday nights are back with a jig as Lord of the Dance star Michael Flatley, Love Island's Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, football pundit Pat Spillane, and singer Tolü Makay lead a stellar line-up for this week's series return of The Late Late Show."
As Tubridy is no doubt thinking to himself, soft show thank God.
"Michael will talk about how his mother encouraged him to pursue acting and his excitement at finally seeing his movie (Threat Level Midnight?) hit the big screen. "
"Ryan will also chat with Love Island winner Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu live in studio about dominating this year's villa, why Davide is her type on paper, whether she might find herself heading back to the villa in a different role and how she found herself representing Ireland at an international beauty contest."
Yeah.
Pat will bring the misery.
"After 30 years on our summer television screens, Pat Spillane has called it a day as a Sunday Game analyst.
He will speak with Ryan about his decision, what he plans to do next and that emotional tribute to his father that captured the hearts of the nation."
Music by Tolü Makay.
"Speaking about The Late Late Show's eagerly-awaited return, Ryan said: "I am absolutely delighted to be back in the hot seat this Friday night and we are back with a bang!
"Friday night promises a great, fun and fascinating array of guests. Where else would you want to be? Put the kettle on, or pour yourself a glass. It's Friday, it's The Late Late Show and we’re open for business!""
Indeed.
