Late Late lineup

Sure what else would you be doing on a Friday night?

The Late Late Show is continuing to air throughout the Covid-19 crisis, often with guests appearing via webcam, and those in studio adhering to social distancing guidelines.

Here’s this week’s lineup.

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar will be live in studio to bring all the very latest developments to viewers regarding the ongoing crisis, with a roadmap for the lifting of safety restrictions expected to have been revealed to the public by the time the show goes to air.

Picture This, who recently performed at the One World: Together At Home concert, will be in studio to perform a number of songs and to discuss their support of the work of children’s hospice, The LauraLynn Foundation.

Normal People actor Paul Mescal will be on screen to discuss his rise to fame via his portrayal of Connell in the show, as well as all those graphic sex scenes that have the nation talking.

In March of this year, Laois couple Niall and Aisling Donoher launched an online campaign to raise €2 million needed for their one-year-old son, Dan, to receive life-saving treatment. In just 50 days, and with the support of the kind people of Ireland and the GAA community, they reached their goal.

RTE presenter Evanne Ní Chuilinn and GAA stars Henry Shefflin, Aidan O’Shea and Kieran Donaghy will chat to Ryan about how the GAA community has pulled together during the current crisis.

Ryan will also catch up with Tom Cullen, the little boy who stole hearts with his Nanny Pat on The Late Late Toy Show last November.

The Late Late Show will kick off on Friday night at 9.35pm.
