Late Late Show

In case you’re staying in tonight.

It’s Friday night! You know what that means? Half the country will out galavanting, while the other half finds a decent series to binge on on Netflix.

But if, like many of us, you are bordering on completing the entire streaming service, there are some interesting guests on tonight’s episode of The Late Late Show.

Ahead of the release of re-imagined Disney favourite Dumbo, host Ryan Tubridy chats with Colin Farrell about what fans can expect from the live action remake, and as an ambassador for Special Olympics Ireland, the Dublin actor will be joined by some of the medal holders to celebrate their achievements at the World Games in Abu Dhabi.

Following on from what was another successful week for the Irish at Cheltenham, Ryan will be joined on the couch by trainer Ted Walsh, double winning jockey Rachael Blackmore and Gold Cup champion Paul Townend to take a look back at the stand out moments of this year’s festival.

As we enter in to the last week of Dancing with the Stars, Ryan will be joined on the sofa by finalists Johnny Ward, Cliona Hagan and Mairead Ronan to see how they’re feeling ahead of Sunday’s grand finale, and to discuss whether the coveted Glitterball Trophy will be going to a woman for the first time.

Jessica Bowes was left with long term physical and psychological damage after a vicious assault by the father of her children left every bone in her face broken. Jessica joins Ryan to discuss the events that led to the attack, and why she waived her anonymity to speak out against domestic violence laws.

Music on the show will be from Aslan and Screaming Orphans.

As usual, the Late Late Show airs on RTÉ One at 9.35pm.
