Both presenters have pretty decent guests on this week.
The Graham Norton Show is back after taking a break last week for Children in Need, and the Cork man is bringing with him some stellar celebrity names.
In fairness, Ryan’s lineup is very strong in its own right, with a distinctly Irish-looking entertainment theme on The Late Late Show.
Let’s take a look at our options.
The Late Late Show
Dara O’Briain
One of Ireland’s greatest comedians will be appearing to talk about his new show which tackles the future of food.
The Mock The Week presenter has just finished a 100 show run, so deserves a wee break.
Brendan O’Carroll
The Irish comedy legend will be talking about the huge success of Mrs. Brown’s Boys and the upcoming Christmas special of the smash hit show.
AP McCoy
The retired Tony McCoy will be chatting to Tubs about what it took to become one of the greatest jockeys of all-time, and what lies ahead in the future.

The Graham Norton Show
Tom Hanks
Wilson’s owner himself will be fronting Graham’s sofa this evening, with the two-time Oscar winner discussing his new film, the cold war thriller Bridge of Spies.
David Walliams
The Little Britain star will be the comedic outlet on the sofa, hopefully bonding like a mad yoke with Mr. Hanks.
Peter Capaldi
Sure who else but Dr. Who will be completing the sofa, delivering some magic along the way no doubt, and hopefully channeling the classic character that is Malcolm Tucker.
