"Dreams will be coming true next week for kids all around the country and for a small boy from Dundrum, Co Down who used to sit on his da's knee and watch Gay Byrne tell us all about the toys. And if we were really lucky, and we were good boys, [they] might just turn up on Christmas morning. “Next Friday night, another dream comes true for me as I actually get to host the show that I watched as a wee fella with my dad, my mum and my brothers. Say a prayer for all on board as I try to hold it together."Kielty also had a particular message for those who will be tuning in next week, adding:
"To all the kids who are watching tonight and are going to be watching next week and to all those let loose in the studio, one little sentence: 'Go easy on me.' I can't wait."Meanwhile, the Late Late also released this funny teaser for next week's Toy Show in which Kielty gets advice about hosting the iconic programme from a group of children. This year's Late Late Toy Show will take place on Friday, 24 November at 9.35pm on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player.
