Ah, Friday night, the night of the week where, after four nights of wanting to, you can officially curl up on the couch with a glass (or bottle) or wine and watch some excellent television.

Everyone loves a bit of Graham Norton, so when we heard the line up for his show tonight, we got pretty excited.

The show will feature one of Taylor Swift's most infamous ex-boyfriends, Tom Hiddleston, who will be parking his butt on Graham's couch to chat about his role in upcoming action flick Kong: Skull Island.

Also on the show will be actress Ruth Wilson, who is all set to discuss her role in Hedda Gabler, a production by The National Theatre.

Comedian Ricky Gervais will also be in attendance, providing some comic relief while also chatting about his up-coming comedy tour. 

And to complete the line up is Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe, who will be joining Graham to discuss his latest stage acting endeavour Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead.

If you would rather tune into The Late Late Show to see how Ryan Tubridy is feeling after all the antics from the Valentine's Special edition of the show, you won't be disappointed in the line up over on RTÉ One either.

Sitting down with Ryan is Hollywood star Eric Bana, along with Irish songstress Una Healy, previously of The Saturdays fame. 

Fr Brian D’Arcy will also be in attendance to chat about his time as one of Ireland's most famous priests, and Olivia O’Leary will be on set to talk about the tumultuous week in Irish politics.

Next up will be rower Gavin Hennelley who recently made history by rowing solo across the Atlantic.

Wrapping up the night is 13-year-old Megan Halvey-Ryan, who suffers from scoliosis and was recently featured on RTÉ Investigates documentary Living on the List.

So all in all, if you are a fan of talk show TV, prepare to settle in for the night.

Last night's Valentine's Day special edition of the Late Late Show was definitely memorable to say the least.

The show opened with Al Porter and Linda Martin performing a rockstar rendition, and the entire Late Late audience was on their feet on stage performing a dance routine with them.

Some of the audience members were a lot more enthusiastic than others, but the synchronised routine was just the first of many cheesy surprises.

While the show was borderline cringe, that's what happens when you try to get a bunch of Irish people involved in romance, and we kind of loved it. 

One of the best things about watching a special like this is the Twitter chat, and some of the commentary on last night's show was priceless. 

1. He could be right you know.

2. Amazing isn't the word.

3. We can't imagine the heads on them today.

4. The marraige announcement though!

5. Some were left hankering for the old days.

6. So being perpetually single is ok now?

7. The aftermath.

8. Avert your eyes Nan!

9. We've recieved worse d*** pics tbh.

10. The realest thing on Twitter right now.

Amanda Brunker caused an absolute Twitter storm last night when she received Botox on The Late Late Show.

Amanda told Ryan that she "can't understand why people think it's a controversial thing".

"I want to look like a fresher me. I don't want to look different. I don't want to look distorted. I'm 42, I'm not going to pretend to people that I don't get it done, because that's a bit fake."

Listing the procedures that she has had done in the past, Amanda continued: "I've had a boob reduction, I went smaller. It was one of the best things that I ever did. I did get my lips done once – it's sorer than the Botox. I did really like it, I didn't think I would like it.

"Life is very short, and despite what people think, I'm not that vain. I just want to reflect on the outside, a little bit of how I feel on the inside."

The show then continued onto Dr Eithne Brenner coming on stage to administer Botox to Amanda, who was sitting on a stretched chair in the middle of the studio.

However, Twitter was having none of it, and went ape when it became clear that the Late Late dropped a musician from playing to instead administer Botox.

Sorry Amanda, but clearly the whole thing is quite controversial.

Tomorrow evening's Late Late Show will be incredibly emotional: it will feature an interview with Bernard Lucas.

He is the husband of coast guard volunteer Caitríona Lucas, who tragically died during a rescue mission in September last year.

The mum-of-two was the first member of the Irish Coast Guard to lose their life during a rescue mission off the coast of county Clare in September last year, after she and two other crew members were thrown from their boat when it capsized during a search operation for a missing person.

Tomorrow night her family will be in studio to talk to Ryan Tubridy about the devastating impact of her death.

She was described by her 20-year-old son, Ben, as having a great love for "the sea and the coastguard… her work in the library, especially the projects with the children. My mother had lots of great qualities. She was caring, honest, kind and, above all, dedicated.”

Caitríona was also a mum to daughter, Emma.

The show will be celebrating the work of the Irish Coast Guard and the RNLI, and hearing from members hailing from all around the country.

There will also be stories from people who owe their lives to the tireless efforts of those organisations.

In a very moving tribute to George Michael on The Late Late Show with James Corden, the British presenter shared his memories of the much-loved singer who tragically passed away on Christmas Day last year.

Recalling his meeting with the singer back in 2011, a clearly emotional James told his American audience that the Outside singer contacted him personally regarding the presenter's desire to do a sketch with him for Comic Relief.

"We chatted for an hour and we talked about music and I felt very privileged to be able to tell him how much his music meant to me," James said.

In the clip, which has racked up 80,000 views since yesterday, James reminded the public that if it wasn't for George Michael, it's unlikely the world would have been introduced to the wonder that is Carpool Karaoke.

Responding to James' tribute, one YouTube user wrote: "There needs to be a love button so I can hit it repeatedly!"

"Thank you for your tribute James. So true about George Michaels' music reaching out…so true!" added another.

We'll let James and George take it from here.

Earlier this week, Katie Hopkins infuriated people across Ireland by revealing that she will be appearing on The Late Late Show this Friday.

News of the controversial columnist’s impending visit led to the submission of letters of complaint to RTÉ and calls for people to boycott the historic chat show on social media.

In an open letter to the national broadcaster, Alan Maguire encouraged The Late Late Show to reconsider its decision to provide a platform for the opinions of a woman who, among other things, has “described refugees as cockroaches”.

Defining Katie as a “dangerous bigot”, Mr Maguire wrote: “It is simply not in the public interest to mainstream the dangerous views of people like Ms Hopkins in order to generate cheap and pointless Twitter outrage.”

“I thought The Late Late Show was better than this,” he continued.  “I believe The Late Late Show should be better than this.”

As expected, the former Celebrity Big Brother contestant has not taken her critics’ views lightly as she has taken to Twitter to challenge those who oppose her invite.

Replying to Mr Maguire’s tweet, the 41-year-old mother of three fired back: “A dangerous bigot?  I speak my mind.  Regular taxpayers are sick of political correctness and the multicultural mafia.”

In response to similar complaints, Katie wrote: “In my experience lefty lovies are braver behind their sticky keyboards, flossing their teeth with their toenails.”

And: “Ireland.  We voted for Brexit.  America voted for Trump.  Get over it.”

It sounds like Katie is coming with all guns blazing.

For the first time in almost 30 years, The Late Late Show will be leaving Ireland to meet a special guest.

Ryan Tubridy has revealed that this week’s show will feature an exclusive Irish interview with legendary singer-songwriter Bruce Springteen.

Speaking of the decision to film in London, the 43-year-old presenter said: “For one night only, The Late Late Show is making a small detour to London for a very special guest.”

“This is very unusual, and not something we do very often, but when The Boss comes calling, you just can't say no.”

“The Irish people have a particular love of Bruce Springsteen, and him for us, and people will see that in the interview,” continued Ryan.

“We hope that people will roll with it because we felt he was someone worth chasing.”

Gay Byrne was the last Late Late host to travel abroad for an interview.  He met Jane Fonda in London in 1989.

Olympian Rob Heffernan, broadcaster Jeremy Pax and model Vogue Williams will also feature on the show.

Earlier this week, Niall Horan left us blushing when he revealed to Ellen DeGeneres that Ellie Goulding would be his dream date.

Granted the This Town singer was caught in a game of Who’d You Rather with the comedic host, but after a round of quick fire questions, Ellie turned out to be the One D star’s perfect match.

Since the Burn songstress briefly dated the 23-year-old singer back in 2014, fans quickly began to speculate that Niall may still have feelings for his famous ex.

Last night the Mullingar man did little to dispel that belief, as when faced with having to eat beef tongue if he refused a question from James Corden, Niall admitted he would choose to spend his last night on earth with Ellie Goulding instead of his other ex, Selena Gomez.

As part of The Late Late Show’s Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts segment, James posed the question: “You’ve dated both Selena Gomez and Ellie Goulding.  It’s your last night on earth.  Out of the two of them, who would you rather spend it with?”   

 

Pretty deece having hair again  @pantene

After much thought – and lots of laughter from his co-stars – Niall confessed: “Because it’s the last night on earth, Ellie is a big fan of Planet Earth by David Attenborough so I would sit and watch that with her.  For that reason, Ellie Goulding.”

And just like that, we're in tears!

When a show runs for as long as Friends did, it is inevitable viewers will begin wondering just how close the cast of actors and actresses truly were.

And while Sex and the City was plagued with rumours of cat fights and cold shoulders, most Friends fans focussed on the possible relationships which COULD have been blossoming behind the scenes.

Did Matthew Perry and Courteney Cox ever get it on in the early days? Did David Schwimmer and Jennifer ever toy with the idea of a real-life Ross and Rachel? And so on, and so forth.

Well, one woman who was more than happy to take the bull by the horns and address the idea head-on was given a platform to do so on The Late Late Show this week.

After appearing alongside James Corden in Carpool Karaoke, Lady Gaga laid one fairly cheeky question on fellow guest, Matt Le Blanc, who handled it like a PRO.

Fair play for trying, Gaga.

Hollywood hottie Alexander Skarsgard appeared on the Late Late Show last night to promote his new movie War On Everyone.

He was joined on the couch by his co-star Michael Pena and director John Michael McDonagh, but had quite the awkward moment with Ryan when he said he once “back-packed” in Ireland.

After a confused glance, Alex said: “12 hours, I’ve spent 12 hours here.

“I lived in Leeds for a while. We spent one night in a youth hostel in bunk beds with German back packers.

“We had one meal, and we went to McDonalds,” he laughed.

Michael then joked: "Well done with that research," before Alexander awkwardly added: “Great story guys…"

The lads also didn't realise the show is filmed live, and had another pretty funny moment in the clip above.

It’s been less than two weeks since we revealed national heartthrobs Cillian Murphy and Jamie Dornan would be appearing on The Late Late Show.

And while we totally understand that we can’t be treated to such big names every single week, is a sheep really the next best thing to Jamie and Cillian?

Along with British adventurer Bear Grylls, Wedding Crashers star Jane Seymour and Irish musician BP Fallon, a sheep will appear in RTÉ studios this Friday night.

OK so Tubs isn’t exactly going to conduct an interview with the woolly creature, but – according to rte.ie – world record sheep shearer Ivan Scott will be using the animal to demonstrate his impressive skillset live in studio.

With a line-up like that you can’t say The Late Late is any ordinary chat show.

After James Corden stripped off with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and engaged in a little lawn wrestling, most of us assumed Carpool Karaoke had reached its pinnacle.

And then the First Lady of the United State of America stepped up the plate.

Riding shotgun with James in the latest instalment of The Late Late Show's uber-popular musical segment, Michelle Obama confirmed what most of us had already assumed – she is quite literally the soundest woman on the planet.

Maybe it was due to her surprisingly slick taste in music or the fact she has the Single Ladies dance nailed, but this sneak peek at Michelle Obama's Carpool Karaoke has us gnawing at our knuckles for more.

Check this out!
