Oscar contender Ruth Negga, chatshow legend Michael Parkinson, singer Aled Jones and comedian Des Bishop join Ryan Tubridy on Late Late Show this Friday
A homegrown Oscar contender, the king of chatshows and a singer who is ‘Walking in the Air’ will join Ryan Tubridy on The Late Late Show this Friday.
With Oscar buzz building and her cover of US Vogue landing on newsstands, Limerick actress Ruth Negga will join Ryan on the Late Late couch to chat about going from humble beginnings on RTÉ’s Love is the Drug more than a decade ago to starring in one of the most talked about movies of the year, ‘Loving’.
Chatshow king Michael Parkinson will be dropping by to talk about his extraordinary career interviewing some of the most famous people in the world and his friendship with the late, great Muhammad Ali.
Des Bishop will be telling viewers about casting a satirical eye over Irish current affairs in his new RTÉ2 show and he’ll be addressing those rumours that he may be donning his Cuban heels for a dancing challenge in the new year.
When veteran broadcaster Charlie Bird decided to get a dog, he got more than he bargained for. He’ll be sharing his cautionary tale.
More than 30 years after he became a key part of Christmas with the release of ‘Walking in the Air’, Aled Jones is back with a unique duet with his younger self and he’ll be chatting to Ryan about his life since he was catapulted to fame.
We’ll be catching up with Eurovision-winning songwriter and Nighthawks broadcaster Shay Healy and he’ll perform a song.

With more than 4,000 visitors every week, the Marian Shrine in Knock goes from strength to strength. With a new documentary ‘Strange Occurrences in a Small Irish Village’ set to hit TV screens, we’ll be looking at the Knock phenomenon with descendants of the original visionaries and volunteers who work at the Shrine.
All that and music from The Hothouse Flowers.
Only on The Late Late Show, Friday, December 9th at 9.35pm on RTÉ One.
