Cupid’s Arrow Poised to Strike as Late Late Show Valentine’s Special launches Search for Singles

The Late Late Show has launched the search for a brand new set of singletons to take part in this year’s Valentine’s Special.

Cupid’s arrow is poised and ready to strike as The Late Late Show invites another 200 eager singletons to take part this year. The show is looking for people who are single, not camera shy, up for a laugh and genuinely looking for someone special in their life.

Late Late host Ryan Tubridy said: “What better way to find the person you are going to spend the rest of your life with, than live in front of the nation! Last year was great craic – some might even say it was exotic – and plans are already afoot to make this Valentine’s Special another brilliant night for everyone in the audience and watching at home.”

This year’s Late Late Show Valentine’s Special airs on Friday, February 10th.
Last year’s show, featuring Pippa O’Connor, Philly McMahon and a raucous audience including the unforgettable Deano, was a huge hit with viewers attracting an average* audience of 612,000.

To maximise the chances of a love-match, all audience members must definitely be on the market. Eligible guys and girls who want to take part in one of the liveliest nights on Irish television can apply for tickets on the programme’s website:  http://www.rte.ie/tv/latelate/tickets.html

To secure tickets, applicants must fill out the form, letting The Late Late Show know a little about their single life, why they are looking for love and what the dating scene is like in Ireland.
