As they prepare for the launch of the eagerly awaited new drama Conversations with Friends, Oscar-nominated director Lenny Abrahamson and the show’s Cork-born star Alison Oliver will join Ryan to chat about bringing Sally Rooney’s novel to life on the small screen.
Joining us on the show is a special musical treat from three men who share the same birthday John Sheahan, Paul Brady & Mundy will be playing some of their biggest hits & sharing some stories along the way.
Westlife’s Mark Feehily will join Ryan this Friday to talk about how fatherhood has changed his life, why doing The Masked Singer had a profound effect on him, and his excitement at getting back on stage with Westlife this summer. He’ll also be performing two special songs.
Plus, we will have a very special performance from composer Ruth Anne Cunningham and some of The Late Late Toy Showkids including Saoirse Ruane as they get ready to make a very special announcement that has been in the works for quite some time.
The Late Late Show on RTÉ One tomorrow at 9:35pm.

More LL toyshow stuff! The gift that keeps on giving!
My hair won’t wash itself, so I’ll have to miss this poo once more..
I’m a fan of Paul Brady and went to see him in Waterford a few weeks ago. Quite disappointed. One man show. Hitting bum notes all evening. Hammering the guitar. Hollering Yeah! every few minutes, and he played a Roland RD700 doing a glissando up the keyboard that didn’t work at all.
I’ll still be a fan as he’s has been a quality singer/songwriter, but will never go to see his one man effort again.
Interesting thanks Giggidy
When I lived in Dublin he used to come into a music shop I was often in and do much the same as you described there testing out new guitars! He’s a great guitar player though when you see him up close. His shows with Andy Irvine a few years ago where they did their classic album were outstanding
Yes, his guitar playing was always excellent. Maybe it’s down to not playing to live audiences over the past couple of years. I’d go see him again if he brings a band with him, but so disappointed in his solo performance this time.
What no Imelda May? No Brian Dowling and hubby and child?
(Mad scamble for Ukrainian kids for the show)
Brooke will be on instead I’d say
Home with her arse between her legs – well you know what I mean
I believe that’s the best place for it.
