The Late Late Show made a comeback on our TV screens on Friday night with some big names as guests. Graham Norton, a TV presenter and author, talked about his inspiration for his bestselling novel, Frankie. He also shared about the one guest he missed out on early in his career, which was Daniel O’Donnell. Graham shared a funny story about how Daniel O’Donnell agreed to come on his show but then got too busy to make it. Viewers ended up seeing a French lady named Madame Pee Pee instead, which caused some complaints.
In his first Irish television interview, actor Paul Mescal discussed his role in the blockbuster Gladiator II, working with director Ridley Scott, and his friendship with Saoirse Ronan. U2 bassist Adam Clayton also appeared on the show to talk about his documentary on the Irish showband scene, the Las Vegas Sphere, and some exciting news about unreleased U2 tracks. Comedian Brendan O’Carroll talked about the return of Mrs. Brown’s Boys and his upcoming live show, The Musical for Moore Street. Altan, an Irish folk music band, provided lively music for the night with their set of reels.
Overall, the show was filled with entertaining stories and exciting news from the guests. It was a night full of laughter, music, and interesting conversations. The Late Late Show continues to be a popular choice for viewers looking for a mix of entertainment and celebrity interviews.
