TUBRIDY VS NORTON: The line-ups for The Late Late Show and Graham Norton are here

Carl Kinsella

With the stretch in the evening growing ever more grand…

Messrs Tubridy and Norton will have to work that little bit harder to keep people in front of their televisions on Friday evenings.

These are the line-ups that the two lads have put together this evening for your viewing pleasure (or lack thereof). Starting with Tubridy:

The Late Late Show

Maureen Allman

Maureen Allman is a brave woman who is currently facing terminal pancreatic cancer. She’ll be telling the audience about how she has been battling the illness, and how she has lived her life to the full in the face of adversity.

Charlie Bird

Charlie Bird is spending the eve of his wedding in a particularly unusual way… On the couch opposite Ryan Tubridy. Let’s hope he has better plans for the night of the wedding itself.

First Dates Ireland guests

Some of our favourite guests of the wildly popular First Dates Ireland will also join Ryan to tell them about how their love lives have gone since featuring on the RTÉ show.

Kilkenny Presentation School Choir

Music will be provided by the phenomenal Kilkenny Presentation School Choir who have made a name for themselves on Britain’s Got Talent, joined by their choirmaster Veronica McCarron.

The Graham Norton Show

Samuel L. Jackson

And in the Norton corner… Let’s be honest, there aren’t too many guests Tubs could conceivably invite that would trump Samuel L. Jackson. He’s proven himself to be a top guests in the past and we’re sure he’ll be great craic tonight.

Tom Hiddleston

Tom Hiddlestone, another Norton favourite, is best known for playing Marvel bad guy Loki. Tonight he’ll be talking to Graham about his part in The Night Manager, as well as rumours that he’ll be the next James Bond.

John Malkovich

As if the film wasn’t enough, Hollywood legend John Malkovich will be on the couch to fill us in even further about what it’s like Being John Malkovich.

Chvrches

And if all of that isn’t enough to change the channel over to BBC, music will be performed by Scottish synthpop band Chvrches.

Which will you watch?
