Awks! People had A LOT to say about last night’s Late Late Show

Last night's Valentine's Day special edition of the Late Late Show was definitely memorable to say the least.

The show opened with Al Porter and Linda Martin performing a rockstar rendition, and the entire Late Late audience was on their feet on stage performing a dance routine with them.

Some of the audience members were a lot more enthusiastic than others, but the synchronised routine was just the first of many cheesy surprises.

While the show was borderline cringe, that's what happens when you try to get a bunch of Irish people involved in romance, and we kind of loved it.

One of the best things about watching a special like this is the Twitter chat, and some of the commentary on last night's show was priceless.

2. Amazing isn't the word.

So many highlights from tonight's #LateLateShow. But the woman from Mayo winning a trip to Mayo was perfection.
