Late Late Toy Show

by

The Late Late Toy Show was an absolute cracker this year, with over 1.4 million people tuning in to watch Ryan Tubridy demonstrate the year's most popular toys with some help from his little pals.

Tickets to the event are highly coveted, and international viewers in 102 countries outside of Ireland streamed the show.

This year saw Ryan don a multitude of jumper and an Baloo the bear suit that was oddly bountiful in the booty for the opening sequence. 

Some highlights had to include Edie Rose 's penchant for pizza making and Beibhinn's heart warming diabetes doll.

There were also architectural endeavours, presidential letters from Áras an Uachtaráin and a medley of country tunes that wouldn't have been out of place at a Sunday session in any country.

The new behind the scenes video shows some sneak peeks of the performers warm ups, some backstage jitters, and, naturally, lots of beyond adorable kids.

The spine chilling rehearsal for the award meriting rendition of "Fix you" (who needs tickets for Croke Park) is featured, as well as plenty of bloopers.

However we never got an excuse for that specimen of a Christmas shirt, Ryan.

It's long been the highlight of the broadcasting calendar: The Late Late Toy Show.

And while in previous times Irish diasporas have had to largely do without, getting the show online has in more recent years allowed those in the further flung locations around the globe to partake live in the spectacle. 

Indeed, and with more 1.5million viewers expected to watch the show this Friday, Montrose today confirmed that the Toy Show will be available to watch worldwide for free, live and on-demand on the RTÉ Player.

Hurrah!

Host Ryan Tubridy said in response: "One of the great things about The Late Late Toy Show is that it's the one night when we can collectively forget all the doom and gloom in what has been a very weird year.

"The fact that it is available to watch free across the world means that Irish emigrants get a chance to connect with their home in a way that is absolutely unique to us as a people. Nobody else would understand what this bonkers show is about!" 

To get us all in the mood, RTÉ Player today launched the ultimate Late Late Toy Show collection, celebrating the show's TV gold moments through the years. You can watch it here.

The Late Late Toy Show airs on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player this Friday from 9:35pm.

As the debate continues about whether it’s too early to put up the Christmas tree or if it’s just too soon to be listening to festive music, there is one thing that all Irish people, at home and abroad, can agree on; it’s never too early for The Late Late Toy Show.

Yes, whether you are generation Gay, Pat or Ryan, for one Friday night a year we all set up camp in front of our tellies and watch the magic happen.

And while dreams do indeed come true on that glorious night, there is one dream that many of us have yet to see granted and that’s to be one of the lucky few sat in the audience enjoying the show up close.

Well, one woman is taking it into her own hands this year and making her plea through a series of hilarious videos with the hopes of getting herself that golden ticket.

Veronica Barry has been taking her case straight to Mr Ryan Tubridy himself and we have to admit, it’s pretty convincing.

From sledding her way to RTE studios to doing a very special Toy Show Ice Bucket Challenge, Veronica is fighting for her place at this year’s big event.

The Dublin-native even roped in the help of Santa Claus himself in a bid to get her hands on two tickets.

The Late Late Toy Show is one of the nation's most beloved shows on TV.

We went from watching it as kids and picking out what we want from Santa, to watching it now with our mates and having a laugh over Tubber's jumpers.

And that time of year is rolling around pretty soon folks, so you might want to consider bagging a few tickets for the festive show.

Applications are open right now on the RTÉ website and all you have to is fill in a form and then wait to see if you got picked.

Good luck!

In one of the more unbelievable news stories of the day, a porn site has cited the Late Late Toy Show as causing a pretty drastic disruption to their usual site traffic during it's broadcast on November 27. 

In fact, the Late Late Toy Show was named the as the televised programme that drew the largest numbers away from the site in 2015, beating out the Oscars, political debates and the finale of the Voice US. 

No really. 

In reports released today, Pornhub has revealed the top media events that affected their usual traffic in 2015 and the Toy Show topped the list by a country mile. 

Yep, it turns out that the majority of Irish people decided to tune in to a show featuring Christmas jumpers, kid critics and a LOT of toys rather than watch some dirty videos online.

Fair enough, we say.

The Toy Show, which catered to a whopping 1.36 million viewers this year, drew a whopping 16% of Pornhub's typical audience numbers away from the site during it's three hour run. 

We don't really know what this says about Irish people except for that we sure do LOVE the Toy Show.

Gathered in our jammies, with a kilo of Cadbury Roses within arm's reach, we waited with bated breath for this year's Late Late Toy Show.

Would Ed Sheeran surprise someone again? Would we finally find our new John Joe? Maybe Bono and the lads would head over after their gig?

Well, not quite.

Last night's Toy Show was a very Irish spectacular indeed, with Evelyn Cusack as a "celebrity guest" and a "small farmer" named Fionn schooling us in the wonders of John Deere and how to rap.

As for Ryan, he definitely seemed to be high on life last night, especially for the opening number where he danced to Be Our Guest in a very fetching orange suit.

As always, Twitter was awash with #LateLateToyShow tweeting action – indeed, the hashtag was trending worldwide at various stages throughout the night.

Here are a few of our fave lines…

Charlie Brunton from Cavan is a HUGE Late Late Toy Show fan, so much so, he watches old Toy Show footage on YouTube throughout the whole year. 

And it was during one of his recent Toy Show binges that the nine-year-old decided he wanted a job on the RTE show. 

His mother, Breege said: "He looked at the muscles on his arms and decided they were definitely ready for that job! When I was rushing out to work one morning he produced a sealed envelope and asked me to write Ryan Tubridy’s address.

"I hastily spelled Donnybrook, Dublin 4 for him and posted it. Every so often he would ask ‘did Ryan Tubridy ring me?’"

His mother didn't expect to get a reply but RTE took one look at Charlie's application and decided that he was exactly the right man for the job and he'll be 'working' behind-the-scenes at the Toy Show this Friday. 

Charlie's mam admitted that he was "speechless" when he heard the good news. 

"After getting the call I finished work early to pick him up from school to tell him the big news. He was speechless driving home.

"Then the phone calls and messages started and it hasn’t stopped since. He still doesn’t believe he will be on it. He has become a local celebrity. Everyone in our rural parish knows."

The family sit down to watch the Toy Show every year and Charlie's teenage brother are planning a party on the night to celebrate his first day on the job. Well done, Charlie!

This yuletide season, two (or should that be three?) of our favourite festive stables are FINALLY joining forces: yes, step forward The Late Late Toyshow AND the Christmas jumper – as released by Penneys, no less.

Ho, ho, ho!

Toyshow jumpers: women's [left] and men's [right], both €20

 

After all, little could get us in the mood for seasonal festivities more than a brightly-coloured geansaí, sourced from our favourite affordable store, along with the airing of a certain live television classic.

Available in chic grey shade and classic navy shades and featuring an adorable Christmasy owl surround by snow, the €20 tops also feature The Late Late Toyshow logo.

Kids jumpers, €15

 

Along with a stash of fabulously comfy loungewear [priced from €14], and cute kids' items [priced from €10], the attire hits Penneys nationwide this month… all in time for the Ryan Tubridy spectacle, which this year airs on RTE on November 27.

Girls and boys PJs, €10

 

Better still, with €2 from every purchase going to the Temple Street Foundation, there is really no excuse (we didn't need one, mind) not to get your hands on these festive treats.

Women's lounge set, €14
Men's longe top and bottoms, €15 for the set

 

To celebrate the launch of the collection, home-grown boyband Hometown earlier visited the children’s hospital to spread some music and Christmas cheer.

Speaking about the collaboration, CEO of The Temple Street Foundation, Denise Fitzgerald, confirmed: “The Toyshow is a beloved national institution and many of our little patients will be watching from their hospital beds on November 27.”
