WATCH: Magical trailer for Late Late Toy Show
The Late Late Toy Show airs on Friday, November 27 at 9.35pm.
2020 has been a year like no other, but the team at The Late Late Toy Show have been working tirelessly against the odds to ensure that this year's show will be delivered, and that Christmas can officially begin!
Today marks just two weeks until Ireland's most anticipated television show of the year
“It has been a very strange year, and that's why this Christmas is so important. It's also why this year's Late Late Toy Show is possibly the most important of all time,” says host Ryan Tubridy. “We're going to be singing, we're going to be dancing, we're going to be playing with toys, and we're going to be having lots and lots and lots and lots of fun. We need you to gather together and join us, and let's make Christmas, Christmas!”
The Late Late Toy Show trailer, made by RTÉ Creative in association with Banjoman Films, premiered on television tonight, Friday, November 13, during the Six One News bulletin on RTÉ One.
It tells the story of a young girl called Eva (Hannah Galvin) who, like everyone, is stuck at home.
Eva is missing her friends, friends she usually gets into her pjs with to watch the show.
Her concerned brother Rob (Darragh Shannon), goes above and beyond on the family farm to ensure Eva and her friends can be together to experience the magic of The Late Late Toy Show, just like every other year.
Last year, Irish people from over 100 countries tuned in to watch including from Estonia, Kuwait, and Honduras.
This year, RTÉ Player and the RTÉ News channel will simultaneously broadcast live in Irish Sign Language (ISL)with ISL interpreters Amanda Coogan and Aisling Dragoi signing the live show from RTÉ Studio 6.
The Late Late Toy Show airs on Friday, November 27 at 9.35pm.
