I entered a competition today to win some tickets for the show, how I'd love to by in the audience. Who remembers John Joe from last year? Lil legend. I thought Tubridy did a good job too last year.

Where did you find the competition to win tickets? Do you know if it's still running? I'd kill to win some

OK Pretty Pistol set up a facebook page for this to happen it will gain momentum and we can make it work!!!:D

I don't think Ryan is much of a fan of people from the internet. I doubt he'd bow down and wear a jumper even if a lot of people joined an FB page. Killjoy.

Hated Ryan last year myself. Adults thought he was very entertaining, but I know my little brother and sister didn't like him much at all. I know they enjoyed Pat a lot more.

He took the piss out of the kids every chance he could in a manner that would go over the kids heads, sure it was entertaining for the adults but the kids completely didn't get it and didn't find him fun.

That's pretty much it. Kids aren't as thick as some people think though, I know the two at home 8&9 at the time, weren't impressed with the few piss-takes they did catch.

Sure we'll see how he gets on this year anyway.

oops! yes I do mean the 26th, thanks!:o

Having Internet connection probs atm, but I fixed the date in the title for you.:)

I think regardless of who is in the chair of The Late Late, Gaybo should be brought back for every Toy Show, imo he handled it much better than Kenny or Ryan.

I have to agree any of the segments with the kids felt very rushed and unsincere last year, which is a shame as some of the conversations with the kids are hilarous if they are given a chance to shine.

does nobody else think its too early. almost a month before christmas,way too early to have decorations up and sit in for a christmassy night

my kids didnt like it last year at all not enough toys and too much talking for their likings.

As a previous poster pointed it, its to promote toys and give parents a chance to get the toys and pay for them, so in that sense it makes sense being on so early, I don't ever remember it being later than the first friday in December so it isnt that early really.

Do what we do for the Toy Show, put up your tree and some big things for the toy show and then over the coming weeks start slowly putting up the rest bit by bit, that way you don't get sick at looking at the same thing for over a month.

Apparantly he's agreed to wear a festive jumper, honestly I couldn't give a fiddlers if he wears one or not I don't believe it impacts the toy show at all, the toy show should really be about the kids and the toys of course! :P

Woop woop two days to go, can't wait! It's a Christmas tradition. ^.^

Was he the lad playing with all the Star Wars toys?

Anyone know what happened to the supposed repeat for today? I skyplussed it only to end up with Jessica Fletcher and the Apprentice.

Was shown on RTE2 after the Rugby.

No, he was the lad that came in on the pedal racer and had the remote control cars.

They really messed up today as the EPG still showed it on RTE1, at least they could have updated the EPG so that the new time and channel was reflected. It was the same on the terrestrial digital EPG - wrong time and channels. Lots of messed up recordings today.
