    The first full toy show was in 1975?? WOW!! I would love to see some of the old shows! Rte should release a DVD of the best bits of the Toy Shows through out the years!

    The 39-year-old believes the annual special is needed more than ever this year.

    "The country is grim, unhappy and sad and we are the rainbow," he said.

    "That suits me because I enjoy being that rainbow, that splash of colour."

    The theme of this year's show is loosely based on Shrek and opening act will include a hit song from the movie.

    The Toy Show will also feature a special toy section to cater for children living in apartments. Aston and Kayleigh, who featured in the RTÉ documentary Apartment Kids, will tell viewers all about toys that work in small spaces.

    Making of the 2012 Late Late Toy Show Promo

    As per usual there are plenty of rumours doing the rounds as to who will be performing on the night. RTÉ Ten has confirmation that a certain boyband will be performing - all will be revealed in our interview with Ryan Tubridy which will be uploaded shortly.

    All the toys featured on the show will be donated to charity.

    Great! That kid Aston was brilliant - was Kayleigh the little girl who was showing off her baton twirling in the show (think she has a medical condition). She was a dote as well. They should be good on the toy show!

    It's a personalised DLB reg for Tubs - regulars here will understand ;)

    For anyone new to the term DLB, here is the answer:

    DLB stands for "Dainty Little Bugger" - The actor, Rhys Ifans (of Notting Hill fame) referred to Tubridy a DLB on the Late Late Show of October 1st 2010.

    OK, new drinking game.

    Every time the question "What's a DLB is asked?" you knock back a shot.

    Except when Ryan mentions that "Mummy and Daddy might not be able to get this as a gift for you boys and girls because the country is currently in the middle of a big bad recession" :D

    No, it has to be Tubs...

    DLB = Dainty Little Bugger..
    62 = The year before JFK and The Beatles visited Ireland..
    RE = REgal, cos Tubridy is related to the Queen..

    I LOVE the Toy Show!!

    I actually really like Ryan presenting the Toy Show :o I just like how he interacts with the kids!

    Must pop down to the shop for some supplies- eating crap is perfectly acceptable on Toy Show night!

    I think John Joe has been the saviour of the Toy Show. The year after his appearance, viewing figures reached an all time high, as people tuned in looking for the "new John Joe".

    My favouite kid from last year was Glenn, the kid in the wheelchair wearing the Christmas jumper knitted by his granny. Little pet :)

    I still haven't made up my mind yet, whether to watch Freddie Flintoff getting pummelled in the boxing ring, or DLB getting pummelled by a five year old
