The countdown for Ryan Tubridy's final Late Late Show is on and he has given viewers a glimpse of what they can expect next week.
Last night's penultimate episode featured returning favourites Micheal Martin, Vogue Williams, Joanne McNally, and Noel Gallagher. At the end of the show, Tubridy told the audience they can expect a "night of celebration" when they tune in next Friday.
"I'll be back here next week for my last ever Late Late Show. I'm looking forward to a night of celebration and fun with great people and the session to end all sessions," he said. "We're also going to have a Toy Show reunion, some of the youngsters, to see how tall they are now. It's going to be lovely."

"So you're all invited to join the party. Won't you come along for one more for the road? Thanks for watching and take care. We're nearly there. Goodnight."
Earlier today, Patrick Kielty was announced as Ryan Tubridy's replacement.
The Co Down comedian will be the fourth presenter of the iconic show for its 61st season next September. A delighted Patrick said: "I’m absolutely thrilled to be the next host of The Late Late Show. To follow in the footsteps of Gay, Pat and Ryan as the next custodian is a real honour and I can’t thank RTE enough for giving me the chance to be a part of the next chapter of such an iconic show.
"I’m also genuinely humbled to become part of Friday nights for so many Irish people, at home and around the world. I can’t wait to get started on one of the greatest jobs in television."
