Ryan Tubridy says every minute of every day in November is “jammed” with Toy Show preparations.
The Late Late Show host is gearing up for the biggest night of the TV calendar, which will take place on November 25. Speaking on his RTE Radio One show yesterday morning, he said: “Today is the 1st of November so if you are a friend or an associate of mine and you need me, I’ll see you in and around the 27th of November. I’m gone.
"Every minute of every hour of every day every hour and every day is jammed. We were looking at the diary today and how we laughed.

“Our heads were thrown back with laughter like the end of an old Tarzan cartoon. We had our hands on our hips and our heads were thrown back as we laughed, knowing that any gap in the diary has been filled.”
The Dubliner, 49, added: “Even when I wasn’t here for a few days last week it was being filled by people with access to the diary.
“When I say the diary, it is literally a hard copy thing on the desk and people just fill it in, and say, ‘I think we will just tell him to do this’. I am Pinocchio to their Geppetto and that is all it is. And I’m looking forward to it.
“And when we finish here today we have interviews to do for Toy Show related activities and dances to learn and singing to learn, and toys to look at. I’m just telling you that is where it is.”
- The Late Late Toy Show will take place on Friday, November 25, on RTE One.
