Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli leads a very musical lineup for this week's Late Late Show.
The world-renown star will share stories about meeting the Queen, family life, his faith, the magic of Christmas - and the multigenerational talent of the Bocelli family. He will be accompanied by two of his musical children, Matteo and Virginia, and the Bocellis will perform two songs from their new album A Family Christmas.
The music-filled show will also feature Imelda May and Glen Hansard talking about the famous busk on Grafton Street for the Simon Community, and how they are bringing a flavour of it to a wider audience on Christmas in Ireland with Imelda May and Friends on Sky Arts. Glen will also talk about how fatherhood has changed him, and Imelda will chat about acting, touring, and coming home for Christmas.
The talented duo will also perform two songs for us, including their take on the classic Fairytale of New York. Fans of the musical Once will see Glen reunite with Marketa Irglova as they both perform their Academy Award winning song, Falling Slowly, 15 years after its release.
This jam-packed programme will also see comedian Sean Burke bringing viewers a very special Late Late Show Christmas Carol, while TikTok sensation and new Blue Peter presenter Joel M will join Ryan and the audience for a madcap mixture of magic and illusion.
