The Late Late Show turns 60 this year - and will celebrate the landmark birthday with a special end-of-season show next week.
The national institution is one of the world’s longest-running chat shows, making its screen debut as a late-night summer filler back in 1962 with legendary host Gay Byrne.
It took off, with a host of national and international stars appearing down the years - with some controversial moments going out live across the country’s TV screens.
