First look at Late Late Toy Show promo as RTE release sneak peek clip

RTE have released a first look of the Late Late Toy Show promo video with host Ryan Tubridy just weeks before the show is set to air.

The biggest night on Irish television is just weeks away with millions around the country getting ready to tune in to the RTÉ spectacular at the end of the month.

The clip titled 'Let's all watch it together' sees kids around the country discussing who they'll be watching the show with this season.

It comes after Tubridy has been dropping his own teasers for the highly anticipated event.

"Do you know how weird my life is?" he asked his Instagram followers last week as he was walking down a flight of stairs in the RTE studios, which had at the bottom an Olaf head and body.

Peering out from behind the glass, Ryan noted that he was stuck in some "weird Olaf prison", with the host having worn the costume back in 2019's edition of the Toy Show.

He went on to explain how he had to do some Toy Show prep - before dropping a teaser of a video of a giant screen somewhere in a studio which had been enhanced with a Christmas scene.

Grinning from ear to ear, Ryan noted: "So, this all got a little weird. I'll explain all another day!"

The presenter also opened up about how much of his life the Toy Show takes over between preparation and then the actual festivities themselves.

Speaking on his RTE Radio One show earlier this month, 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 December…I’m gone.

“I have.. 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, 48, who is just back to work on the airwaves after a week off last week went on: “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,” he added laughing.

The Late Late Toy Show will air Friday 25th November, 9:35 pm on RTÉ One & RTÉ Player #LateLateToyShow
