For many families, tonight officially marks the beginning of the Christmas season as the Late Late Toy Show returns to our screens.
While technology, toys and even the show's presenters have changed in all the time it has been running, the magic of the annual show remains the same. And as something that has been a part of multiple generations' childhoods, the show brings out a child-like joy in all ages.
All around Ireland tonight, kids will stay up way past their bedtimes to snuggle up and watch the biggest TV event of the year. A night of song, dance, surprises and, most importantly, toys, we can't wait to see what Ryan Tubridy and all of the kids have in store for us this time.
