Late Late Show host Ryan Tubridy has spoken out against critics of the Eurosong contest who are pushing for the Eurovision qualifier to be moved from the weekly chat show to a stand-alone programme.
Last Friday’s TV special saw six acts battle it out for the chance to represent Ireland at the Eurovision Song Contest before a combination of votes from the public, an international jury and a national jury decided that Wild Youth would be heading to Liverpool in May.
However, fans of the Eurovision have criticised the Eurosong special that aired in place of the usual Late Late Show on Friday, with many calling for Eurosong to have a separate show from the Late Late Show next year.
