The Late Late Show Is Back, But Is It Still Worth Watching?

The Late Late Show returns tonight for a brand new season, and the line-up has been revealed. Maura Higgins and Greg O'Shea from Love Island are due to appear alongside fellow contestant Amber Gill, but Amber's presence has been thrown into doubt amid rumours that she and Greg have split up. There will also be performances from Sinead O'Connor and Lewis Capaldi, and other guests will include comedian Aisling Bea and Keith Barry, who is promoting his new RTÉ series. But has The Late Late Show become too predictable now that its list of guests is revealed in advance? Is it as relevant today as it was when Gay Byrne was at the helm? Jennifer Gannon and Joe O'Shea gave their take in our TV slot, and also discussed 20 years of Loose Women. Listen to the interview in full by pressing the play button on this page.
