The Late Late Show S62E01 - Rory McIlroy, Kabin Crew, Lisdoonvarna Crew, Olympians and Paralympians, John Bishop, John Sheahan and Phil Coulter

Here is your host, Patrick Kielty!

It's been a long hot summer, and The Late Late Show is back and ready to go!

As he comes home to play at the Irish Open, four-time major winner Rory McIlroy will join Patrick for a chat along the Royal County Down fairway covering all things golf and the very special project he is supporting across Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.  

Think we can stop what they do? We doubt it! And we don't want to. Fresh from appearances at some of this year's biggest festivals, young rappers Kabin Crew and Lisdoonvarna Crew are in studio to perform and chat about their viral hit 'The Spark', which gained widespread attention from celebrities the world over and amassed a whopping billion views on social over the summer.

While Team Ireland's time in Paris has come to an end following incredible performances by all our athletes, Olympians and Paralympians will come together for the very first time this Friday night on The Late Late Show. Patrick will welcome medallists home from the summer games!

Comedian John Bishop will be talking all about his eventful summer, from touring Ireland on a motorbike to getting lost in translation in the United States and… donkeys!

Folk music royalty John Sheahan and Phil Coulter join The Late Late Show to exclusively unveil John's new stage show 'The Dubliners Encore'. The new group will perform a rousing medley of The Dubliners hits.

And that's not all, Patrick has something he is really looking forward to telling you about, don't miss it!
