It’s the show we all eagerly anticipate every year, and now that the Late Late Toy Show is done and dusted for another year – we’ve picked our best moments.
From milking a fake cow live on stage, to Ryan Tubridy’s awkward slip of the tongue, here’s our top 10 moments:
1 When Ryan milked a fake cow on stage
Just when we thought we’d seen it all, Tubs surprised us all with this segment.

Somehow we think the cows of Ireland will be happy that it’s seven year old Kyle Carty from Collinstown, Co Westmeath who may grow up to be a farmer and not Ryan! #LateLateToyShow pic.twitter.com/ClwYFGBN6z

2. When Ryan dragged a kid across the floor
This moment will be forever be used for GIFs.

4. When Tubs dressed up as a crab
He’s dressed up as many characters over the years, but this was just perfection.
5. When Tubs had a bit of a slip up
He told the audience immediately that he didn’t mean to say it, but when asking one of the child testers about their toys, he said who are these “guys, girls, GAYS”.
We feel he’ll regret that sentence…

6. When Ryan highlighted the homeless problem in Ireland
We knew during the week that some children affected by homelessness would be on the show, we’re sure there wasn’t a dry eye in the house during this segment.
Ryan gave a free holiday to Legoland in Florida to this girl and her family, who are all affected by homelessness.
7. When Ryan reunited a family with their dad
Just when we thought we couldn’t cry anymore, Ryan had us all in tears once again when he reuinted this family.
Admitting to the audience that this was his “favourite surprise”, Ryan hid a father-of-two Graham Burke, who works for the armed-forces in Mali, in a huge Christmas present.
Take a look at the emotional moment, that even had Ryan in tears:
