Sheamie Garrihy has become the breakout star of this year’s Late Late Toy Show, as viewers have hailed him a “national treasure”.
The seven-year-old from Kilfenora in Co. Clare won the hearts of the nation as viewers branded him an “aul lad trapped in a child’s body” during tonight’s show.
Speaking to host Patrick Kielty, Sheamie revealed they shared something in common, and said: “It’s both our first Toy Show, Patrick.”

Patrick then replied: “You’re having a better one than me!”
Sheamie then told viewers that he had brought some of his granny’s lego with him, which he’s usually not allowed play with, but she allowed him to bring it to the “big shmoke”.
It’s safe to say viewers absolutely loved Sheamie on the show, and immediately inducted him into the Toy Show ‘Hall of Fame’:
