The line-up for the Late Late’s last show of the season has been revealed, and it’s particularly special.
Tonight, host Ryan Tubridy will pay tribute to HPV vaccine campaigner Laura Brennan, who passed away back in March.
The Clare woman made a huge impact when she appeared on the show in April last year to tell her story of being diagnosed with terminal cervical cancer, and to raise awareness of the HPV vaccine.
On Friday night, Laura’s family – mum Bernie, dad Larry and brothers Colin, Fergal and Kevin – will join Ryan to talk about their loss and the impact that Laura had on those who loved her and on the country.
Brothers Patrick and John Collison will also be on the show to chat about their unbelievable success, looking back on how they built their online software payments firm Stripe, which is now valued at $22 billion.
The Healy-Rae clan will also join Ryan tonight, after last week’s local elections – which saw three family members secure seats on the Kerry County Council.
Michael Healy-Rae, Danny Healy-Rae, Johnny Healy-Rae, Maura Healy-Rae and Jackie Healy-Rae Jr will be in studio to discuss the modern political dynasty started by Jackie Healy-Rae, and why the family political machine is so successful.
Oliver Callan will also appear on the show, to give his take on the week in politics, and his recent dinner date with members of the Royal family.
Catch the final Late Late Show of the season tonight at 9.35pm on RTÉ One.
