It’s been a while now since we’ve had The Late Late Show grace our screens.

The season finale of the show’s 61st season (yes, really!) aired back in May, and since then we’ve been only dying for some more Paddy Kielty on our screens.

And now it appears as though we won’t have much longer to wait.

The show’s eagerly awaited return will take place on September 13, and it’s safe to say we’re delighted.

Wrapping up last season, Patrick – who took over the role from Ryan Tubridy last year – said: “When I first walked out here last September, I said that it was the honour of a lifetime to do this job.

“After nine months of sitting in this chair, I know now it is the joy of a lifetime and that is because everyone who works on this show and mostly because of all of you watching at home.

“The way you have welcomed me into your Friday nights has absolutely meant the world to me, so thank you for tuning in and being so kind. Have a great summer, I will see you in the autumn.”

Patrick was particularly praised for his hosting during the Toy Show last Christmas, where he presented a stellar programme with kids from all over the country.

This date reveal comes after news that RTÉ spent more than €340,000 in guest fees in one year, with the Late Late accounting for 40% of that.
