The Late Late Show returns this Friday night with some fresh and familiar faces joining host Patrick Kielty in studio. 

Comedian, actress and talk show host Rosie O'Donnell will sit down with Kielty on Friday night for her first exclusive Irish TV interview since moving to Ireland. The American celebrity's big move to Ireland came up during the Taoiseach's recent visit to the White House and she will be chatting to Kielty about Trump's reaction to this.

She will also speak about next month's Same Chance Walk for Autism with AsIAm which she will be taking part in.

Then one of Ireland's most beloved country music stars Daniel O'Donnell will join Kielty in the studio to talk about his upcoming tour around the country this year. The music legend will also chat about trips with his family, touring and the lengths he has gone to for his fans throughout his 40 year career.
