Who else can't wait for tomorrow night?

It's been revealed that the theme for this year's Late Late Toy Show will be all things Roald Dahl.

Ryan Tubridy will be dressed as Fantastic Mr Fox for the show opener with characters from the book popping up throughout the show.

“This was the Toy Show that nearly didn’t happen,” he told the Irish Independent. “And only for grit, determination, dilligence and an absolute need to keep the show on the road from the Irish children at home and abroad, we wouldn’t be here today. We'd be running a movie (instead).

“But we weren’t going anywhere; we weren’t having any of it. We just had to keep going, we had a different theme picked and then March happened. We had a different plan ready to go and then Lockdown 2 happened. We've met speed bump after speed bump and we keep climbing over them to get to Friday night.

“So this show is about determination and resilience and this show reflects in those words what Irish people have been about all year.”

The most eagerly anticipated show of the year starts tomorrow at 9.35 on RTE One.
