The annual Irish fest that is the Late Late toy show is over for another year. It appears to have gone quite well, with less mechanical failures (of toys) than previous years. However some of the children performing looked considerably depressed, a worrying trend. Kenny seemed in good form, having separated himself from the toy show tickets fiasco with Cork woman Barbara Heavey last week (she by the way spent last night in the Merrion Hotel as per the prize with her elderly mother).
The highlight of the show had to be the appearance from Nicky of Westlife who dropped in with his twin sons, the famous Jay and Rocco, who are nineteen months to speak with a girl who is undergoing treatment in Tallaght Hospital. The Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, also made an appearance later in the show to discuss books with Pat and the kids.
Top toys for this year seem to be the same as ever- book and gadgets, but anything related to Hannah Montana or the Wii also seems to be a winner.
The audience came away with an armful of gifts this year also. The silly hats and costumes were optional I think.

Isn't it quite sad that these were the "highlights" of what's meant to be the top variety show produced by the national broadcaster?
