One of the few decent Christmas movies left that hasn't already been snapped up by Sky!

Not Going Out airing a live episode on Fri 21st Dec.

Tim vine in it?

For obvious reasons; the first showing of the Christmas campaign for RTÉ is promoting The Late Late Toy Show this Friday night.

RTÉ's own slogan for this festive season is Make it Home This Christmas!

The trailer for the Toy show has not been put up on Youtube yet. I tried searching for but to of no avail so far.

A sneak peak of their Christmas schedule is up here.

Most likely accompanied by the same RTÉ Christmas idents and presentation that they have trotted out for years and years.

RTÉ Sport Awards 2017? Brooklyn? Spectre? Hmm I’m getting a bit of sense of deja vu here...

I'm reminded of what Richard Dawson says in The Running Man just before Arnie sends him to his death (starts at 3:28 )...

And never a truer word was spoken! However my real point is, have a look at the date on the article...

Are we expecting the Christmas TV press release from the BBC tomorrow?

Ah sh*t. I have just realized the date on the article on entertainment.ie was for last year.

I went on Google search & it said Oct 25th 2018. Thanks Google for messing that up on me.

Google lies? Well I never.
