The world of Roald Dahl is the theme for this year's Late Late Toy Show.

Matilda and Willy Wonka's Oompa Loompas will feature on the show this Friday night.

While host Ryan Tubridy will open the programme as Fantastic Mr Fox.


This year there will be a new international element to the show with children from around the world taking part virtually.

With Covid-19 changing plans for how the show takes: "Traditionally, sick children from LauraLynn, The Jack & Jill Children's Foundation, CHI at Temple Street and CHI at Crumlin would be invited to come and visit The Late Late Toy Show set for what was always a magical afternoon."

"This year, as Covid restrictions have prevented this from happening, some children from Crumlin, Temple Street, Jack & Jill and LauraLynn have been asked to take part in a special performance on the show, filmed remotely, so that they can still play a very special role in the evening."

"Toys have kindly been sent in from toy retailers all around the country, and the toys demoed by children on The Late Late Toy Show will be donated to charities across the country in time for Christmas."
