Republic of Ireland legend Packie Bonner will be taking a trip down memory lane on this week’s Late Late Show as the Italia 90 squad reunites. Marking 35 years since Ireland first qualified for the World Cup, Patrick Kielty will welcome Mick McCarthy, Niall Quinn, Packie Bonner, Ronnie Whelan, Ray Houghton, John Aldridge, Kevin Sheedy, David O’Leary, Andy Townsend, Chris Hughton, Chris Morris, Steve Staunton, Kevin Moran, Bernie Slaven, John Sheridan, Frank Stapleton and David Kelly to studio. Bonner is best remembered for his famous save to deny Daniel Timofte at Italia ’90 as Ireland overcame Romania to reach the World Cup quarter-finals. A native of Burtonport, Bonner was also a skilled GAA player and had a handful of appearances for the Donegal senior team. Friday’s Late Late show will be themed on St Patrick’s Day with music, dancing, reunions and returns. Riverdance will be taking over The Late Late Show studio on Friday night as the cast showcase the global phenomenon which began as the interval act during the Eurovision Song Contest 1994. Grammy Award-winner and Cork singer-songwriter Cian Ducrot will be on the show to perform his new song Little Dreaming. Fresh from singing the National Anthems at last week’s Six Nations Cian, who has just announced his first headline show at the 3Arena for later this year, will also sit down with Patrick this Friday night for a chat. Nerves are building and the tension is rising as the winner of this year’s Dancing with the Stars is just days away from taking home the coveted glitterball. Joining Patrick on the show tonight are the anticipatory finalists Jack Woolley, Rhys McClenaghan, Kayleigh Trappe and Danny O’Carroll along with their pro-partners Alexandra Vladimirov, Laura Nolan, Ervinas Merfeldas and Salome Chachua. They’ll be chatting about their time spent on and off the dancefloor, the friendships they’ve made and more. Get ready for a ‘Rollercoaster’ of a performance as B*Witched make their return to The Late Late Show this Friday night. Chart toppers Keavy, Edele, Sinead and Lindsay will be performing an ultimate fan favourite. And that’s not all, Irish rugby fans in Rome will have the chance to win a pair of tickets to the Italy v Ireland match this Saturday.
