Would love an actual Christmas toy show with Christmas poems, songs, dances etc by the entertainers... I remember when I was a child, it was Billy Barry every year & way more Christmas focused in the acts... Billy Barry haven't been on it in years!

So there was no need to "roll it there Colette" 😂

I would be far from an expert but I wouldn't have thought there was a sniff of a chance of that Grin

For those saying there are very few toys on it I'm getting the impression that it's a deliberate move away from showing too much shiny expensive "stuff" and it being more of a family pre Christmas show . They no longer have Smyths as the big main sponsor but mention smaller and independent retailers.

The title of the show should change from the Late Late Toy Show to the Late Late Childrens Variety Show. I enjoyed the show but there was very little in it to reflect Christmas.

I didn't think it was great. Too much singing and dancing and not enough actual toys. Boring!!!

But it's not up to a TV show to manage children's expectations around Christmas and toys. That's the parents job surely. And if that is the case then simply stop advertising it as a toy show. My kids gave it a 3 out of 10 and a 5 out of 10 mainly because they saw hardly any toys and said Ryan was boring this year.

@ineedanewbum that's just my impression of where the show is going I'm not saying it's right or wrong. I'm personally not a big fan and don't get the massive fuss over it. Thankfully my own children are the same.
