– Jim Dempsey Co DublinThe Late Late Show marked, for me, the beginning of a lifelong obsession with current affairs. As a child it was The Late Late Toy Show, as a teenager the famous bands, the fashion shows, even the antiques night. Only last week, after 42 years, I finally made it into the Late Late Show audience. I brought my late mum, who would always tell people about her visit to the Late Late. Since his retirement, in 1999, I don’t think I have sat through a full episode of The Late Late Show.
