Irish Oscar nominees among guests for this week's (Jan 27) Late Late Show

Irish Oscar nominees among other guests will be live in studio for this week's Late Late Show. 

The show will mark an incredible 14 Irish Oscar nominations with guests including writer and director Colm Bairéad and producer Cleona Ní Chrualaoi of An Cailín Ciúin (The Quiet Girl), the first Irish language feature film to be nominated for the prestigious award. 

Grossing more than €1 million at the box office in Ireland and the UK, the film has become the most successful Irish language film ever with two BAFTA nominations also under its belt. 

Actor and proud Tipp man Daryl McCormack (Bad Sisters, Peaky Blinders and Good Luck to You, Leo Grande) will be on the show to chat about his whopping double BAFTA nomination, while BAFTA award-winning actress and Harry Potter’s Miriam Margolyes and Senator Lynn Ruane will join Ryan on the couch to discuss their summer holiday in a campervan, their shared love of the Aran Islands and their upcoming documentary about Lady Gregory. 

Ryan will also speak with Karina Molloy - one of the first women to join the Irish Defence Forces - about her experiences of harassment, sexual assault and bullying while serving and why she decided to speak out. 

Plus, Aby Coulibaly will showcase her new single, Derek Ryan and Emma Langford will perform a special duet called 'Everywhere with you', and comedian Conor Moore (aka Conor's Sketches) will perform some hilarious impressions. 

The Late Late Show airs on RTÉ One on Friday January 27 at 9.35pm.
