Ah the Late Late Toy Show is only wonderful – and two Laois lads were among the action tonight.
Ryan Tubridy was at his brilliant best tonight with super guests like Shane Lowry and Katie Taylor.
But among all the chaos were two Laois lads – Fiachra from Abbeyleix and Fynn from Mountmellick.
Eight-year-old Fiachra Kelly from Abbeyleix was up first and he doing one of presenter Ryan’s favourite things – reading books.
Son of Gar and Sile Kelly, Fiachra goes to school in Scoil Mhuire in Abbeyleix.
He loves nature and reviewed a book called Crystals and Gems – and also told Ryan about how he began wearing glasses after a bee flew into his eye!
For being so good, Ryan presented Fiachra with a rare crystal from the Glengowla Mines in Connemara.
And not only that – Tubridy also arranged for Fiachra and his family to go to the mines for a VIP trip.
Up next was Fynn Loughnane is from Mountmellick and goes to school in Scoil Phadraig Naofa.
The nine-year-old, the only child of Jim and Ann, was testing some really cool science equipment.
He and Ryan made fake snow and there was something of a mishap when Ryan threw the snow into Fynn’s eyes and mouth!
However, like all good TV stars, Fynn took it in his stride and recovered to make a giant bubble.
Well done to the two lads who really represented Laois well on the biggest TV night of the year.
