Times they are a changing. Okay so we know that's Bob Dylan's lyrics but can we all just pretend that Bruce Springsteen sings that, and not Bob.

The Late Late Show is making a massive change this Friday night when they will leave the comfort of the RTÉ studio to interview an all important guest. For the first time in 30 years they will do an interview in a different country when they meet Bruce Springsteen. The Late Late Show very rarely leaves the RTÉ campus, let alone the country, and it has been many years since a guest was interviewed outside of Ireland. The last time is believed to have been when Gay Byrne travelled to London to interview Hollywood star Jane Fonda in 1989. Speaking about the decision Ryan said:

"For one night only, The Late Late Show is making a small detour to London for a very special guest. This is very unusual, and not something we do very often, but when The Boss comes calling, you just can’t say no. It is a first in my time as host of The Late Late Show and we hope that people will roll with it because we felt he was someone worth chasing. The Irish people have a particular love of Bruce Springsteen, and him for us, and people will see that in the interview”.

The interview will be an Irish television exclusive and will air as part of another packed line-up on The Late Late Show this Friday. Also on the show will be Jeremy Paxman, who will open up about his troubled relationship with his father and how it influenced him as he became one of the most famous journalists in Britain. Olympic athlete Rob Heffernan and his coach, and wife, Marian will join Ryan to talk about missing out on his podium moment in London and what it feels like to get his silverware four years later. They will also be sharing the incredible story of how early difficulties were overcome on his way to becoming one of the few Irish track stars to win an Olympic medal. Model and presenter Vogue Williams will be chatting about her new TV show Vogue Williams: On the Edge where she tackles everything from transgender identity to doing internet drugs. Designer Don O’Neill will be talking about dressing some of the most famous women in the world including Oprah with viewers being treated to a glimpse at some of his stunning creations. Following on from Taoiseach Enda Kenny’s recent call for a national conversation about pornography, a panel discussion, made up of sexologist Emily Power Smith and columnists Brenda Power and Ian O’Doherty, will debate if that conversation is necessary, the impact of pornography on young people and whether action is needed. Rounding off the show will be music from The Sugarhill Gang and John Spillane. Friday night sorted.
