Oh, the mortification.
There’s no denying that the Late Late Show Valentine’s special is extremely embarrassing but to be fair, those involved are well up for the craic.
Tonight saw the entire audience perform the opening number, Al Porter try to smooch Ryan Tubridy and a full-on Blind Date sequence where the conversation involved tractors and nurse’s uniforms.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Anyway, despite the fact that people have been giving about the show, they’re watching nonetheless and here’s what they had to say.
Here are just some of the tweets sent about the love-themed special…
Ah calm down twitter … if you weren't entertained you wouldn't be on here mouthing off. You love crystal swing ??#LateLateShow

#LateLateShow right, this was amusing until Ryan asked about the meaning of a tattoo. Christ.
