Tonight’s Late Late Show featured entrepreneur Richard Branson whose company Virgin Media recently took over UPC.
The businessman, who regularly hob nobs with celebrities, cut right to the chase and told Ryan he hated ties, saying they’re like “a noose around one’s neck”.
Going one step further, he then took a scissor out of his pocket and went for the show host’s tie.
We would definitely have him back, between Branson and Panti Bliss, tonight’s Late Late show was one of the liveliest we’ve watched in a while.
Obvious statement but Rory O’Neill is a fascinating individual & I’m absolutely loving this interview #latelate

Somewhere in RTÉ, there is a wardrobe assistant weeping at the wasted hours spent picking that tie and cursing Richard Branson #LateLate — Cain (@ItMightBeCain) October 2, 2015
