Irish viewers experienced both tears of sadness and joy while watching the Brendan Grace Late Late Show Tribute on Friday night.
The late comedian's name was unsurprisingly the top Twitter trend in Ireland, as RTE aired some of the Dubliner's most iconic moments.
The funnyman, 68, passed away in July after a battle with lung cancer in a death that saddened the nation.
Now, months after his untimely death, RTE aimed to look back on the life and times of the great comedian, with heartwarming clips from over the years.
And viewers have heaped praised on the programme which was hosted by Ryan Tubridy.
One person wrote: "Full credit to all those involved in the @RTELateLateShow and the tribute to Brendan Grace.
"A great comedian but for me hearing him sing is wonderful.
"And on that get a listen to Brandon Grace singing That Old Guitar on the tribute concert to his father over Christmas."
Another said: "Laughing and feeling sad at the same time watching two legends Gay Byrne and Brendan Grace. Thanks for memories gentlemen."
A third said: "Absolutely loving the Brendan Grace tribute #latelateshowrte .
