RTE's Ryan Tubridy explains ‘confusing’ Late Late Toy Show advert

Ryan Tubridy has explained the “confusing” RTE Late Late Toy Show advert that has left fans baffled.

The advert for the most watched show in Ireland shows the children sleeping during the day before tuning into the Toy Show.

The Toy Show ad shows the children falling fast asleep all over the place, in areas including: the stairs, a horse and down on the floor beside the dog.

An RTE Radio One listener was eager to understand the thought process behind the clip and texted Tubs asking him to clear up some confusion about the ad.

She stated that her husband had been bickering whether the children were napping ahead of the Toy Show or if they were falling asleep after staying up late watching it.

Tubridy confessed: “As far as I know — you’d think I’d know, I’m in it — I think they’re all fast asleep after the event and [the final clip] is a throwback.

“I might make a quick call to the creatives behind this ad, just to clarify exactly.”

The Late Late Toy Show will take place on Friday, 26 November at 9:30pm on RTE One.
