Who is on the Late Late Show with Ryan Tubridy this week? Julian Benson and Greg O'Shea lead line-up

Julian Benson will talk about finally buying a house for CF patients and their families to stay while they are receiving treatment in hospital through monies raised through Julian Benson CF Foundation and money that was raised on The Late Late Show.

Before opening the doors to this house, Julian has a big project ahead of him to renovate the house and will appeal to the public on the night for their support.

Olympian and winner of Love Island 2019 Greg O’Shea joins Ryan on the couch to chat about rising to fame, retiring from rugby and the impact the last three years have taken on his mental health.

As Operation Transformation returned to our screens earlier this week, the show will welcome this year’s leaders Marie Clear, Andrea Daly, Lorraine Dempsey, Stephanie Bowden and Thomas Hynes as they embark on a health and wellness plan to kick-start a new chapter in their lives.

With the nation transfixed by the Regency Hotel murder trial, the Sunday World's Nicola Tallant will join Ryan to discuss how the Kinahan gang rose to become one of the biggest crime cartels in the world and how it's all come crashing down after they found themselves in the crosshairs of the US Authorities.

To mark Nollaig Na mBan, there will be a very special performance by some of Ireland's best female singers and musicians including Niamh Farrell (Ham Sandwich), Pamela Connolly (Pillow Queens), Krea (Wyvern Lingo), Faye O'Rourke (Soda Blonde), Saibh Skelly and Susan O'Neill. They will perform Sinead O'Connor's anthemic hit Mandinka with the Theodora Byrne choir and an all-female band.

And in the spirit of Nollaig na mBan, Toshín Bankole will perform a special version of the classic Respect.
