Mary Lou McDonald, Simon Pegg and Paloma Faith are among the guests who will feature on this week’s Late Late Show.
The Sinn Féin leader will join Patrick Kielty to discuss the disruptive beginning of this Dáil term. She will share her thoughts on the party’s performance in recent elections and look ahead to Sinn Féin’s priorities in opposition including their ongoing campaign for a united Ireland.
Acclaimed actor, screenwriter and producer, Simon Pegg – known for hits like Shaun of the Dead and Run Fatboy Run, as well as standout roles in Star Trek and Star Wars – will drop in to chat about his return as Benji Dunn in Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.
He is set to tell Kielty about stepping back into the action-packed role and share stories from behind the scenes.

She’ll also be chatting about her Sunday Times bestselling book MILF, the myth of perfect motherhood and celebrating her birthday in Ireland. The star has recently been confirmed as a contestant in the celebrity version of Traitors.
Cork comedian Chris Kent will sit down with Kielty ahead of his Irish tour Offline. Renowned for his storytelling and sharp wit, Chris discusses why unplugging from the digital world has become a central theme in his comedy. He also opens up about how fatherhood has shaped his material.
