COMIC Pat Shortt has said Late Late Show bosses shouldn’t rule out a comic to host the show.
The D’Unbelievables star was speaking as he was enjoying a day at the races yesterday, joining hordes of fans at the Punchestown festival.
Taking a break from his punts, Pat focussed on the Late Late Show, and said the Friday night chat show is in serious need of a “major shake up”.
Asked if he thought a comedian should be considered as its next host, he reckoned it shouldn’t be ruled out.
Pat continued: “ My view on it is that the show needs a shake up. What that is, I don’t know. I’m not a TV producer who makes those decisions.
“But I think Ryan has done a great job and I think he has done an amazing job with the Toy Show. It’s incredible. But I think the Late Late Show needs a shake up big time.”
Pat said RTE should take inspiration from American chat shows for its future format.
He added: “I would look towards American chat shows like Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon.”
Asked if he thought a woman should be its next host after Ryan Tubridy steps down on May 26, he said: “Maybe so and everyone says it should be a woman because it has been men doing the line but if they’re good enough to do it, absolutely.
