Who are the guests on tonight's RTÉ Late Late Show?

There's a great range of guests lined up for Friday night's Late Late Show with the likes of Mary Lou McDonald, Simon Pegg and Paloma Faith joining Patrick Kielty in studio. 

The Sinn Féin leader, Mary Lou, will chat to Patrick about the very disruptive start to the new Dáil term, her thoughts on the party's recent election performance, and their continuing priorities which include a united Ireland. 

Movie star Simon Pegg will be in studio on Friday night to discuss his upcoming role in Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning. The Shaun of the Dead, Run Fatboy Run and Star Trek star will chat to Patrick about all things acting, writing, producing as well sharing some stories from behind the scenes of his new film.

Singing and podcast sensation Paloma Faith will also appear on Friday night's show. Paloma will discuss her Sunday Times bestselling book MILF, as well as celebrating her birthday in Ireland. 

Then for some comedic relief, Cork comedian Chris Kent will join Patrick ahead of his Irish tour 'Offline.' The comedian will chat about how unplugging from the digital world and fatherhood have both shaped his comedy. 

Music on the night will come from KhakiKid who will perform his song Date Nite in studio. 

You can catch the Late Late Show on Friday night at 9.35pm on RTÉ One.
