Tonight marks the final Late Late Show of the season and it looks set to be a lively show indeed!

The highlight for many will undoubtedly be the charity dance-off, which will see four well-known faces do battle on the dance floor.

First up, Dermot Bannon will be dancing Bollywood style for Barnardos, Majella O’Donnell will be doing the jive for Arc Cancer Support Centres, George Hook will be dancing the Charleston for the IRFU Charitable Trust and Rose of Tralee Maria Walsh will be doing the salsa for Bumbleance.

George Hook is set to rock the dance floor. 

In true Strictly style, each of them will be taking to the floor with a professional dancer, while a panel of judges – including our favourite Louis Walsh – will give their verdict on the performance before the public will vote for their favourite.

Meanwhile, the show will also pay tribute to broadcasting legend Bill O’Herlihy with the ‘three amigos’, John Giles, Eamon Dunphy and Liam Brady, leading the way.

Speaking about the tribute, host Ryan Tubridy stated: “Bill was very important to people in RTÉ and to me personally. He was a lovely man, very warm and encouraging.

“He was on the show many times. We’re looking forward to remembering him, but with a laugh as well, as he was a very humorous man.”

Russell in a tux? Always a good look.
Russell Crowe was a favourite for Ryan.

He added that the highlight of this year’s season of The Late Late for him had to be Gabriel Byrne, Richard E Grant and Russell Crowe.

The Late Late Show airs tonight at 9.35pm on RTÉ One.
