What to watch on TV tonight: Friday

Here’s the telly that everyone will be talking about tomorrow.

DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.

The Late Late Show Valentine’s Special (RTÉ One, 9.35pm)

Are you ready? Because you’d want to be. Once again, RTÉ invites singletons on the Late Late, gives them a few sherries, and lets them run riot. Previous years have been…raucous, to say the least. #latelate

The Graham Norton Show (BBC1, 10.35pm)

If you can’t handle the Late Late, hop on over to Graham, who has a bevy of stars on with him tonight: Denzel Washington, Whoopi Goldberg, Keanu Reeves AND Jamie Dornan. Phew. #grahamnorton

Anchorman (RTÉ2, 9.35pm)

Relentlessly quotable comedy starring Will Ferrell as the titular 1970s Anchorman, Ron Burgundy. Tons of famous faces co-star, including Christina Applegate, Steve Carell, and Paul Rudd.

Casting for the second series of the award-winning Netflix drama is slowly being revealed – and most excitingly, Dexter’s Michael C Hall will play John F Kennedy, with South African actress Jackie Balfour portraying Jackie Kennedy.

S2 will be the last outing for Claire Foy and Matt Smith as Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, as they make way for older actors to portray the aging royals.
