What to watch on TV tonight: Friday

This is 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 Graham Norton Show (BBC One, 11.05pm)

Tonight on Graham Norton, we’ve got another rake of celebs including every mam’s favourite – Michael Buble. Michael will sit down for a chat on the sofa before performing ‘I Only Have Eyes for You’. Alongside Michael Buble on the sofa, Graham will be chatting with Oscar-nominated actress Carey Mulligan and actors Ian McKellen and Taron Egerton. 

Alone at Home (Channel 4, 8pm) 

Not the Macaulay Culkin Christmas classic, but rather a documentary about parents who experience too much anxiety about their children’s lives. British parents are among the most anxious in Europe, so this series challenges a set of parents to leave their children alone at home for four days to look after themselves. Dan’s worried about his 14-year-old son Ethan, who struggles to make decisions and wonders how he’ll cope at home over the long weekend. Natalie’s leaving her two teenage daughters at home with the booze cabinet unlocked and is hoping they’ll do the right thing. 

The Late Late Show (RTÉ One, 9.35pm) 

Tonight Ryan Tubridy will be speaking to homelessness advocate Alice Leahy, who left her job as a nurse in the 1970s to go and live in a Dublin homeless shelter. Forty years later, she’s still dedicated to bettering the lives of Ireland’s homeless through her work with the Alice Leahy Trust. Following the release of her memoir on her work, she’ll join Tubs to discuss her work with Ireland’s most disadvantaged people. Ryan will also be chatting with Ireland’s most famous magician, Keith Barry. Eight years after chatting with Adam O’Sullivan, a young man who had been diagnosed with a brain tumour, Ryan catches up with Adam to see where his diagnosis is today and what’s next for him. The show will also take a look at adoption in Ireland.
