Sorry, Nigel, you were outshone…

IT WAS a Late Late with a bit of everything, from celebs Angela Scanlon, Laura Whitmore and Brendan O’Carroll, above left, to a Brexit debate with Alastair Campbell, Baroness Dee Doocey and Nigel Farage, above right.

But it was a spoken-word poet with a monologue about what it means to be Irish who became the hit of the night, social media posts suggested. Stephen James Smith’s This Is Community struck a chord with many. Graham Norton’s take on Brexit was also popular. He said: ‘Everyone knows it is a bad idea. I shut my eyes, I do some deep breathing.’
