1980s singing sensation Jason Donovan is set to appear on The Late Late Show this Friday.

The 80s teen idol and Neighbours heartthrob will be chatting to Ryan Tubridy about achieving international fame on the soap and as a popstar, as well as talking about how becoming a father changed his life.

Donovan will also reveal how trips to the jungle and appearing on Strictly Come Dancing revitalised his career.

TV presenter Eamonn Holmes will  be joining Tubs on the Late Late with his wife and This Morning co-host Ruth Langsford where they will talk about how their very different approaches to work and life make for a happy marriage.

Holmes, who had a major double hip operation last year, will talk about how the past year has been one of the toughest of his wife as he recovered from the surgery and left Sky News after 11 years.

She will also be treating viewers to a beautiful rendition of a classic.
