Ryan Tubridy and the The Late Late Show team launches new campaign
People in Laois who have something that's in terrible shape but they believe could be revitalised into treasure might be able to realise their restoration dream with the help of Ryan Tubridy and The Late Late Show team.
The RTÉ presenter is launching The Late Late ShowBig Repair Challenge on the show of Friday, March 3.
"Whether, you have something of sentimental value that is falling apart but you just can't throw in the skip? Whether it's your tattered mother's wedding dress, your first teddy bear that you want to pass on to your own children or the banjaxed transistor radio in the shed, everything is welcome in our repair shop.
"If you have a passion project and think you can turn your junk into treasure, we want to hear from you. We will have experts on hand to give you a few pointers so all you need is an object that is in dire need of repair and a bit of elbow grease," said Ryan and co.
Selected passion projects for The Late Late Show Big Repair Challenge special will be showcased in all their glory before the end of the season.
