WATCH: RTE Late Late host Patrick Kielty brushes up on GAA skills ahead of special show

Patrick Kielty was brushing up on his GAA skills this week ahead of hosting a GAA special on the RTE Late Late Show on Friday night, April 5.

The Down native donned his county colours and took to the GAA pitch to see if he's still got it 37 years on from winning the Minor All-Ireland Championship final in 1987.

Kielty was the sub goalkeeper that day and it shows in his practice shooting this week. 

Host Patrick Kielty this week has said there will be a GAA special on the Late Late and we know members of the Tipperary and Offaly Ladies football teams from the first All-Ireland final in 1974 will make an appearance.

Producers are tight-lipped about the rest of the line-up this week but there will be more GAA guests on the sofa.

The Late Late Show airs on RTE One television at 9.35pm this Friday night, April 5.
