Changes to RTÉ radio schedule as Late Late plans Toy Show ‘like no other’

Some big changes and big drama is headed our way this autumn on RTÉ radio and television. 

New faces, familiar faces in new places, and a range of the nation’s favourites lead RTÉ’s autumn 2020 line-up across television, radio, and online. File picture.

Listeners to RTÉ Radio 1 can expect a “big refresh” this autumn with a number of familiar names switching roles on flagship programmes, while the Late Late Show will return next week and promises to deliver a Toy Show this year “like no other”.

Hot on the heels of Claire Byrne’s move to the mid-morning radio show this week, Sarah McInerney and Cormac Ó hEadhra will now present Drivetime from 4.30pm while Áine Lawlor and Mary Wilson are moving to the Morning Ireland team.
