Sir, – The Late Late Show set was a sorry sight. Why the big table?
Regarding the positioning of the chairs and the guests, they were on top of the host and each other. I imagine that both host and guests must be suffering from neck strain after the show!
I could recommend a good physiotherapist if the budget allows! – Yours, etc,

Sir, – Patrick Kielty was very enjoyable as the new host of the Late Late Show on RTÉ television on Friday night.
However, where on earth did RTÉ get that desk from? – Yours, etc,

Sir, – Why not have a coffee-table format for the Late Late Show productions, with the interviewer and the interviewee communicating over a low table?
I would like to see all guests seated at the same level, as if sitting at home or in a hotel lobby. This would add a degree of informality to the show and look more relaxed to the viewers. The current practice of the presenter being in a raised position, behind a desk and looking down ever so slightly on the guest, looks rather domineering. After all, this is a chat show. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – The Late Late Show, sponsored by Permananent TSB.
There’s a mortgage increase for everyone in the audience. – Yours, etc,
