WATCH: Patrick Kielty walks off RTE Late Late Show stage mid-interview in odd moment
Patrick Kielty was interviewing Derry Girls and Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan alongside Spice Girls star Mel B
RTE Late Late Show host Patrick Kielty jokingly walked off stage on Friday night's show during an interview with Derry Girls actress Nicola Coughlin and Spice Girls star Mel B.
Mel B had been interviewed on her own first before Patrick introduced Nicola, who is not only the star of Derry Girls, Bridgerton and Barbie, but is also a major Spice Girls fan, to the studio audience.
It was clear that Nicola and Mel were fans of each other and as Mel B probed the Galway native with questions about her next project, Patrick walked away from his desk as if to suggest he wasn't needed for the chat.
The Late Late Show Twitter account even joked that Mel B was "guest host" for the night.
Viewers loved the interaction between Mel B and Nicola and took to social media to praise both. Patrick also played an adorable clip of Nicola impersonating the Spice Girls as a child.
One wrote: "Great show so far. Loving the fandom between Nicola and Mel B."
Another added: "I am loving how into this Mel B is; she's like a cheerleader for Nicola."
