Tipperary's Una Healy wows Late Late Show viewers with Nathan Carter duet
There was one more local element to the performance as well...
Late Late Show viewers were given a real festive treat on Friday night by Una Healy and Nathan Carter's performance of a classic Christmas song.
The Thurles singer Una and Nathan's live performance of Cliff Richard’s festive favourite "Mistletoe and Wine" had everyone talking on social media.
Una's participation wasn't the only local element to the Late Late Show on Friday night, the children's choir from Corville National School in Roscrea also appeared alongside two of Ireland’s best-known singers in Nathan and Una for their performance of the Christmas hit.
The pair have joined forces for the first time to record the Christmas classic in aid of Barnardos.
They released the song, originally released by Cliff in 1988, to mark both the festive season and the release of Nathan's brand new album Crazy Christmas.
Many of those watching at home took to Twitter to share their views on the performance.
Merry Christmas from everyone at The #LateLate Show ❤️ pic.twitter.com/qIlXGFGhKE

"It went fairly smoothly until I hosted my first ever Christmas a few years back when I was still living in the UK. I was ringing my mother asking for tips. How long does a turkey take and how do I get it.
"I went shopping, had the big trolly and went to the ham section. Found a fine lump of ham, she [her mum] said 'boil the ham the night before and roast it the next day'. I put it on a slow boil, went out and had a few scoops with my friends.
"Came back and that didn’t smell like ham, it was a strange smell. Lifted the lid and it was a white meat…there was no ham," she said.
