RYAN Tubridy is to make a dramatic return to the chat show circuit with a programme titled The Late Show.

In a move that will remind listeners of his stint as the Late Late Show host, newlywed Ryan is to present the talk style show on Youtube.

He has also announced his departure from Virgin Radio UK after two years, in a shock announcement that comes just weeks after he tied the knot to Clare Kambamettu in Connemara.

Ryan presented his final programme on Virgin Radio UK and Dublin's Q102 yesterday, though the former RTE presenter has confirmed he will remain with the News Broadcasting company.

In a statement, the company revealed the first project would be a standalone YouTube channel, named, The Late Show with Ryan Tubridy.
