The annual Late Late Toy Show has been a staple of Irish television for many a year now, and by one look at this year's ratings, it clearly won't be going anywhere any time soon, thankfully. So it's understandable that a rival channel like TV3 would like to get in on the action, and come up with their own one, even if it really was the poor man's version.

Brian McFadden and Karen Koster did give it socks though, no Ryan Tubridy mind, but they gave it a go. So the good folk of Republic of Telly decided it would only be fair to rate the two shows side by side to decide who would emerge on top.

Brace yourselves for the 'Toy Show Face-Off'....
