How Toy Show The Musical went wrong for RTÉ
The Late Late Toy Show is Ireland's most popular TV show every year by a distance, but Toy Show: The Musical was a complete flop, losing €2.2 million in its first year. How did it go so badly wrong? And what does the story tell us about the organisation RTÉ has become and where it is going? Bernice Harrison asks Hugh Linehan. This episode was originally broadcast in July 2023. A forthcoming report by auditors Grant Thornton into the controversial Toy Show: The Musical is expected in early 2024. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
