Nightmare.
The ever-controversial and terrifyingly-opinionated Katie Hopkins appeared on The Late Late Show last night.
In the lead-up to her going on the show with Ryan Tubs, RTÉ received over 1,300 complaints against the English TV personality.
The show went ahead… but people are not one bit happy about the shit she was stirring.
If you didn’t watch last night’s show, here’s a little taster of how it went…

Here’s what people had to say:
Why watch Katie Hopkins on the #latelate when you can just set yourself on fire?

Can we all please stop mentioning THAT particular guest on tonight’s #latelate, that VILE specimen doesn’t deserve our attention ???????? pic.twitter.com/to4BrSd1wY

Didn’t bother watching #latelate tonight. Sorry @rte I think you do a great job. Just reflect on the choice you made today. It was poor.

This isn’t pleasant, this isn’t entertaining, this should be a lesson to @rte. Never again book that woman #LateLate

What the #latelate could be doing during this deeply unsettling week is inviting on positive & hopeful community builders. Not bigots.

Toughest dilemma of my presidency so far is do I watch #KatieHopkins on the #LateLate or do I repaint the entire Áras using a toothbrush?

There was a lot of support for Irish journalist Colette Browne as she debated with Hopkins
We’ll leave you with this one…
Every time I see Katie Hopkins on TV, I think.. #LateLateShow #latelate pic.twitter.com/jozkUtH9qI

A lot of people are giving out and asking why RTÉ gave Hopkins a platform to talk even more shite… While people were tweeting #notwatchingthelatelate to reject and object the appearance, telling people what they were doing instead of watching the show.
