Katherine Lynch’s Wagon’s Den: RTÉ Two
Thursday 31st January: 10pm
Tongue-in-cheek comedy chat show, starring Katherine Lynch as Sheila Chic, who invites Brian Dowling and guests to give their take on the week’s celebrity news and gossip.
NB: I’m not 100% sure if this is the edition that Toyah guests in but it seems likely as she filmed her appearance at RTÉ in Dublin on Monday night. Toyah tweeted a photo of herself travelling to Dublin and also a message on Tuesday about her visit: “Thank u 2 all @ wagons den, rte dublin. Wild night! OMG charlotte -letitia crosby of Geordie shore…outrageous.”
The interview Toyah recorded last week for Channel 4 News will air on the programme tomorrow evening. Toyah will be discussing punk and how it changed the role of women in a feature on the new book ‘PUNK: The Best Of Punk Magazine’. A short clip of Toyah’s interview was shown at the end of tonight’s news.
