The Toy Show is being streamed live on the International RTÉ Player free around the world, online on web browsers and via the iOS and Android apps – so that should be your main port of call for your Toy Show fix.

For anyone who doesn’t fancy getting up at the crack of dawn to catch it live, it will also be available for another three weeks on demand.

OK… so how reliable is the RTÉ Player?

Very reliable.

But, as with any online stream, it’s never going to be quite as reliable as if it were beamed right into your telly.

It’s been known to freeze a few times

But it should be GRAND.

There is also this screening happening for those Irish based in London and wanting to get some communal festive spirit going

The screening takes place on Saturday, the night after the Toy Show airs:
