A young Leitrim farmer was one of the standout guests on this year's Late Late Toy Show as he charmed host Patrick Kielty with his Leitrim wit.
The young star, believed to be Kevin Keane from Drumshanbo, said a Leitrim half a dozen eggs were on offer at "five for the price of six" - with RTÉ tweeting that his next stop could be the Dragon's Den.
He proudly showed off his half a dozen eggs to host Kielty. When the host opened the box and saw there were only five, Kevin declared: "Five for the price of six. Sure you know yourself - eggflation," he said to a stumped Kielty.
The host laughed and said "fair play to you".
And the young Leitrim star was the talk of social media too.
