    Old Mr. Brennan is a state of mind

    Bill Goulding (Wonderly Wagon) used to do the voice - he was often mistaken for Ronnie Drew.

    He sounds like he's talking through his beard which means its covers his entire mouth so he can't be hard to spot on the street

    Could you clarify if this is a question?
    Thanks

    He's long since retired and very wealthy.
    He doesn't knead the dough anymore.

    I'd say he came out of the womb talking like that.

    :D Reminds me of the Big Tom (and the Mainliners) interview when he was asked how does he unwind after a show.

    "There's nothin I like more than to go back to the dressin room for a mug o tae and a big bag of buns".

    P.S not to be seen to go off topic - Auld Mr Brennan is now called Sharon and works in the Dart Office in Bray.

    I thought it was Charlie Haughey.

    He lives in all our hearts! :D:rolleyes:

    could be Eamon Morrissey aka Cass from Fair City?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    I'd just like to point out that nobody plays Old Mr. Brennan.

    You never actually hear Old Mr. Brennan talking in those ads, they are in fact all narrated by Old Mr Brennan's unnamed friend.

    Old Mr Brennan could sound like a castrato for all we know.


    F*ck yeah. :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,990 ✭✭✭longshanks


    I hate those ads.

    The chap who does the voice was on the radio a while back complaining that serious voice actors are now losing out to the likes of Tom Dunne and Ray Foley etc. as voice talent. Sounded like a right prick.

    But anyhoo, I can't stand the ads and as a result dont buy brennans bread.

    I think his voice sounds like the kind of voice that children would be too quick to trust.

    It's a little known fact but if you find yourself on trial in this country you can get off scott-free by saying "fúck off and mind your own fúcking business" whilst under questioning. (It must however be an accurate impression to work).

    Ryan Turdity used to do the voice afaik until he turned 12.

    I hate those ads and the stupid words contained therein - "whistler", "chisler" and other such nonsense it's just gone on too long - puts me off buying Brennan's bread - it actually does - when I see the yellow pack of their sliced pan when shopping I will think - "them cnuts insist on putting those annoying ads on the radio, I will not knowingly support that crap" - hence opposite effect of what they were hoping !

    It's young Mr. Brennan who does the voiceover.
    Old Mr. Brennan "doesn't get about much anymore".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,591 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    I heard he's a fiend for the white sliced, on 6 sliced pans a day.

    Who would win a fight between Old Mister Brennan and Harry Molloy??
    Anything goes, except eye gouging.
    For my money it's just too close to call. Maybe Brennan shades it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,435 ✭✭✭wandatowell


    Brennans bread and a decent slap of Dairygold ***NICE*** you can all shove ye're hams and cheeses up your holes

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭Johro


    They used to air this spoof Brennans ad on local radio, this guy went 'and could you please tell us Mr Brennan, what is the secret if your lovely fresh bread?', and 'Mr Brennan' said,' Would ya ever just f#ck off and mind yer own f#ckin business.'
    Class.

    'Geraldine here from DID electrical'. Is this Queen still on the airwaves? Her haughty tones always gave me a laugh.
