    That lad who had a minor part in Titanic he was also in Last of The High Kings,at the time there was this big noise about how he was going to make it big in Hollywood and then he just disappeared.
    The fella with the moustache who used to be in The Bill years ago(not the big fat guy).He was considered something of a sex symbol at the time.

    It's a fine line he walks, but for pure Oscar winning performance, did you never hear him crying in the radio interview about the friends "loans"?:rolleyes:

    Hugh O'Connor from the Young Poisoners Handbook. You hardly ever see him in anything now.

    Don Wycherley from the likes of Ballykissangel and Bachelors Walk. I haven't seen him around in a while, always liked him as an actor.

    Stuart Dunne, AKA Billy Meehan from Fair City. There's a guy who should have been cast in Love/Hate.

    The Fair City Wikipedia page is the funniest thing I've ever read:
    The show has featured a number of gritty storylines reflecting major issues in Irish society.....Wearing pyjamas during the day was covered with Sash Bishop

    The best storyline Fair City ever had, it really caught on with the public, for a few months everyone knew who Billy Meehan was.

    he is a fantastic actor - he has been doing a lot of theatre over the past few years. I have seen a trailer for something with him in it recently but I can't remember if it was a film or new tv show, sorry :o
