    She’s spending all her time trying to get her little dancing brother a gig.

    She was doing ya man Sisqo when he had The Thong Song

    She played Merida's mother in Once Upon A Time, I think making herself welcome in Hollywood cos they love to cast Irish as Brits.

    Played Actress #3 in the recent Last Tycoon. I remember the first thing she did in the US was a Doctor Who FANFILM! Yes, really.

    And Victoria Smurfit was cast as Cruella DeVille-and then charged 25 quid for her signature. In sterling, not euros.

    They all do that at cons, but Smurfit's always been an unlikeable presence.

    True, and true
    But not all those con people have multi millionaire dads. She has always been unlikable, hasn't she? It's one of those unexplainable things, isn't it?

    Don Conroy is still around, he often pops up giving art advice and so on.

    http://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/healthandlife/parenting/acclaimed-artist-don-conroy-says-the-joy-of-creativity-is-in-the-action-421166.html

    Sharkey was on Claire Byrne a few months back (two or three, I believe). He's broke, and was proceeding to promote a 'help the IRish out first, the the non-Irish' and included himself in the non Irish, like some kind of scale.

    It was really bizarre, tbh.

    Kevin Sharky pops up from time to time in the news usually as a result of going bankrupt or some legal issues. No idea what Don Conroy is up to these days.

    - he seems to be keeping his profile up amongst his Czech audience, anyway.

    ha that's actually a good point. on one hand you'd think they had something to say but then again it's a very sensitive issue too. however i'd say his age profile and style doesn't match the language used in their tweets.

    He has posted after the whole Creaven thing.
    Is it just me or does Creaven look like a balder, less cheery/avuncular version of Mick Foster of Foster and Allen?

    They may have realised that saying stuff everyone who wanted to know knew already wasn't very exciting :pac:

    Age profile is true but maybe it's a collection of anecdotes so it's not narrowed down to one person.
    Look at the Secret Footballer, it took years for him to be narrowed down to Dave Kitson.

    Remember when he turned up on some show called the Salon, I think? It was British,,a reality tv show, and he had the most horrific toenails you ever saw.

    Almost made the poor pedicurist vomit.

    Apparently has a twitter. Dunno if its legit tho.

    I think the kindest thing for everyone would be to take away his passport. It is sanctuary the poor man needs. A terrible tragedy.

    You can defrock him in the morning but he still is retaining the title of a religious Father. It would have been simple and kinder just to deny him a passport as he is "a danger to himself and other people" (See Silverstone).

    Thats another Irish Celebrity Priest you dont hear much about ? Fr. Pat Ryan Father Pat Ryan.

    Took out 2 MI-6 agents and made off with 200 timing devices ....
