    Bill Murray, I'd say he'd be some craic.
    Jessica Chastain comes across as a very grounded and humble lady.

    Ok, here's my REAL guy....

    Michael Portillo, pastel jackets and all. Love to have a couple of pints with him in some iconic Railway Hotel in England. He could read excerpts from his Bradshaw's.

    Now, if anyone knows for certain that he's a snobby sh!te, don't ruin it for me.

    He's a regular on Andrew Neil's This Week on BBC Thursday nights. Not a snob but a true Tory.

    Harrison Ford, just wouldn't wanna be on the plane he flies.

    Also Kurt Russell, would love to hang out with him.

    Was at a couple of Q&As that Michael Fassbender has done for films and he seemed sound.

    Jason Newsted of Metallica fame seems like a decent bloke, seems very humble and sound in interviews, never let the fame go to his head.

    Dave Grohl seems like a sound guy too.

    Aha, sound guy so!!

    ... sits back in anticipation of a small amount of flak

    Actually, saw him interviewed once on a programme about Education. He's a Grammar School boy. Didn't do him any harm.

    No, he's not a bad sort. Don't care much for his politics though.

    Waiting for srameen to say Richard Attenborough...

    I met the cast of today fm breakfast show a few years ago. Mairead Farrell is absolutely lovely. A total lady but not up herself at all. Ian Dempsey was pretty sound too but a bit quiet and reserved. I've met Mario Rosenstock a few times and he is dead sound too. And the lovely Paula Mcsweeney is a lovely girl too. There was a great chemistry between them all including the guys behind the scenes, I'd say they are all genuine friends as well as colleagues.

    Sarah McInerney off Newstalk, ~I like her - good craic, nice voice and smart.

    Boxer Andy Lee seems a gentleman as does Billy Walsh the US boxing coach.

    Author Richard Ford is charming, Lisa McInerney also in keeping with my McInerney women folk being sound.

    Bernard Clark off the Nova programme on Lyric FM seems a good guy.

    Brian Cox seems like a good guy too, your wan the comediene Amy Schumer i like too.

    So there

    Roy Keane. He's a cranky bastard but I've a soft spot for him and I'd say he's sound underneath it all.

    Michael D.

    Although I reckon he's so Sound Uncle, he'd be too busy slipping you 10ps and finding matchsticks from behind your ear to drink his pint.

    oh my god that Sara Mc Inerney is a tit.. she always wants to push her own opinion of whoever she is interviewing. and when a subject is first broached she spends 10 minuets giving a big speal on what SHE thinks

    John Bishop, heard him on the radio a few weeks ago and he came across as a really decent lad, he'd be great company on a night out

    'We don't know him. There's about 300000 people in Cork'?

    Wild guess, admittedly.

    vincent browne....he's not the typical smiley tv3/rte puppet...he's just who he is. what you're seeing is vincent browne. a lot of the tv stars are likely different people backstage to the ones they portray when presenting. id say vincent is just himself. no bullshiit.
