    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.

    He is.

    I've never met him personally, but know a few media types, and John Creedon is meant to be an absolute gent, and a funny fúcker to boot, as the OP suggested. His music show is also the best thing on Irish radio.

    Kevin Kilbane is a sound man, and likes his few pints. Always had loads of time for fans when travelling with the Irish squad. Top lad.

    Marty Morrissey seems like a sound one. Doesn't take his 'sex symbol' thing seriously at all, and has a great self-deprecating sense of humour.

    I get the impression that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is a sound skin and I'd love to have a pint with him!

    Met him in a pub in Dingle one night and he is just lovely alright. A real gentleman to his fingertips, just so amiable and friendly and nothing put on.

    I reckon Jeff Bridges would be sound. I know he will not be like The Dude, but still...

    He is quite!

    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.

    Vincent Browne is a gentleman.

    I agree about John Creedon and Michael Portillo too. They'd be fantastic travel companions. I also have a soft spot for Roy Keane and respect him for his grumpy honesty.

    David Gilmour seems a gent.

    And Keanu Reeves is often noted in the press having done a kindly act.

    I will also row in behind John Creedon, seems a decent sort and he has the best music show on Irish radio.

    David Lynch apparently is really nice. Zooey Deschanel, Ellen DeGeneres. I'd say Ian Hislop is nice to talk to.

    Colin Farrell is probably sound.

    Roger Federer is by all accounts a real gent and has great time for fans, even sticking around late at night.
