Blackie Connors Blackout

    I can't find any pictures of Blackie Connors on the internets or the google.

    There are pictures of Miley, Biddy, Dinny, Dick Moran etc, but none of Blackie Connors.

    I even found this fella. I think it's Blackie's cousin, Johnny Connors.

    Is anyone else currently experiencing the same outage?
    Are Blackie Connors pictures down for everyone else?

    Blackie Connors, was he the bull-horse of a man after John Assumpta O'Hallaron's leg of lamb that night in Horse and Hound?

    I choose to appropriate this at face value.
    You are very very welcome my good man! :D


    It's so depressing, I think because it used to be on Sunday night's and that meant the school week was almost upon us.

    What became of Batty from the Riordans?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept



    He's obscured by credits at 25 seconds and is turning away at 1:06.

    He's very elusive.

    One of my favourite lines from any soap opera was spouted by Blackie Connors. Upon hearing of Johnny's missing dining table, presumed stolen by another group of travellers, Blackie claims that it's ''probably down in Rathkeale by now'' :D Classic!

    Well, Biddy and Miley were characters in Glenroe, so I'm assuming Blackie was too

    if i recall correctly, his mammy on the show used to call him that, and everyone else called him Blackie. there is a serious lack of pics online though, weird

    It's clearly a conspiracy.

    Blackie Connor's bedroom in the show is actually my bedroom now,true story! I think I should never work again and live off the fame and glory.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    You share a bedroom with Blackie?
    That's hardcore.

    Pics of you in your bedroom with your arm around Blackie/GTFO!
