That's a pity, I used to know his son, went on a pre-college holiday with him in a group ten years ago. RIP

Fond memories of him in Glenroe.

Thats sad, a little piece of my childhood gone

RIP big guy.....anyone know was his character still in Ros na Run lately?

Edit: Its really weird cos I was just thinkin the other day about the film Circle of Friends where his character drops dead on the street

I enjoyed his interview on "Miriam Meets" last March on Radio 1 with Mary McEvoy. I hope it will be repeated.

RIP - a great talent

RIP Mick:(

Grew up watching Mick on Glenroe like most people. Watched an interview with him a couple of years back (Late Late Show maybe) and was thrilled to see how down to earth and happy he seemed.

Sad news.
RIP Mick

I remember little bits and pieces of Glenroe but I was a bit young to take much notice but had liked him in Ros na Rún lately. Well, the little bit I got to see of it.

RIP

RIP

Met him once and was a total gent then

dlofnep · 31-08-2010 01:01PM

Absolute legend. He was like a second father to me. As soon as I heard the Glenroe theme song, I knew it was homework time.

Condolences to his family

I laughed every time at Mileys famous saying "Well Holy God"
Saw him some years ago. I was crossing the road just off Camden Street. He was on a racing bike pulled up at the lights and looked very cool wearing his John Lennon styled sunglasses.

RIP Mick Lally.
