Title: auto pilot
Post by: john m on October 04, 2018, 10:47:44 am
picked up some non descript actor going out to Montrose he tells me that driverless cars will put me out of work so I  ask him does he know Bart Simpson he says yes so I  ask how does he feel about being replaced by a cartoon actor .

Everyday's a school day........brought him from the bowels of Foxrock/Leopardstown to RTE on several occasions. Great company if you can see past the bluff and bluster. Remember your man from Fair city, the Dub with grey hair, telling me "Larry died"....he was on about Olivier.........told Murray that and he broke his bollicks laughing and never forgot it.

He acts on Fair City like he's on stage,every word and action seems overacted,but a good thespian.....he was buried under a patio in Brookside in his career,

Bela Doyle(Jim Bartley),i presume you're talking about,think he's been in Fair City since it started,used to see him cycling around Dublin back in the day,had his hips replaced,can hardly walk on the set these days...always seems to be in the sitting position for his parts.

It's SO like real life, where everyone speaks in turn - and never unless the camera is on them.
Oh, and a sharp intake of breath  before delivering a monologue.
Very RTE. 8)

Yeah.....not my story really but I enjoyed repeating it...security man in RTE told me yonks ago. Your man still lives in Knocklyon, I think. Saw him in a couple of boozers over the yrs. Murray was good with Peter Bowles in The Irish R.M..think that's what it was....Niall ToibĂ­n too.
