Dara O'Briain and Laura Whitmore are from the town next to mine. Damien Rice used to live in my hometown(I'm not sure if he still does). The guy who played Father Jack used to live there, as did Ronnie Drew.

Nicky Byrne from Westlife grew up across the road from my mum and Jedward aren't too far away from me either, they went to school with friends of mine. Though Chris O'Dowd went to the same uni I did(he's from the other side of the country though).

Our actual town is pretty new still, was only a couple of farms up until about 30 year ago or less, so not that many living too close.

Next door neighbour was Rhys Williams, Boro and Australian footballer.
Round the corner, Juninhio(sp) Brazillian and one time Boro player.
Numerous other footballers.
The singer from Black Lace/Smokie that died in the coach crash.

Outside of our actual little town/village there are too many to mention going back years.

Cillian Murphy and Roy Keane.

I know a few people who worked with Murphy when he was starting out with Corcadorca. Roy Keane's brother - an altogether miserable bastard - drinks at a bar we play pool in sometimes. He's the full on buy-him-a-pint-and-he'll-tell-you-about-Roy cliche.

There's Rory Gallagher, obviously.
