Tommy Tiernan
Tommy Tiernan is a stand-up comedian, actor, writer and extraordinary talk show host, extraordinary because on The Tommy Tiernan Show on RTE he doesn\u2019t know who his guest is until they walk on, there\u2019s no script or preparation, so the conversation can go anywhere, and it does!
As a comedian, he\u2019s won the big award and even though his sense of humour has on occasions been controversial, he maintains there\u2019s never malice intended.
Tommy also has a podcast and is famous for playing Da Gerry in Derry Girls

Inherited: Amhr\xe1n na bhFiann, the national anthem of the Republic of Ireland.\nPassed on: Maka Hannya Haramitta
