RIP David Kelly

Very sad to hear of the loss of actor David Kelly, who passed away at the weekend. My memories of him start at an early age, as I remember watching him in sitcom "Robin's Nest" opposite the likes of Richard O' Sullivan. And there was also his amazing work as 'O'Reilly', the inept Irish builder occasionally hired by a certain Torquay Hotel owner in "Fawlty Towers". But for me by far his best work was in the comedy film "Waking Ned" opposite the late Ian Bannen. It was a beautifully written film with a superb cast, and the chemistry between Ian and David was such a delight to watch.

RIP David.....you will be missed.
