Cast & Crew

Noah Hennessy (Gus McDonagh)


Noah works hard, he plays hard and if you say one bad word about Jack Charlton he will knock the shit out of you. Born and bred in sunny Inchicore, Noah Hennessy is a butcher by day, a taxi driver by night and it’s his long cherished dream to open up his own night club called Noah’s Ark. With his dodgy tache, bright tracksuits and dated catchphrases’, Noah regales all his passengers with football anecdotes and the smell of manky chicken.


He’s long been the transporter of V.P.I. and he offers a solid discount. Not legit in the slightest, Noah hacks into the taxi radios around the city with his trusty receptor and rushes at illegal speeds to pick up fares before anyone else can. This man knows how to make money, just check out his bling. Don’t mention his girlfriend Roxie’s prostitute past. But do mention his 7 year old son Clint who he likes to play Saipan with.


Facts:


- Once met Paul McGrath pissing up against a wall in Donaghmede.

  1. - Has had a moustache since he was 14. It’s gotten stubblier since.

  2. -His favourite song is ‘Put ‘Em Under Pressure’ by the Irish 1990 Football Squad, followed at a distance by ‘Love Is The Drug’ by Roxy Music.

  3. - Sides with Mick McCarthy over the Saipan issue, referring to Roy Keane as a ‘Cork wanker.’

  4. - Once accidentally head butted Phil Babb in a bar in Lanzarote.

Introducing.....

Tom Moriarty (Stephen Colfer)


He’s tall, he’s handsome and he’s got a terrifyingly well groomed moustache. He is Tom Moriarty, the long term boyfriend of Isabelle Vultour, the object of Dan McGrain’s affection. Moriarty is everything that McGrain isn’t: dapper, smooth talking, charming and he wears a very nicely fitted leather jacket. 


Moriarty also has a proper respectable job that doesn’t involve stalking, he’s an architect. And when he’s not spending his days designing buildings, he’s at home with Isabelle, smoking his filtered cigarettes, sipping on fine cognac and wearing silky robes. By all accounts, he’s a cracker in the sack too. Although if you were to ask him you’d probably just get his trademark ‘Heh heh heh’. Tom Moriarty, a man so smooth you can’t help but hate him.


Facts:


  1. -Met Isabelle Vultour at a Masquerade Ball at which she was performing as a dancer. Moriarty wore a mask with a really long nose.

  2. -He is allergic to all sea food. Don’t mention the kippers.

  3. -It takes him 3 minutes 17 seconds to properly groom his moustache every morning.

  4. -He’s a Fop man.

  5. -The majority of his lady conquests have been gained through his devilish wink and wicked grin combo.
