Tommy Tiernan
The stand-up comedian, actor and talk show host on the music that has shaped his life.
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鈥檛 know who his guest is until they walk on, there鈥檚 no script or preparation, so the conversation can go anywhere, and it does!
As a comedian, he鈥檚 won the big award and even though his sense of humour has on occasions been controversial, he maintains there鈥檚 never malice intended.
Tommy also has a podcast and is famous for playing Da Gerry in Derry Girls
Although he was born in Ireland he had a peripatetic early life as you鈥檒l hear in his Inheritance Tracks...
Inherited: Amhr谩n na bhFiann, the national anthem of the Republic of Ireland.
Passed on: Maka Hannya Haramitta
Producer: Glyn Tansley
