    Sandra Bullock & Dylan Moran, love both of them.

    Michael D.

    Although I reckon he's so Sound Uncle, he'd be too busy slipping you 10ps and finding matchsticks from behind your ear to drink his pint.

    oh my god that Sara Mc Inerney is a tit.. she always wants to push her own opinion of whoever she is interviewing. and when a subject is first broached she spends 10 minuets giving a big speal on what SHE thinks


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,639 ✭✭✭andekwarhola


    Was at a couple of Q&As that Michael Fassbender has done for films and he seemed sound.

    A family member met him and said he was a lovely fella.

    Ian Dempsey. I'd love a cuppa with him!

    John Bishop, heard him on the radio a few weeks ago and he came across as a really decent lad, he'd be great company on a night out

    'We don't know him. There's about 300000 people in Cork'?

    Wild guess, admittedly.

    Drew Barrymore would be another one for me.

    vincent browne....he's not the typical smiley tv3/rte puppet...he's just who he is. what you're seeing is vincent browne. a lot of the tv stars are likely different people backstage to the ones they portray when presenting. id say vincent is just himself. no bullshiit.

    He is.

    I've never met him personally, but know a few media types, and John Creedon is meant to be an absolute gent, and a funny fúcker to boot, as the OP suggested. His music show is also the best thing on Irish radio.

    Kevin Kilbane is a sound man, and likes his few pints. Always had loads of time for fans when travelling with the Irish squad. Top lad.

    Marty Morrissey seems like a sound one. Doesn't take his 'sex symbol' thing seriously at all, and has a great self-deprecating sense of humour.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭reap-a-rat


    I get the impression that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is a sound skin and I'd love to have a pint with him!

    Met him in a pub in Dingle one night and he is just lovely alright. A real gentleman to his fingertips, just so amiable and friendly and nothing put on.

    Vincent Browne is a gentleman.

    I agree about John Creedon and Michael Portillo too. They'd be fantastic travel companions. I also have a soft spot for Roy Keane and respect him for his grumpy honesty.

    David Lynch apparently is really nice. Zooey Deschanel, Ellen DeGeneres. I'd say Ian Hislop is nice to talk to.

    Colin Farrell is probably sound.

    Harrison Ford, just wouldn't wanna be on the plane he flies.

    Also Kurt Russell, would love to hang out with him.
    My cousin from NY happened to sit beside Harrison on a domestic flight years ago.
    Apparently Harrison was lovely company for the flight.

    I think she is Ireland's answer to Drew Barrymore.


    Oh.... and Drew Barrymore.

    I'm a big United fan and I was on the same flight as Evra once (easyjet if you believe it). He seemed a bit grumpy but signed a few autographs for some youngsters on board.

    Nicolas Anelka on the other hand, strolled on with his massive Beats or whatever brand headphones and glasses and ignored everyone and anyone, with his trademark pout on his face...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    Peter Crouch. Alweays comes across as a decent bloke in interviews. Loved his reply when he was once asked what would he have been if he wasn't a professional footballer; "A virgin", came the reply. Nice one Crouchie, us fugly fellas have to stick together.

    This the second time someone has said this guy.

    He went on the sauce in Killarney and damaged cars. After getting into a row in the INEC and storming off the stage, leaving the audience pretty annoyed.

    Where does he get his reputation as being sound? It seems very undeserved. Only an arsehole damages parked cars.

    Maybe if you ignore all the sexual assault charges, cover up, ruining of the womans life, denying it etc.
