Congratulations! He represents two things I love very much … Star Trek and Ireland. He is also someone that represents a generation as we’ve seen him and grown familiar with him through so many appearances in TV and movies over the years.

His imdb page is suprisingly prolific m.imdb.com/name/nm0000538/ 151 roles since 1973 is a pretty damn good run.

Wildly late but your comment did cause me to rewatch Intermission. What a great flick. The opening scene had stuck with me from before because it’s so well done but the brown sauce bit was amazing and overall it’s such a fun watch.
Haha. I’m not a huge brown sauce aficionado myself but HP is the gold standard in the UK and Chef is the big one in Ireland is my understanding. If there’s any British or Irish shops near you or even supermarket sections they’ll have it.
It’s like a more savoury ketchup I suppose. Bit more bite to it too. The thoughts of it in tea though. Jaysus. Just no.

Oh no! You can’t break the laws of physics; O’Brien MUST suffer! Take it away before the universe suffers a subspace quasar tachyon inversion burst collapse to the hull or something. 😉

The cheese mongrel
I loved him in Layer Cake where he plays the opposite of Miles O’Brien.
The first thing I ever saw him in was “Intermission”, so you can imagine my shock upon discovering him on Trek a couple years ago.
That was such a good movie. I must give it a rewatch.
First time I saw him outside Star Trek was in a Scarlett O’Hara TV miniseries.
Imagine my surprise when he’s driving her around in a horse and buggy: an olde time transporter chief!

Haha! That’s awesome! It’s one of my favorite movies.
If you don’t mind me asking, are you from a part of the world where brown sauce is a thing?
I’m laughing here.
Nope, and I definitely tried looking it up and getting some when I first saw it. 😂

I first saw him in Hell on Wheels.
My favourite role of his (outside of Trek) is as the Elvis-loving dad in The Commitments.
Call him ‘Daddy’. Everyone calls him Daddy.

Really liked him in Hell on Wheels. Surprisingly believable as Thomas Durant.
This was my introduction to him!

It’s about time!
