being irish myself your post caught my eye . off the top of my head
the only other irish player of the game i can think of is pauline mc
glynn .i'll have a look through thre cast list on deans web site and
see if thier are any more . graham norton is from ireland too county
cork to be exact but as you say he has lost his accent . the same
applies to henry kelly . i have also found dara o brian . thats seems
to be it .

for your scottish husband , we well as fred mc auley i see the name
craig fergusson on the cast list too , as well as those you already
mention .

i hope that helps !
cheers
Linda
