Video: Colin Farrell talks about the Yes vote, Gerry Adams and Panti Bliss on Jimmy Fallon

An issue that's close to his heart

An issue that’s close to his heart.

Colin Farrell was on Jimmy Fallon last night to plug the new season of True Detective which we can bloody wait for by the way.

The Dubliner somehow ended up chatting about Elmo from Sesame Street and that in turn led to Fallon bringing up the marriage equality referendum in Ireland.

It’s almost been a month since we made history, and here’s Farrell chatting about what it meant to him and our country.
