Aidan Gillen plays former Taoiseach Charles Haughey, with Tom Vaughan-Lawlor portraying his right hand man PJ Mara.
You don’t need to be an expert in Irish politics to look forward to this one, with RTÉ revealing that ‘Charlie’ – their new dramatisation of the life of Ireland’s most notorious leader – will begin on Sunday January 4th.
All the hits are played – from ‘living beyond our means’ to the arms trial, the affair with Terry Keane and the general air of skullduggery that surrounded Haughey and his cronies.
Great craic, in other words.
