Former Mrs Brown’s Boys star Rory Cowan has been announced as Al Porter’s replacement in this year’s Olympia’s Christmas Panto.

Porter, 24, had stepped aside from his role in the Panto last week, shortly after resigning from his duties as a DJ on Today FM.

It has since been reported by RTÉ that Gogglebox star Cowan has stepped into the role for Polly and the Beanstalk, which will open on December 15 and run until January 14.

Cowan is best known for playing Rory Brown in Mrs Brown’s Boys.

The Olympia released this statement:
