He was a great entertainer.
Heās with Gay Byrne in heaven now.
A diabetic who stopped taking his insulin and lost a few toes because of it. Brendan did not mind himself.
Loved to entertain and was a regular summer visitor to The Shannon Oaks before the Comer Bros Chernobyled it. Heād always have his guitar with himā¦
His is still the best version of that great song.
Twink on with Sean OāRourke now. Weāll be hearing a lot of her over the next few days.
Iād rather not have any head off Twink.
Zip up your mickey.
Heās up there with David Frost now
RiP Noel Whelan , always liked his column & commentry . I would have thought he was more the 50 .
Saddened by this news. Always seemed an alright sort
Tubridy played Brendanās version of The Dutchman there. Sounded a bit karaoke to me. Iād take Liam Clancys version over it any day.
RIP Noel Whelan. His column was always worth a read and always cane across well on tv.
50 is no age.
Which one was it? He did a recent thing for charity where his voice was gone,
He used to do it live back in the day, did a lovely job
No idea. Iām not on Twitter.
A celebrity
Brendan Grace?
Unquestionably one of the most famous people in Ireland during the 80s
You know well who Iām talking about
A lovely death in fairness
Sad to hear about Noel Whelan. Always came accross as a decent sort despite his Fianna Fail links
