Fair City's Bryan Murray 'highly valued member of Carrigstown' as RTE stands by actor

Fair City bosses have declared Bryan Murray a “highly valued member of the Carrigstown community” – after the actor revealed he has Alzheimer’s disease.

Bryan, best-known for his role as Bob Charles on the RTE soap, was diagnosed three years ago but only decided to go public with the sad news yesterday. Now RTE bosses have said the national broadcaster will do everything they can to support Bryan and his wife and fellow star Una in the future on the show.

A spokesman added: “Bryan is a central and highly valued member of the Carrigstown community. That hasn’t changed. We love having him, and the audience love to see what Bob gets up to. We will do everything we can to support Bryan and Una into the future.”
