Dublin native Colin Farrell has often spoke about how his first TV appearance as Danny Byrne on series Ballykissangel was the catalyst for his stellar acting career that was to follow.
The In Bruges star is well known for his roles in movies such as Minority Report, The Batman and most recently his first Oscar nomination for best actor in The Banshees of Inisherin, however none of this would have been possible if it wasn't for his debut role on rural Irish TV series Ballykissangel.
Farrell told The Sun in 2015 that it: "was one of the f*****g greatest things" he ever did.
