Yes, George Mc Mahon was our Man Friday. He is best known for his character role as Mondo O'Connell in Fair City.
Born in 1984, he is keen to make his mark and head for the bright lights of London in the hope of getting gritty roles in TV dramas.
At 12 he joined the independent theatre workshop and landed his first film role at 14 in Roddy Doyle's When Brendan Met Trudy. He also had a leading role in Custer's Last Stand-Up, an RTÉ/BBC co-production that won a BAFTA award and was broadcast in over 20 countries. He also played Sam in a Disney production of Al Fall Down.
He appeared in Oliver Twist in The Gate, was Jack in Jack and the Beanstalk in Liberty Hall Theatre, and played Rick in A slice of Saturday Night and Aladdin in the Gaiety. He also spent three months touring the country with Conor MacPherson's This Lime Tree Bower, and Danny in Grease at The Rupert Guinness Theatre.
He was the youngest contestant in RTE's Celebrity Farm and won the €50,000 prize for his chosen charities - The Bubblegum Club, St Michael's House and the children's cancer fund in Our Lady's Hospital.
