Best known as the star of RTE’s The Panel and BBC’s Blame Game, Irish comedian Neil Delamere performs his current show, Bookmarks.
Seeing your photograph (along with those of 2 Ireland Rugby players, a national broadcaster and an elite athlete) on your university bookmark is food for thought. But this is what happened to our intrepid comedian, Neil Delamere.
Trinity College has Oscar Wilde, Dublin City University has Neil Delamere. Hmmm. It was a sign. Life is just a series of bookmarks – the events that highlight how far we’ve come and how far we’ve left to go. They could be anything, weddings, funerals, charges being dropped even facing your fears (don’t).
Neil considers these markers as well as how his photo appeared on the thing in the first place. Time to explore.
Oh yeah, we also get to find out how long Neil will live.
The unstoppable star of Irish comedy, Neil Delamere is one of the top headline acts on the international circuit. Having performed on five continents, he staged his debut solo show in the Edinburgh festival in 2004.
Neil featured in both series of Liffey Laughs, RTE's stand-up show in 2005 and 2006 as well as The World Stands Up for Paramount. He has also hosted RTE's coverage of the Just for Laughs Festival in Montreal for two years in a row.
