Northern Ireland’s genial chat show king shares time with a host of famous names from across the world of entertainment, sport and politics.
From 1989 to 2005 there was one unrivalled claimant to the crown of Northern Ireland’s favourite talk show host – UTV’s Gerry Kelly. Kelly’s easy-going interviewing style and his always-eclectic mix of guests and musical acts ensured that his show was one of the weekly jewels in the crown of Ulster Television’s schedules.
This collection of highlights from the series includes his talks with famous faces from Northern Ireland such as George Best, Dame Mary Peters and a young Rory McIlroy, who spoke to Gerry when he was just a primary school child embarking upon his golfing career. Also included are longer chats from the ‘Gerry Meets...’ series where he sits down to talk with Hollywood legends such as Maureen O’Hara and Robin Williams. Always with a friendly twinkle in his eye, Gerry demonstrates how he became one of Northern Ireland’s most beloved television personalities.
