Rory Cowan has opened up about his Fair City career, revealing that it is one of his favourite roles to date.
The former Mrs Brown’s Boys actor took up the role of John Bosco on the RTE soap back in September, and with the longevity of the character in doubt, Rory says he doesn’t know how things will pan out this side of the festive season.
“John Bosco was a role I was never going to turn down,” Rory told VIP Magazine.
“It was very close to my real life over the last five years. My mother had dementia and I and my brother and sister were involved in caring for her to make her last years as comfortable as possible. From a dementia awareness perspective, this story line is massive.”
Speaking about the future of his character, ‘Bosco’, Rory says he is loving being on set on one of Ireland’s biggest soaps.
“I don’t know how long I’ll be in Carrigstown, but I’ll hang around for as long as possible!” he revealed.
“If the story line comes to a conclusion then I’ll no doubt be going. But it’s a nice gig to get. The cast are genuinely lovely and I find myself laughing more than I have in years.
“So I’m hoping I’m here until I drop. But then again I could be gone by Christmas.”
