Who the hell told this guy he could act? He's more wooden than Brains in Thunderbirds! If I didn't know that he was Irish, I would have sworn that his accent was put on (and not very well either!)

He's just another reason why I find myself watching Corrination Street less and less these days.

Disagree about his accent. It is a thick north Dublin brogue and is exactly as you would hear it in Ballymun. Agree about the acting though. The acting in the Hector's House ads is better.

I reckon they should've given the part to the "Who Gives You Extra? WHo Who We Do!" bloke. A much better actor then Teef Duffy

You're probably right - it's probably more his delivery that comes across as false than his actual accent. I love the Irish accent (or should I say accentS) generally - somehow when he's talking, it doesn't sound quite so good!!

It is like asking why bring Adam Rickett back to Corrie.

Same answer

You'd have thought that one of the residents would notice than a member of Boyzone had moved in to the area.

Lol thats true. There was a rumour that Boyzone were getting back together, so maybe he wont be around for much longer.

Wonder how long it will be before they find an excuse for him to sing in the Rovers.

Dev's acting is just as bad! Could somebody please tell him to change the tone of his voice now and then, rather than just getting louder!

Amen! He also always plays the same kind of characters. I say bring Richard back from the dead and let him run amock and kill all the bad actors... oops, looks like there won't be THAT many people left in soap-land

Yes, I'm sure that Boyzone must have been played on the radio at least once in the past in the cafe or the rovers. So surely thats a little strange.....who do the characters think was in Boyzone?

Have to say I agree with all the sentiments posted here. His cannot act and his delivery is wooden to the point of embarrasing. Let's hope they kill him off with the equally wooden crap actor, Adam Rickett. The sooner the better, if you ask me
