He’s got another year before he’s pension-age, but we couldn’t let the day pass without celebrating birthday boy Pat Kenny.
The silver fox was handed a birthday card by a member of the Frontline audience last night in advance of his 65th birthday today, so we figured we better show our appreciation too.
Above you’ll find a gallery of Work Pat, Home Pat and Sexy Pat (you’re welcome), and here we’re taking a look at five reasons why Pat Kenny is a bit of a legend…
He’s hilarious when he’s mad
The Day Pat Tore Up The Toy Show Tickets is one that will live in the memories of shocked Irish television viewers for years to come. Everyone who’d happily have parted with a relative or a limb for those tickets had a newfound respect for good old Pat after that show.
He thanks his hecklers
Who else could get called an ‘arsehole’ and a ‘piece of shit’ on live television and respond with ‘thank you very much’. Polite to a fault, so he is.
Twink fancies the pants off him
If the panto queen had the chance to get her wicked mitts on any sexy stud, she’d go wild for some Kenny Live. She spilled the beans in a recent TV3 interview. We’re sure Pat was thrilled.
Gordon Ramsay’s ‘mistress’ fancies the pants off him too
In 2007 ‘Professional Mistress’ Sarah Symonds appeared on The Late Late Show, and so began some of the most awkward flirting we’ve ever seen. Symonds batted her eyelids and asked poor old Pat ‘Do you really think you can sleep with one woman for the rest of you life, Pat?’ She got nowhere, and a year later claimed she’d been having an affair with Gordon Ramsay. A poor second choice, we feel.
He talks to very famous people in the same way your clueless uncle might…
Oh dear. Oh dear.
