More than deserved!

Congratulations! He represents two things I love very much ... Star Trek and Ireland. He is also someone that represents a generation as we've seen him and grown familiar with him through so many appearances in TV and movies over the years.

His imdb page is suprisingly prolific https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0000538/ 151 roles since 1973 is a pretty damn good run.

I loved him in Layer Cake where he plays the opposite of Miles O'Brien.

My favourite role of his (outside of Trek) is as the Elvis-loving dad in The Commitments.

Call him ‘Daddy’. Everyone calls him Daddy.

Really liked him in Hell on Wheels. Surprisingly believable as Thomas Durant.

Oh no! You can’t break the laws of physic; O’Brien MUST suffer! Take it away before the universe suffers a subspace quasar tachyon inversion burst collapse to the hull or something.
