Still Game star on course for career switch

Still Game star Ford Kiernan looks set to move into the hospitality industry after it was revealed he has been named as the director of a licensed restaurants company.

The 56-year-old plays Jack Jarvis on the BBC show, which he writes and co-stars with longtime comedy partner Greg Hemphill.

The duo have said that the forthcoming ninth series will be the final one in the show’s run, and it appears Kiernan is planning for life after Craiglang.

According to official record listings, he is the director of Adriftmorn Ltd.

When asked, the actor refused to comment on the story, although a source, speakingtoasundaynewspaper, hinted that Kiernan was looking to get involved in Glasgow’s “thriving restaurant trade”.
