People have a certain view of Marty Morrissey. A bit bould, a bit brash and always ready for a Marty party. All true. There’s also the other Marty, the boy who landed in Co Clare from a noisy New York: the Yank, the only child, the man who makes his mammy a priority. Inside, he chats to Janice Butler about how his journey from New York to Clare to Dublin shaped the man. And he admits that critical voices and negativity are something he’s had to learn to deal with along the way.

And don’t miss our fascinating interview with Ita O’Brien, the Intimacy Coordinator on Normal People, the runaway hit of the year – or maybe the decade.
