Civil war at Mrs Brown’s Boys

-

MRS Brown’s Boys creator Brendan O’Carroll is being sued by his former co-star Gary Hollywood, it has been reported.

O’Carroll is facing claims of constructi­ve dismissal and workplace discrimina­tion following an argument over pay, according to reports.

Hollywood, 41, who reportedly quit the television sitcom earlier this year, is also taking legal action against the BBC, the reports said.

Hollywood, who played Dino

Doyle, told the Daily Star Sunday: “I feel I wasn’t being paid equally and I wasn’t being given an explanatio­n for decisions.

“When I tried to resolve it, nothing was done. I was just disregarde­d, but I won’t put up with it any more.

“I won’t be treated like that. This has gone too far. They shouldn’t do this to people. I am taking legal action. The papers have been lodged for a tribunal and the process has now started.”
