PRESENTER Miriam O'Callaghan was one of the last to interview the late Mick Lally.
'It's so shocking and sad to hear about the death of Mick Lally,' she said. 'I had the privilege of interviewing him recently on radio – a beautiful man in every way. RIP.'
The Irish Film Board said it was 'saddened by the news that the very talented Mick Lally who starred in many Irish films had passed away.'
Michael D Higgins TD, President of the Labour Party and former Minister for Arts, Culture & Gaeltacht commented: 'Mick, a founder member of Druid Theatre made a set of ground-breaking contributions to Irish theatre on stage, television and radio. He was a consistent supporter of causes where rights were at stake, a native Irish speaker and he was at the forefront of development of the Irish language.'
