Simon Delaney first came to my attention on the RTE television series Batchelor's Walk as one of three bachelors living together in a flat on the quays in Dublin, which ran from 2001 until 2003. Since then he has been working non stop on TV and film both here and abroad. In October 2011, Simon played an Anglo-Hiberno Lawyer in CBS's The Good Wife. In September 2012, he appeared in the series Moone Boy on Sky One and in 2013 he appeared in the Alan Partridge film Alpha Papa. I have bumped into him here and there over the years and he is always a gent. Perhaps because he started off on the amateur circuit or perhaps because he is just inherently a decent bloke he has never come across as hoity toity ( is that an expression?) and willy nilly, never been up to any hanky panky or kowtowed to the chichi types, but prefers to mix it with the hoi poloi. Okay I am being hoity toity now.
