  Mrs Brown's Boys star Brendan O’Carroll has ­revealed that Scots actor Gary Hollywood was “family” and we “miss him”. The 66-year-old from Dublin, who writes the show and plays potty-mouthed matriarch Agnes Brown in the award-winning BBC1 sitcom, still seems shellshocked by the ­Glaswegian’s exit from the cast after working with him for 20 years. Brendan, who is bringing Mrs Brown’s Boys D’Live Show to Glasgow and Edinburgh next month, said: “He was a great actor and we miss him. “He used to call me ‘Father’. He was part of the family and we haven’t spoken since and haven’t heard a word from him since.”   Ex-High Road star Gary was doing panto in 2000 when he met Brendan and joined the Mrs Brown cast. The Scot was in the Irish DVD versions of the sitcom in 2004 and when it was taken up by the BBC in 2011. Filmed in Glasgow, it became a huge hit, has won five BAFTAs and is still a Christmas mainstay. The cast also starred in chat show All Round to Mrs Brown’s. B...

A brawl reportedly broke out at Mrs Brown’s Boys’ D’Tour live show at Glasgow’s Hydro arena at the weekend. Fans of Dublin comedian Brendan O’Carroll’s hit spin-off from the successful BBC One sitcom complained of a “10 minute punch-up” soon after the start of Saturday’s performance. The performance had to be temporarily halted while security quickly moved in to restore calm, allowing the gig to continue.   One wrote on the MBB Facebook page afterwards: “Dont know what was funnier the actual performance or the fact the show stopped whilst the fight was happening in the crowd. Another said they “thought it was part of the show”. “Great show, except from the 'extras' that had to be heard in the audience,” wrote another. Another said: “Someone was fighting lol and then one behind me was very loud and drunk. Ended up crying. But the security were fantastic and took her outside untill she calmed down and got back in lol.”
