Up-and-coming actor Jay Duffy has revealed he learned how to act by watching his dad Keith.
The Dubliner has already been in Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks and Vikings since starting his career.
But the 17-year-old admitted he hasn’t had any training – and learned by watching his Boyzone star father on Coronation Street and in other roles.

“I haven’t recieved any training – I watched films and seen him on set, so I owe it all to him,” he said.
“He gives me great advice. He told me, ‘Be the best you can be and take rejection on the chin – what’s for you won’t pass you by’.”

However Jay insisted he has no plans to follow his dad into music.
“I love music but I’m not much of an entertainer. The only singing I do is in the shower – and it’s going to stay there,” he told the Star.
