“I’ve had the privilege of working with a brilliant cast who I’ve learnt a huge amount from, a tireless and talented crew, a visionary director, an amazing group of producers from Octagon and RTE, and in Stuart Carolan a world class writer.”
The Love/Hate star went on to say how grateful he is to all the fans of the show and said he is excited to tackle new challenges.
“I’m hugely grateful to the show and to its fans and I am equally looking forward to the new challenges ahead for me both on screen and stage,” he said.
Moving on: Tom thanked all the loyal fans
“As I perform this week in Dublin in Howie the Rookie prior to touring it to London and New York I will take wonderful memories of Love/Hate with me together with all the things I’ve learnt on the show into my future work.”
Meanwhile Laurence Kinlan who plays Elmo in the show said the rest of the cast will learn their fate in just a few weeks.
