Legendary Irish singer Johnny Logan has joined the cast of new Irish comedy series Garda.
The Eurovision sensation has teamed up with Brendan Sheehan for the Irish-made show following two Gardai in Ashbourne, Co Meath.
Speaking at the exclusive premiere of the web series in Dublin hotspot Lillie’s Bordello, Johnny said he had great fun filming.
“I’d seen this clip on TV of Meath playing Dublin and one of the lads did a skit on (Lorde’s song) Royals.

“I thought it was really funny and the guys contacted my eldest sons and said ‘would you ask your dad would he play a Gard, do a cameo in it.’
“They showed me a clip of it and it seemed really funny so I said why not, so I went down,” he explained.
“Instead of the cameo, I did a couple hours filming so they got me in loads of different scenes ‘fecking this and fecking that’ so it was great fun.”
“I’m singer not an actor but it was great fun,” he admitted.
Johnny plays a  Superintendent in the show, with Rob Sheehan’s brother Brendan playing Garda O’Connor.
Created by Trevor O’Neill, the new series is already being tipped for success.
The new series will be released via Youtube over the next few weeks, with episode one airing this Sunday 22nd.
