Eric Lalor is many things - a top Irish stand-up comedian, a writer with Joe.ie, actor and father - but it is perhaps as bad guy 'Cathal Spillane' in RTE's Fair City that he is currently known best. Despite his character being on the run at the moment, it's a role he can't get too far away from as wherever he goes people are 'having a go at him' for what his character did.
Anton was hopeful that Eric's character will return to walk the streets of Carrigstown, where he played villainous hotel manager Cathal Spillane, the 'son of Flynn' who had it in for Debbie and the O'Brien family. He may well have a role in the death of popular character Michael.

As he tells Anton Savage, the blurred lines are not without their funny moments, and his trips to shopping centres in particular are not without their hairy moments.
