The Six One news on RTÉ One yesterday was uplifting and lighthearted, unlike most days.
Only joking. It was the usual depressing mix of economy horror stories, 86 year old rape victims and violent crime.
One thing I couldn’t tear my eyes away from was David Davin Power. My Wigdar was tingling at an alarming rate every time he swayed his head. I need to see him from the back to be sure, but he’s shot straight up to the top of my wigwatch charts, shoving Brian Lenihan into second place.
Those people ambling by in the background were not aware at the time, but they were painfully close to a heroic attempt at clearing up one of Ireland’s sexiest mysteries. Walk over casually, pretend to chat on a mobile phone, then when you are near make a dash for it and whip the fucking thing off his head and throw it into the air. Civil disobedience at its best.


great vid, I saw him once in dublin airport. Never thought it was a wig but now you have rocked my world and I am doubting myself.
Brilliant sir. I imagine when you saw him you immediately turned gay. He’s quite the looker.
Hilarious. I know David, I’ll be seeing him tonight I think. Hate to spoil your fun, but it’s real hair, mad looking I agree, but definitely real. Might just give it a tug tonight, just in case.
