Nesbitt asked to host awards ceremony

Following his witty success as host of the 2003 Irish Film and Television Awards, Ulster star James Nesbitt has been asked for a repeat dose when the gongs are handed out at The Burlington in Dublin on October 30.

Then, he collected an award of his own for the TV detective series, Murphy's Law, and he could have a double repeat since he's tipped to win the award again for Wall of Silence.
