Books of condolence for Gay Byrne signed in Cork and Dublin

Politicians, broadcasters and members of the public have been visiting the Mansion House in Dublin while people queued in Cork's City Hall to sign books of condolence for Gay Byrne.

The Deputy Lord Mayor of Cork, Cllr Fergal Dennehy, who was first to sign the book in Cork, recalled how as a child he sat with his parents and watched the first Late Late Toy Show, and how in later years, as a father himself, he watched with his own children Gay Byrne present the same show with the same excitement.
