Lord of the Dance star Michael Flatley has suffered a setback in his legal row over a €1.4m disputed costs bill associated with his recent battle to keep a receiver from the door of his Cork mansion, Castlehyde.

The entertainer, in an affidavit opened before the Commercial Court last May, where he is disputing legal and receiver fees, claimed he was shocked at what he called “the blatant level” of alleged "overcharging”.
