welcome to the tenth of our Fuzion Friday series, where we put 21 devilishly difficult questions to a team member, giving you an insight that Freud would be proud of.
Next up is Tokyo and Jesus fan…..Ciarán!
- Tell us something about you that nobody else in the team might know.
Once danced in front of Heidi Klum & Anne Hathaway on a movie. Was on Blackboard Jungle.
- What film have you watched more than five times?
Intouchables. Die Hard. Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (original). Beetlejuice.
- What work are you most proud of in the past year?
Just helping everyone in the team to be the best human they can.
- Dream job?
Donald Trump speechwriter.
- Favourite brand? – Why?
Apple. Just pristine in everything they do. (Apart from ports & cables)
- Favourite Holiday Destination?
Japan. Everyone should go once before they die a slow, miserable death.
- Best lesson from your career?
Never be afraid to ask what might seem like a stupid question.
- Eurovision or World Cup?
Scratch my last answer, sometimes you should be afraid to ask a stupid question!
- Who is the joker on the team?
Like, Michelle.
- Recommend a podcast.
Bill Burr. Revisionist History (first season). Winds of Change.
- Reality shows – Love or Hate?
Hate. Pity. Despair.
- Dinner party with 3 people – dead or alive – who do you invite?
The famous Jesus Christ and his two parents (we think), Mary and Joseph. They’d have *some* great chats.
“Dad, why are the lads in class saying mam’s a virgin?”
“Oh Jesus, I mean, son…ah…sure lookit. More wine, Mary?”
- If you could be anywhere in the world – where would you be & what would you do?
Japan. Riding Bullet trains all day long, and eating mad-flavoured Kit Kats with folks dressed like Super Mario characters.
- Who is your role model?
Nanda – my grandfather, was my idol. Gave me a love of cycling and I’m not sure I’ve ever been happier than when he was on the side of the road at a race I won.
- What was your first job?
Roches Stores. Not sure what I was meant to be doing.
- Death Row meal?
Eddie Rocket’s burger with garlic cheese & cyanide chips.
- Favourite book?
Impossible to choose. But I wish I could read The Long Walk (Stephen King) and Going Solo (Roald Dahl) again – for the first time.
- Your a grammar nazi oar not?
Ja!
- First album you bought or downloaded?
Introducing the Hardline According to Terence Trent D’Arby.
- Work from home – or office?
If ‘home’ was in Dubai or Tokyo, then home – but miss the camaraderie of an office.
- Most memorable ad slogans – why?
“‘Snap! Crackle! Pop!’” Almost 90 years old, but still amazingly sharp.
