Donal Donnelly

An Irish actor greatly in demand on the stage, Donnelly appeared in movies too, including Richard Lester’s The Knack (1965), John Huston’s final film The Dead (1987) and Coppola’s The Godfather: Part III (1990). He starred in adaptations of contemporary classics on television and – atypically – the sitcom Yes, Honestly (1976-77).
