who is he?
Died of a heart attack apparently.
seems to be true , mad
that would be the cocaine, if he took it of course.
wrong forum, he was about as entertaining as a headache
Ive heard many a story over the years....
great then i leave it in your hands
Shocking news. RIP and condolences to all concerned
it always amused me that he hosted that operation transformation programme
Was he the Irish Hugh Hefner?
He was a very sweaty man.
That's how I'll always remember him.
Goodnight, sweet prince. May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

I think they're his daughters bickie. I may be wrong though.
I couldn't stand him as a broadcaster but its fairly shocking, he's been a mainstay of Irish radio for as long as I can remember.
Whatever you think of him 54 is no age to go at, and he has 5 kids, youngest about 10 I think.

those are his daughters
he salivated more than most too
Jaysus, one of his daoghters drew the genetic short straw, that's for sure.
RIP Gerry, you odd yet entertaining man.

I would.
RIP gerry.

I used like his night slot on R2 years ago. I'm never really shocked and rarely moved by 'famous' people dying, same to me as any death in the paper.
He was unfortunate in many ways, Moses.
As were the people who had to listen to his self-satisfied ramblings on a daily basis.
I loved his show on late night radio when he was a youngun, Fanning followed by him was a great end to the day, he became such an aulwan when he moved to the mainstream slots.
Epitaph nailed right there.
The fact that he's dead is hardly entertaining Pops
Anyone remember his zany tv show from about 20 years ago? Gringeworthy Irish tv at its very finest.....
Who were they then? Did they use him in Guantanamo or something?
maybe they had a medical condition, poor feckers.Well, seeing as his broadcast career started when we had a choice of two, count 'em, two radio stations in the whole fecking country we weren't exactly spoilt for choice of an evening.
I used to work in a shop in Lucan when I was younger and the owner had 2fm on constantly. I'd say it was the same for a lot of people who had the radio on at work.
I'd say that was Ryan's main demographic- a captive audience who had no other choice.
And aulwans who liked his childish innuendo and populist kangaroo court verdicts on the world.
You could've quit.....
Jesus, listening to 2FM at the moment would bring you to tears even if it was Osama Bin Laden that had died.
