Maybe this is where he gets his hard edge.
Philly McMahon’s appearance on the Late Late Show last night was a triumph as he movingly and openly spoke about his brother’s drug addiction and death in 2012.
However the Dublin corner-back’s father also captured the attention of eagle-eyed viewers, who spotted his uncanny resemblance to Walter White from Breaking Bad.
Being Philly’s Dad he looked like “I am the one who knocks” White.
As opposed to naive, nervous school teacher White.
As we say, it did not go unnoticed.
@PhillyMcMahon is your dad @BryanCranston & is he in the audience @RTELateLateShow? #walterwhite #breakingbad pic.twitter.com/OuTChPs7iV

So, back in the green room after his interview, presumably having the craic with Johnny Logan and Bonnie Tyler while checking his notifications, McMahon decided to respond to all the Breaking Bad fans.
Yes my dad is Walter White 😂😂

Well played Philly (and your Dad).
