Well, this is ‘Bang Bang’, real name Thomas Dudley, in a rarely seen photo from a collection of old Dublin images newly uploaded to Facebook by Jim Gibson.

Bang Bang’s lovability was earned by going up to people in tram queues and shouting: “BANG BANG”.

And if that didn’t make you literally poo your underwear he would then point his gnarled finger a Chubb lock key to your temple like a gun and cackle soundlessly.

Then he was considered a harmless lunatic.

Today he would be nominated as the Fianna Fail presidential candidate.
