Alan Amsby
Alan Amsby (aka Mr Pussy) was born in London and performed a popular drag act before moving to Ireland in the late 1960s. The subject of a Gavin Friday song and a regular feature on television in the 1980s and ’90s, Mr Pussy remains one of the most outrageous characters in Irish entertainment.
In 2016, he published his memoir Mr Pussy: Before I Forget to Remember.
