Her Hero Of The Week Is…

Ever wondered where all the good men are gone? Or where are all the gods? So have we. It’s that time of the week again, ladies… This week was probably the easiest choice to date, we’re delighted to honour #HerHeroOfTheWeek to the legend, Joe Brolly. The RTE GAA pundit hit our screens this week in a touching documentary ‘Perfect Match’, profiling a worthy cause very close to the heart of this extraordinary Derry man, while pulling the heart-stings of the entire country. The programme documents Brolly's ‘Opt For Life’ campaign, following the story of the television pundit donating a kidney to a man, Shane Finnegan, whom he barely knew. The operation itself, in the end, was a failure,  the bond between the two men however, was not. The programme documents the tireless work both men continue to carry out in order to raise awareness for organ donation throughout the country, as father-of-three Finnegan seeks a new kidney that would dramatically change his life. 'Perfect Match' showcases all of the characteristics which have made Brolly such a charismatic, and at times, a controversial TV pundit. His passion, honesty, wit, charm and zest for life, not to mention his wish to change the lives of others, makes him a hero amongst men. If you happened to miss it, the programme is available to watch through the RTE Player, here is a little sneak peek of what to expect. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd6F4SKdVu8   Do you know a HERO? Ladies, every week we will select one complete gentleman to be Her Hero, not without your help of course… How can you help? Send an image of someone you think is an absolute hero, and if we agree, your entry will get a very deserving and coveted place. He doesn’t have to be fast, he doesn’t necessarily have to be brave, or have ever been involved in a fight in his life… but it may help. The picture can be anything, a nice gesture from your boyfriend (providing you have one), a text from your Dad or friend, or even someone lovely you happen to meet on the street. Surprise us! Send your potential Her Heroes to [email protected] or use the #HerHeroOfTheWeek on Twitter. Until next week ladies… We’ll have this Bonnie Tyler classic on repeat.
