THIS WEEK BROUGHT us the news that Daniel O’Donnell will be taking a break from music.
The singer revealed that he will be taking time off the road until at least 2016, as soon as he finishes the Gertrude Byrne Caribbean cruise.
In tribute, we’ve compiled some of his greatest woollen (and acrylic!) hits. In reverse order, Daniel O’Donnell’s top 8 jumpers are:
8. Classic black V-neck, offset by camel coat and rolling Irish hills
7. Modest crew-neck combo with stripey jacket and leopardprint bedclothes
6. Bold, frisky scarlet with relaxed open collar that says “Yeah, I’m up for whatever!”
5. Brown-on-brown statement piece. Special occasions only.
4. Lemon-yellow V-neck, almost dangerously low-cut. Smart safety move with the t-shirt Daniel! You’ve done this before!
3. Classic scratchy Aran. Still feels as relevant now as it did when Big Tom wore it.
2. Slimming black for driving. Eyes on the road Daniel – that stone-cold classic jumper is just a distraction!
1. And finally, ‘The Big Red’ with older lady detailing
