Fans were quick to wish Eamonn well, especially after the news that he was missing his mum so terribly over the lockdown period.

"You try to be productive, you try to do things… but nobody earns any money but you do these things to [keep going]. The main thing is to keep well. I miss family, I miss not getting back to Belfast. I worry about my mum and all sorts of things like that," he told viewers during an Instagram live.

Fans also admitted their love for Tayto crisps - it's clearly a firm favourite! 'I used to post my daughter a box of Tayto cheese and onion to university in England every month,' commented one follower.

Another wrote, The best, with bread and a cuppa, nothing like it.'
