At the age of two, Seamus's father lost him in a poker game, six months later, Seamus won himself back. "Determined to make his mark on the world, Seamus stowed away on a Ryanair flight to Edinburgh, nestled among bags of Taytos and dreams of dartboard domination. Upon landing, he quickly showcased his unmatched skills at cards, pool, and darts in all of the city's best old man pubs.

With his quick wit and banter, he quickly became Longford's best export since… eh… Pat the Baker… and your one Maura from Love Island." So, at least that's cleared up.
