The Ballyk Kidnapper

Includes Characters from Ballykissangel and The Bill

Oonagh Dooley and Orla O'Connell were stood behind the bar at Fitzgerald's pub in Ballykissangel, talking to Niamh Egan about her and her husband, the local Gard Ambrose. "Are you sure there's no way you can sort it out?" Orla was saying. Niamh shrugged and stared blankly out the window at the car pulling up outside. Orla noticed the car too, "who's that?" she asked Oonagh. Oonagh squinted to look at the car. "English plates....must be the guests we have booked." She walked upstairs to find her husband Paul. She found him in the guest room waking the wokers, Donal and Liam who had fallen asleep on the job, again! "Paul?" Paul turned round to face his wife, "yeah?" Oonagh nodded towards the bar, "guests are here," she told him. "Great!" Mr Dooley rushed down the stairs and into the bar just in time to see a happy, glowing young girl, around 6 bounce through the door and shout, "hi everybody!!!" Orla smiled at her and nudged Oonagh who was now standing next to her again. The little girl's father followed her in and shook his head goodnaturedly at his daughter. "Ouiet, Niamh ya monkey!" Niamh Egan broke out of her trance and looked at Orla. "Huh? what?" she asked confused. "Not you," Orla explained, "that lil chick's name must be Niamh too, am I right gorgeous girl?" Little Niamh beamed "YEP! Niamh Kristen Taviner!" She turned to her dad, "Daddy, I like her!" Niamh said as she pointed to Orla.

Paul walked over to them and held out his hand, "Paul Dooley." he intoduced himself, "and this is my wife Oonagh and most of the gang, Orla, Donal, Liam, Brendan, Fr Aiden... you'll meet the rest soon!" "Des Taviner, nice to meet ya, this is my daughter Niamh, and my wife Sheelagh's just outside talking to...someone," Des shook Pauls hand. Oonagh looked out the window and saw Siobhan, the vet talking to a short woman with long golden hair. She excused herself and walked outside and over to the two. Siobhan looked over at her, "oh hey Oonagh!" Oonagh smiled at Siobhan and then at Sheelagh. "Hi, you must me Mrs Taviner?" she said kindly. Sheelagh smiled back at Oonagh, "Call me Sheelagh," she said sweetly. "Okay Sheelagh! I'm Oonagh, my husband Paul and I run Fitzgerald's...you have a gorgeous daughter!" Shee grinned cheekily, "yep, she gets that from me!"
