I think he's great. seems a real down to earth character. Watched a program regularly with him, Rory mcGrath and Griff Rhys Jones called Three men in a Boat http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Men_in_a_Boat_(TV_Series) I would advise all to watch it, it's very good and showed just how intelligent and nice all 3 of these men are.

His full name is Dara O'Briain Eyyyyyyyyyyymmm.

He is obviously a very clever and educated bloke, I like how he promotes engineering and science, seems genuinely clued up.

I pronounce it "Dara obreen" how he introduces himself

One of his stand up gigs is on iplayer at the moment. Watched half of it on sunday, and it's very funny, especially the bit about Dr Bear!

Is it only "'O' Breen'" in an irish accent though?

Eh? Thierry Henry is only 'On-ree' in a French accent but that's still how we pronounce it in England, expect for when people think they are being funny by calling him Terry Hen-ree.

I just missed out on seeing him live a few weeks ago, was gutted.

Great comedian
