O'Toole Gets Honoured by Oscar...

Legendary Irish actor Peter O'Toole finally got his hands on an Oscar last night after being nominated seven times in the past - other Irish hopes were not so successful.

There were many Irish hopes at the 75th Annual Academy Awards at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood with U2, Daniel Day-Lewis and The Gangs of New York all up for nominations.

But unfortunately Irish eyes were not smiling.

Although U2 played a stirring performance on the night their song The Hands That Built America lost out to Eminem's 8 Mile theme.

Irish actor Colin Farrell's star quality shined through as he introduced the band and retorted to presenter Steve Martin's "rehab" quip.

Colin attended the show with his sister Claudine and pregnant girlfriend Kim Bordenave.

Irish based actor Daniel Day-Lewis lost the best actor category to The Pianist's Adrien Brody.

But the highlight of the night was the Lifetime Achievement Award which went to Peter O'Toole who joked, "Always a bridesmaid never a bride, my foot - I now have my own Oscar now until death do us part."

O'Toole also paid homage to actors who have now passed on, a obvious tip of his hat to the late Richard Harris who died recently.
