Alan Hughes is an Irish television star. He works for TV3 and appears on ''Ireland AM''. He is the host of ''Family Fortunes''. His first break was in a television advertisement for ESB Electric Ireland in the 1980s. In the 1990s, RTÉ gave him his big break hosting prime time quiz show ''Talk About'' for 3 years. Alan is also known as Sammy Sausages, a hugely popular character in The Cheerios Panto which has been an annual smash hit since 1998. In 2009, Hughes faced a health scare when there were fears he had stomach cancer. In September 2011, Hughes engaged in a civil partnership with his partner of 18 years, Karl Broderick, a songwriter, at the Unitarian Church in St Stephen's Green, Dublin. The wedding, on the 18th anniversary of their meeting, was described by ''The Irish Times'' as the highest profile wedding since legislation permitting it to take place was brought in. Close friend Derek Mooney was his best man. The couple appeared on ''The Saturday Night Show'' soon afterwards in their first public interview together. Hughes was nominated in the Favourite Male TV Presenter category at the 2009 TV Now Awards.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alan Hughes (presenter)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
