An underage GAA team got quite the surprise following a challenge game on Saturday when they met Irish Hollywood star Pierce Brosnan.
The Meath native played James Bond four times, starring in GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough and Die Another Day.
He is currently in Co Donegal filming Four Letters of Love and has been spotted mixing with locals near Letterkenny and Downings.

St Mary’s, Faughanvale U12 girls made the journey from Derry to Donegal to face Downings in a friendly on Saturday and managed to meet Brosnan after the game.
The club posted photos of the team with Brosnan on their Facebook page and it was an afternoon the players won’t forget in a hurry.
Brosnan, who also starred in Mrs Doubtfire and Mamma Mia, is working on the Irish romantic drama film Four Letters of Love, part of which was also shot on the north coast of Antrim earlier this year.
The film also stars Helen Bonhom Carter and Gabriel Byrne and is based on the novel by Niall Williams.
