THE BRILLIANT DOMHNALL Gleeson is back on our screens this week in season two of The Paper, airing on Sky One.
The series is set in the same universe as the US version of The Office, and is based at the office of the struggling newspaper Toledo Truth Teller. Gleeson plays its new editor, Ned Sampson, a former toilet paper salesman who wants to reinvigorate the publication.
