PDA Kirwan was a stalwart of all the films made by Whiskerino. He appeared in 14 features and worked behind the camera on a further 4 pictures. A driven perfectionist he proved a real asset to Whiskerino. |

| Already an established actor he joined the Whiskerino Productions cast early in the 1930s, he leant some well needed respectability to the studio. Kirwan had toured Britain for some ten years learning his craft as part of the Winterbourne House players. |

Confirmed details of his film work prior to joining Whiskerino productions are sketchy at best. In his unpublished autobiography he claims to have starred in 11 films before moving to the studio, starting his film career as 3rd Urchin in an Amistone quickie. With the immortal words "Spare a tanner. . ." he started a cinematic journey that would lead him down a path of elation and frustration. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

He is perhaps most strongly associated with his memorable portrayal of the Bar Keep at the Transelvation Arms Inn. This was a role he played a total of 12 times (in 10 films and twice on the stage). He was also Egor, one half of the memorable double act from the Horror Canon. |
