IRISH actor Ciara O'Callaghan said Jane Seymour is paving the way for women in the industry by still rocking leading roles in her 70s.

The Dubliner, best-known to many soap fans as Fair City's Yvonne Doyle, is starring opposite the 71-year-old Bond legend on RTE's new series Harry Wild.

She told the Irish Mirror: "It's wonderful to see somebody like Jane Seymour who is in her 70s playing the lead in a show like this, and it gives hope for those of us, you know, still, you know, working our way up there. Yeah, I mean, it's very inspiring, isn't it to see that. And fair play to her. It's wonderful and more of that, please.
