Marcus has spent his whole life telling any one who will listen about the fact that all his family hails from Ireland. Dorothy, on the other hand, only gets to the Irish leg of the family in the "and others" category. So, who has the castle? You guessed it. These three shots are of the home the Talbot occupied from 1185 to 1975. Malahide Castle. There are also streets and bridges named for the Talbots, and a push to make one of them a saint.
