Room to Improve's Dermot Bannon has paid tribute to his colleague Karl Cullen, who has passed away aged 30. Karl was killed in a car crash on Sunday, which took place in Clonhaston in Co. Wexford. His car collided with a ditch and he was subsequently pronounced dead. Gardaí are appealing to any witnesses to the collision, which happened at 7:30pm on the R744, to get in touch.

Dermot Bannon took to Instagram to share the news of Mr Culllen's death. He wrote: "Devastated to hear that kind, gentle, unbelievably talented Karl Cullen has tragically died so young, he played a huge part on Room to Improve over the years creating some of the most beautiful joinery, a fantastic problem solver, enthusiastic collaborator and an all round wonderful soul." https://www.instagram.com/p/CeRhuj5MBg4/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=6293bb99-2674-4387-a810-6cc36bc9346c He added: "Heartbroken for his parents Karl and Annette, his Brothers Darren and Diarmuid and all his family."
