Tom was a 31-year-old farmer and computer engineer from Omagh, County Tyrone with his parents on their farm. Like a lot of other contestants, he comes from a large family.

Tom loves pets and has two dogs, one called 'Dog', the other not, and three cats, one called 'Cat' He finds dogs good companions in times of stress but is not sure why he has the cats.
Has a tattoo of a devil on his left shoulder blade and says he has a girlfriend but says he is 'open to offers'. We think he wouldn't have a girlfriend for long after that.
Tom's ambition is to live to the age of 120 and still be mentally and physically sound. Would like to be married in 10 years time with children, and running his own business from home.
He likes Gaelic football, vegetables, chocolate, flirting with strangers, traditional Irish music, and Bryan Adams. He dislikes beetroot, liver, custard, shaving, getting up, Laziness in others, rudeness, self-appointed experts, Rap music, and Jungle.

Tom's good traits are determination, an ability to get away with things, sensitivity, and loveable. He is organized and likes to be the leader. his bad traits are still thinking he's 18, non-committal, and lateness.
According to one of his sisters has the potential to be stroppy and he can be quite intolerant of others. He's a good team player, a good listener, and charming to girls, but is "definitely one of the lads when he's out with his mates."
