"Pauline McLynn has joined the cast of Shameless. The actress, who has previously appeared in Father Ted and Jam &amp;amp; Jerusalem, will first appear in series seven when it returns to Channel 4 later this year. McLynn will play a local Librarian called Libby, who becomes a new love interest for Frank Gallagher. Valerie Lilley is also joining the show as Libby&amp;#039;s mum, Patty. &amp;quot;We are thrilled that the acting talents of Pauline McLynn and Valerie Lilley are to be joining our already celebrated cast on the Chatsworth Estate,&amp;quot; said producer Lawrence Till. &amp;quot;This season we will continue to push the boundaries of storytelling: keeping the audience on the edge from the first frame to the last blast.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
