National Identity (Irish)
This short clip, takes down the majority of Irish stereotypes. This includes the idea that all the Irish eat is Haggis and all they'll drink is Guiness, and for breakfast they'll obviously be having a bowl of Lucky Charms. The irish are not particularly violent as some stereotypes would argue and they don't necessarily where aran jumpers or use the 'gift of the gab' They are certainly not potato peeling, guiness gulping, harp playing leprechauns called Paddy.
The TV show Mrs Brown's Boys conforms heavily to the irish stereotypes.
