Traditionally, there has been a stereotypical image of the Irish as happy-go-lucky, loveable male rogues and flaming, red-haired, hot spirited lassies.

So what is the feckin' Irish character really like? What better way to find out than to take a gander inside at individual characters themselves? You never know, you might just recognise yourself!

As you read, please remember what the great psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud had to say about the Irish - 'This is one race of people for whom psychoanalysis is of no use whatsoever'.
