This RTE documentary explores the problems with alcohol amongst the people of the Republic of Ireland.
The Irish people are known the world over as lazy drunks - but is it a nasty stereotype or factually correct?
This documentary covers the huge problems amongst Irish children and teenagers who begin abusing alcohol at a young age. It also explores the Irish drinking 'culture' - which includes young adults, middle aged Irish citizens and elderly pensioners.
In regular international studies and surveys the people of Ireland regularly place in the top two of nations in alcohol consumption per head of population.
It seems the 'drunk Irish' stereotype is one that is actually based on concrete facts and statistical evidence.
