Mrs Brown's Boys

MRS BROWN'S BOYS . British BBC TV sitcom created by and starring Irish writer and performer Brendan O'Carroll. The titular character Agnes Brown is played by O'Carroll himself, with several close friends and family members making up the rest of the cast. The show adopts an informal production style where production mistakes and tomfoolery (mostly instigated by O'Carroll) are edited into each episode. Despite being lambasted by critics, the show has become a ratings success in both Ireland, where it is set and the United Kingdom where it is recorded. It is also gaining increasingly higher ratings in Australia and Canada. The show has won numerous awards. The stage shows have continued and during February and March 2014, it toured around Australia. Since its first broadcast on RTE1 on 1st January 2011, 25 episodes have been produced across three series and seven specials over a four-year period. A feature film (Mrs Brown's Boys D'Movie) was released on 27th June 2014
