00:00A new documentary which is already creating a huge buzz
00:03which is basically about people who are older than Ireland.
00:07The filmmakers interviewed 30 Irish people who are over 100 years old
00:11that's guaranteed to make you laugh and cry.
00:13What do you think of modern Irish girls?
00:15I think there's some beautiful girls in Ireland.
00:18God.
00:19If they left themselves alone.
00:21Your legs get a bit dodgy sideways when you're walking.
00:27I go all right but slow.
00:30And of course if you run into me it's my fault even though it's yours.
00:35You say that whole bastard shouldn't be on the road.
00:38And so when we got electricity we didn't know where we were.
00:41Shining all over the place.
00:43The washing machine is the best thing they ever come out.
00:46There's no scarcity of boyfriends.
00:48Well I had loads of them.
00:50I went through the window when I wanted to go to a dance.
00:53We had our moments of romance and all the rest of it.
00:57He said will you marry me?
00:59And I said of course I will.
01:01It was a foregone conclusion.
01:03Actually I drank about him one night.
01:06And I was so delighted to see him that I flew at him and put my arms around him.
01:11And that was my dream.
01:13I don't think I ever fell in love.
01:15I never lose a night's sleep over a fella.
01:18The meaning of life.
01:20How in the name of God did I get here?
01:23Everyone should die at 70.
01:28Indeed.
01:29Why wouldn't Eve.
01:31Wait, boo.
