Overview
BriefExplanation
It's morning time, deep in the countryside, in the very southern part of Ireland; a beautiful, remote area.
We're in a small ‘Bed and Breakfast’ - so small that if you’re staying in the place, there's no escaping the owner, who is fond of a friendly chat, to say the least.
A guest, who sounds a lot like an infamous member of the cast of The Last Jedi, takes his seat at the breakfast table.
EntrySummary
As with the previous Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens, the county of Kerry and its neighbour Cork in the province of Munster were once again used as spectacular locations for The Last Jedi. The arrival of cast, crew, and all the apparatus of Hollywood had a huge impact on the predominately rural locations they visited, worked in, and stayed in.
Since the 15th Century, Cork has been known as ‘The Rebel County’, due to the many uprisings that originated there against imperial rule. So if, for example, you were a high-ranking commander of an evil intergalactic force that was hunting rebels, Cork would be a good place to look.
‘”Ah sure look it”’ (sic) is a multi-purpose colloquial expression, used in Ireland to mean, variously:
Well, I never.
That’s life.
You don’t say?
Now you’re talking.
Never mind.

FVO: Ah, sure that’s in every family.
MVO: It is her destiny to join me.
FVO: Maybe get her a gift – I love pot pourri. There’s some in the downstairs toilet –
have a whiff before you go.
