While enjoyed the episode you really have to use fantasy for the actual venue.

Shannon Airport has a Hotel about 50 yards fro its entrance. Taxis are very easy got and top class hotel is ten mins down the road which President Bush stayed in.

She is the Sec. of State there would have been plenty of help sent by the IRish Government. Most likely she would have line of Mercedes and a police escort within 20 min straight to Dromoland Castle. The Irish Police (Garda) would have insisted on it for security reasons.

On top of the US have customs officers permanently placed in Shannon Airport, one of the very few around the world. We get cleared before we fly. So US officers could have been on hand in matter of a minute to help.

The whole show could have been done the grounds of a very picturesque castle grounds...

Also you can ring for Pizza? Would take about 30 min deliver...

I do not know what happened in this episode, because it was not aired in Turkey, although all the other episodes were.

I suspect there was negative stereotyping of the Turkish foreign minister, but I cannot form an informed opinion, having it unavailable to watch.

This very fact speaks for the current quality of democracy we have here.

Until the next elections, hopefully.

Shannon airport is not called Grainne airport, it does not have karaoke at the departures/transit lounge. The one full pint of Guinness shown on screen was an awful half-head pint! The departures/transit lounge at Shannon serves food from the bar, the only "sandwich cart" type outlet is downstairs by the budget airline gates. There's also no windows to the gates in the lounge area until you pass US customs and immigration. If you're going to pick an airport that hundreds of thousands of American servicemen and women passed through you might want have made an accurate recreation of it, not to mention the audiences overseas who have also been through that airport.

One thing I hate is how we Irish are seen abroad. Yes we are famous for Guinness but not everyone in Ireland is obsessed with alcohol!

Shannon Airport is not named 'Grainne' and the oh begorrah view Americans have is so far fetched it's a joke.

Typical US garbage and stereotyping of Oirrland!.......................................
