A Westmeath man, Kieran Arthur Guinness, has expressed his thoughts on the Netflix series "House of Guinness", which depicts his family's story.

Kieran, a resident of Moyvore and great-great-great-great-grandson of the original Arthur Guinness, states: "It's great television; it's quite amusing – but they've got it all wrong."

They've got it all wrong. The way they portrayed my great-grandfather and his brothers – well, they got a lot wrong.

The show begins with Kieran's great-grandfather Edward, his brothers Arthur and Benjamin, and their sister Anne, after their father, Sir Benjamin Lee Guinness, bequeaths the Guinness brewery to Edward and Arthur in his will.

Author's summary: Netflix series "House of Guinness" inaccurate.
