A pretty decent list of the best and worst Irish accents can be found here. Why Tom Cruise’s accent in ‘Far and Away’ has not been included I don’t know but what I do know is that it has to be the worst Irish accent ever. Ever! And there have been some pretty bad ones.
Thanks for linking my article! I didn’t want to single out Cruise’s accent as almost everything about that film is awful.

No problem.
Yeah, you’re right: most of the film was shite.
