We're off to the little Irish town where even the soil and beer at Mickey Bourke's Hotel have been known to shine green!

Koroit, in south-west Victoria is steeped in Irish history, with a tight-knit community, legendary football team (6 wins in a row!) and impressive music and arts scene.

Damian and Kirsten uncover Koroit's fine sporting history of Ferret Racing, the community's brilliant campaign to save St Brigid's Hall and the two Popstars of the 2000s who now call Koroit home.

How well do the locals know their Irish history? How well do they know their famous soil? We test this and more!

Featured locals include:

• Rachael Houlihan - Warrnambool Standard reporter and Kirkstall local
• Adele McDonald and Barry Brody - Koroit Irish Festival
• Paddy Kelly - A "real Koroit Irishman"
• Gerard "Cactus" Kearney - Local gardener and gravedigger
• Danielle Stearman and Scott Cain (Koroit's very own Popstars!)
• Karen Foster - Mayor of the Moyne Shire + some young Mayors in the making!
• Carol McDonald - 15 minutes of Fame, Crossley
