Mrs. Brown, created and portrayed by Irish writer and performer Brendan O'Carroll, is the matriarchal figure at the heart of the hit comedy franchise, Mrs. Brown's Boys. While initially conceived as a stage play character in the early 1990s, Mrs. Brown has since found immense success across television, film, and theatre.

Agnes Brown, her full name, is a foul-mouthed, interfering, but ultimately loving Dublin mother to six children. Known for her distinctive attire – a cardigan, housecoat, and oversized glasses – and her signature phrase, "That's nice," Agnes is a master of malapropisms and quick-witted comebacks.

O'Carroll's portrayal of Mrs. Brown is unique, as he plays the character himself, adding a distinctive comedic layer to the performance. Despite criticisms of the show's slapstick humor and perceived vulgarity, Mrs. Brown's enduring popularity demonstrates a broad appeal and a connection with audiences who appreciate her relatable family dynamics and irreverent approach to life.
