Hear about the new Fr.Ted? American version. Why the **** do they have to remake this ?

ted=steve martin

dougal=graham norton

jack=ted danson


gotta be wind up, look at how coupling went down the pan as they just copied scripts word for word. Our sense of humour is far too subtle for our friends over hte pond.

This sadens me to her the Yanks are remaking such a classic series. Dermot Morgan must be turning in his grave imo.
