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.

 

USA reafirms its claim to be the biggest re-cyling plant for sh*t yet again.......

 

Apart from Steve Martin, whoever is casting needs shooting.

 

mentioned on here but no details:

I thought Graham Norton was in the original?

How on earth can you remake Father Ted? Damn yanks, can't they keep thier noses out of anything? Next we'll be seeing a remake of Fawlty Towers!

 

At the risk of looking stupid.........they already re-made Faulty Towers...... they had that lanky old bird from the golden girls play the park of Basil If you knew that and where taking the pi55 then order me a Taxi please

 

If he was I must have blinked.

 

since when has steve martin been a comedian?

i'd rather get my knackers blowtorched than watch him.

 

Bravo,
the 'caravan' episope was repeated on Ch4 last night!! I've seen it several times, but I found myself chuckling in 'advance' because i knew what
was coming up! Brilliant episode - graham norton look quite young - no grey bits...!

 

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