Father Ted

Just watched one on Sky+, it is so good, such gentle humour, what a fantastic programme, any other fans ?

Father Dougal reminds me of j4ckos mate...

Superb program, one of my fave's of all time, true shame that Dermot Morgan was struck down in his prime!

Father Ted: Dougal do we have any incense?

Father Dougal: Er....There was a spider in the bath...

My uncle Anthony used to get mistaken for Father Ted, my sister in law is Irish and has a hint of Mrs Doyle and my Father in Law is slightly more uncouth version of Father Jack

I had the pleasure of living in Ireland for 6 years about 20 years ago, and it's even funnier if you know the (real) Irish way of life.

Like most of the successful comedies, it's an insight into life

Great show. LOVE IT!!

Mrs Doyle polishing the windows. Trying to get down from the sill without falling! And the once she managed it she was on wires!!!

Baking a sweater into a cake for Eoin McLove... I very nearly died of laughter at that.

Mrs. Doyle: There's always time for a nice cup of tea. Sure, didn't the Lord himself pause for a nice cup of tea before giving himself up for the world.
Father Ted Crilly: No, he didn't, Mrs Doyle!
Mrs. Doyle: Well, whatever the equivalent they had for tea in those days, cake or something. And speaking of cake, I have cake!
[She holds up a cupcake]
Father Ted Crilly: No, thanks, Mrs. Doyle.
Mrs. Doyle: Are you sure, Father? There's cocaine in it!
Father Ted Crilly: WHAT?
Mrs. Doyle: Oh, no, not cocaine. God, what am I on about? No, what d'you call them. Raisins.
