I watched it this morning with my tuna roll haha. It's a great watch alright. Couldn't recommend it enough.

So much of Father Ted has become so obvious and a part of the mainstream that you forget about what an astounding sitcom it was. The entire thing was made up of quotes and moments. The script was basically one liners from start to finish.

The Irish wouldn't rejoice again until our boy Sheamus won the WWE title at TLC 2009.

Yeah I've got so many quotes from it stuck in my head forever

Like someone said in comments on one of the videos though , seeing inside the real parochial house destroyed my childhood

Love the behind the scene bits too

For some reason I fall into a fit of hysterics during the bit where Tommy Tiernan [Father Kevin I think? ... whatever] is on the bus and Radiohead is introduced by this comically desperate alternative rock country boy announcer on the radio. It's so dour it's bloody brilliant.

EDIT : here it is!

Youtube video

And whats even better is Tommy's whimsical selling of it. 'Oh put it on!'

Thats a great scene especially how the color of the scene completely changes
and the one before that where he cheers up dancing to shaft

Father Ted used to be brilliant.... one that sticks in my mind was the Talent/Singing contest between all the priests on the Island - Elvis etc..... some of the patter, rivalry set up were sheer class. FAF and hilarious!

I loved the milkman one, with Dougal driving round and round the roundabout so the milk truck didn't explode.

Bishop O'Neill: So Father, do you ever have any doubts? Is your faith ever tested? Any trouble you've been having with beliefs or anything like that?
Father Dougal: Well you know the way God made us, and he's looking down at us from heaven?
Bishop O'Neill: Yeah...
Father Dougal: And then his son came down and saved everyone and all that?
Bishop O'Neill: Uh huh...
Father Dougal: And when we die, we're all going to go to heaven?
Bishop O'Neill: Yes. What about it?
Father Dougal: Well that's the part I have trouble with!
