It has come to my attention, that many people here have never actually seen Father Ted.

Father Ted was a comedy programme, revolving around the life of one priest, Father Ted, and to a lesser extent the people he lives with (Dougal, Jack and Mrs Doyle.

As wikipedia writes:

wikipedia wrote:

The show follows the exploits of three Roman Catholic priests who preside over a parish on Craggy Island, located off the west coast of Ireland. Father Ted Crilly, Father Dougal McGuire and the retired Father Jack Hackett live together in Craggy Island's parochial house, along with their housekeeper Mrs Doyle, who "keeps Craggy Island Parochial House floating on a sea of tea" according to official synopses.

The three priests answer to the fierce, uncompromising Bishop Len Brennan, who makes frequent visits to the island, often to cast his disapproving eye over the trio and their backwater parish. He is apparently responsible for their exile to the less-than-desirable island parish - the reasons for the move are hinted at across the several seasons. They appear to stem from a mixture of incompetence and embarrassing conduct: Father McGuire due to his incompetence (with particular regard to "the Blackrock Incident", in which a large number of lives were irreparably damaged although they were "only nuns"); Father Hackett because of his alcoholism and implied womanising, which caused severe embarrassment to the Catholic Church; and Father Crilly for alleged financial impropriety. Ted still insists he was innocent, regularly claiming that "the money was just resting in my account", and that it was "a perfectly legitimate monetary transfer".

The show also introduced many catchphrases that are well known in Ireland and Britain, most notably Mrs Doyle's "Go on, go on" and Father Jack's cursing, mostly monosyllabic expletives including and almost entirely limited to "Drink!", "Feck!", "Arse!", "Girls!" and "Gobshite!".

It's amazing that Radovan Karadzic managed to lead a successful life in Father Ted and then with the Dubliners.

I've seen every episode, that racist one was classic.

I rank Father Ted up there with some of the greatest ever comedy series'.

I never liked the shows, but I remember a newspaper headline "FATHER TED IS DEAD". Always thought that's a pretty disrespectful way to report an actor's death, comedian or not.
