I love the whole thing; it is all-consumingly hilarious.
What gets me in torrents of laughs is when Dougal is stuck driving the milkfloat, and suddenly you see a fully equipped altar and cohort of priests pulling up alongside, doing mass ![]() ![]() ... and then afterwards when they're having a crisis meeting: "Is there anything to be said for having another mass?" ![]()

I love Tom, the guy who wears the 'I shot JR' t-shirt.
"Would you believe me own dog did that to me. Doesn't it look like a face?"

Come on, Ted. Sure it's no more peculiar than all that stuff we learned in the seminary, you know, Heaven and Hell and everlasting life and all that type of thing. You're not meant to take it seriously, Ted!

"What was that term Father Jack used for the needy?"
"Ah Yes, a shower of Bastards." |

It's little things that make me laugh ...... like the names "Craggy Island" and "Rugged Island". Like the chair backs on the sofa with images of Christ. Like Mrs Doyle's head just disappearing past the window.
I actually have a Mrs Doyle crochet table doilie - I saw it in a charity shop and Mrs Doyles has a yellow centre but mine is pink. I just stood there with tears rolling down my cheeks and HAD to buy it. I loved the one where Mrs Doyle got women from all over Ireland coming to the house to see some famous singer. There were thousands of them all in tweed coats and knitted hats and making a droning noise as they relayed the info by phone. |

Mrs Doyle: They were a bit obsessed with the old…S-E-X. God I’m glad I never think of that type of thing Father. That whole sexual world. God, when you think of it it’s a dirty, filthy thing, isn’t it Father? Can you imagine Father? Can you imagine Father, looking up at your husband, and him standing over you with his lad in his hand, wanting you to degrade yourself? God almighty can you imagine that Father? Can you picture it there Father? Oh get a good mental picture of it. Can you see him there? Ready to do the business? and Mrs. Doyle: I'm so excited. Taking on three bishops all at once. I can't wait.

Ted: Except when it comes to taking precautions in the bedroom! Pat: You're not advocating the use of artificial contraception now, are you? Ted: Well, ye......well, no...well, naturally.....well, not really....well, of course you'd............JUST F.ECK OFF!

That scene was my first experience of Father Ted! I'd never heard of it and was channel hopping and thought a sit-com about priests wouldn't be up to much. Boy, was I wrong

Wouldn't it be terrible if Bishop Brennan came in and told us to go and start protesting again?
*Bishop Brennan bursts through the door* First bit of Father Ted I ever saw although then didn't regularly start watching til the second series began. |

One of my favourite bits of dialogue
Ted: Dougal, do you know if we have any incense? Dougal: (Thinks for a while) ...there was a spider in the bath last night. |

And another one:
Mrs Doyle: Are you looking forward to your lunch tomorrow, Father? Ted: Hmmm? I suppose so. Mrs Doyle: You do like pheasant, don't you Father? Ted: Pheasant? I love pheasant. Mrs Doyle: Well there's a little clue. The thing you'll be eating likes pheasant as well. |
