Omg! This is some of the funniest stuff I've ever seen. The drunk priest with his hair on fire and the one screaming nuns! nuns! Did they show these on PBS in the U.S? Cause I feel like I've seen these or something similar to Father Ted years ago on PBS in Chicago. So funny.
The priests house is actually not on an island it's in the Burren National Park. The owners have a charity swear tin by the gate for visitors who may have a sudden urge to say FECK or ARSE. It's quite a bleak place.
Imagine what would have happened if there'd been a comedy series about an island with imams behaving in strange ways. There would have been a lot of dead people in the entertainment business.
Do not believe that some of these comedy scenes never happen in real life in Ireland, because they do ! I was driving back from Connemara to the Dublin ferry, after a great weeks fishing one May. It was the early hours of the morning but just daylight and in Galway a car past me going the other way and there was a totally naked man spreadeagled across the bonnet ! In one of the small towns on route there was a Garda car parked with two Gards in, so I stopped to report it. One of them told me not to worry, he’d just roll off when he’d had enough 🤣🤣
Okay, so here it is 1:30 a.m. and I'm trying desperately to smother my guffaws but any minute Security will pound on my door...these are Wonderful, so therapeutic 😁
That’s a satire about how Irish people must never ever show the world that something is wrong. They always pretend in front of the priests. I thought this was just a joke until I married into the Irish and saw it with my own eyes. Unless it’s just my in laws. Like, my Father in Law had a heart attack and refused to call an ambulance because the neighbours would know somethings wrong level kind of stuff.
@@stevebaker6149 Nah. Doesn't matter how you feel about trans people, obsessing over them and going out of your way to attack them at any opportunity the way Linehan has actually does make you a shit person. His wife actually left him over it.
Best moment of Father ted was when Ted said "I'll just give him a call" and it cuts to the car, and while he's fumbling for the phone (which is in the footwell), graham linehan drives off a huge cliff and is impaled on a fifty-foot tall granite phallus.
