Father Ted

kobakira

Great! Too bad Dermot Morgan (Father Ted) died in 1998. Best episodes have got to be 'Cigarettes And Alcohol and Rollerblading' and 'Grant Unto Him Eternal Rest'. In 'Grant Unto Him Eternal Rest', Jack drinks a bottle of floor polish which (supposedly) kills him; it gives him all the 'symptoms' of death without actually killing him. In the end, Ted's reciting poetry in Jack's tomb then Jack comes up behind Ted and shouts 'SHUT THE F*CK UP!', at which point, Ted promptly faints. I know someone who is an Irish Catholic priest and he knows several people not unlike Jack Hackett and Dougal! No offence to any good catholic priests. Brilliant show! Such a classic.

score 10/10
