Father Ted

[punks united]

This has to be the funniest brit comediy I have ever seen....I mean you have the regular priest, the cursing and almost always drunk priest, and then you have the completely stupid priest...how much better can it get??

[Skinned Alive]

I've only got into Father Ted properly in the last few months, and it's now slowly becoming one of my favourite TV programs. Every episode has me in stitches.

MRS. DOYLE: Would you like some cake, Father?
TED: No thank you, Mrs. Doyle.
MRS. DOYLE: Aah, go on Father. It's got cocaine in it!
TED: *gasps* What?!?!
MRS. DOYLE: Aah, not cocaine, now what was it? Aah yes... raisins!

just to clear something up

in the UK, it was shown on Channel 4, and was made by a company called Hat Trick. the show has nothing to do with the BBC.

:confused:

[::Hayley::]

^ I was just gonna say that
:)

"My Lovely Horse
Running through the.. field
Where are you going
With your fetlocks blowing
In the... wind

I want to shower you with sugar lumps
And ride you over...fences
I want to polish your hooves every single day
And bring you to the horse... dentist

My lovely horse
You're a pony no... more
Running around
With a man on your back
Like a train in the night
Like a train in the... (hang on I can get this)... night!"

feckin' great :cool:

[fifi]

".....take this lump of sugar baby I know you want it!" :lol: :lol: :cool: classic!

[badlydrawngirl]

i like the one when that bloke off 'one foot in the grave' was in it, and ted thought it would be oh so funny if he went up to him and said 'I DON'T BELIEVE IT!' in his loudest voice

[::Hayley::]

ahahahhah yeah and then richard wilson started hitting ted while dougal kept taking photos :lol:

[badlydrawngirl]

:lol: :lol: what was funny was that Ted took Dougal's 'advice' when he said it'd be a GREAT idea to go up to him and say it! Graham Norton was in that episode as well :cool:

[::Hayley::]

Oh YEAH!! :lol:

Graham Norton is hilarious in that episode :D

"Tony, I'm putting you on my list of enemies :stunned: "

[badlydrawngirl]

I saw the one when they were all on a plane and Dougal went and pressed the wrong button and emptied the fuel from one of the tanks, and there were only 2 parachutes left so they decided to have like a little competition to decide who should get one. But Jack stole them both-one for himself, and one for the drinks cart :lol: :lol: :lol:

[::Hayley::]

hahaha that one is grreaaaaaaaaaaat! :smug:

The big button which says DO NOT PRESS and Dougal just couldn't resist the temptation!

here is a hilarious clip from the Euro Song/Lovely Horse episode...

DOUGAL: Look what I bought. (hands Ted a squeezy yellow phone)
TED: What's this?
DOUGAL: Squeeze it, there. (it squeaks, Dougal laughs hysterically)
TED: Dougal, this is a dog's toy.
DOUGAL: No Ted, it's a joke telephone.
TED: Dougal, this is a dog's toy. This is something that people give to dog's on their birthdays.
DOUGAL: No! It's a joke telephone!
TED: Dougal, even a dog knows this isn't a phone. This is a dog's toy! Look here, did the picture of the dog on the packaging not give you a clue? Why do you think he looks so happy? He's happy because somebody has given him a toy phone for his birthday!
DOUGAL: No! No, he's laughing because somebody tried to make a phone call on the joke telephone!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[::Hayley::]

^ hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha !!!!!!!!!!

[::Hayley::]

This is the best quote from Father Ted--

Ted - Dougal, how did you get into the church in the first place? Was it, like, 'collect 12 crisp packets and
become a priest?

:lol:

[fifi]

:lol: :lol:

[Skinned Alive]

:lol: :lol:

this is my favourite quote:

TED: Ah! Sister Assumpta! How good it is to see you! Dougal, you remember Sister Assumpta?
DOUGAL: Err, no.
TED: Ah, you do! Remember you went to the shops and got accused of shoplifting?
(Dougal shakes his head)
ASSUMPTA: I remember it so well - you know how we had to go to the police station to get you? And the police station caught fire?
(Dougal shakes his head)
ASSUMPTA: And they had to lift you out by helicopter?
(Dougal shakes his head)
TED: You don't remember the helicopter?! What about the zoo!? When they dropped you in the zoo?!
(Dougal shakes his head)
TED: You don't remember the zoo?! The lions?! You don't remember!?
(Dougal shakes his head)
TED: You were wearing your blue jumper.
DOUGAL: Ahhh! Sister Assumpta!!

[::Hayley::]

^ hehehehehehe.

Remember when Dougal actually met a nun, and asked her how her bra was :D

[DoogieJ]

my favourite Father Dougal moments (some lines may be wrong as ive not seen it for a while)

Some Bishop: So Father Dougal, do you ever have moments where your faith is tested?
Dougal: *Looks blank*
Some Bishop: You know, when you wonder why you became a priest.
Dougal: Ah, well you know that Jesus is the son of God, and he came down from heaven to save us, and his mother was Mary who was a virgin, and he died on a cross to take away our sins?
Some Bishop: Ah yes.
Dougal: That's the bit I have trouble with.
Dougal: And before you couldn't eat meat on Fridays, now it's ok, what's that about?

Dougal: Ted, Ted can we go to the fair, they've got a Spider-Baby.
Ted: A spider-baby?
Dougal: Yeah it's got the body of a spider and the head of a baby, or is it the body of a baby and the head of a baby?
Ted: Dougal are you sure you didn't just dream that.
Dougal: No Ted, it's real.
Ted: Dougal!
Dougal: Hmmm
Ted: Remember the diagram? *Holds up a picture of a head with dreams and reality separate*

Ted: DOUGAL! Did you press the redbutton???
Dougal: Oh come on now Ted, you told me not to press it, what kind of eejit do you think I am?
Ted: DOUGAL!!
Dougal: Ah yes Ted, I pressed it.
Ted: DOUGAL!!!

[badlydrawngirl]

:lol: :lol:

[::Hayley::]

Ted: DOUGAL! Did you press the redbutton???
Dougal: Oh come on now Ted, you told me not to press it, what kind of eejit do you think I am?
Ted: DOUGAL!!
Dougal: Ah yes Ted, I pressed it.
Ted: DOUGAL!!!

LOL
I love that episode :D

[Reilly]

Hate to get patriotic, but Father Ted wasnt a British comedy, it was an Irish one. It had Irish writers, Irish actors, based in Ireland, and lived and breathed Ireland obviously. Just because some English guys bought it doesnt make it British.

But back to the topic (Or whats funny about it anyways)

I loooove the episode when Father Ted and Dougal are doing the fake raffle to pay for the heating. Then the first DJ guy shows up:

Ted: Would ya like to buy a ticket Paddy?
DJ: Oh, I better not Ted.
Ted: Ah go on, its just a pound.
DJ: I really dont think I should-
Ted: Its for the church.
DJ: I dont know Ted, my father was an awful gambling man...
Ted: Ah, I see... So you dont want one then-
DJ: Well, if its for the church-
Ted: Good man.
DJ: (Taking out cheque book) I'll take two thousand.
Ted: Sorry?
DJ: Two thousand, now.

And he only remembered to bring one song! Bhahaha! You'd have to remember the song to know why it was so funny, it was a popular Indian desert song.

Ted: Please stand by for your national anthem...
*Duuuuuuuuuuuuh- dudududa duuuuuuuuuuuh*

And what was equally funny was the priest band who followed them, 4 priests behind turntables in darkness playing techno music Kraftwerk style, absolutely brilliant.

Another favourite of mine is the one where Ted is mistaken for being a racist, with the smidgen of dirt on the window which makes him look like Hitler! And the screen show, with the end flashing Ted's picture and "NOT A RACIST", its all superb.

AND AND AND the end when all the Nazi memoribilia is delivered to Ted's house as he brings all the Chinese people to it! HAHAHAHA THE MOUSE ON THE LITTLE BYCICLE HAHAHAHA

[::Hayley::]

Who said it was British :/


LOL the mouse on the bicycle...... :D :D :D :lol: was it not a hamster :o damn funny tho :sneaky:

[Skinned Alive]

And he only remembered to bring one song! Bhahaha! You'd have to remember the song to know why it was so funny, it was a popular Indian desert song.

Someone in this topic referred to it as a Brit comedy, and sometimes people do that, thats all.

[::Hayley::]

Okie doke :)
I just wondered :cool:
