The episode with Bishop Brennan and all the rabbits

“It’s like some sort of rabbit rock concert Ted”

Brilliant.

Doesn’t get any simpler or funnier. I laughed till I cried at this.

The clip that currenty runs through my head once a day is

‘Father Jack, would you like to say something about our lord?’

‘Arnold?! Who’s Arnold?!’

or

Any part of the Chinese on Craggy Island. Simple early setups for gags to follow but genuis.

I like Father Dougal’s list on the wall of things that don’t exist.

Loch Ness Monster
Elvis
Non-Catholic Gods etc

And of course “that would be an Ecumenical matter”, a useful phrase in so many situations.

there are too many ‘classic’ lines in that series , to single one out would be wrong, the truth is its even funnier after the umpteenth watching, you know whats coming , but it still makes you laugh. Got to be one of the best ever, irreverent comedy with a serious edge inside.

funny seeing the other serious thread on religion nearby, that would have made father ted chuckle !

I actually got to say “that would be an Ecumenical matter” at work the other day in context. Which was nice.

I think all my favourites have been posted. Including the Hitler window sketch, the Milkman with his big tool, the near and far cows etc.

Mrs. Doyle: There’s always time for a nice cup of tea. Sure, didn’t the Lord himself pause for a nice cup of tea before giving himself up for the world.
ather Ted Crilly: No, he didn’t, Mrs Doyle!
Mrs. Doyle: Well, whatever the equivalent they had for tea in those days, cake or something. And speaking of cake, I have cake!
[She holds up a cupcake]
Father Ted Crilly: No, thanks, Mrs. Doyle.
Mrs. Doyle: Are you sure, Father? There’s cocaine in it!
Father Ted Crilly: WHAT?
Mrs. Doyle: Oh, no, not cocaine. God, what am I on about? No, what d’you call them. Raisins.

Mrs Doyle’s ability to make Father Ted feel quite uncomfortable.
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?

Small… Far away scene for me! May have to have a Father Ted fest tonight!!!

‘small vs far away’ plus one

there was an episode where mrs doyle meets up with other old ladies.they start literally talking in gibberish,then one of the old ladies levitates instead of walking (i know i didn’t explain it very well).
also the old priests playing world cup football (father jack in a radio controlled wheelchair).i hate football,but loved that episode 😀 also all that has already been mentioned 😀

I had forgetten all about Father Ted, these clips are so funny – just done a little wee in my pants!!!

hels +1. “That would be an ecumenical matter” is an incredibly useful get-out phrase in life.

Its all the work of genius. But my favourite episode….

It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve seen it, it still makes me laugh until it hurts

‘hello Len’

‘don’t call me Len you little prick,? i’m a bishop

😆

[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USkCsrO9sz4[/video]Not episodes but these are quite funny:

Not episodes but pretty funny

Classic, never get tired of watching it.

Dougal in this scene

[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhHXxJfNbc0[/video]

Fop off you fopping foppers.

[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROcKPuPvcWU[/video]

When Ted and Dougal end up in the toilet with that blokes wife in the caravan holiday episode.

Oh and the joke telephone discussion on the plane.

The first episode of series 2, when they keep bumping into the unfortunate couple on holiday is great.

But the finale with the naked husband on the car bonnet is hilarious, cracks me up every time. I think its the attempts to avoid eye contact at 60mph which do it.

Can’t seem to find a clip online though?

EDIT : Same episode as above 🙂

All the priests stranded in the lingerie department…

[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beN7FftWNCM[/video]

hahhaha binners i watched that very one last night belter !

i seem to have only brought ” the best of” with me but its good some belter on it.

Either the Hitler scene or the ‘near…far away’ scene.

Amen.

Mrs Doyle falling off the window sill, the thing she does with her leg get me crying laughing, not sure why but it does

The bit where Bishop Brennan is meeting the pope and finally snaps out of his cataonic shock at being kicked up the arse.

CRIIIILLLLYYY!!!!!!!

😀

“Teamatic , takes the misary out of making tea”

“what if i like the misary?”

[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvvwNR3vF44[/video]

The look on Mrs. Doyle’s face when she finally guesses the name Father Todd Unctious.

Mrs Doyle’s Bob Dylan/Subterranean Homesick Blues tribute with the cards saying Go On, Go On, Go On…

Father Dougal McGuire: I don’t believe in organized religion.

JUST PLAY THE **** NOTE!

Then later on in the next scene where they play the song and Father Jack gets the shotgun out!

[video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR0QfipIbk4[/video]

No, I’ll pay

Or

Near, far away

Classic

“Bingo!”

“No luck then, Ted?”

“God! Almost drifted off for a moment there.”

9 minutes in – genius.

They’ve just got into bed and turned the light off. Father Ted turns the light on for some reason and Dougal thinks its morning already 🙂

fervouredimage – that’s another of my favourites, and so many people miss it. I think it may actually be Graham Linehan who shouts it too.

It is, he confimred it on Twitter. he then posted a link to a clip someone had sent him of an overdub of the scene in Casino Royale where le Chiffre has double bluffed Bond in the card game and you hear a “f****** hell”. Brilliant.

“FED UP OF AHHHHHHHHHH BRIIIIIIIICK”

“GET ME OFF THIS FKEIN ISLAND”.

Oh, my sides.

roller blades cigarettes and alcohol

as jack sobers up ….

“wheres the other 2”
