Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
Father Ted is one of those rare sitcoms that defies categorisation--it owes as much to Flann O'Brien and Samuel Beckett as it does to Monty Python--and its blend of satire, character comedy and anarchic surrealism has made it a cult favourite around the world. Exiled to remote Craggy Island, Father Ted shares a house with the breathtakingly stupid Father Dougal Maguire and the constantly inebriated Father Jack, who has a small vocabulary and a taste for furniture polish. Their housekeeper, Mrs Doyle, takes care of them with a never-ending supply of tea and sandwiches: "Go on now, Father, won't you try one? They're diagonal." Together they fight boredom by dressing up as Elvis, startling ducks at the fair and provoking nuns. --Simon Leake




Rating: - If you don't laugh, check your pulse, you must be dead
Father Ted is one of these things you can watch over and over again, and laugh each time. Whether your waiting at the airport, or just at home with a cup of coffee, it never fails to make you smile.

Along with all 25 episodes, there are commentries from Graham Linehan (writer), Arthur Mathews (other writer) and Ardal O'Hanlon (Dougal). As well as that there is "Ted and Dougal Do Comic Relief", "Ted Fest 2007: A Very Ted Weekend and Two Tribes Go to War" "Interview with the Writers (Part ... Read More

Rating: - One of the Best Comedy Series Ever
The best thing you can say about Father Ted is that even though it is being constantly repeated on British and Irish TV channels it is still very funny. There is an almost irrestiable temptation to watch an episode when you find one by accident while channel hopping.

This is hard to explain to someone who hasn't seen the programme. Of the four main characters three are completely cartoonish. Dougal is thick, Jack is manky, Mrs Doyle is bizarre. Their characters don't change in any way but ... Read More

Father Ted - The Definitive Collection Box Set [1995]

This is by far one of the best box sets I've ever bought. Can watch it over and over. Is hilarious, thoroughly enjoyable, and well worth the money.

Rating: - The best comedy about Irish priests living on a remote island ever made
A sitcom about four Catholic priests, living in a remote island community off the coast of Ireland? It doesn't sound the most promising of set-ups but Father Ted is pure comedy gold.

Brilliant from the first episode to the last, Father Ted is a laugh riot. Ted himself is a shallow, fame-seeking schemer who thinks he is too clever for his companions to appreciate him. Father Dougal is a naive idiot who simply speaks his mind ("I don't even believe in organised religion!" he says on television) ... Read More

Rating: - Complete brilliance
Hilarious stuff. The most accurate show ever made about religion and contains some of the funniest things I've ever seen. Watch this or rob yourself of a real treat.
