It’s been twenty entire years TODAY since the frosty haired Father Ted first entered our lives.
While the show only lasted for three seasons, Dermot Morgan, Ardal O’Hanlon, Pauline McLynn and Frank Kelly gave us endless laughs during their time playing the hapless priests and their hilarious housekeeper.
The show premiered on Channel 4 on April 21, 1995 and to mark the Father Ted 20th anniversary, we have rounded up the best twenty quotes.
Enjoy!
1) ‘Down with this sort of thing!’
Fathers Ted and Dougal were not exactly the best at protesting…
2) ‘They all have lovely bottoms!’
Ted wasn’t so great at presenting the Lovely Girls pageant either…
3) ‘I’ll put your head through the wall.’
Don’t mess with Father Fintan Stack.
4) ‘Let’s have a screeching competition!’
Father Noel Furlong really was the best thing about the show.
5) ‘Tony Lynch… came crawling in a ten past the eleven!’
Another classic from Graham Norton as Father Furlong. Poor Tony.
6) ‘I have no willy.’
Eoin McLove, ladies and gentlemen.
7) ‘Blur.’
Father Dougal totally embarrassed himself with this one.
8) ‘Shoddy, shoddy, shoddy!’
Watch old for those cowboys, Ted.
9) ‘Pat was wondering if he could put his massive tool in my box?’
So perfectly naive is Mrs Doyle.
10) ‘A pair of feckin’ women’s knickers!’
One of Father Jack’s more subtle lines.
11) ‘I love my BRICK.’
The only thing that Jack ever showed affection to.
12) ‘You were wearing your blue jumper.’
Oh, Dougal….
13) ‘How’s the son, Len?’
Subtly is not in Dougal’s vocabulary.
14) ‘It’s Ireland’s largest lingerie department…’
This is perhaps the funniest scene in the entire series.
15) ‘They’ve got a spider baby.’
Dougal just described our worst nightmare.
16) ‘I don’t believe it!’
Hell hath no fury like Victor Meldrew scorned.
17) ‘Go on, my son.’
Mrs Doyle describing football is perfection.
18) ‘It’s a different shark!’
Do not mistake Jaws for Jaws 2.
19) ‘Ah would you look at him there with his hairy hands…’
Father Jack is a sight to behold…
20) ‘…kick Bishop Brennan up the arse!’
So shocking, it caused Mrs Doyle to break a teapot.
Series one, two and three of Father Ted can be viewed on Netflix.
