Father Dougal


Father Ted

In 1995, Britain fell in love with the inhabitants of the imaginary Irish parish of Craggy Island, and its collection of dysfunctional priests.

Scheming Father Ted (Dermot Morgan), simple Father Dougal (Ardal O'Hanlon) and Drunken Father Jack (Frank Kelly) were looked after by faintly psychotic housekeeper Mrs Doyle (Pauline McLynn) in the simple yet often surreal family comedy.

Music was provided by the Divine Comedy's Neil Hannon.

Sadly, actor Dermot Morgan died of a heart attack at the end of the third series.
