Father Ted - The Best Of Father Ted

2002

Overall rating: 4 out of 5

from 9592 members

Five of the best episodes from the popular comedy show. In 'Competition Time' Fathers Ted, Dougal and Jack all enter the local talent contest as Elvis impersonators. 'Cigarettes and Alcohol and Rollerblading' sees the unholy trio tricked into giving up their few material pleasures for Lent by Father Dick Burn of Rugged Island. In 'A Song for Europe' Ted comes up against Dick once again when the latter challenges him to produce a winning entry for Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest. 'Speed 3' finds Dougal trapped on a milkfloat with a bomb in an episode strangely reminiscent of a disaster movie (could it be 'The Poseidon Adventure'? Ted is pretty sure that Gene Hackman plays a priest in it). Finally, in 'The Mainland', Ted and Dougal encounter Richard 'I don't believe it' Wilson when they take a trip to the mainland for the day. However, the famously irascible television star is less than pleased when Ted decides to repeat his catchphrase to him. The DVD contains the exclusive to DVD episode 'A Christmassy Ted' in which all Ted wants is a quiet Christmas. But how easy is that?

Fantastic!

By a customer from Buckinghamshire , 20 Feb 2009

Trust Father Ted to cheer you up whenever you put it on. Stereo-typing the Irish for their dumbness [at times] but this TV series is a classic, if you don't find it funny then you just don't have a sense of humour! 'Have a cup of tea!'

My fave episode is 'Speed 3'.

The rest must be bad

By a customer from Waterlooville , 05 Feb 2009

If these are the best I am glad I did not rent the others. The last two episodes in this disk were better than the early ones hence three stars otherwise would have been less.

Absolute comedy at it's best

By a customer from Lytham St. Annes , 26 Jan 2009

Couldn't stop laughing at the first 2 episodes. The others didn't seem as good. maybe they should have saved the best till last not the other way round.
