Aye, Tedfest was featured on either Stuart Marconi or Mark Radcliffes show (or the one they both do together, but only one of em was there).

Tis 10 years since the passing of Dermot Morgan (Father Ted himself).

He died 24 hours after filming the final episode of Father Ted aged 45 of a heart attack.

A complete shame as he was one of the funniest people i have seen in a long time!

There's loads on 'YouTube', if you look

We could have an entire thread for favourite episodes?? ;)
Such as;
'The Mainland' Where Mrs Doyle gets arrested for fighting in the cafe, Jack gets his new glasses (Made by 'Feckarse Industries'), Richard Wilson appears as himself & beats Ted up

'Are You Right There Father Ted?' Ted ranting in the window, with the smudge on the glass, as the Chinese community come up the drive, the Priests with the Nazi  regalia museum

'A Christmassy Ted' With the 'Ballykissangel' cross-over at the beginning

Etc......

The organiser (or one of them) was on with Stuart Maconie during his (brilliant) Saturday afternoon show.

They played the 'original' of the theme-tune too; The Divine Comedy 'Songs Of Love'

Digressing; His Saturday afternoon broadcast is one of the best shows on R2, after the evening 'Radcliffe/Maconie-fest' (but sadly still not as good as when the 'Boy Lard' was with Radcliffe)
Even mornings are okay just now, as Johnnie Walkers on at 07:30 :clap:

You mean this one??
This is also the episode with the Priest who's hiding the Nazi in his private museum, & Jack comes out of the box in the SS uniform

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=m6qTyDFtLEU


'Speed 3' is the Pat Mustard (milkman), & the bomb on the milk-float, after Ted gets him sacked.
