100%. I watched this when it first aired. The first time it was said, I didn't hear it right and thought they said "fecking hell" (they used feck as a substitute for fuck). The 2nd time was more clear. It was a surprise as fuck was rarely heard on British TV at the time.
Father Jack being affected by the changing of the seasons, and having a marvellous serenity entering his life is probably one of the most hilarious Father Ted moments! 😂
This is my favourite episode of all the episodes. Ted's face half covered in mud and the 2 f-ing hell's when he is revealing the people are brilliant moments.
The two actors who play John and Mary said it was probably the hardest job they had. After all, they had to switch moods from homicidal to sweetness and light in a second.
The hat thing on the teapot was a tea cozy, a knitted teapot covering which keeps your tea warm for longer. It used to be a popular thing in Britain from the Victorian times till maybe the end of last century. You still see them sometimes.
The guy shouting 'fucking hell' in the background was writer Graham Linehan. He was also the guy buying the burger in Black Books when Bernard was very briefly working there while it rained lol.
He was also the Mariachi in the IT crowd at Messy Joe’s “happy happy happy” 😂 And the guy that panics when the internet is destroyed after Jen’s speech “were all going to die!” 😂
I’ve watched all these episodes many many times over the years. They still make me cry with laughter even now. So glad you’ve discovered Father Ted and clan 😂
"There's something terrible on the moors, Father!" *Dougal plays spooky sound effect* 😂 Always loved that little bit! Awsome reaction as usual, seeing you two delving into this eternal classic is always a highlight of the week. :)
18:11 - Not a hat for a teapot but a Cosy (Ko-zee), which is used to keep the pot warm in between cups of tea. Although I would have to describe its purpose as a, er, hat for a teapot basically.
living in London and being Irish I occasionally was in the same bar standing beside Graham Linehan, the co-writer of Father Ted. This is not saying I know the guy, it was Irish guys watching the Irish football team losing again, it was simply I’d a knowledge of TV writers, and recognized him, and thought, it would be great to be acknowledged by your peers, but unknown to the public
@@Steve-gc5nt did more than say hello, I spent the evening talking, off and on. Not a big deal, just a couple of football fans throwing a few comments at each other.
This episode's title "Chirpy Burpy Cheap Sheep" is taken from the early 70s song "Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep" which was covered by several artists and can be seen on RUclips. One of the more popular versions was sung by the group Middle of the Road. From Wikipedia: In 2006 "Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep" topped a list of unintentionally creepy songs in The Observer. Despite its popular appeal and popular chorus, the song has a theme of child abandonment.
Fuppin hell The best thing about Father Ted is Once you have watched the whole series once you can rewatch it another 1000 times at least Not many shoes do that Lucy the hat on the kettle you mentioned we called a tea cosy
18:10 - That little woolly hat on the teapot is called a tea cozy. Not many people use them these days. They normally expect old ladies to have them. But I do agree it does look cute.
It sounds bizarre, but BBC sound effects albums were actually a thing. Not quite all the rage as Dougal was imagining, but popular enough. I remember one time as a kid playing sound effects of kittens mewing, and sending our dog round the twist looking for them.
🤣 Ahhhh, l dunno... Youse two ejits have got me doing the "Father Ted intro drink sway" at the start of each viewing! (Just gulleted a gin and tonic.) Another great episode and great company to view it with. "A retractable fifth leg so he can leap up atcha better "... Oh Dougal 🤣. You know what I love about the writing of this program, we can see ourselves being set up for the gags and we know what's going to happen, but it doesn't necessarily happen the way we anticipate it and it can turn out totally different yet still funny. But that's the beautiful part of the whole thing... the unpredictability of the predictable! Thankyou for your company, ye pair o' gobshites! 🍻 😝👍
Watch some Victor Meldrew highlights (One Foot in the Grave) before you get too much further as the character is referenced heavily in one of the later episodes of Father Ted and having some familiarity with him would be beneficial to enjoying the episode more.
Awe you two are such a tonic…. Yesterday I had to retrieve things from my mam’s home I lived in with her for nearly 30 years….. I had to hand over my keys for the last time. My dad physically tried to attack me in the garage….. I had to literally run away…. All I wanted was my LP’s and sentimental things…. He ruined her life and mine. She threw him out in 1979 and remained faithful for the rest of her life. It is terribly sad….my older brother did well and lives well in London….. I stayed and looked after her…. Yesterday was a very hard day. But hey…..Life of Brian….”Always look on the bright side of life.” Mam gave me the Irish ability to laugh and take the pi$$ out of absolutely everything! You two are such good friends I have never met! Thanks for cheering me up…Julie and Jimmy the naughty black and white cat….but he is not the size of four cats….he just has two ears not back up ones, or magnets in his tail in case you’re made of metal so he can attach himself to you, and only a mouth instead of four arses! 🤭 There’s no pain a Father Ted injection can’t cure. I forgot how funny this episode was…… especially when the farmer bloke flooded in tears over pictures of Chris the sheep…..”….he doesn’t want to see anybody father.” Mental but so stupidly hilarious. Xx P.S I think in me Mams garage in my LP box just behind the beloved soundtrack to The Empire Strikes Back was indeed a BBC Sound effects album Dougal wanted next. 😌 x
Forgot….Please don’t insist I have to get of bed and pull down the chart to THINGS THAT DONT EXIST! We all know Darth Vader is real and you two are so lovely and very real.xx
@@bradlucy Remember that "Kicking Bishop Brennan up the Arse" isn't a standalone episode, it's a direct sequel to "Escape from Victory", so you should make sure to watch that one first.
I've always loved this show and watching you guys enjoying and appreciating the utter silliness of it all is brilliant, it would be great to see you watch the IT Crowd in the future too, also by Graham Linehan
We can't get IT crowd through copyright, so we placed episodes on our Dailymotion and our Patreon pages. Patreon: www.patreon.com/user?u=77163325 Dailymotion page: www.dailymotion.com/dm_0ee521d0240447076c2922cb8810b9ca
Hopefully you can get series 3 episode 1 to clear. So many great ones in series 3 ( Speed 3 won the best ever episode in a vote -- but they are all fun ).
Just watched your 'Father Ted King of the sheep' Hilarious. Sorry I can't send a cheque for a recording studio but I might have a spare sheep in the garden shed for you. ps if you meet Father Jack cross to the other side of the road immediately. lol
Have you never seen a tea cosy? Is it tea cosy or cozy? Tea cosy is the British way to spell it, while in the United States and other parts of the world it's cozy.
If you have the DVD with the commentary you'll already know that Arthur and Graham came to hate this episode for the same reason some people love it - i.e: because they threw together all the silliest ideas that they had. As a result of having already started to tire of Ted and needing to pad out the third series.
I didn't particularly enjoy this episode when it was first broadcast, and repeated viewing hasn't changed my mind. The plot is too elaborate, the foreshadowing too well hidden for the payoff to land with all that much satisfaction. But believe me when I say that the next two episodes contain some of the finest comedy you could ever wish to see. If I were you I'd have a team of paramedics on standby, you may well need them.
Always love your reactions! Once you've finished Father Ted, maybe check out Mrs Brown's Boys, another Irish comedy but started about 10 years ago. The earlier episodes are great!
That off camera "fu**ing hell" will never not make me laugh 😂
🇮🇪
Same, they're both just so random, and the only ones in the entire show instead of 'feck off'. It always makes me howl with laugher.
One of the fucking hell’s sounds like Graham Linehan the co-writer of Father Ted
Best "F***ing Hell!!!" in TV history
Best two 😁
Lol 😂
My faviroute part of this episode " f**King hell"
100%. I watched this when it first aired. The first time it was said, I didn't hear it right and thought they said "fecking hell" (they used feck as a substitute for fuck). The 2nd time was more clear. It was a surprise as fuck was rarely heard on British TV at the time.
I can’t help but laugh at the ‘fuckin hell’ bits at the competition. Pretty sure that’s the writer Graham
Father Jack being affected by the changing of the seasons, and having a marvellous serenity entering his life is probably one of the most hilarious Father Ted moments! 😂
And Jack wiping his mouth with the puppy has to be one of the most disgusting.
@@lionlyons Very much so!
This is my favourite episode of all the episodes.
Ted's face half covered in mud and the 2 f-ing hell's when he is revealing the people are brilliant moments.
I think Speed 3 just tops it, but this is a brilliant episode, especially the last 5 minutes.
I’ve been at pub quizzes and the likes and people do the “fuckin hell” thing if there’s any dodgy questions or answers etc 😂
😂
The two actors who play John and Mary said it was probably the hardest job they had. After all, they had to switch moods from homicidal to sweetness and light in a second.

The title is a play on the the 1971 hit "Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheap" by Middle of the road.
Cardboard is surprisingly warm when around you in freezing temperatures 😎
I love how it looks as if the accused are standing in the Dock as lawyer Ted exposes their deed! 😆
I’ve watched all these episodes many many times over the years. They still make me cry with laughter even now. So glad you’ve discovered Father Ted and clan 😂
🐑 'If I was a sheep, I'd watch my back!' 🐑
She’s got a hat on the tea pot 😂. It’s a tea cosy.
chirpy chirpy cheep cheep was a number 1 UK song in 1971, if you are wondering the gag
"There's something terrible on the moors, Father!" *Dougal plays spooky sound effect* 😂 Always loved that little bit! Awsome reaction as usual, seeing you two delving into this eternal classic is always a highlight of the week. :)

Did you ever say hello to him?
@@Steve-gc5nt did more than say hello, I spent the evening talking, off and on. Not a big deal, just a couple of football fans throwing a few comments at each other.
Yay my favourite show with my favourite couple. I just got some quality smoke also, my day couldnt get any better. Love you guys.

This along with Speed 3 are the best two episodes imo.

But I do agree it does look cute.
Always watch this clip when i need cheering up,f*****G hell lol.
This was the last appearance of John and mary
21:04 that’s an underrated ridiculous comic moment
If you want to see an interview with the actor who plays Father Jack: ruclips.net/video/QdDFrXmc_pU/видео.html
If I remember rightly, the f*ckin hell guy was actually the director doing a spot of improv. Could be wrong but it's something along those lines.
You can't beat Irish Humour 🤣We make more jokes/fun about ourselves than anyone else🍀❤️🍀❤️🍀👍
Just to reiterate "No man's sheep is safe" 🐑🐺
It sounds bizarre, but BBC sound effects albums were actually a thing. Not quite all the rage as Dougal was imagining, but popular enough. I remember one time as a kid playing sound effects of kittens mewing, and sending our dog round the twist looking for them.
When they are in bed and Father Dougal is describing the beast cracks me up everytime I see it
Hairy babies next?! - yay!!
I think you guys would love the Irish comedian Dylan Moran, he is so funny I think he would appeal to your humour!
I believe we have done a few of his.
@@bradlucy oh class! I must check out your reactions (I only found your channel a few nights ago)
Graeme Lyneham also wrote the I.T. Crowd its as good as this definitely worth a watch season 1 is good but gets better from season 2 😊
If you enjoy British comedy, I think you'll enjoy Keeping up appearances.. It's hilarious! especially Hyacinth's facial expressions lol a true classic

Said it before...so much pleasure to be had sharing stuff with you. Not religious, but bless you both.
Great episode! great react! I kept turning around at the outro because I thought it was my cat but it must of been your dog walking about xD

Its so ridiculous, its hilarious 😃
Probably my favourite episode!

Love this episode,
If you go back through the episode most of these "Clues" really are there.
These are funny and corny all at once. I love how this show didn't take itself seriously. 😀 😄 🤣
A hat on the T pot,, ha ha ha ,, T cosy ...
I was watching a show on television 2day about hurricanes in America (Katrina, Harvey, etc) thankfully we don't get those here in the UK
Did the two of you ever see the episode "Kicking Bishop Brennan up the Arse"? One of the absolute best!
It's coming soon. I think we only have a few episodes left to do

When you finish with Ted, start Derry Girls!
Hopefully you can get series 3 episode 1 to clear. So many great ones in series 3 ( Speed 3 won the best ever episode in a vote -- but they are all fun ).
They did Series 3 episode 1 some time ago.
As I mentioned in the intro, you can watch Episode 1. The link is in the description 😁 It was the first episode we watched that got us hooked
Just watched your 'Father Ted King of the sheep' Hilarious. Sorry I can't send a cheque for a recording studio but I might have a spare sheep in the garden shed for you. ps if you meet Father Jack cross to the other side of the road immediately. lol
24:13 easily missed but hilarious 😂
@24:08 and @25:14 "fuckin hell" hahahaha hilarious
Just watching it again 🤣🤣🤣
You guys should react to fawtly towers. It’s an instant classic you won’t regret
