    I'm a 41 y/o mom of 3, from Colorado. I've been watching Father Ted since about 1999 when Comedy Central ran The best of the BBC one weekend. My children are also fans, and Father Ted has helped me through severe depression.

      I've recently re-discovered the Divine Comedy/Neil Hannon and am staggered at his cornucopia of 12 studio albums (not including the 2 cricket ones and a couple of operettas, and possibly the dis-owned one, etc). Really worth checking out. They're on tour later this year. I bought 'Songs of Love', made after the theme tune, as piano solo sheet music and play it regularly: highly recommend that too, simple but beautiful.

    • @JoelCarli

    Fabulous show, the fact you watch the same programme again and again and still laugh afresh is testiment to that. Graham Linehan also created the IT Crowd, another hilarious prog. which stands repeat viewings. Neil Hannon of the Devine Comedy wrote both theme tunes and turned the FT one into the glorious 'Songs of Love' which you can buy the sheet music for. I forgot about the DC after 1997: turns out Neil's done 11 DC albums and a whole lot more - check them out, peops! A new album out 7 June and touring UK and Europe Oct/Nov 19.

'Of course father, not a problem father, would you like a cup of tea & a cake father'
    He also shares a story of singing 'my lovely horse' on stage but that is a different episode of said show
