This was one of the finest written comedies ever in this side of the pond. It parodies EVERBODY… the clip you showed there is so multi layered when you actually look at it , the accidental racism , the full blown hidden racism and the guy willing to be led by the church in terms of racism, blended together it’s so witty and so well done and actually leaves you asking questions of yourself in terms of casual or latent racism. It was of it’s time (mid 90’s) but still stacks up well today . Another clip to look out for is the priests trying to escape from the lingerie section of a department store, absolutely classic.
“Ladies and gentlemen please bring your purchases to the checkout as the store is about to close…come on hurry up now” “NOT THAT WAY FOR FECK SAKE THE OTHER WAY, MOVE!”
Father Ted is just a gift from the comedy gods. An absolute treasure. "Small and Far Away" is another clip to check out, but you should watch the whole damn thing.
@@stofferrussell I think that's also the one with Richard Wilson from 'One Foot In The Grave' (playing himself). Graham Norton's character is annoying as hell. 😂
The thing is, there is a second bit to this story that most people is missing. There is a black mark on the windows (at about 1:35) that comes in to play later in the episode. Just look for (Father Ted The Accidental Facist | Father Ted).
The Hitler moustache. I'd forgotten about that. Must get out my CDs soon and have another Father Ted Fest day. Been a while. But never a day wasted. Best ever sitcom. ❤❤❤
Father Ted is one of the best comedies of the 90s. Each episode of the 3 seasons is hilarious. That particular episode is memorable for a little piece of dirt on the window. Would love to see your reaction to that. Superb writing
It was essentially an anti racism clip from a comedy show ...the point was supposed to be that many "ordinary people" could upset people with things that they didn't consider to be racist....after impersonating the chinaman he spent the rest of the show proving he wasn't racist and telling others not to be racist....but Father ted is very funny. It is set on an island off the coast of ireland with a very small population.
You need to watch Father Ted. At least this episode so you understand, Ted is the only sane person in the village.... there is no "China Town". There's only about 200 in the whole village. (Which is why having one is funny.) If you've never seen 90's British sitcoms, there are a ton! "Are You Being Served?", "Keeping Up Appearances", "Red Dwarf", "The Victor of Dibley", "One Foot In The Grave", "The IT Crowd".....
Take it from me, the more Father Ted you watch, the funnier it gets. The characters, the acting, the writing, the ridiculous scenarios and situations...it's all pure genius.
Later in that same episode the mark on the window plays its part. The first thing I ever saw of Father Ted was the scene with the mark on the window Pissed myself laughing.
OMG Jay, you have to watch more Father Ted, every episode is full of scenes like this. It’s Graham Linehan’s finest (he’s the writer) Sadly Father Ted (Dermot Morgan) passed away while filming although they had already planned on bringing the series to an end before his death 😢
Mate Father Ted was one of the best comedies of the 90's. More shenanigans happen in that episode. Did you notice that square bit of dirt on the window?
You need to watch the hold episode, it's very well done, he ends up with the Chinese family in a room full of Nazi decorations. It was a brave episode to do in the 90s still stands today as slapstick funny.
See if you can find where they are airing the whole series. One of my favourite comedies. The same writers created The IT Crowd afterwards. Almost as good and well worth catching too.
You can find the complete Father Ted series on RUclips. It is worth to watch. Just imagine a small Irish island in 1990s with a catholic priest that always finds trouble, an old drunk retired priest and a young simple minded priest. It is comedy gold.
It just wouldn’t be the same show if it had been written by British people. Father Ted is a send-off of so many Irish social and cultural tropes that go over your head.
Father Ted is a 90s classic and all 3 series are definitely worth checking out. Taffe316 has done reaction videos to all the episodes on his RUclips channel.
Glad you enjoyed Father Ted, it is really excellent. Other things you should try, "Yes Minister/" "Yes Prime Minister" very clever and funny political satire. "Brasseye", in my opinion B"rasseye" is the best political satire ever made in the UK. Best regards from the UK.
This is one of the funniest episodes ever. Although it is best to see the whole episode in the context of the series so you can see it in the light of the traits and flaws of each character.
You need to see the full episode, it will have you in stitches, you might have noticed something on the window, that will come into the comedy later, I'm not going to tell you why, because that would spoil it for you, but it is well worth watching.
You might notice the little black rectangle of electrical tape stuck to the window in this sketch. There's an excellent pay-off later on in this episode.
When they say they have a China town I can guarantee it'll just be that family craggy island is too small.people always react to the shorter clip.in the longer clip there's an extra joke.the window were the Chinese were standing there's a perfectly square bit of dirt ted invites them back to say sorry.ted's being animated with his arms inside when the Chinese look through the window the square of dirt is at the exact height for his top lip and he looks like he's doing a hail Hitler salute. The actor playing the Chinese guy is from Liverpool and has a Scouse accent but he loses it for the show and speaks a general English accent.
@@martinbobfrank I'm sure I saw him in the video for you'll never walk alone Gerry and the pacemakers.the one that's in black and white and has Liverpudlians lip syncing.it has some actors in it.i looked him up he's called Ozzie yue born in 47 in Liverpool.
Congratulations, you just discovered a real gem from the emerald Isle. (Ireland. See what I did there). Father ted was one of those comedies that pops up once in a while to become a total icon in history along with Fawlty towers, Black adder and Mrs brown's boys. You may have noticed a piece of black tape stuck to the window as the Chinese people walk away, that becomes significant later in that episode to great comic affect. You should definitely watch the whole episode.
Ah man I wish they included the end clip from this episode, where he'd apologised and invited them over to the house, but there was that little patch of square ⬛ shaped dirt on the window......... 😉😄
I remember watching Father Ted when it first aired and it was amazingly funny, Irish (or British) humour to its fullest. Father Ted (Dermot Morgan) died unfortunately in real life and was a really funny guy on screen. I did hear when I first watched it decades ago that even proper Catholic priests watched it, as it was stunningly close to being an actual Catholic priest; I still don't know how close to the truth that is or still is but I still find it adds to the show. Worth watching the programme even on your own without RUclips.
Stopped short, the funniest bit of the sketch is yet to come, he digs himself in even deeper. You should ideally show or watch the rest of that sketch if you can. Very funny comedy series.
Father Ted was very popular, but also caused a bit of controversy over its religious irreverence! The episode where the Fathers go on holiday in a caravan and the one where there is a parody of the film "Speed" (with the bomb on a milk float!) are both very funny, too 😂 ..... incidentally, Graham Norton (now a well known host of a BBC chat show) appears in several episodes of this series ...
This is great as all Father Ted is, but it doesn't even make the top 3 for me. Favourites are a joint top between "Cigarettes, Alcohol & Rollerblading" and "Kicking Bishop Brennan Up The Arse".
Father Ted is epic! My fav clip from this show is "Ireland's Biggest Lingerie Section". You need to check that out, please! I am laughing already by just thinking about it! XD
The script for the show was wriien by two Irish lads Graham Linehan and Arthur Mathews. They brought it to Ireland's national tv network who turned it down because it would be too controversial. They brought it to British channel 4 who took a chance on it. The rest as they say is history. It won every accolade that can be won for comedy . The cast and all the outdoor footage was filmed in the West of Ireland and depicts the lives of three dysfunctional priests living with their widowed housekeeper. The star of the show Fr Ted ( Dermot Morgan) passed away in 1998 after the last episode. Sadly most of the cast has since passed away but it still airs on several channels now. Well worth watching.
There is a WONDERFUL sketch you might enjoy from the BBC's 'Goon Show' of the 1950s. A radio show featuring the writing talents of comedy legend Spike Milligan, It's called 'What Time Is It, Eccles?'. One of the finest pieces of comedy ever written. His comedy award acceptance speech from the 1994 British Comedy Awards is also well worth watching! Both are on RUclips.
You have to view the whole episode. Father Ted tries to make things better & digs himself into a deeper hole! I love the line about people living in the Chinese quarter. There’s only about 50 people on the whole island! A brilliant, evergreen comedy. In some episodes, the characters are based on real people.

I was just going to say the same or kicking the Bishop up the Arse I'm laughing thinking of it 😆 brilliant 👏
Father Ted was one of the best comedies on TV- you should give it a try
Most definitely. 👊💯
Ah go on.
@@wesker100000000 GO ON GO ON GO ON!!! hahaha
Lol. It's one of Ireland's greatest comedies I understand.
You can find Father Ted on RUclips.
Father Ted is just a gift from the comedy gods. An absolute treasure. "Small and Far Away" is another clip to check out, but you should watch the whole damn thing.
“These cows are small, those ones are far away!”
That episode also stars Graham Norton as Father Noel, a highly underrated character in my opinion.
@@stofferrussell I think that's also the one with Richard Wilson from 'One Foot In The Grave' (playing himself). Graham Norton's character is annoying as hell. 😂
When I stumbled upon this clip a couple years ago, I decided to watch the whole series (on RUclips) and it was well worth it.
Good choice.
Omg father Ted used to have me crying. With laughter. Sooo funny. 🤣
It's unbelievable that Dermot Morgan has been gone 24 years already! So glad you enjoyed your first Father Ted. I knew you would😀
That whole episode is brilliant “ah the Chinese, a great bunch of lads” 😂
Lol the timing is so good. Its good satire lol
One of the funniest lines ever said in a TV show... "It isn't the Greeks..... It's the Chinese he's after".....
"I don't care as long as I can still have a go at the Greeks! They invented gayness!" 🤣
The thing is, there is a second bit to this story that most people is missing. There is a black mark on the windows (at about 1:35) that comes in to play later in the episode. Just look for (Father Ted The Accidental Facist | Father Ted).
Yeah literally everybody misses that bit off and it’s the funniest bit.
Right? They always react to the short clip. The entire episode is hilarious, but even the extended compilation is better than this.
Ahh I was hoping the clip would show it, it’s hilarious!!
The Hitler moustache. I'd forgotten about that. Must get out my CDs soon and have another Father Ted Fest day. Been a while. But never a day wasted. Best ever sitcom. ❤❤❤
Father Ted is one of the best comedies of the 90s. Each episode of the 3 seasons is hilarious. That particular episode is memorable for a little piece of dirt on the window. Would love to see your reaction to that. Superb writing
You're right, every episode is a perfectly crafted piece of silly, hilarious, nonsense. A total gem.
😄😄😄 That window scene was hilarious! You called it with ole messy boots...She's been holding a lot in! 😄 More please!
You just have to see the scene with the small mark on the window! when the Chinese people are approaching, still my favourite Father Ted moment!
you should watch the full episode its hilarious
Gotta watch the whole episode (then the box set). That little bit of black tape on the window!
'That little bit of black tape on the window!' ... is one of the funniest parts of the show; purely childish but funny!
The slide show and the box of memorabilia were also high points of this episode.
It's actually a square mark of dirt after the windows have been improperly 'cleaned'.
More Father Ted please 🌟
More Tea? A Nice Cup Of Tea?
@@percylpaul ah go on! 😉
Yes please, let’s see more of this. Father Ted is comedy at its finest.
There is a second part to this clip. It’s even better.
I found the clip. It’s the 2nd part to what you already reacted to.

Jay father Ted is hilarious, everyone of the programs is just so funny. 👍👊🇬🇧🇺🇸

This clip is even funnier if seen in the context of the whole episode. it was a classic episode in a brilliant programme.
The mysterious square of dirt
Later in that same episode the mark on the window plays its part.
The first thing I ever saw of Father Ted was the scene with the mark on the window
Pissed myself laughing.

Sadly Father Ted (Dermot Morgan) passed away while filming although they had already planned on bringing the series to an end before his death 😢
Actually he died the day after filming finished
@@jackcarter5101 you are indeed correct.
@@jackcarter5101 I can't imagine what it was like for them to have to edit that 3rd series. Such a loss.
Arthur Matthews did the bulk of the writing, Lineham was only involved in 8 of the 25 episodes
NUDEY FATHER JACK!!!
Father Ted is absolutely made of gold.
This was a clip from a half hour episode. You should watch the whole episode from this one. It's classic!
This is just a snippet, it gets so much better. You have to checkout the whole episode 😁
Mate Father Ted was one of the best comedies of the 90's. More shenanigans happen in that episode. Did you notice that square bit of dirt on the window?
Father Ted is one of the few comedies that I can watch again and again, and still laugh every time!
You need to watch the hold episode, it's very well done, he ends up with the Chinese family in a room full of Nazi decorations. It was a brave episode to do in the 90s still stands today as slapstick funny.
Hahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhaha too funny, it’s sad we don’t have satire now that makes fun of everyone. Shame.
Father Ted..... watch it.... goan goan goan goan goan! Every episode is pure gold.
This is only just a tiny clip, the rest of the episode IS SOOO FUNNY, you have to see all of it. 🤣😭
Hilarious series...never bored of it
See if you can find where they are airing the whole series. One of my favourite comedies. The same writers created The IT Crowd afterwards. Almost as good and well worth catching too.
I wonder what he'll think of Father Jack😂
Please note that there was more footage taken out of the middle of this clip. Watch the full episode to get the whole story.
You really need to watch the whole episode! In fact, you really need to binge Father Ted in full. It's so worth it!
Father Ted, One foot in the grave and keeping up appearances were comedy GOLD! This brings back my childhood days 🥰 90s TV was the greatest 💗
Subscribed! Really enjoy your video. Please do more Father Ted. One of the funniest programmes in TV history
You can find the complete Father Ted series on RUclips. It is worth to watch.
Just imagine a small Irish island in 1990s with a catholic priest that always finds trouble, an old drunk retired priest and a young simple minded priest.
It is comedy gold.
Jay you owe it to yourself to see some more Father Ted.
Try and find the clip where he is stood at the window throwing his hands about, It is the same episode, It's absolutely priceless!
British comedy is probably the best there is. I absolutely love it.
Irish actually
Yeah this is Irish. But the writers have written for British shows - they created 'Ted and Ralph' from the Fast Show.
It’s owned by Channel 4 Television. The indoors scenes were filmed in London on studio sets but the outdoors were filmed on location in Ireland
@@jockster247 Also written by an Irishman, and played by Irish actors, but... y'know... semantics...
It just wouldn’t be the same show if it had been written by British people. Father Ted is a send-off of so many Irish social and cultural tropes that go over your head.

Absolutely brilliant series, I can watch them over and over
I grew up with some of the best shows from the British Isles - Father Ted, Allo Allo, Still game, Fawlty towers, Monty Python..... Classic comedy gold
I've never seen this show before. That old lady was going off, funny shit. I'll have to check out more of the show.
This is perhaps my favourite episode of any SitCom.
it starts off like this and get more and more ridiculous. Stunning writing and acting
Hahaha, you have to see the full episode or better yet, all of the episodes. The one where he tries to fix a little dent in his car 🤣
Lost in the ladies lingerie department is a classic 👌

It's frightening how believable all the characters are.

Stopped short, the funniest bit of the sketch is yet to come, he digs himself in even deeper. You should ideally show or watch the rest of that sketch if you can. Very funny comedy series.
I love Father Ted.... will you have a cup of tea now father.... was quoted as i was growing up so much!
a little later in the episode "the Chinese are coming" best line ever, and very ahead of its time
Father Ted is fantastic and so funny. It even has a very young Graham Norton in it too x
This sort of comedy wouldn't go over well these days, what with so many folks so easily offended. They'd be all "Down with this sort of thing!"
It's actually anti-racist, isn't it?
Father Ted was very popular, but also caused a bit of controversy over its religious irreverence!

One of the best Irish comedies, 💚🍀😂
The Irish used to say, in Britain it's a comedy, in Ireland it's a documentary.
The whole show is brilliant. That episode gets even more hilarious.
This was by far the funniest episode, although there were a fair few good ones. The whole episode is well worth watching 👍🏻
This is great as all Father Ted is, but it doesn't even make the top 3 for me. Favourites are a joint top between "Cigarettes, Alcohol & Rollerblading" and "Kicking Bishop Brennan Up The Arse".

Please, watch the second part of it, showing when he wants to apologise.
You should watch the whole episode. It will bring tears to your eyes
Father Ted is epic! My fav clip from this show is "Ireland's Biggest Lingerie Section". You need to check that out, please! I am laughing already by just thinking about it! XD
Top 5 in my personal comedy tv series of 90s, love still game too.
The episode gets even better. A clue to what happens next is the back square of dirt on the window pane that the Chinese family looked through!.......
you should definitely watch the whole episode - the misunderstandings get worse as the story goes on - Season 3, episode 1
Father Ted's hilarious.
Father Ted is one of those comedies that would still be going if not for the untimely death of lead actor Dermot Morgan

Father Ted was AMAZING !
the best scene was the perfectly square bit of dust on the window
He was completely open to being racist, he just didn't have the time for it... i died laughing.
If you check out the full episode. You'll find it's even more crazier than that. The whole series was great. 👍
You have to view the whole episode. Father Ted tries to make things better & digs himself into a deeper hole! I love the line about people living in the Chinese quarter. There’s only about 50 people on the whole island!
A brilliant, evergreen comedy. In some episodes, the characters are based on real people.
your missing out mate Father ted is pure gold and YOU really need to watch them all and all the way through your missing out!
It’s a hilarious show, the end of this episode was absolutely disastrous and hilariously funny 😂
Father Ted when the priests get lost in the ladies underwear department 🤣
