[@sarahwoolley79]

The whole series has never aged. Good on Neil for playing this still!

How cool to be able troll yourself and lift the vibe beautifully while also maintaining a sense of dignity.

[@tonyskilbeck8663]

The feelings I have just experienced listening to that are amazing. Nostalgia being one but jealousy being the prevailing one. I bet that was an amazing night👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@garymoore6041]

Thank goodness for Neil Hannon

[@gingerking76]

Utter genius😂👍🏻

[@garymoore6041]

The song reminds you of the scene and you smile at the rapport between Ted and Dougal.

[@WhiffTheRubbishEngine1869]

This is my favourite song and that fact will never change! Now I have a full version. Thank you!

Given the state of this years Eurovision Divine Comedy should sing it next year it’s a great catchy song and might actually win

[@gberreta4058]

Brilliant.

[@the_grand_tourer]

Try and explain this to an alien who has just landed. ‘Well there is this thing called tv, and comedy, and vicars on a rocky island, this guy he plays music, the vicars who are actually comedians try to be musicians … ah feck !’

[@monsieur62]

This is just absolutely fantastic, aside from that episode being one of the funniest things EVER, the tune is genuinely catchy not to mention hilarious. Brilliant!

[@Simonm9020]

Brilliant 😁👍

Our patient Queen was waiting for this to be played live, before she could graciously expire. Well done, Ma'am
