Best of Father Fintan Stack

[@SleepyHeather]

The writers originally wanted Fr. Stack to be a younger, angrier, shoutier version of Jack. BrendanGrace playing him as this soft-voiced psychopath made him 1000x better

[@sfeewrfsf2578]

It's a lovely sentiment - but remember - it's 'Brendan' not Brenda.

The real comic. Nuance. Menace. And still fun. Few might have expected such a character to emerge from Brendan Grace - he did a great selection in his Stand-up routines but they always veered away from dark. Here he so easily drifted to dark and of course proved how much fun he might have given to a career in TV or Film. He even made Frank Sinatra laugh.....
