King of the Sheep Festival | Father Ted S3 E2 | Absolute Jokes

Ted must nurture Chris the Sheep through the King of the Sheep Festival while a beast terrorizes Craggy Island.
Beloved sitcom focused on three priests living on Craggy Island, a remote island off the west coast of Ireland. Father Ted Crilly is sent to the island as punishment for using charitable funds for a holiday in Las Vegas, but his true punishment comes in the form of Father Dougal Maguire and Jack Hackett, one a fresh-faced naive young priest, and the other a foul-mouthed, rage-filled alcoholic. Mrs Doyle is their nosy housekeeper, who makes plentiful pots of tea and never takes `no' for an answer. Despite their isolation, the priests get into their fair share of mildly sinful, entirely madcap adventures.

Watching Frank Kelly frolic with the puppies is pretty much the best thing ever.

So happy that got past the censors - this is my all-time favorite episode for so many reasons...my stomach hurts by the end of the episode from laughing so much!

[@3leggedsharkkickssurferinballs]

The fact that that exact same soundbite is used twice in a row during Ted's spiel there makes it even funnier!

I loved the "Who Done It" Father Ted with him wrapping up everything at the end like a real detective! Priceless. My god Dougal's idiocy knows no bounds.... he's wonderful! Thanks DP!

[@henryhammond7393]

This was the episode where the show really started to go off the rails in the best way possible. I mean, the first two seasons were surreal and hilarious but season 3 just takes it to eleven. 🤣

[@nmfp2943]

This is the Hound of the Baskervilles, Craggy island style😂

[@theyellowlightsaber3193]

its also parodying alot of those old murder mysteries where the priest solves crimes like Grantchester or Father Brown

Dougal is not smart or intelligent enough to be President of the United States. If he were President and ran the country, he would be a total disaster.

@@danielwilliamson6180 Yeah. Where did this comment come from? I'd love to hang out w/ Dougal!

[@danielwilliamson6180]

@@amandareusser6121 The episode has a moral message to it: Be careful with people you are friends with. Father Damo is one of those people who could stab you in the back and influence you to do bad things. This is what Ted tells Dougal at the end of the episode and asks Dougal if he learnt anything for what has happened, Dougal says "No". Dougal hung out with the wrong person.

He said that as a priest he had an intuitive understanding of "sheep" meaning the people that the people that follow religion more specifically Catholicism are sheep

[@jorgegomezespinosa8192]

​@@AlinxavierI don't think he meant it in a derogative way, it was most likely that he truly thought he had an intuitive knowledge of sheep, or because he is a priest, he acts as a shepherd (which is a biblical symbol)
