Just twigged it now - the Minister for hardship v. the Minister for War??? Shows how far ahead Frank was. Again, thank you.

[@Lar308]

Ah God - this brings back memories of simpler happy days in my teens watching on our black and white TV on the single RTE TV station. Thanks for posting it up - not sure how long it will stay up. I already have the DVD.

[@ciaran5588]

I was 8 in '77 & I remember watching this back then. I hope the Minister For Hardship is on We need him now!!

1977😢😥 My father passed away suddenly @ 56. Leaving a large family for my mother to rear. An amazing lady. ❤ May they both R.I.P.

[@nejuw]

Brilliant!

[@daveroche6522]

Thank you, thank you, thank you - Halls Pic became obligatory viewing in our household, simply because it was so good. Frank really had his finger on the pulse (of the corpse) - if memory serves, he'd spend Tuesday mornings in the car in the RTE carpark writing/refining the script, so all the actors (the excellent Eamon, Fr. Jack etc.) only had a few hours to memorise/rehearse before recording. Fantastic! And yes, it brings back the memories - pure joy, with some iconic characters.

Hahaha Required WATCHING WHEN I WAS YOUNG.... 😛

[@irishmiketully6420]

Great memories.

[@clareomalley5644]

If only Frank Hall had been around during the Haughey era !

[@45blond]

Brilliant brilliant fun

[@georgel74]

What a great actor Frank Kelly was...

[@FrankOBrien-ti7ny]

Most underrated comic from our country. Never liked Fr. Ted because of Fr. Jack. Frank was so much more than that but I suppose the money was good.

18:29 What is Drisheen?

[@jimosullivan4866]

black pudding

[@LarryFogarty]

@@jimosullivan4866 you cant say black anymore..just say it aint white pudding

[@Lar308]

No drisheen is not the same as black pudding. Drisheen has an altogether lighter consistency - from wiki - the description sounds horrific but it is a delicious food. "Drisheen (Irish: drisín) is a type of blood pudding made in Ireland. It is distinguished from other forms of Irish black pudding by having a gelatinous consistency. It is made from a mixture of cow's, pig's or sheep's blood, milk, salt and fat, which is boiled and sieved and finally cooked using the main intestine of an animal (typically a pig or sheep) as the sausage skin."
