- Quotes
Father Dougal McGuire: I just want to ask you a question.
Father Ted Crilly: Oh, not again, Dougal. Look, when a man and a lady are very much in love...
Father Dougal McGuire: No, no! No, I didn't want to ask that, Ted, I just wanted to ask you, do you believe in an afterlife?
Father Ted Crilly: Do I what?
Father Dougal McGuire: Do you believe in an afterlife?
Father Ted Crilly: Well, Dougal, generally speaking, priests tend to have a very strong belief in the afterlife.
Father Dougal McGuire: Oh, I wish I had your faith, Ted.
Father Ted Crilly: Dougal, how did you get into the church? Was it like "collect twelve crisp packs and become a priest"?

Absolutely hilarious, when they think Jack's been drinking the floor cleaner, he has in fact slipped away. You get to see just how amazing an actor Dermot was, his monologue was terrific.
The trip through memory lane is very funny, Jack's scenes are hilarious, a man of very traditional values, the game of charades is a scream, but the best laugh comes when the inevitable happens at the end.
It's been a wonderful first series, this finale was a joy.
The days when comedy was daring. 9/10
