2:45 - This is actually a real hymn being sung here called "God Is Working His Purpose Out" composed in 1894 and being destroyed by Martin Brown in 1992 on KYTV.
@@TheGerkuman I have recently discovered KYTV. I was 7 when series 2 aired, but never saw it. I heard about it, and just love it. Back when the BBC were not afraid to do satire.
Love it!!! Watch all the episodes - its up at the TOP of the list of great comedy shows along with Blackadder and Harry Enfield! The original radio series called RADIO ACTIVE can sometimes be heard on on BBC Radio 4 Extra 8.19 UK
Agreed, superb comedy, the first two series were brilliant i did think the change of style in the third series led to a slight drop in quality and it was probably wise to stop there
Also he took the idea of Martin Brown being covered in manure at 3:52 and did the same to Father Ted and Father Dougal in the episode Hell from the second series.
Bloody great. I really enjoyed that. Thanks for uploading

Better than his presenting though! He stays mostly in tune!

The Reverend Wright surely one of the teams most polished characterisations.
Love it!!!

This was paving the way for the day today. ( radioactive and on the hour , in former , audio incarnations )
Classic early 90's comedy
Rabbi Rabbit!!
I'd love to see an order or nuns who wear colors like that at the beginning.
21:32 = That's Ayub Khan din, actor / playwright (of East is East fame).
A few scenes from 17:55 recycled (but made funnier) for Father Ted/My Lovely Horse (the late great Geoffrey Perkins produced both).

Superm feem by P.P. !
