The priest who stood up and said that perhaps they should have a bit of a prayer and maybe God will help us was Graham Linehan, Father Ted creator and writer.
@@thadtuiol1717 Cancelled by being a horrible transphobe and racist. His own family disowned him because while he might be funny, he's also an arsehole. Trans people did nothing to him except show the world what he is actually like.
I'm glad this was said as I was going to comment on it myself. Although Mr Bean is pretty popular in non-English speaking countries (the physical comedy is universal) this joke goes over many peoples heads, even in the UK.
I know that this was supposed to be the gag here, but it doesn't really work as well as it was meant to, because Mr Bean has actual audio adaptations (and even if you didn't know that, the idea of audio storybooks of Mr Bean exploits is barely farfetched, so the joke just doesn't hit that hard)
9:44 Ted was reading Michael Barrymore’s autobiography- Michael Barrymore was a very popular gay game show host in the UK who had an amazing career until a man died in his pool during a party. The man had traces of drugs in his system and had signs of having been sexually assaulted. “No mention of it so far” says ted
The blind guy had a role in "Friday Night Dinner" as a sarcastic and rude piano tuner. Also, "Fearless" with Jeff Bridges is a brilliant film about the aftermath of a plane crash.
Re: smoking on a plane. You could definitely smoke on planes in the 90s. The last time I went on a plane that allowed smoking was in 2001. I was on a flight to Turkey with Air Anatolia (Turkish airline) and they had a smoking section which was divided from the rest of the plane with a curtain. I remember a woman standing behind the curtain smoking while she held her baby on the other side of the curtain with one hand.
You actually watched the S2 Christmas special already before you watched S2 (the one with the priests lost in the lingerie department) in the original broadcast order it comes after this episode. Sadly S3 is the last, Dermot Morgan (Father Ted) died a few hours after the wrap party completed for S3. The writers state they had already decided to end it there, but I think had he lived there would probably have been an occasional Christmas special (probably after a break of a year or two) even if the main run ended here. British shows are produced very different to American shows. They're normally wrote by one writer or a writing partnership and often have a single director for the entire series. The Series (British for Season) normally has 6 episodes perhaps rising to as many as 13 for massive hits. FT getting 10 episodes in its second Series reflects its success. The actors aren't under long term contract and would potentially be involved in several shows and films in the same year. This can often delay filming for the next series as one or more of the principal actors is unavailable due to other commitments so filming has to wait until everyone is available and cast members may simply be wrote out if the delays are too great or the actor has become to successful to be affordable. S5 of Being Human, its final series, contained no cast members from S1 or 2 as the original cast became to successful to be affordable, whilst shows like Doctor Who made cast changing part of the plot and have ran for 60 years. For most shows there can be gaps of a few years between series just to ensure everyone is available. FT had a gap of nearly 2 years between S2 and S3; but other shows have had much larger gaps (Red Dwarf has had only 3 series and 2 specials this century for example). Finally shows tend to end when the writer(s) call time. Its unusual for a show to continue with new writers (it has happened but its rare), normally if the writer is out of ideas the show ends. But show ends aren't necessarily final; an occasional Christmas special can continue the show for years after time was called and occasionally shows can return for a full series after gaps of more than a decade. Sadly S3 of Father Ted has only 8 episodes rather than the 10+1 Christmas special that S2 had. There are some great episodes still to come, including several personal favorites. But that is the end for FT.
Fun fact: The nun next to the big nun throwing the pieces of paper is actually the actress who plays Mrs Doyle. They didn’t have much for her to do so they made her a nun
Graham Linehan, the awkward priest whose friend declared his love to, one of the finest comedy writers of all time. When you’ve completed Ted, give his other series Black Books and The IT Crowd a watch. Love to you both x
I absolutely love Graham Nortons appearances in Father Ted. I'm not like a fan of his particularly or anything but he just nails that character in Father Ted and it tickles my funny bone every time.
@@sargonsblackgrandfather2072 I Don't think not wanting children to have their life destroyed but being put on puberty blockers at the age of 10 horrible, it's called child protection. If you knew anything about the subject, you'd know the hell of a lot of kids being damaged over body dysmorphia. I've seen 1000s of botched operations, lives destroyed and post op regrets followed by suicide to know it's not all rainbows and kisses. With that said, I do fully support Trans, I just believe it should be a adult choice (Not parents) for the person once they reach the age of 18.
I think QB recognised the Monkey Priest from an earlier episode judging by her reaction, surprised KB didn't catch on. It was the episode where they thought Jack had died and the Monkey Priest was climbing the bookshelves.
A very good point about the altitude you can parachute from. You realise what this means? Something in Father Ted... isn't realistic. That's it, it's ruined for me now.
New series suggestion! You guys SERIOUSLY need to watch a British TV Series called 'Faulty Towers'. Written by John Cleese (Monty Python) and his wife at the time, Connie Booth. Fantastic slap-stick humor. I know you guys would love it.
No one else really picks up on the joke with the blind man when he says “I’m listening to comedy on these…. It’s Mr Bean” 😂 The joke being Mr Beans stuff was pretty much a comedy mime artist 😂
Smoking on transatlantic flights was happening in 1993 on British airways,by 1998 smoking was gone on all flights in the u.k, before 93 there was smoking and non smoking areas ✌️♥️🇬🇧
my longest flight was coming home from the army, 14 hours non stop, followed by a 5 hour layover that was in a location about 5 hour drive from home lol
My longest flight was 10 hours (Heathrow to Texas) and then 10 hours back. When I got back, I had to wait 3 hours for a car mechanic to come as it suddenly decided to not work 😂 plus a 5 hour drive home, not a good combo with jet lag 😂
I don't know if you realised, but the priest who acts like a monkey also appeared in the episode where Jack "died" - I remember King Boomer cracking up completely at his walk 😂😂 Actually, this episode is kind of a reunion from the first two seasons - they got a lot of past characters to be among the airplane passengers. If you look closely, you can spot the two priests who visited to watch the sports video last episode; Father Damo the teenage priest from "Old Grey Whistle Theft"; and a black priest who also appeared at Jack's wake after his "death". Father Jack kind of got what he deserved for stealing the parachutes, but I did enjoy him socking the annoying priest at the start! 😂 This is the last episode of Season 2, and unfortunately there are no further specials (although there are two spooky ones that could count as Halloween ones...) Anyway, from now on, we really get into the golden episodes of this show!! Season 3 is the most consistently strong of the three seasons, in my opinion! Next time on _Father Ted:_ Ted discovers a whole new side of Craggy Island, makes some unfortunate impressions, and gets an even less fortunate gift!
King and Queen Boomer's reactions to Father Ted are my favourite, I do think they get more invested in the characters than the average Brit though ie they seemed genuinely peturbed by Father Stack last episode. Have another go at The IT Crowd (same writers), but watch it from the beginning, not just clips. the characters are just as well drawn..
@@jockster247 KB Didn't seem to like the IT crowd clip he viewed, but i think they should give it another go, but in the same depth as they are doing Father Ted. Possibly a good follow up after FT is finished Boomers..
Hi KB I am a fan from England and I have enjoyed your reactions for the last couple of years. English humour is often dry and to the bone. I need to share this with you. A few months ago I was introduced to a series called “INSIDE NO 9”. I had no idea it existed or what to expect but found many of the actors you have enjoyed making a 9 season series of half an hour episodes that will get you hooked after the first. Each episode is individual and there is always a twist. It will play with your mind. A new season has just started. There are many UA-cam discussions about what is the best. For me try 12 days of Christmas The bill Private view Tempting fate The harrowing Regards Gareth from Featherstone West Yorkshire
What about the case of DB Cooper, isn't he supposed to have parachuted from a jet? Very big mystery surrounding that still to this day. That was back in the seventies, I believe.
I remember the 1st time I went on holiday abroad and we flew you could smoke because it was smoking in the front and nonsmoking in the back. That was around 87/88 but the ban came in soon after that maybe 90/91. Both my parents smoked back then and I would watch them trying to get one last smoke in before getting on the plane and not being able to have one for 4 hours or so then lighting up again as soon as they got off at the other end.
My Grandma spent 40 years in a Parish Church House as housekeeper (Basically Mrs Doyle's job Cooking, Cleaning Making the Tea etc). In the mid-90's just after the first episode of Father Ted aired she twisted her ankle and couldn't bring her usual tea tray into the dining room where there were 5 or so priests over for dinner, so she she had to bring the tea out on a trolley and say her usual ''tea fathers?'' - she looks up and sees all 5 of the priests in absolute hysterics to her bewilderment and confusion...as she hadn't even heard of Father Ted. They then had to explain to her who Mrs Doyle was and to watch Father Ted, the priests absolutely loved it 😂😂
I did a tandem skydive to try and overcome my fear of heights. Didn’t work. I screamed like a little girl and wee’d myself, which went on my partner. When we got down I was so apologetic. He said not to worry it happens all the time! 😒
The blind priest was "listening" to Mr Bean... You need to watch some Mr Bean episodes to appreciate that gag. "Fearless" was a movie about plane crash survivors.
I’m ex-cabin crew. The cabin of the aircraft is pressurised so at that altitude, you wouldn’t be able to open the doors of the aircraft. Also, no parachutes are kept onboard commercial aircraft. In the event of an emergency, the captain will look to initiate an emergency landing or ditching followed by evacuation procedures.
The two priests sitting silently at the end credits stinger is not because they are unaware of what's going on. The awkward silence follows a scene ealrier in the episode in which one of the two priests declared his love for the other, because it wouldn't matter if everyone died, but now everyone is going to survive and that secret's out.
In 1988, airlines based in the US banned smoking on domestic flights of less than Two Hours which was extended to domestic flights of less than six hours in February 1990, and to all domestic and international flights in 2000
Queen Boomer was exactly right about it being too cold and too little oxygen up that high, also the plane would be going too fast to safely jump and as soon as he opened the hatch the air pressure would have sucked him (and everyone else) out. However, that was Father Jack so all bets are off.
🤣🤣🤣I can't believe you were arguing about whether Father Jack jumped out of the plane at too high an altitude, then if there was enough oxygen to breathe. The fact that its a plane full of priests and they fix the fuel line with some tape is fine, but jumping out of the plane when it was too high was unbelievable. 🤣🤣🤣
I'm with you on the skydiving bruv, as Clint Eastwood said in Heartbreak ridge, "Why would anybody want to jump out of a perfectly intact plane?" . Hilarious reactions guys.😂
Special forces jump from that high, with breathing apparatus, it's called a halo jump. There is high fatalities, because you are travelling at such velocity, when the person pulls the ripcord it snaps their neck.
The Hudson thing was good flying and fortunately flat water at the time and good response by the passenger, the plane could have broken up oon contact, sully got a good plane attitude and saved everyone ✌️♥️🇬🇧
A commercial flight is usually around 35,000 feet. Everest is just short of 30,000 feet. And a few people have summited without oxygen. Who is to say the plane didn’t drop altitude? I myself have stood on top of Mont Blanc in France/Italy at 15,000 feet. 🤷♂️
😂😂😂 *EVERY* American reactor misses the pure quality of the "listening to Mr Bean joke"... Mr Bean is hilarious yet almost silent comedy sketches - as the Boomers missed that I vote they do a series of Mr Bean reactions - also I *cannot* wait for S3 reactions!!! In my mind S3 is the penultimate - Racism, Speed and humbled with 🇺🇸
Lol you know I must have only seen this episode once and so when he mentioned listening to Mr. Bean I did kinda do a double take of "Oh nice wait what?".
I was on a flight in 1998 which allowed smoking on the back area of the plane so it was definitely still allowed in the 90s. I think 911 probably put a full stop on smoking on flights
Definitely late 80s there was smoking on planes. I remember being one few flights. The back section was designated smoking and separated from non smoking by a curtain lol. I'm not sure when they stopped it.
Pilots of early jet aircraft who ejected at similar heights did indeed suffer anoxia, frostbite and hypothermia. Though at that speed, Father Jack would of been smashed against the tailplane. He would be unhurt but the plane would be destroyed due to his pickled constitution!
Queen Boomer is sort of right - you can parachute from any height (provided there's enough time for the chute to open and slow you down). The reason you can't jump from a commercial plane is not the height/cold/lack of air, but the speed. Commercial flights fly fast enough that attempting to open the chute would destroy it, or if it DID deploy, the deceleration would injure you. Skydiving planes travel WAY slower to make jumping possible - 550mph compared to 100mph.
Other fun fact. Planes now smell worse because the don’t have the air circulation on at all time to get ride of the smoke so now you just sit smelling farts all flight
Queen Boomer, have to disagree with you suggesting everyone should parachute at least once. Whilst happy in a plane, I struggled at the top of the Empire State and even riding the open top bus going across the bridges in New York...heights not for me. Highest point to skydive from without oxygen is circa 14,000 feet x
The priest who stood up and said that perhaps they should have a bit of a prayer and maybe God will help us was Graham Linehan, Father Ted creator and writer.
Co-creator & writer along with Arthur Mathews.
I used to really like that joke until Linehan turned into an insane bigot.

@Randy marsh yes and the final shot of the embarrassed priest.
The fact the blind priest is listening to Mr Bean is such a good joke, lot of people miss it.
Ha never got that...
For those who don't know, Mr. Bean is a slapstick show and the character doesn't talk
I’ve seen every episode of Father Ted at least twenty times and completely missed that joke til you pointed it out! 🤦🏼♀️
I missed it, until you mention it 😅
11:40 listening to Mr Bean on headphones - Mr Bean is more or less a total silent comedy. Some of these jokes can be lost on the Americans
I'm glad this was said as I was going to comment on it myself. Although Mr Bean is pretty popular in non-English speaking countries (the physical comedy is universal) this joke goes over many peoples heads, even in the UK.
Adaptations for deaf people have narrations of the visual bits.

You need to watch some Mr Bean episodes to appreciate that gag.
"Fearless" was a movie about plane crash survivors.
Father Ted was comedic genius.
You had designated smoking seats on planes until the mid 90s, then in the late 90s all the airlines phased them out.
Everybody who has a parachute jump immediately wants to do it again. You'll never regret it.

A commercial flight is usually around 35,000 feet. Everest is just short of 30,000 feet. And a few people have summited without oxygen.
Who is to say the plane didn’t drop altitude?
I myself have stood on top of Mont Blanc in France/Italy at 15,000 feet. 🤷♂️
I just realised which episode is next...
Graham Norton on Eurovision day, ah I think your going sky diving 😀
31:10.. this is Jack's version of hell 😂
The blind priest is Mr greencock from Friday night dinner 😂
Unless you’re either Batman or in the military there’s absolutely no reason to jump out of a perfectly healthy airplane. Period.
😂😂😂 *EVERY* American reactor misses the pure quality of the "listening to Mr Bean joke"... Mr Bean is hilarious yet almost silent comedy sketches - as the Boomers missed that I vote they do a series of Mr Bean reactions - also I *cannot* wait for S3 reactions!!! In my mind S3 is the penultimate - Racism, Speed and humbled with 🇺🇸
Lol you know I must have only seen this episode once and so when he mentioned listening to Mr. Bean I did kinda do a double take of "Oh nice wait what?".
Nice to see the dog doing a Father Jack Impression,"Drink!"
I was on a flight in 1998 which allowed smoking on the back area of the plane so it was definitely still allowed in the 90s. I think 911 probably put a full stop on smoking on flights
Yeah no Christmas special, but in consolation you are about to enter level 3 of Father Ted, which is just the best TV. If you like that kind of thing
I remember taking a long flight to the US in 1994 and you could smoke on the plane but you had to stand at the back by the toilets.
One of them nuns who were throwing paper, was Mrs Doy;e Actress
I first flew to the US from the uk in 1996 and we could smoke but only on the last 4 rows of seats
Yeah you could smoke on planes in the nineties, I remember going to Ibiza in 94 and we we’re smoking . It stopped bout a year or so after that .
Fr Jack has so much drink in him he couldn't get hypothermia.
The priest who stands up and says, shouldn't we all have a little pray, maybe god will save us, his one of the creators of father ted
Definitely late 80s there was smoking on planes. I remember being one few flights. The back section was designated smoking and separated from non smoking by a curtain lol. I'm not sure when they stopped it.
if you watch it and see the Priest at the bottom left sitting down at 37:27 it one of the writers of father ted
My favorite show ever
You already watched the Christmas special (jumped ahead)
As far as i can remember i believe there was a smoking and non smoking areas on a plane in the 90s
Pilots of early jet aircraft who ejected at similar heights did indeed suffer anoxia, frostbite and hypothermia.
Though at that speed, Father Jack would of been smashed against the tailplane. He would be unhurt but the plane would be destroyed due to his pickled constitution!
You're far more likely to be trampled by a herd of stampeding donkeys twice than be in two plane crashes.
Can't wait for you guys to see Season 3 episode 3 and Pat Mustard 😎
Queen Boomer is sort of right - you can parachute from any height (provided there's enough time for the chute to open and slow you down). The reason you can't jump from a commercial plane is not the height/cold/lack of air, but the speed. Commercial flights fly fast enough that attempting to open the chute would destroy it, or if it DID deploy, the deceleration would injure you. Skydiving planes travel WAY slower to make jumping possible - 550mph compared to 100mph.
You forgot to mention that all the passengers would be sucked out...just saying
Having done a number of Skydives as in my photo. Any jump above 15,000 feet requires oxygen.
Queen really brings skydiving to life! I'm more hooked now.
You could smoke on planes in the 90s I was there smoking like a trooper round the world😂😂😂
I think it depended on where you were flying from, if your legislature was sponsored by the tobacco lobby you could smoke on the plane.
Watch S3E3: Speed 3. Imagine Dougal in the Keanu Reeves role!
The priest who gets up at 18:16 and says, "maybe we should have a little old pray." is the creator and writer if this show, Graham Linehan.
Other fun fact. Planes now smell worse because the don’t have the air circulation on at all time to get ride of the smoke so now you just sit smelling farts all flight
You could definitely smoke on planes in the 80s, 90s.
The SAS developed a method called HALO jumping (high altitude, low openning) to avoid being detected by radar. They used breathing apparatus
Queen Boomer, have to disagree with you suggesting everyone should parachute at least once. Whilst happy in a plane, I struggled at the top of the Empire State and even riding the open top bus going across the bridges in New York...heights not for me. Highest point to skydive from without oxygen is circa 14,000 feet x
❤ Love that gorgeous dog ❤😊
1998 smoking was banned on planes in the uk.
