Description:
Join Fathers Ted, Dougal and Jack, three Irish priests exiled by the church to their own private purgatory, a twisted lump of rock called Craggy Island, as penance for indulging their daft vices. With the help of the world's most devoted housekeeper, Mrs. Doyle, they tend a demented flock of island dwellers and try to make a heaven out of their rocky piece of hell.

This five-disc DVD set includes every episode from the outrageous, award-winning comedy series, plus the hour-long holiday special 'A Christmassy Ted'.

Amazon.com:
Father Ted is one of those rare sitcoms that defies categorization--it owes as much to Flann O'Brien and Samuel Beckett as it does to Monty Python--and its blend of satire, character comedy, and anarchic surrealism has made it a cult favorite around the world. Exiled to remote Craggy Island, Father Ted Crilley shares a house with the breathtakingly stupid Father Dougal and the constantly inebriated Father Jack, who has a small vocabulary and a taste for furniture polish. Their housekeeper, Mrs. Doyle, takes care of them with a never-ending supply of tea and sandwiches: 'Go on now, Father, won't you try one? They're diagonal.' Together they fight boredom by dressing up as Elvis, startling ducks at the fair, and provoking nuns. This set compiles the entire three-year series. --Simon Leake
