- TriviaDuring the wrap party that followed the taping of the final episode, Ardal O'Hanlon's father, a general practitioner, expressed concern about Dermot Morgan. He noticed that he appeared unwell, and he told him to see his doctor as soon as possible. Less than 24 hours later, Morgan suffered a massive and fatal heart attack.
- GoofsThe Blind Priest on the Plane says he's laughing at the "Mr Bean" he's listening to with his headphones. But Mr Bean is Visual Comedy. This is a joke, wholly in character for a show like "Farther Ted".

Father Jack Hackett: Drink! Feck! Arse! Girls!
- Crazy creditsThe sixth episode of the second season begins with the usual credits, but instead of Father Ted, the title reads: Father Ben. It then cuts to Dougal sitting in front of the TV, watching Father Ben. Ted comes in and makes fun of the character of Father Ben, saying he has no self-awareness at all. It then cuts to the normal credits.

Featured review
Never has there been a comedy series like this and never will there be one like this again. I've never been an avid fan of Father Ted (don't know why) but as a person who doesn't watch that much television anymore this certainly gives me an excuse to turn the tv on and be entertained. Has done for years. Extremely unique and funny i would gladly sit down and watch a Father Ted marathon and watch every episode back to back. What is rare for a tv programme/movie is that i actually havn't met a single person who dislikes Father Ted! My favourite episode is the one where the whistle gets stolen. Fantastic. Shame there will be no more series but thank ourselves lucky they made three fantastic series. An all time great.
