Father Ted (TV Series) Hell (1996) User Reviews

Comedy gold.

[Sleepin_Dragon · 10/10 · 11 December 2020]

Series two opens up with a classic episode, Hell is one of the most hilarious, laugh out loud episodes of the show, it doesn't let up for a minute.

Graham Norton was a superb piece of casting, if anyone could play an infuriating, annoying little twerp, it was Norton, even Ted wanted to get away from him. Not the last we'd see of him.

Jack as always provides moments of hilarity, great to see his dream come true. It's the exploits of Ted and the naked man that cause the major laughs, painfully funny.

Perfect, 10/10.

Hilarious. TV's funniest Episode ever aired.

[ScreenReviews · 10/10 · 19 January 2021]

Hell, the first episode of the second Series of the hit Irish TV Show Father Ted, is the funniest thing ever made. I could stop there, but there are so many moments that make this episode truly classic; the Priests continually metting the young couple embrassingly, Father Jack's rant about feet and cake, our first introduction to Father Larry Duff, Tom driving the Seweage Truck, Father Noel Furlongs youth group... the list goes on, every moment is Comedy gold. It's also the series's most quotable episode: "Small, far away" has gone down in history as one of the shows defining lines, and "Are those my feet" is a truly gut-busyingly hilarious moment. Overall, my favourite episode of the series and comedy at its peak.

Best Momment: Noel Furlong and the Youthclub Irish Dancing, Father Larry Duff crashing his car, Father Jack's box... its impossible to chose. Best Quote: "Are those my feet!" Placement in Father Ted rank: #1 Final Rating: 10/10

'These are small, but the ones out there are far away'

[MrJRGO · 19 May 2020]

Yet another one of the many Father Ted episodes that I can watch time and time again without ever tiring of it. There are numerous scenes which linger on in the memory and the episode includes one of Ted's most quotable lines as he tries, and fails, to educate Dougal.

Top quality Ted and Dougal interaction throughout, as their day just gets worse and worse with each scene. Just when you think their fortunes have to change for the better, things deteriorate even further.

The writing is simple and yet so clever, allowing for the use of the most basic of props for a joke and the most innocuous of situations to become completely chaotic.

The two leads are also very well supported by a great cast, including Graham Norton as the hyperactive Father Noel Furlong.

Caution required though. Includes scenes of a naked man's hairy, bare bottom.
