OF ALL THE Irish cultural institutions, Father Ted is perhaps the hardest for others to truly get their head around.
So, step forward the American writers for Buzzfeed to attempt to watch our nation’s favourite comedy.
It didn’t start out great
And the intro shocked them a little
All in all, first impressions of Craggy Island weren’t the best
But Mrs Doyle got two thumbs up
The pronunciation of film was always going to be a stumbling block
The Irish humour got an approving nod though
And most of them agreed that John and Mary were a delight
And feck might finally start making it internationally
The overall reaction was mixed, but they’ll all be hooked soon
Enjoy:
Next, they’ll be showing them episodes of Glenroe and we’ll really be in trouble.
