Press
Seasons come and seasons go, but the show Michael Gove calls "pure genius", the omega to Father Ted's alpha, remains defiantly unchanged, even at Christmas, despite the addition of a bit of tinsel on the set. Father Damien sets up a Neighbourhood Watch patrol; Cathy has another terrible internet date ("I need a man!" Mrs Brown: "Don't look at me!") and there's a whole lot of fecking going on. In a word: untaxing.
