Boardsies Decide: The Greatest Father Ted Character.... EVER

Redser87

Fr Noel. Irritating yes, but he achieved so much in that one episode.

Seven Septs

Even from this juncture it appears that Fr. Noel Furlong and Your Grace, Bishop Len Brennan are the bookies favorites. Hard to see anyone troubling them. Ted? Unctious? Dick Byrne... a dark horse?

If the draw puts Furlong v Brennan, given voter comments, it will be neck and neck.

Just in case you weren’t aware he appears in 3 episodes - Hell, The mainland (which is kind of a repeat performance of Hell) and the Airplane one which I can’t remember the name of.

It’s Ted Vs one of the above in the final for sure.

It’s all down to how nasty or otherwise Necro will be with their play-offs to get there- We all have our favourite finalists but who will get the chop before then?

Fr Dick Byrne

Just because

Seven Septs

Ted. Just a nod to the great work of the late Dermot Morgan.

Go count your sour grapes Dick!

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Ted - tough shout, but gonna stick with the main man on this one for Dermot Morgan's performance alone

TED!

There wouldn't BE a Fr. Ted without Ted

JP Liz V1

Ted over his nemesis Dick

Go Ted!

I was thinking of Hell but mea culpa

Necro

Yeah it's been an ecumenical matter since the first 5 mins of voting really. Ted slaps Dick Byrne out of the contest with a 14 - 1 mauling

Necro

Match 4

Well Len has been fairly flawless so far but so has his opponent. This one could be interesting...


Fr. Todd Unctious






VS


Bishop Brennan

Redser87

Also, Ted. Couldn't allow him to be beaten by Fr. Dick. BYRNE.

Seven Septs

Bishop Brennan

Len! I mean Bishop Brennan

quickbeam

Todd because I'd rather have a beer with him.

Brennan. He has a lovely arse

No mea culpa necessary at all- was only reminding you or letting you know in case you weren’t aware or forgot - figured you were referring to “Hell”

lassykk

Bishop Brennan 100%

the purple tin

Both great characters and actors.

Len noses ahead for his repeat appearances and his excellent put-downs.

Bishop Brennan - archetype of the bastard bishop who set back Ireland centuries, His Bastardness John Charles McQuaid coupled with Eamonn Casey philandering - all in one character- it doesn’t get better than that.

This is a tough one.


Decisions, decisions...


Feck it. Todd.

Yeah just forgot the other two... will have to atone by watching them all again I suppose!

Omackeral

Bishop Brennan is far more memorable and memeable

Purgative

Bishop Brennan

the purple tin

'You couldn't organise a nun-shoot in a nunnery'

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Bishop Len - because he's class and I want him to win the lot
