1 continuity mistake in A Christmassy Ted
Starring: Ardal O'Hanlon, Dermot Morgan, Frank Kelly, Pauline McLynn
Genres: Comedy
Cigarettes and Alcohol and Rollerblading - S2-E8
Visible crew/equipment: When Ted and Dougal look into the window of Dick Byrne's house, the rope pulling Father Cyril's skateboard is visible. (00:21:50)
Father Ted: What would you say is behind tomorrow's window, Father Jack?
Father Jack: A pair of feckin' women's knickers.
Trivia: In the scene where Mrs. Doyle is telling Ted about the profanity in the book, several of the swears were not in the original script but were introduced by Pauline McLynn during filming. You can see Dermot Morgan trying not to laugh at her last line "Ride me sideways", which he hadn't been expecting.
Question: Why was Father Ted wearing fake hands at the over 75 football game? Why not just use his own hands?

Answer: Ted was using his real hands to control Father Jack's wheelchair using a remote control - the fake arms were so no-one would see him cheating.
