Continuity mistake: The lamps on either side of the door to the house are not there in some scenes - most noticeably in the opening credits, but in other scenes they are there.
Father Ted (1995)
1 mistake in show generally
Starring: Ardal O'Hanlon, Dermot Morgan, Frank Kelly, Pauline McLynn
Genres: Comedy
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: In this episode, the actor who plays the priest who turns into a hippy seems to drop his accent occasionally, for instance when he says "Blind faith, that's all we have to go on", his accent sounds more London-ish when he says "go on". Is this normal for an Irish accent or what?
