  • Summary

  • Joe Rooney (Fr. Damo) and Patrick McDonnell (Eoin McLove) each appeared on one episode of much-loved TV show Father Ted and yet, over 25 years later, they are recognised today for those fondly-remembered characters more than anything else. It’s safe to say, the place of Father Ted in Irish cultural history is assured! Each episode of the HeadStuff original podcast Talking Ted is an exploration of the series with a glimpse behind the scenes as contributors from the show share their memories, stories and insights into what made Father Ted the iconic sitcom it has become. Special guests include Ardal O'Hanlon, Pat Shortt, Jon Kenny, Arthur Matthews, and the actors who played many of the loveable characters such as Sister Asumpta, Mary from John and Mary, Fr. Stone, Bishop Brennan, Todd Unctious, Fr. Dick Byrne, and many more. For any sponsorship inquiries contact advertising@headstuff.org
