Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which oppressively boring priest has stayed at the house every year for six years?

Answer: Paul Stone

In the episode "Entertaining Father Stone" he visits the house and Ted prays that God will get rid of him. The next day they are playing crazy golf and he is struck by lightning.
2. What is the name of Ted's friend who he always calls at the worst possible moment?

Answer: Larry Duff

He has called him while Larry was skiing (he fell down the mountain), when he was recovering from falling down the mountain (the noise caused an avalanche) and when he was a little bit away from winning a lot of money on the buzz wire game (where you have to move a hoop round a piece of wire without them touching).
3. Who plays Bishop "Don't call me Len!" Brennan? (Clue: He has the same surname as another actor who has appeared on the show.)

Answer: Jim Norton

Norton is also the surname of Graham Norton who appeared as Father Noel Furlong. I made the other names up; Wilson is from Richard Wilson who played himself in "The Mainland", O'Hanlon is from Ardal O'Hanlon who of course played Dougal and Grogan is from Claire Grogan who played Niamh Connolly in "Rock A Hula Ted."
4. Who is known as the dancing priest?

Answer: Liam Finnegan

He appears in "Think Fast, Father Ted." A raffle is held to raise money to fix the house roof. Bishop Brennan provides a car but they wreck it and so borrow Father Liam Finnegan's.
5. Which priest appeared in "The Mainland," "Hell" and "Flight Into Terror"?

Answer: Noel Furlong

Played by Graham Norton he is a rather hyper-active priest who always seems to have been given the task of looking after someone (the youth group, Father Fintan Fay), though God knows why. "Who can screech the loudest? Hmm? Let's have a screeching competition! I'll go first! Arrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhhhh!"
6. In "Chirpy Burpy Cheap Sheep" what is the name of the main sheep star (his character's name)?

Answer: Chris

Ted is keen to keep an eye on his welfare because he bet their entire heating budget on Chris winning the "King of the Sheep" contest.
7. Who accompanies Bishop Brennan to the parochial house in "Kicking Bishop Brennan Up The Arse"?

Answer: Father Jessop

He has the distinction of being the most sarcastic priest in the world. I respect that.
8. What is the name of the milkman in "Speed 3?"

Answer: Pat Mustard

Ted gets Pat Mustard fired after noticing the number of babies on Craggy Island who bear more than a passing resemblance to him. "I'm a very careful man Father, a very careful man." "Not when it comes to taking precautions in the bedroom!" "Ah...now you wouldn't be advising the use of artificial contraception now would you Father?" "Yes I!...I mean no, I don't really...well if you're going to be...just feck off!"
9. In which episode does Father Fintan Stack appear?

Answer: New Jack City

Jack goes off to be treated for hairy hands at St Clabbert's Old Priests' Home and Father Fintan Stack is his replacement. Unfortunately he is a psycho whose pastimes include listening to jungle music and drilling holes.
10. What is the name of the priest who offers to take Ted to America?

Answer: Father Buzz Cagney

He does this after becoming deeply impressed when Ted talks down Father Kevin from a window ledge. Ted asks Father Kevin back to Craggy Island. He tries to cheer him up, but without success until he himself gets really happy and puts on "Shaft." Father Kevin becomes really upbeat and leaves. Unfortunately for him while he is on the bus the new Radiohead song comes on the radio...
