Hard to believe the next day Dermot Morgan suffered a heart attack and died. He did not look sick at all. Hard to believe he was not a smoker. His memory will live on.
Great! ... It is quite hard to watch, knowing it Dermot's last performances on the show, the ending is beautiful tho, really pays tribute to a legend.
I only recently discovered Father Ted. When I learned of the passing of Dermot Morgan it was like losing a new friend before really getting to know him. Rest well Dermot and thanks for the laughs. :(
I've never seen this show on TV in the US. Today on youtube was actually the first time I ever saw this show. What a great show. I'm glad to have come across it. Thanks for the vids.
The ending they filmed originally was for Ted to join the other priest on the ledge (that we saw in the 1st scene), to contemplate suicide, he says: 'move up a bit'. The writers opted this was in bad taste as Dermot Morgan had just died, so opted for a montage of clips of the best of to make this ironic and fitting tribute. This is noted in the Father Ted script book.
I think they originally had an ending where Ted and the depressed priest from the beginning were both on the window ledge of a building, about to jump off. After Dermot Morgan died, they changed it to the end that was broadcast.
I never said he wasnt, asshole...but he would make a crap priest...thats obvious...but he did make an excellent comical actor...so your kinda in the wrong callin me a gobshite...wanker!
I am so sorry for my previous comment! I only meant to insult someone who called Father Ted a crap priest. I apologise dearly, I do not mean to offend anyone other than those who mock this excellent show.
Was that right? I never realised he died so soon after the show. I remember reading years ago in the paper he died while starting the next series. If only he was still here.....I still reckon he would have us all laughing!
Yeah, The origonal ending of this episode and the series was for Ted to commit suicide with Kevin when he realised he would be on the island forever but because Dermot died before it aired, they never showed that ending and changed it to a montage and Ted saying goodnight.
I read it not long after Dermot died. If you ever read another comment by me, you can safely assume anything I say is true to the best of my knowledge. I'm not one to try and pass off false info :P
My goodness what a great ending edit. I am sure the whole cast and crew had a ball filming the show. I nearly have a tear in my eye.
Close the curtains while the crowd is roaring. RIP Dermot.

Dermot didn't smoke, as it happens (I was surprised about that); they were herbal cigarettes that he was given to smoke in the series.
