Great acting in this scene. One of the best TV programs of all time

What really gets me (well, ONE of the things) is how much Peter is a part of the Ballyk community, by "The Reckoning". He's shifted from priest to friend (though he did that quite early on) and he looks like any other babysitter, except that he'll never have a child of his own. He fits in perfectly, but he's alone.
And he borrows the Irish accent at times ("Ah, go ahn" and in response to Assumpta, "Am I?") Is this a sign of Ballyk being 'home'? Which makes the coming tragedy all the worse?

@ETrevar And this damned music. Puts a lump im throat every time.

I love this moment but it makes me cry coz in the whole three series this is the closest Peter gets to kissing her before she gets electrocuted and dies :'(
-
@ETrevar Wow. That's a very, very good observation. I'm a scriptwriter, and I stopped by to watch this as it is my favorite scene of all time. Love it. Pitch perfect.

Peter's age and the years it takes to become a priest almost certainly mean he's a virgin and has probably never had physical intimacy with a woman. His hesitation before really kissing her neck speaks volumes. To be rejected at that delicate moment is torturous. But Assumpta does the right thing. To continue -- making love to a priest in her best friends' home -- would damage them both and she can't and won't let herself be responsible for that, no matter how much she desires him.

My dear Peter.

I wish this ended more happily.
Who has a crush on Father Peter (besides me)? raise your hand.

although i was disappointed that they never kissed on the lips, the fact that their first kiss ever is him kissing her neck is just unbelievably sexy . three seasons of faint hints and then something SO intimate all of a sudden! knocked off my feet
