There was no average Father Ted episode each of them was stuffed with challenges endless rain, lustful rabbits, clerics crashing through windows, sheep doubles, collapsing crosses and a neverending stream of eccentric priests and the work that went into its creation was often nearly as bizarre as what was happening on screen.Picnic on Craggy Island is a hugely affectionate and anecdotal account of what lay behind some of those moments of comic genius so pull on your kagoule, spread out your blanket, unwrap the sandwiches (theyre all egg) and enjoy the picnic...
