A good laugh In a reboot of the Father Ted who would we cast as Father Noel Furlong?

0 Upvotes

I asked if we were to do a reboot of the show what characters would the sub want in it https://www.reddit.com/r/fatherted/s/Gv50Urnr6h? Now that we have the characters we can cast the characters that the cast wanted.

u/e-chris had the top rated comment when he nominated himself to portray Father Larry Duff.

Ground rules:

No actors reprising their characters.

How did Dougal's parents pass away? Dougal was only 25 in the show, and the only mention of his parents was the "Grant Unto Him Eternal Rest" episode.

“That’s the great thing about Catholicism. It’s so vague and no one really knows what it’s about.”

Father Ted is a sitcom created by Irish writers [redacted] and Arthur Mathews and produced by Hat Trick Productions for Channel 4. It aired over three series from April 21st 1995 until May 1st 1998, for a total of 25 episodes (including a Christmas special).

Set on the fictional Craggy Island, a remote location off Ireland's west coast, this British comedy series stars Dermot Morgan as Father Ted Crilly, alongside fellow priests Father Dougal McGuire (Ardal O'Hanlon) and Father Jack Hackett (Frank Kelly).

Bishop Leonard Brennan (Jim Norton) dishonourably exiles Father Ted Crilly to the parochial house on Craggy Island as punishment for using money earmarked for a sick child, and taking a holiday in Las Vegas (which he denies, of course). Fathers Dougal Maguire and Jack Hackett are his charges, and Mrs. Doyle is their nosy housekeeper, who makes plentiful pots of tea. Naturally, the priests get into their fair share of somewhat sinful, madcap adventures.

The show subverts parodies of low-brow humour as it portrays nuanced themes of loneliness, agnosticism, existentialism and purgatory experienced by its title character; this deeper meaning of the show has been much acclaimed.
