Graham Linehan ate the head off an Irish journalist who criticised Father Ted last night
AS YOU MAY have heard, the 20th anniversary of Father Ted is tomorrow.
As such, a lot of Irish people have been on a bit of a nostalgia trip over the past few days.
Last night, Irish football journalist Miguel Delaney was discussing the merits of Father Ted with a follower.
During the exchange, Delaney stated that he thought the third season of the sitcom was inferior to the rest of the series.
Unfortunately for him, Graham Linehan and Arthur Mathews were copied in on the exchange and let’s just say that Linehan was not best pleased with Delaney’s assessment.
