#OTD in 1965 – Birth of comedian and actor, Ardal O’Hanlon, in Co Monaghan.

Ardal O’Hanlon was born in 1965 in Carrickmacross, Co Monaghan, the son of Rory O’Hanlon, a politician and doctor, and has five siblings. RTÉ’s Who do you think you are? programme on Monday 6 October 2008 examined Ardal’s family tree. He discovered that his paternal grandfather, Michael O’Hanlon, a UCD medicine student, had joined the Irish Republican Army during the Irish War of Independence and…

Fr. Ted: Small, Far Away

I can never have or read a discussion about perspective in art or photography without Ted and Dougal and “small vs. far away” playing on an endless loop in my head.

dougal is a popular dog name because of the movie The Magic Roundabout ^-^

it was originally a tv show from the 60s, i didnt realise it was a popular dog name til lots of older people asked me if it's a reference ... much before my time, i didnt bother existing for about another 40 years.

Adding to my Dougal propaganda; Reasons Why Father Dougal McGuire Qualifies as a Sad Priest

He was exiled by the diocese for an incident where he performed a Baptism that went wrong and “irreperably damaged” several nuns

He has no known relatives who are alive; His parents and uncle are dead

He was struck by lightning a few times as a kid and never taken to the hospital, also implied he never went to a hospital even when he’s sick

This also heavily implies his parents were either absent, already dead, or abusive

Doesn’t know the difference between fiction and reality therefore he’s easily manipulated

Literal saint, kind-hearted with no ill intention, the most loyal and the nicest character in the series yet usually treated poorly due to his lack of understanding of most things. He’s trying his very best, but sometimes his best isn’t enough and it gets into other people’s nerves which results in him getting yelled at, mostly by Ted (heavily implied to be autistic)

Survived getting hit by a car while riding a bike, wrongly arrested for shoplifting, stuck in a building fire, fell into a den of tigers and mauled (all of these are mentioned in the same episode)

Literally cannot feel physical pain; His arm was twisted and bitten yet he felt nothing

Acts as Ted’s moral compass constantly but fails as he’s so loyal and obedient to him

The only time he displayed negative emotions was when he was on the verge of tears when he thought Ted was leaving him behind in the final episode

Is terrified of women (gay? AroAce? perhaps)

Was almost killed because he wanted to help out the local milkman after revealing a scandal of one of their employees

Framed by his other best friend for a crime he wasn’t even aware of

Cannot perform a single mass or service alone without potentially killing several people (i.e. He tried to do a funeral and it ended up crashing the car onto the coffin and the car exploding, presumably killing the driver) (this is more funny than sad but imagine being a priest not able to do the one thing you’re supposed to do)
