This latest episode was like a very poor re-hash of the 'Father Ted' episode 'Hell'.

I loathe that episode. I quite enjoyed the caravan scenes in this.
Father Ted did a far superior episode in a caravan.
They didn't.
Fight!

They did.
(Are we talking about the one with the cows being small and/or far away?)
Yup.
Well that bit was ace, but I can't remember a thing about the rest of the episode.
Graham Norton doing RiverDance?
Ahhhhhhh, it's all rushing back!
Anyway, the Royles episode wasn't all that similar then!
Exactly - The Father Ted episode was funny.

I had hoped that Andy Whyment and Geoffrey Hughes would appear...it was good to see Jessica Hynes and Ralf Little again...maybe that's why I liked the first bit...for me the nadir was the time-wasting "it's not about the eggcup" and the further time wasting "Goodnight Denise...goodnight James..." ad nauseum.
The Magic Road and St Kevin's Stump! 
Genius!

Oh no they didn't.
