Kevin McKidd: It's nice to be in a Christmas show that's not Father Ted

Starring in CBBC drama Primrose Railway Children, McKidd said: "The only thing that I'm in that's regularly on telly at Christmas time is the Father Ted Christmas Special - it keeps getting repeated. But that was 27 years ago so it's time for a refresh."

Celebrating 25 years of Father Ted's hilarity

Twenty-five years ago today, a phenomenon burst upon our television screens. The first showing of Father Ted on Channel 4 brought us the strange and very, very funny world of Craggy Island and its trio of priests with their housekeeper.
