Feckin' great: Gary Astley (centre) shares a joke with Father Ted writers Arthur Mathews (left) and Graham Linehan at the start of the second week-long annual Father Ted festival, which started in Kilfenora, Co Clare, on February 25, and moved to Inis Mór on February 29 until yesterday. Kilfenora was the location for the priest's house and where many of the scenes were shot for the cult Channel 4 sitcom, which ran from 1995-1998
