highly recommended

Life is a challenge for any priest in a small mountain town and Father Peter Clifford has just arrived from London with high expectations and not even a drivers license to help him navigate the rocky road to salvation in Ballykissangel. His arrival is as much of a shock to Peter as it is to the local residents who are forced to come to terms with his youthful energy and down-to-earth style. Beautiful barkeep Assumpta Fitzgerald owns a car but loathes organized religion and she lets him know it as they drive up the mountain to give the last rites to a dying parishioner. And he clashes repeatedly with powerful landowner Brian Quigley one of the church's biggest donors. There are prejudices to overcomeand questions to be answered. Like why exactly did Peter leave London in the first place?Running Time: 300 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 794051186522 Manufacturer No: E1865

Great veiwing even if, like me, you aren't Irish

I watched some of this series in UK and had to know what I misses. I've ordered series 2. Great TV

Lake Wobegon in Ireland

If Lake Wobegon were set in Ireland, it would be Ballykissangel. Life in the small, rural Irish town, circa 1995, centers on the pub and the Roman Catholic Church. Naturally, the main characters are the young priest and the publican, a fiery woman who is hostile to religion. Despite her antagonism toward his faith, the publican always seems to end up helping out the priest. Although these two characters take center stage in the early going, a variety of other townspeople -- each with quirky characteristics of his or her own -- gradually emerge with their own stories. Eventually, it becomes clear that the real star is Ballykissangel itself -- a little town that one wishes time hadn't forgotten.

Hey TenDays!

I just had to say hello to the reviewer before me! I also had a chance to visit Avoca and have a glass of Guinness in the pub there. Just a little walk down the street is the most wonderful woolen factory and shop! Enjoy all, the program is great!

Wonderful and enjoyable series!

A look into the lives of an Irish village with the emphasis on the "ordinary people". Features very believable conflicts that village people across many continents might encounter. The characters provide a good balance between good and evil, do-gooders, and those with not such good intentions. Well worth watching!Ballykissangel - Complete Series One

I look forward to viewing the second series.

love the Irish

My husband and I loved the first season of Ballykissangel. The first episode was hysterical! It's quite a crew of characters and imaginative plots. We loved them so much we ordered seasons 2 and 3.
