I'm not familiar with that show.

(Looks it up)

"Father Ted is a British sitcom that was produced by Hat Trick Productions for Channel 4. Written by Irish writers Arthur Mathews & Graham Linehan and starring a predominantly Irish cast, it originally aired over three series from 21 April 1995 until 1 May 1998, including a Christmas special, for a total of 25 episodes.

The show follows the misadventures of three Irish Roman Catholic priests who live in a parish on the fictional Craggy Island, located off the west coast of Ireland. Father Ted Crilly, Father Dougal McGuire and Father Jack Hackett live chaotically together in Craggy Island's parochial house, along with their housekeeper Mrs Doyle, who always wants to serve them tea.

The three priests answer to Bishop Len Brennan, who has banished them to Craggy Island as punishment for different incidents in their past: Ted for alleged financial impropriety (apparently involving some money 'resting' in his account and a child being deprived of a visit to Lourdes so that Ted could go to Las Vegas), Dougal for something only referred to as the "Blackrock Incident" (resulting in many nuns' "lives [being] irreparably damaged"), and Jack for his alcoholism and womanising, particularly for an incident at a wedding in Athlone.

The show revolves around the priests' lives on Craggy Island, sometimes dealing with matters of the church but more often dealing with Father Ted's schemes to either resolve a situation with the parish or other Craggy Island residents, or to win games of one-upmanship against his enemy, Father Dick Byrne of the nearby Rugged Island parish."

I was thinking it was going to be some weird niche drama about orphans at a nunnery...

Very much worth watching. Even 20 years on, the jokes are good.

"Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees was buried with a copy of the DVD box set."

I would think that if you're going to be buried with it, it must be worth checking out.

That seems a bit weird. Presumably he was dead when he was buried? And did he have his coffin fitted with a TV screen and DVD player?

Kiki's Delivery Service, an animated film from Studio Ghibli, 1989.

Quite a bit late to comment, but I'm amazed. The emotes doesn't give any clue to what the show is about, which I thought might deceive one to believe it's some kind of Time Square movie.

I was saying it out loud to myself, key, key... Key, key... and it just clicked. I like the Studio Ghibli films and have seen most of them.

Plenty of hinting around at that one but I think the answer was given somewhere in there.

Quiet in here

Perhaps more music?

We continue with a performance by Yo-Yo Ma, Alison Krauss, Natalie MacMaster and others. And we go to Ireland to hear it.

That was great.

Alison Krauss is perfect for singing Christmas songs. I had only heard her folk music before (although I suppose Christmas music is a type of folk music...)

Also, I would like to watch a half hour of Alison Krauss and Yo-Yo Ma just talking to one another. Maybe a podcast.

In your special outfit for me, please?

Yo ye pharoahs, let us walk
Through this barren desert, in search of truth
And some pointy boots, and maybe a few snack crackers

Baby, you make me wanna walk like a camel
Walk!

Who's in charge here?
Where's my Captain's Wafers?
Don't go around hungry now
The way you eat that oatmeal pie
Makes me just wanna die

Baby!
You make me wanna walk like a camel
Walk!

Say, you don't think there's any way I can get that quarter
From underneath your pointy boot, do ya?
All I want is just one more oatmeal pie
Aw, Little Debbie, Little Debbie!
I'm a'comin on home, baby
'Cause you make me wanna walk
Like a camel"

Here's a Christmas Carol for y'all called the Coventry Carol:

Lullay, thou little tiny Child,
By-bye lully, lullay.
Lullay, thou little tiny Child,
By-bye lully, lullay.

O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day,
This poor Youngling for whom we sing
By-bye lully, lullay.

Herod the King, in his raging,
Charged he hath this day;
His men of might, in his own sight,
All children young, to slay.

Then woe is me, poor Child, for Thee,
And ever mourn and say;
For Thy parting nor say nor sing,
By-bye lully, lullay.
