He passed away way too soon. Dermot made me laugh to the point of tears as Father Ted. This Tribute is a class act by the host. You can tell they were good friends.
Reading his memoir’Our Father’ written by his three sons has drawn me to look up a lot I didn’t know about him. To me he was just Father Ted and that was more than enough but what I’m finding in the book and on CZcams reveals new-to-me depths to his talents as a singer songwriter, mimic, genius of comedy. RIP.
I still watch Father Ted , love it . I keep hoping there might be one I haven't seen Haha ! What a great talent and energy he had , reminds me of Robin Williams in some ways.
So true, behind the scenes in R.T.E. Dermot Morgan R.I. P. wasn't appreciated enough by R.T.E. It was just as well Fr. Ted was picked by channel 4 not by R.T.E. because he done some shows with rte and were off the air by one season. If only rte at the time gave him credit he would not have had the heart attack.
May you r.i.p dermot morgan your sadly missed ,to thinl our generation will never know your comedic genious ,you gave us a lifetime of laughter in a few short years ,all the bedt dermot morgan a true comedic genious
I remember being on a bus heading towards Dundrum and dermort Morgan skipping through traffic in a denim jacket on kildare Street smoking a fág three days before he kicked the bucket I was about 15at the time and fr Ted was the talk of the town
But you feel like myself rte didn't appreciate Dermot Morgan R.I.P talent before Fr. Ted. His got picked by Channel 4 not R.T.E. If it got picked by rte, they would have got rid of it by one season.
Dermot was the man. A frontrunner. Doin back then what Mario Rosenstock & Callinan doin today. Isnt it sad that the same political shite was around back then as is in power/opposition & in big jobs today...
Good old Gaybo my mum and dad RIP as well used to watch it , as did i at home long ago , I seen a tribute to dermot recently on ITV. some say he was hard to work with and was a reserved man including Frank kelly ( FR. Jack ) .
He was a brilliant comic mind, he could write all his own stuff and it was hilarious but the impersonation's were exceptional. You have to have that ear. I have it, not to his extent, but I never had the exuberance to display it. Certain few can pick up the essence of somebody and repeat it seamlessly. He had that talent. Huge talent. It's very rare to get someone who has both talents to write and do the impersonations. In America, they produce it to death. But in fairness to RTE and I don't want to compliment them too much (they only ever stifled talent, f√¢king clueless), but they gave him a forum. That was until, they turned down Father Ted. Tell me you're RTE without telling me.... And then he did all of these brilliant parody songs with guitar. He displayed both talents best on a cassette that was given away with football's as part of a promotion with Texaco garages for World Cup Italia '90. My Auntie Margaretta opened a Texaco in Waterford City, opposite the Mercy Convent School and gave them to me when I visited with my mother and sister. I still remember the day, the atmosphere, the experience. What a bloody character she was in her own right. I was 13. I remember her incredible wit. Deadpan, f√¢king killer delivery. Every sentence was a comedic take on life, in between each cigarette inhalations was a f√¢king one liner to make you crease. A personality on her you couldn't believe. I would give ANYTHING to talk to her today. Instead, I'm staring at the wall. If I can't talk to the likes of her, I'd prefer to talk to nobody. I wish I could listen to that Dermot Morgan album now. Never anybody like him since or before. It's simply not hyperbolic or personal nostalgia, but as a country, we never had anyone like Dermot Morgan before or since. He was beyond once in a generation. I'm sure the Aprés Match guys were hugely influenced by him. They went on to do great Dunphy's etc, but Dermot did them first and he was outstanding. Would have been a huge SNL type star talent or on The Howard Stern Show. Glad we got to enjoy him as much as we did, but he should have been known and remembered worldwide ❤ Thank you for posting this, haven't seen or heard his content for ages 🙏🏻
His son is in the Indy today (apparently he has Cancer but should recover ) but says that he is a stand up I have never heard of him he is called Ben - is he any good?
@@coreynugent1254 What you should be apologizing for is naively thinking that money doesn't matter. It does. Channel 4 paid for the show to be made. It is in some ways a British show. Without British money there would have been no Father Ted. Look at what shite RTE funds... Just kidding great Irish show.
It was having to rehearse that dancing scene in the last episode multiple times that killed him. He was having heart palpitations during filming and the crew wouldn't take him seriously. Also the card in the first episode was death.
RIP to both men - national treasures.
I agree!☘🐾
Jeremy Walker Dermot Morgan yes, Not smug self important Gay Byrne
I thought that Mr. taytos tribute was sincere from one national treasure to another
National treasure my arse
Very much so Jeremy. May they both RIP.
Dermot as Father Ted is one of the great acting performances ever, as great as Tony Soprano or any of the ones you can name.
Absolutely
I miss him so much. I feel sad wondering what could've been
I've been thinking the exact same thing as I rewatch the show
He was great but not an actor!!
@@emmetnolan7081Sorry, did you think Father Ted was a documentary?
He passed away way too soon. Dermot made me laugh to the point of tears as Father Ted. This Tribute is a class act by the host. You can tell they were good friends.
Morgan was a comedy genius. Still sadly missed
And RIP Gay Byrne. A great Irishman.
@@propjoe1060 so sadly missed 🌷😢
His and Frank Kelly's memory will live on...
Gay Byrne was one of the best, he was a true entertainer ,loved his shows, radio and television he was just made for entertainment .RIP Gay ,
agree loved Gay
Gay Byrne was the greatest broadcaster we ever had in Ireland.
RIP gay byrne,their will be a fine tribute to you this friday night on the late late show,thank you for some wonderful entertainment and the toy show
Absolute genius at impersonation - his Mike Murphy sounds more like Mike Murphy than the real Mike Murphy does.
Reading his memoir’Our Father’ written by his three sons has drawn me to look up a lot I didn’t know about him. To me he was just Father Ted and that was more than enough but what I’m finding in the book and on CZcams reveals new-to-me depths to his talents as a singer songwriter, mimic, genius of comedy. RIP.
I still watch Father Ted , love it . I keep hoping there might be one I haven't seen Haha !
What a great talent and energy he had , reminds me of Robin Williams in some ways.
+WildPhotoShooter The irish Robin Williams i guess
An absolute genius, Dermot, you'll never be forgotten on these shores.
The irish people loved him. Rte didnt appreciate him as much as they should have. And Now He is gone. He was an utter legend
And what about Dermot Morgan?
If they hadnt let him go, he wouldnt have become father ted?
So true, behind the scenes in R.T.E. Dermot Morgan R.I. P. wasn't appreciated enough by R.T.E. It was just as well Fr. Ted was picked by channel 4 not by R.T.E. because he done some shows with rte and were off the air by one season. If only rte at the time gave him credit he would not have had the heart attack.
Dermot you are sorely missed. One of the funniest men ever to have come out of this country.
Top lads.. never to be seen again in Ireland.
THAT IS THE SAD PART , BUT THEIR MEMORY WILL LIVE ON . SAIL ON GAY .
See them on CZcams now 😊
Gay and Dermot...a great bunch of lads
RIP Uncle Gaybo
The man was miles ahead of anyone on this dear craggy island. Ultra cool
Terrific! I had only seen him in Father Ted but he has so many dimensions as a comedian. Wow!
And a great father and husband
May they both rest in peace. Wonderfully talented!!!!.......both of them.
May you r.i.p dermot morgan your sadly missed ,to thinl our generation will never know your comedic genious ,you gave us a lifetime of laughter in a few short years ,all the bedt dermot morgan a true comedic genious
Gay was very fond of Dermot. God rest them both.
Thank God that someone says it as it was. I love them both.
Both legends gone but not forgotten. RIP Gay Byrne and Dermot Morgan. Two national treasures.
RIP Dermot Morgan, gone too soon, shame we can't see what other projects he had
I was always shocked at the passing of that funny man, then and now
Anyone who can make me laugh, has to be a genius! RIP.
I remember being on a bus heading towards Dundrum and dermort Morgan skipping through traffic in a denim jacket on kildare Street smoking a fág three days before he kicked the bucket I was about 15at the time and fr Ted was the talk of the town
20 years ago in 2018. Times flies
2019 now an all
Trailblazer...we still miss you...
Love gay...an Irish icon
OMG how could he have died so young? He seemed like just a lovely person. It really is a tradegy. I think he was well liked and no wonder
Cocaine. Rife amongst mid 1990's London musicians and actors .. all down the met bar getting hammered.
Absolute legend hands down no one comes close
He was amazing and still is your missed Dermot
I remember seeing him on the Late Late before Ted and thought this guy should be famous.
But you feel like myself rte didn't appreciate Dermot Morgan R.I.P talent before Fr. Ted. His got picked by Channel 4 not R.T.E. If it got picked by rte, they would have got rid of it by one season.
God bless you both but Dermot my god sadly missed 🇮🇪💛☘️👍👍👍☘️
R.i.p.to both of you.
Gay & Dermot, absolute legends, RIP
Gay Byrne and Dermot Morgan. Two legends.
Now its Ryan Tubridy and Oliver Callan.
Lord help us.
rivolinho tuberty doesn’t deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as gay Byrne
A real master of his craft sadly missed
both of them were one of a kind. sadly no longer with us. RIP Dermot and Gay
He was a great comedian.
RIP Gaybo legend
Dermot Morgan, we hardly knew ya

Dermot was the man. A frontrunner. Doin back then what Mario Rosenstock & Callinan doin today. Isnt it sad that the same political shite was around back then as is in power/opposition & in big jobs today...
Good old Gaybo my mum and dad RIP as well used to watch it , as did i at home long ago , I seen a tribute to dermot recently on ITV. some say he was hard to work with and was a reserved man including Frank kelly ( FR. Jack ) .

"Gobshite" 😂😂😂 one of my favourite words 😂 x
We didn't deserve him. The gods took that literally, unfortunately
Always on when I got home from school in Manchester, my nan loved Gay Byrne.
A comic genius. Such a talent. Sadly missed.
They will never be replaced the best
Gay was great and genuinely loved Dermot..
One funny man
His Michael D and Michael Noonan are impeccable
Funniest man that ever lived !
My god he shows so much ranger here. Pity he doesnt have a long list of film credits 🙁

Better then Rosenstock or Callinan. He had Charlie Haughey down to a T
Brilliant
Brilliant comedian and comic actor. Ridiculous that he died so young. Father Ted was just and is genius.
True legend
Rip gay 💔 such a tradgity
I wish you guys would put up the year of the clip when you post these videos!
I laughed so much just now.
What a lost talent.
His son is in the Indy today (apparently he has Cancer but should recover ) but says that he is a stand up I have never heard of him he is called Ben - is he any good?
Chatted to ben outside a pub in achill , really sound and interesting lad .
Itls a pity he didn't tell the joke about the nun and the horses handbrake,,,,,,,great man.
The Late Late Show should have finished when Gay retired RIP Gay RIP Dermot
The epitome of smugness not to mention an air of superiority.
Ahhhh, the oul days when people were allowed have opinions, you will never find people like this in RTE ever again.
Father Ted is a British sitcom that was produced by Hat Trick Productions for Channel 4.
In association with Rte(irish televison), written by two irish men, stars irish actors and is set in ireland. Very British.
@@coreynugent1254 I just copy and pasted Wikipedia sarcastically, you gobshite.
Sorry lol though u were being serious

@@ShredCo Nowhere on Wikipedia does say RTE has any association in producing Fr Ted.
Can help me out with each impression, who they were?
Thanks
Gaybo. What a pro.
What a prick you mean
Myself not being irish I had no idea who the characters were that he was impersonating
This made me eat 3 mince pies they were great
Grow up and deal with the problem. And don't talk to me when he turns on you we all here about it
I see where Rosenstock got some inspiration from
PLEASE
Dermot Morgan had a mass, ha ha.
Any one any ideas who he's acting at 3:19
i think its michael noonan...
Definitely M Noonan
Who is the person he is doing at 2:38?
Pee Flynn ('The Misogynist'). Me thinks you must be under 35?
Eamon de Valera I think
Thanks, P Flynn it is *****
Dev? Wtf!Ryan McGuigan
What date was this aired?
1998
Fuck knows, lol!
Friday 6th March 1998
Here are Dubliners and RTE presnters paying their respects outside the pro-cathedral:
czcams.com/video/-wIqYH_RLCI/video.html
Billy Connolly was right. The audience are very old
Can't stand Gay Byrne but worth watching just for Dermot Morgan
Ahh shit!
Fair to say calling Graham Lenihan an insane genius hasn't aged well. Now he's just insane.
Lol!
Some say i look like Ted.. 🤣
So... If he can make people laugh he's a great guy?
A load of bollox!!!
a very average talent..
Never liked gay Byrne.
Father Ted was shit show but everything else he did was so funny .
If it was shit then why was it watched by millions and won countless awards including BAFTAS for best TV comedy? Maybe it's your taste that's shit :-)
It was having to rehearse that dancing scene in the last episode multiple times that killed him. He was having heart palpitations during filming and the crew wouldn't take him seriously. Also the card in the first episode was death.
