Mrs. Doyle's first name is never mentioned in the show, but some years later writer Arthur Matthews revealed that it was Joan.

3. Where does Ted get the money from to bet on the King of the Sheep competition?

Answer: The heating allowance budget

As Ted loses the bet and consequently the heating budget money, at the end of the episode the parochial house residents are seen preparing to hibernate.

5. After everything he does makes him seem racist, Ted tries to win over the Chinese family by sending them a present. What is actually in the box he sends them?

Answer: Jack in a Nazi uniform

Ted meant to send them alcohol, but Jack found and drank it, then took its place.

6. Ted and Dougal are told by the bishop to protest against a blasphemous film. What does Dougal say when demonstrating outside the cinema?

Answer: Careful now!

The protest draws more attention to the movie than it was previously getting, and the manager tells them that he has not seen as big an attendance for a single film since "Jurassic Park".

7. Father Jack is sent to hospital and replaced by Father Finton Stack, after Jack contracts "Hairy Hands Syndrome". What does Father Stack NOT do that annoys Ted?

After using Jack's horrible chair, Father Stack also contracts "Hairy Hands Syndrome" and is sent to hospital. This allows Jack to return, but only in a sealed chamber to prevent the disease spreading.

At the prize draw, entertainment is provided by another priest acting as a DJ. Unfortunately, he only has one record. He also has a gambling addiction and buys 2000 tickets.

9. When does everyone have to wear protective head gear?

Answer: To cut Jack's nails

This scene is from the final episode "Going to America". The nail clippings fly everywhere, smashing through a window, hitting Ted in the head and finally breaking a wine glass held by a visiting priest.

Answer: "Shit Happens"

When the milk float blows up Jack's brick falls from the sky, followed by the bumper sticker.
