A new resident on Craggy Island.

Feminist singer Niamh Connolly arrives on Craggy Island looking for a new place.

Rock a hila Ted is perhaps my least favourite episode of the second series, mainly down to quality of other episodes. It's still good, but perhaps lacks some of the sharpness of the other episodes.

It's not without its merits, Claire Crogan is good as Niamh, and The Bob Geldof jokes around Father Jack are also funny. Poor Mrs Doyle.

It's perhaps one of those episodes that does feel dated, it's the other one I've watched so far that's felt a bit dated.

Still good though, 6/10.

Trivia
The "Loverly GIrls Competition" is inspired by Ireland's "Rose of Tralee" festival.

Quotes
Father Ted Crilly: He goes mad if I'm a minute late.
[Father Jack is reading a newspaper called "Drink"]
Father Ted Crilly: Father Jack, your afternoon drink.
[Jack lowers his newspaper and is even more hairy than ever, with very long frizzy hair and a very long beard]
Father Ted Crilly: You know you really should get a haircut. You don't want to go too far down that "Bob Geldolf" road.
Father Dougal McGuire: Oh Ted, that's a baaaad road.
Father Ted Crilly: It is indeed, Dougal. And once you've gone down it, there's no coming back, as Bob himself would tell you. Ha ha ha.
[Father Jack hits Ted on the head with his walking stick]
