I was sad to hear of Frank Kelly’s death yesterday. While a veteran actor of many stage and screen roles, to me he will always be Father Jack Hackett, the outrageous, foul-mouthed, drunken priest of the sublime Father Ted. Perfect casting. Indeed, I’d long been considering sketching the characters of the show – a shame it is that Jack comes under these circumstances.
