Watched it last night and couldn't work out what I was supposed to be getting offended by. (Mrs Doyle falling off the windowsill is still one of the greatest comedy moments btw.)

It can't be Glinner, they would put a warning on Harry Potter if so.

OK own up, who watched it wearing their blue jumper.

What was the actual wording of the warning?

Loads of reasons there could be a warning. It's not the episide where Mrs Doyle has a fight and ends up in the click so can't be that. (Warning for criminal activity.) Nor is it the on where if the milk float is driving below four miles an hour the bomb would go off. (Warning for perilous situation.)

So possibly it's the drinking and smoking that's in it. (Warning for use or drugs and narcotics.)

Also possible it's because of the boring voice priest. (Warning not to watch while driving or operating heavy machinery.)

As I suggested earlier it could be the largest lingerie section and seeing bras and knickers. (Warning for sexual content.)

Or maybe it's in case two gentle souled siblings, who have never heard of Fr Ted before (grew up without a tv or access to modern media) are accidentally watching it thinking it's a documentary about a priest. (Warning for Bartholomew and Concepta. Tad niche but possible.)
