    What is the name of that song? With the bald kid on the banjo and another fellow on the guitar. I think it was the fair-ground episode when dougle was talking about the spider-babies. I can play part of it but can't work out the rest..

    As far as I can remember, its a song that sounds very, very like The Banjo Duel (or Duel of The Banjo's) from the movie Deliverance... but for the sake of copyrights and so on, its not...

    It is indeed Duelling Banjos by Eric Weisberg and Steve Mandell as featured in the film Deliverance. If you are looking for the piece of music, it features on many of those 'Best of the Movies' type soundtracks, I got it from the Film 2000 compilation.

    Yeah, i believe it was. 'Good Luck Father Ted' was the name of the episode.

    Got all the episodes on DVD. That's the episode also with Dougal discussing the "spider-baby" with Ted!

    “Spider baby. It has the body of a spider, but the mind of a baby.”

    I think it was the first episode of the second series. Anyone remember the fairground announcer saying 'A child has become lodged in the Tunnel of Goats, could we please have a nurse to the Tunnel of Goats', and soon after announcing 'A child is still lodged in the Tunnel of Goats and a nurse has become involved in the incident, could we please have another nurse to release the nurse we called for previously'. Absolute classic...

    Just watching this for the millionth time, having mad nostalgia. Who is that young fella playing the banjo with the hilarious facial expression, he's hilarious!
