Bless Me Father

Bless Me Father

"Bless me, Father" was a British situation comedy starring Arthur Lowe, Daniel Abineri, Gabrielle Daye, Derek Francis and Sheila Keith. It was aired on ITV from 1978 until 1981 and described the adventures of an Irish Catholic priest (Lowe) and his young curate (Abineri) in the fictional parish of St. Jude's in suburban London. 21 episodes, written by Peter De Rosa, (who had previously been a novice curate) were aired. De Rosa wrote the series using the pseudonym of Neil Boyd which was also the name of the young curate character; Boyd also served as the narrator in the series of novels upon which the series was based. It was made for the ITV network by London Weekend Television

The series was set in 1950 and marked a departure from the middle class 'bank manager' roles traditionally associated with Lowe.
