- Father Peter Clifford arrives at his new church in Ballykissangel, a town filled with extravagant confessionals, bartenders who loathe organized religion and many more colorful characters he'll soon to get to know.
- English priest Peter Clifford cheerfully leaves his inner city parish when assigned as Catholic chaplain to Ballykissangel, a desolate part of curate MacAnally's huge Irish country parish. Peter flippantly claimed a mountain-bike is made for such country but gets scolded you can't work here without a car, as an old man living on a lonely peak actually needs last rites. Clifford's atheist landlady Assumpta Fitzgerald asks his 'lay' marriage advice. Her locally dominant rich father, Brian Quigley, insists on installing a state-of-the-art Italian 'modern comforts' confessional chair, complete with fax, and source of various problems.—KGF Vissers
- For Father Peter Clifford, the assignment to the Irish town of Ballykissangel presents a number of challenges. First of all, he's English and as one local resident puts it, he looks like he's 12 years old. He also doesn't drive which presents problems given the large area he has to cover. Slowly. he gets to know his new parishioners. Assumpta Fitzgerald runs the local pub and is appropriately cynical. Niamh Quiigley wants to live with her boyfriend, the local police constable, before they get married but he is resisting because he doesn't want to commit a mortal sin; she wants Father Clifford's permission for them to move in together. Then there is local business man Brian Quigley whose latest gift to the church is a self-contained confessional featuring electric sliding doors, air conditioning and a fax machine! Father Clifford starts to figure them all out and to deal with their idiosyncrasies.—garykmcd
