Graham Linehan: 'We couldn't make Father Ted in the same way today'

The man behind the hit sitcom in Catholic guilt, the power of Twitter and how it arrived on the scene Ladykillers Ladykillers

the book he written based on the

1955 movies

is back in the West End. What were the difficulties in transferring a movie scene?

The hardest part was getting rid of the body. A rule that I propose is that the characters should not be able to leave the house. I broke once - I left the tracks [to get rid of body] - and I'd rather not have it because I thought it would be a pure play in the house. It would also make theater that adhere to this room.


The film is designed as a classic comedy. Is there such a thing as timeless humor?

This is a good question. Vi Some Like It Hot the other day. Should be about 60 years old and still stands, but it is more than two hours and should not be. Some scenes are over-explained. Our ability to process information - we can do a lot faster now. Our experience in the stories decoding is such little it takes to find out what happens. I do not think it changes the atmosphere, but the framework.

Are we processing faster because social media?

Everything affects the way stories are told. So many people use and vine [a mobile application that lets you share short videos]. People make comedy films seven seconds now are pretty amazing. It's a whole new vocabulary and I love it.

writer Ladykillers

, William Rose, is said to have dreamed of the plot. Have you ever dreamed of a comedy?

No, nothing that involved. There have been times when a joke and dream I wake up and it's something like. "A man sees a bush, but it is actually a shrub, a car" I had a recent tweet came to me in a dream and doing the work [joke]. I stopped telling jokes on Twitter. I'll have to start all over again.

One of the best jokes of Twitter was when he made a rumor that Osama bin Laden was caught watching your sitcom,

The IT Crowd [Linehan tweeted: "Does anyone have confirmation that Osama looked

The IT Crowd

in these movies amazing home if c It's true, I do not know how you feel? ".]. What do you think would have done would have been to watch?


The Golden Girls

. I see he is a big fan.


You have two son, aged five and seven. Do you think you're funny?

Yes, I somehow do. You must provide a different way to be fun for children. They learn the rhythm of a joke. I trained to wait for the good laugh, so I'm never sure if you really think I'm funny or laugh because they know it is the right time to do it.

Before success Father Ted you and co-writer Arthur Mathews wrote a short-lived sitcom called

Paris did not obtain remission in after the first round in 1994 service. What happened?

    It was Paris in the 1920s and Alexei Sayle acted as a frustrated artist capitals seeing things that happen in the world of literature and art. It was then that I realized the script was rewritten, as they say. We refuse point blank to reduce the script to the correct length, so that we end up with performances that were too long. The other problem is that we decided to paint the background and, therefore, all seemed false, unfounded in any way. All cried all the time and this land once set up, all players hit the same high volume. The good thing is that it really gave me a shock. I realized that I had to keep things very closely. Everything was important.
