* ProperlyParanoid: Father Jack was worried that he might get buried alive, and so had his will include a condition whereby Ted and Dougal had to spend the night watching over his body. Downplayed in that Jack recovered long before the funeral and so was never in serious danger of being buried alive, but his fears evidently weren’t as ridiculous as they might have seemed at first glance.

After one bottle of household cleaner too many, Father Jack has finally passed on. Much to the surprise of the remaining Craggy Island priests Jack had squirrelled away a small fortune and left it to them both. But first they must hold an all-night vigil with him the night before his funeral. Cue Jack and Dougal playing games, discussing the afterlife and reciting poetry before a loud voice sends them both into a swoon...

* WholePlotReference: In retrospect, Graham Linehan and Arthur Mathews noticed that the plot was very similar to that of the ''Series/FawltyTowers'' episode "[[Recap/FawltyTowersS2E4TheKipperAndTheCorpse The Kipper and the Corpse]]". Despite being fans of the show, they only noticed the parallels afterwards, and would likely have abandoned the episode if they had seen them earlier.
