SOLVED. Catholic priest Irish (?) funny novel series [s]

[Justin]

I read a few humorous novels about a Catholic priest/vicar living in a village in England or Ireland many years ago. I think they were published in the 70's. The titles were all similar and I think included the word "Father..." They were very funny - all about this priest/vicar's experiences in a village in the UK. It's not the Father Brown detective/mystery novels. Does anyone please have any idea? Thanks, Justin.

Was it the Father Dowling mysteries? I believe there was a television series based on the books. I think it was an American character though.

I found The Last Stand of Father Felix by Leonard Wibberly, first published in 1974.

And, Father Goose by Champman Mortimer, first published in 1951.

What about Bless Me, Father by Neil Boyd - hilarious
goings on in the parish.
