Ballykissangel was a BBC television drama set in Ireland, produced in-house by BBC Northern Ireland. The original story revolved around a young English priest as he became part of a rural community. It ran for six series, which were first broadcast on BBC One in the UK from 1996 to 2001. A significant change in the cast occurred between the third and fourth series and to a lesser extent between the fifth and sixth.
The name of the fictional village in which the show was set is derived from Ballykissanne, a townland near Killorglin in County Kerry, where the show's creator, Kieran Prendiville, holidayed with his family as a child. The village's name in Irish is shown as "Baile Coisc Aingil", which means "The town of the fallen angel" on the sign outside the post office. Ballykissangel is often affectionately called BallyK by its fans.
