Ballykissangel - The Ultimate Resource

Welcome to the Ballykissangel Fan Fiction Archive. Fanfic for the series really started because the majority of viewers didn't like the end of the third series and thought they could do better... so they did. You are warned that the fanfics may spoil the end of series 3 for you if you haven't already seen it. But if you have, this is the place to seek solace!

DISCLAIMER: Ballykissangel and the characters portrayed in these works remain the copyright of the BBC, World Productions and Kieran Prendiville. Kieran, we love you really, but you admitted yourself that you would have done it differently! The fanfics are just a tribute to our favourite TV show. The fanfics themselves remain the copyright of the respective author.
