Ros na Run

Really enjoying the storyline, but I'm starting to get a bit annoyed by how slow they take the episodes! I think they break up the exciting scenes a bit too much - e.g they show you a liiiiiittle bit of Grace being a psycho, and then go to a pointless scene with Tadhg and then a liiiiiittle bit more of the Grace storyline and then on to Dara & Tina for ages etc. It's like they're teasing the viewer with multiple cliffhangers, but it's just frustrating!

(Just me being impatient? :P)

I missed 3 or 4 minutes at the start of Tuesday's episode, was thinking I couldn't have missed that much! So they didn't show anything? I also thought they'd accidentally skipped an episode

Also, what do you think happened with

Katy? A case of the girl who cried wolf, or another scam?

(Spoilers cause some people wait til the omnibus to watch this week's episodes, but it's already happened)

cats.life · 20-10-2012 9:09pm

boy was i peed of aswell , was looking forward to tuesdays slot and had it taped so i could watch it in peace, so disapointed there was jonny telling a story sitting on high chair all eyes on him. very badly done, im just thinking would it be cause of the cuts we hear about in tg4,saving money.

irishgeo · 23-10-2012 6:48pm

katy annoys the hell out of me.

some interesting storylines , the doctor got away light with bernie sister after spotting berni shoes.

Agreed. Felt like the whole Alice/Grace storyline was a complete waste of time and that I'd missed a number of episodes the way they ended it. What is her fate anyway? Was she arrested? Will there be a trial or why did she do it? None of it was explained at all. Glad it's finished with though as I couldn't stand her or the storyline, thought it was stupid tbh.

Anyone else feel that this season hasn't really got going at all? The whole thing just feels a little disjointed and they are jumping in and out of storylines that don't run smoothly or have huge gaps in them or else they just end them quickly and the whole thing was baffling e.g.

the whole thing with Seamus' turf being stolen. WTF????

That's just my two cents anyway

RhubarbCrumble · 02-11-2012 9:56am

Can somebody tell me what happened with Lee and her boyfriend? I missed an episode and am completely lost now.

Just not getting into RnaR at all this season. It seems to be really poor. Remember the glory days of O' Dowd and Daniel? Now they were storylines.

(Spoiler tags cause I can't remember when this aired and don't wanna reveal anything for people who watch the omnibus)

Jason basically revealed in front of everyone that Lee used to be a prostitute (which her boyfriend didn't know) and claimed that she gave him chlamydia (which she actually didn't). Iarla then broke up with Lee. Jason, after finding out that it wasn't Lee who gave him the STD, tried to convince Iarla to stay, but Iarla revealed that his brother made him go off with a prostitute when he was a teenager and that he couldn't stay with Lee because she would always remind him of how ashamed he was of that. So Iarla's gone back to London, Lee hates Jason and Jason keeps trying to apologize.

I know what you mean, the new season has been really disjointed or something, constantly jumping between storylines with no real continuity.

Maybe they'll draw all the different threads together in a few weeks though? They are pretty good at that, after all...

Kauto0709 · 15-11-2012 6:48pm

The storylines are rubbish at the moment!

I know. Literally nothing happened in today's episode... :mad:

Donall4 · 15-11-2012 11:37pm

I know nothing really happened in this episode. I think Evan is funny, they should give him more to do, hopefully hell gt his own story line, to keep Berni in her place. Lee is also very funny.

At the begining of the year they said that a teenage pregnancy will happen, so that's probably going to eb Evan(fingers crossed) or Katy(she annoys the **** into me.

Why are all the teenage boys in Ros Na run played by 25 year olds ?

The talent pool they have to pick from gets thinner all the time (they have used a LOT of it already!) They are also involved in adult storylines.

However, the chap who plays Ciarán looks WAY too old for the part of a teenager..

Would be great if Jim O'Dowd came back.. Ros na Rún hasn't been the same since he left. Also, I know she's been around for a couple of years, but isn't Katy basically the same character as Molly when she arrived.. They are also repeating a lot of storylines, like rape etc..

Killing O' Dowd off was the biggest mistake ever made. Perhaps they could do a Bobby Ewing and bring him back? It was all just a dream

didnt ciaran rape katy but nobody believed her (could of been her telling more lies).

well since ciaran is working in the radio and roise being there, well my wild guess is he'll attack her and mack saves her etc etc.

endofrainbow · 21-11-2012 9:11am

just noticed that Roise got through an ENTIRE episode without saying *ok ok *- that must be a first.

Dailyface · 22-11-2012 5:43pm

Ya i reckon its going to be Evan but who will he get pregnant?. He hasn't had much so far but the little bits hes in hes funny love when he was telling Peadar about Berni and Cathal and plus the fact he stands up to berni. My friends are obsessed with him.

Lee and Tadgh are very good together. So far the season has average, they dropped the ball with grace's storyline and berni sister where did she go off too.

livinginkorea · 25-11-2012 12:03am

What happened with the Grace story line...I missed that episode and it's too far gone now to watch it on the player. Usually, I leave it for a couple of weeks and then watch they all over a weekend.

Basically it was the night before the wedding and she tricked Vince into coming over to her place. What happened next?

The first episode I watched was Vince coming out of hospital and staying at Johnny's place.

Agreed. Delighted Lee she is back and living in Tigh Thaidhg now.. They make a great team. Leonora is definitely my favourite character at the mo.

Mick Murdock · 29-11-2012 9:00pm

Martina got her Australian visa fairly sharpish! Was kinda sick of her character.. Glad she's gone..

jjf1974 · 29-11-2012 10:10pm

Has maire a psv (hackney ) licence>? If not she is breaking a good few laws.

languagenerd · 30-11-2012 9:55am

What the hell was that with

"Ok, so I think I'll emigrate to Australia... in ten minutes' time! Bye."

Talk about unrealistic!

RikkFlair · 30-11-2012 10:49pm

Poor auld John Joe. That's all I can say

jjf1974 · 02-12-2012 10:48pm

Father davids agony aunt radio show should be a bit of craic !

Mick Murdock · 07-12-2012 9:39pm

I thought Pádraig looked familiar - just saw him in my local Tesco..

Hope his character gets more interesting........

RnR is a bit of a snoozefest at the mo.. Pains me to say..

branie · 07-12-2012 11:35pm

I think Ciaran has a bit of a crush on Roise

Between David and Ciarán..Don't think it'll be a Happy Christmas for Róise somehow..

Speaking of Ciarán - hopefully he gets a good beating JIM O'DOWD style!! That might liven things up a bit.

pooch90 · 10-12-2012 3:35pm

Can see Ciarán raping Róise in the near future.
The Padraig fella is the dopey lad out of the Bulmers ads I think....

Mick Murdock · 11-12-2012 8:47pm

This is great - feeling uncomfortable watching poor David! Cringeworthy at it's best.

jjf1974 · 11-12-2012 9:47pm

Ciaran is a big strong lad who was well fit to fend of the burgular who didnt look very realistic.

Mick Murdock · 15-12-2012 12:10pm

Is it me or is Róise actually taking a shine to David?

livinginkorea · 15-12-2012 10:43pm

How old is Ciaran meant to be? Reminds me of a lad I went to school with. Built like an ox.

livinginkorea · 16-12-2012 12:54am

Up to speed on the episodes now.

I think David and Roise would make a lovely couple but I recon she would want a lot from him!

Tina is a good looking girl

That is all :P

languagenerd · 16-12-2012 8:44pm

From the RTE Guide, looks like "Evan and Niamh" (is that his girlfriend?) have an announcement to make, so maybe you're all right here.

Why has Katy just disappeared in the middle of what should have been a major storyline?

The storylines have started pulling together now,compared to the start of the season anyway. This Maire-driving-hackneys one is boring the hell out of me though!

jjf1974 · 18-12-2012 9:37pm

Now mo is going to be a hackney driver,when did she get a psv licence.maires golf would hardly pass as a taxi. hope the taxi regulator doesnt pay a visit !

Donall4 · 20-12-2012 4:01pm

Ya Evan gets Niamh(O Shea daughter) pregnant. Niamh had like 4 lines so far, so bit random to give her a huge storyline now!! Lookin forward to this Storyline, about time they had more younger people storyline apart from Katy's!

Mick Murdock · 20-12-2012 9:12pm

Good job John Joe.. Very discreet!

Seamus was hilarious as always.

Enjoyed tonights episode!

julyjane · 20-12-2012 10:27pm

I think the customs lady could be the least of Johnjoes worries, when the freezer seemed to be defrosting I think there could be a breakout of food poisoning on Christmas day from all the dodgy turkeys!

Dailyface · 25-12-2012 8:23pm

Poor Evanín, he is the tallest person ever!! Berni won't be happy....Evan and Niamh are good actors, u could see their innocence poor little or i mean big/ginormous baba's!

Donall4 · 25-12-2012 8:32pm

Hahahahahaha tonites epiosde was a good one! Evanín was center of attention, about time he took someone of the shine away from Berni #teamevan&niamh
