Gosh Carol's bump has really grown (a bit too much I would have thought)... Louie really needs to do something with his hair

The lots of gel look seems to be gone and he looked thinner to me

I guess Carol has to be bigger since she is suppose to be further along that her and Louie are saying in case Christy or anyone thinks it is his baby

What's happened to Deegan's garda girlfriend, or that other garda who used to fancy himself as a Lothario?

Jennifer moved to Galway (actress left on maternity leave I believe) and Ian was moved to another station...

Cheers Angel. Good to see you back.

Who lived in the Bishops house before the Bishops. My memory is a bit fuzzy on this one as I keep thinking it was Brendan and Heather but I know they lived in Deloras's flat.

max life · 07-09-2011 5:02pm

Why would Carol and Louie spend over a month away from the bar?
I thinks its the first time i have seen Louie going for the casual look....never seen him without the suit

I think it was Ken and Deirdre (not the Corrie pair), Dermot's brother and his girlfriend who was pregnant with Ben at the time.

dirtyghettokid · 07-09-2011 7:33pm

how can you smile while telling someone that your son died??

Thanks. That's right, it was Ken, the chef. I remember now.

Harry Angstrom · 07-09-2011 7:53pm

I was wondering how long it would take for Sarah's mother to make a move on Bob, considering she's been in Carrickstown for a few days now. She only knew Barry for 5 minutes before she wanted to jump in the sack with him.

unitedrover · 07-09-2011 7:58pm

Deegan discussing possible suspects at the counter in a pub.:eek:

If Bob was an accomplice and behind them at that moment, he'd be out the door booking the next flight.

Carstuck · 07-09-2011 8:11pm

Tought that was 'unusual' for Deegan to discuss the suspects like that at the bar. Also Rebecca's half smiling and not very upset after literally finding out Sarahs dead.

Cherry Blossom Girl · 07-09-2011 8:19pm

Why was Neasa having a full blown conversation when she supposedly had a supplier on the phone

And The supplier surely would have heard Finn talking and known he was there!

meh.. I had a lot of hope for that sentence..

max life · 07-09-2011 8:29pm

I loved Neasa's idea of wearing a bikini in The Station....;)

Rebecca is not showing much grief, is she?

Why had Bob got a smirk on his face for most of the episode? Even talking about his son drowning, he was smiling

Noone did, Eileen's place was supposedly torched and she got that house from the council. She then moved Vivienne & Charlotte in afterwards!

Thanks angel. It really is very like the house that Ken lived in. (the same set being reused maybe?)

jos28 · 07-09-2011 9:36pm

I'm 99% sure that it is the same house, I remember admiring the kitchen and fireplace.
Have a look at this photo and see what you all think

ameliajane · 07-09-2011 11:16pm

The person who writes the dialogue for Wayne is very talented. I find Wayne to be an interesting character. He often gives me a great laugh at the things he says. I enjoy
watching the way Finn, Wayne and Nessa interact with each other. Enjoyable viewing.

ameliajane · 07-09-2011 11:23pm

Rebecca is not reacting in an extremely emotional manner as I would have expected. It
would make me have a nervous breakdown if I was informed that my daughter's body had been buried in the mountains by a friend who was involved in her tragic death. Even if my relationship had been strained, I think I would be inconsolable and depressed. Perhaps, it will be apparent if the case comes to the courts. There must be a reason behind it. She is coping too well which is hard to understand. Perhaps, some people are shallow and not bothered. I don't think I have met such people so I don't really understand this LACK of sorrow.

angel01 · 08-09-2011 10:01am

I am afraid last night was weak, Bob was like a cheshire cat smirking through telling about his son, what was that about?

I normally think Bob is superb but that was a very poor scene.

As for her mother, she is hardly grieving, first she strolls into Carrigstown trying to find Sarah, tries to hop into bed with Barry (so much concern for her daughter :rolleyes:) then when she finds out she has been murdered, she is all over Bob... :eek:

Very unrealistic and who the hell drew that picture of Sarah on the wall... it is dire and if I was her, I would be insulted

On the upside, Wayne was brilliant, I can't get enough of watching him in the soap, he is brilliant and a fantastic actor.

rogercar · 08-09-2011 1:35pm

Barry was the only one who saved this weeks episodes. The interrogation scenes are embarrassingly bad, ie. Deegan and the other cop. The innterrogation room is so basic, no recording equipment. I thought all Garda interviews/interrogations were now recorded and filmed, for future evidence and possible trial. As for Louie, I'm thinking he might need to have his appendex removed! I really hope he has a medical condition to explain the stomach paions, cramps etc. No mention how they did in the tidy towns competition! The place looks no different now than it did before Joe and Tommy started the "clean-up". I think Bob smiling when he talked about his dead son was basically Bob masking his sadness at his loss. That's Bobs way of coping with it. As for Rebecca, the woman is showing no emotion at all. Any parent would be so distraught at the loss of their child, especially in such circumstances. Very poor episodes this week.

Cant get the image out of my head of louie on the operating table with Joey the serial killer from Shortland Street performing the surgery.

angel01 · 08-09-2011 1:49pm

I have enjoyed this weeks episodes and can't wait to see how it all pans out for Denzo and the Bishops, the scenes look great!

I have enjoyed Barry as usual and he is doing a fab job with this storyline and showing a great side to his character. I have enjoyed Deegan in the interview room with Barry but his sidekick is poor to say the least

Hi Angel01. Welcome back. You were missed. I suppose in fairness the actors concerned can only work with what they are given. I like Deegan, but discussing the case so openly in the local pub with one of the Bishops behind the bar and in earshot! Not very believeable! And yeah I really like all the Bishops. As I have said before any episode that has even one of the Bishops in it, is good,so I am a very happy camper when all the Bishop clan are in it. Long live the Bishops! Let's hope Paddy soon gets released!

C-J · 08-09-2011 2:19pm

Can someone tell me whatever happened to malachy and also kay? I used to love him in behind the bar a great actor!

julyjane · 08-09-2011 2:22pm

Malachy ran off with a young recovering drug addict called Lara and her baby daughter who was going to be taken into care AFAIR Lara had been raped by Terence (the madman who kidnapped and killed Lana) and found she was HIV+

I think I have that right anyway? I can't remember what became of Kay, did she go off to France to Noeleen and Stephen?

I agree with the discussing in the pub, that would never happen but I put that aside, I loved him in the interview room with Barry, shouting at Barry, made good viewing!

I know my OH isn't a FC fan but has been glued to it lately, with this Denzo/Barry story and he is loving it and for a non FC fan, that says something

I love the Bishops, best family in the soap for me by far. I love Decco and can't wait to see how he reacts when he hears the truth... drama at it's very best

Couldn't agree more, my sentiments entirely. Very unrealistic.

pavcro10 · 08-09-2011 4:46pm

Heres a helping hand for the fair city bosses. You can raise the level of the show automatically 50 percent by getting rid of these actors.
Someone has already pointed out that the vibe of the show is ruined, when you have a scene with good actors immediately followed by sh**e ones! It makes everybody, including the talented actors look bad.

Heres my cut list! My criteria for being a bad actor is this. Do I believe theh person? Or am I constantly aware of someone "acting"

1. Caoimhe. One of the worst actors I have ever seen in my life! The girl cannot deliver a realistic line of dialouge. Constantly has a sour puss on her and is totally OTT in dramatic scenes. Dont get me started on her drunk scenes.

2. Zumo. Just Brutal. Everything he says sounds the same!

3. Denzo. Appallingly bad.

4. Granny Bishop. Dire

5. Mark. When someone is angry. They dont have a permanent frown on their face and talk through gritted teeth ALL THE TIME!

6. Finn. He has kind of slipped under the radar because he never has a storyline. Lets keep it that way. He is one of the biggest "acting" culprits. We the audience dont need to be hit over the head with everything. Your playing a happy go lucky guy?? Great!! We dont need the "waaahay" and the winks and the clicks!! Hes like the guy at a party who pulls out a guitar and goes "Ok everybody!! Now its time to have fun!".He is OTT and forces everything.

7. Jo. Pure Panto. Never believed her for a second in the affair storyline.

Louie gets a pass because the character is useful. But he should never be given anything emotional ever again after the wretched scenes in the Carol/Christy storyline. Pretty to look at no doubt about it, but bad bad actor.

Its not a long list, and maybe ive left out 1 or 2. But i believe if these characters went. The show would be all the better for it. Its just an opinion.

Yeah but she looks great in a nurse's uniform.

Deegan was awful trying to interrogate Barry...he looked like he was doing an impression of Jack Nicholson in " A Few Good Men " :mad:

angel01 · 08-09-2011 6:50pm

I love all the Bishops so wouldn't want to lose any of them (bar Charlotte as she tends to annoy me

) I adore the Bishops and what a superb family. I like Zumo, I wish they would have more scenes with him & Charlie, good pairing.

I would happily axe Caoimhe and maybe Sean, just as well I am not in control of the cast, I don't want to lose any others

I enjoyed Deegan interrogating Barry, I was glued to it....:D

JonathanAnon · 08-09-2011 8:07pm

"But you slept with Ian... and STOLE Keith.. "

lol...

IsMiseLisa · 08-09-2011 8:14pm

Ah, jaysus. Two episodes ago Sarah's mammy was screaming and roaring about how everyone in Sarah betrayed her and were at fault for her death. Now, she's talking about how great Carrigstown is?

Gotta admit, I laughed when Dopey Denzo got to his feet and did his whole: "I'm sorry. I'm sorry!"
