There was a nice little 'in joke' in the bit where Michelle (Grainne Beasdale) was making up excuses to Vince why she is leaving RnR.
Michelle:
'My friend Sophie is downhearted so...'
Grainne Beasdale played a character called Sophie in the TV series 'Afric'Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

I know new actors appear for the same characters in soaps etc
Like the girl who plays Realtin for example.
But there is one change which really confuses me.
Áine Máire Ní Óráin (Ann Maire Horan) plays the character Frances Uí Dhireáin.
The blurb here says she worked in her fathers pub in Dublin when she was young.

I was watching Season 1 - Episode 16 and there was this scene. @43:21
(this link below starts at the time of the scene - for some reason it would not playback - when added as a youtube link)
https://youtu.be/lioge2hBpUY?t=2601
'Frances' is clearly referred to as Helen in this scene when she is on the phone with Rita.
So I looked it up in the closing credits just to make sure I did not get it wrong.
A small bit of fiosreach!
It clearly states 'Helen Byrne - Ann Marie Horan'
So the characters 'Frances Uí Dhireáin' and 'Helen Byrne' are one and the same.
Why did she change her first name?Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

I think it was just the same actress playing 2 different characters. It is strange though!0 -

It happens all the time in tv series, but probably a bit more in Ros na Rún as they would have a far more limited pool of actors available to them. If you continue to watch, you'll see that she isn't the only one who turns up in more than one character....

As if to prove my point, in the very next scene, do you recognise who Áine and Síle's mother is? :pac:0 -

No to be honest. I have a large gap in my Ros na Run knowledge.
I suppose you could call me a lapsed RnR watcher.
I will figure it out anyway and it will be a 'jayus that's yer wan' moment. :eek:
So as a result I enjoy watching the old episodes. For the first few years of them I was at school.
It was used as part of the Irish class.
So the memory is being jogged.
Plus I get a kick out of the 90's references 'gigsy' the cat. Oasis albums, video rental shops.
Phones in pubs!Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.
