    Well said, I hate all this "oh english stuff must be better" I think Fair City is brilliant and I love it :D


    Who mentioned anything about "oh english stuff must be better" - I don't watch any other soaps - fair city is the only one for me :-)

    The security man is seriously on the doss! I work in RTE and we're not allowed on the fair city set! I know it's okay for people to come into the canteen to meet employees etc but I thought you had to have a reason to be on the premises, like taking part in a programme or on a school tour!

    Eh? Never been a problem for me. About a year ago now, we were walking on the Fair City set and somebody was working there jokingly asked, "have you got your passes?" as we passed by and we were all "uh... no" and he was like "only joking :pac:" so we asked him if it was genuinely okay for people to be on the set. He said that it was absolutely fine and even told us when they filmed and that anybody can come and watch as long as you're quiet, and there are always other people watching and such too.

    :D:D:D

    Great idea... :D

    Just watched yesterdays episodes, it clashes with X Factor :o How guilty must Barry feel now, I would have strangled bucko bill in that bed. I am still missing Annette :( Just hope Seamus pulls through now.

    Is Heather pregnant? :eek: she has either put on weight or is up the spout.

    Bob makes me laugh. Great character with wonderful one liners.

    Come back Louie :(:(

    About the end of last night's episode. Technically speaking, did Barry murder Bill? I know he was in a bad state already, but doesn't grabbing and shaking someone violently constitute an assault? If you assault someone and they die ten seconds later, that looks a lot like murder.

    The last couple of shots of Barry seemed to confirm it - he looked pretty evil in the shadows, behind the bars of the window-blinds.

    Maybe they're going to remake Porridge as a Fair City spin-off, with Barry as Fletcher and Brendan as Godber. All they need is Deegan as Mr Mackay, and we could have comedy gold.

    bloody hell bucko bill deserved it. I would have had great pleasure in doing it myself. Bill murdered 3 people, he deserves it. :mad::mad::mad:

    haha, she really annoyed me. I wish Paul would have said something to her, though it was good seeing Ray go back to Paul's and Christy happy that all is well.

    From those pics, why and how would he kiss Renee? has the men no blooming sense.

    I suppose under the circumstances with the trial and all about floyd, sense goes out the window. Just hope Carol doesnt find out.

    It's in RTÉ - if you don't know where RTÉ is, just ask someone...
    The Fair City exterior set is way down the back... walk past the canteen and veer right through the grassy area and you'll see it... It's not hard to find...

    I bet she clamps herself to his face like the creature from Alien. I will be surprised if he has much choice in the matter.

    She really does annoy me. She can't stand to see anyone else with him. Can you imagine if Carol finds out :eek:

    I hope she does, and I hope she doesn't restrict herself to shouting. One scene of Carol chasing Renee down Carrigstown High Street with a manky mop and a slop-bucket, and I will double my licence fee this year.

    (Legal note: this is not true.)

    What's going to happen with Bob and Renee? They don't really look like a couple any more.

    Let's assume they break up, and Christy and Renee get together again. Does Bob leave Carrigstown? That would be a disaster. Does Renee? If she does, she will take Christy, and that would be even worse.

    But if the papers are right, five major characters are going to be written out between now and Christmas. Renee and Christy would be two big names at a stroke. Assuming Brendan is found guilty, that gives us our five (including Bill and Annette).

    It also leaves Bob and Heather together in Carrigstown, both isolated, both lonely....

    Interesting possibilities there. She certainly has a history. But could they really stand the loss of Christy?

    Oh no, I wouldn't like to see Christy go, I reckon if he did, Louie would buy the shop, another shop to add to his impressive empire :D I wouldn't like to see Renee go either but I will start a petition if Bob is forced out :mad::D I like Bob and to put him with Heather would kill me. She sucks the life out of people with her constant moaning and nagging.

    Seriously is there no chance of Paul & Niamh being hit by a typhoon or something :(

    I forgot about Saoirse. We could probably include Caitriona as well.

    Hardly likely now i'd say seen as Ringo is off to Coronation Street.

    I don't think it was Keith, am thinking it was someone totally different. Most pointless character, same with Ringo, seeing as he isn't coming back either.

    He was pretty big though as he married a central character in the soap. He was in it longer than a few weeks. He is in Fair City since July:

    so that makes it over 3 months...
