Theresh a FIIIIINE line between murder...and CHEEK.

The Garda sketches are brilliant. Loved the notebook & pin sketch and also the domestic dispute sketch.

DOMESTHTIC DISPUTES....Always solve themshelves.

I think there may have been some specific very bad amateurish norn Ire soap opera that showed some embarrassing stereotypes and the "long arm" comes from there. TBH I don't even need to know the source to enjoy it - its such a silly/true version of Taigue\Prod characteristics......

Don't think they long arm is a specific reference to anything. I think it's just a sh*t catchphrase that McSavage thought up - something along the lines of what a show like that would have had.

Joe Duffy's supposed to be none to pleased about the John Duffy sendup, I wonder how Hector feels about his opposite? McSavage has certainly got enough mileage out of him becoming the breakout character of this series.

Hector in fairness to him had 'The water boiling quiz' on the radio the morning after so he obviously took it well and judging by this video, Sloppy....sorry i mean Pat Kenny seems to see the lighter side of it also.

Dunno what Duffys problem is to be honest. I dont think he gets that bad a doing and the radio presenter is actually called John and not Joe tbh. He is overpaid and should lighten the f*ck up.

I assume it's a dig at Give my Head peace, a BBC NI comedy production, which was generally shyte. Probably a dig at Protestant vs. Catholic humour in the North vs. the South.

Ya that was mad alrite but i still think Duffy should have the sense to take it as a joke in my opinion.

BTW off topic I know but while Navan isnt exactly a a huge urban jungle but since when are they considered culchies?
is it just anyone outside that m50 circle thats a culchie ? maybe for south west dublin (N7) its Newlands cross or the Poitin still?

Depends on who you're talking to. A certain type of inner-city Dubliner considers anyone living outside the two canals a culchie (which would also mean large sections of dublin suburbia), but with the urban sprawl of Dublin that occured over the last few decades, I'd say you have a lot of Dubs who have a much looser definition of the term now, probably due to subliminal guilt about having moved to the sticks themselves . It's all in the mind anyway. It's not like it was defined at some official academic conference or anything. And don't get me started on the much abused and misunderstood historical term "The Pale".....

Everyone in the Republic outside of Dublin is a culchie. It doesn't matter if you're from Navan, Roscommom, Cork, Kerry, Leitrim or Offaly.

Definately one of my favourite clips of the series.

They removed fair city from the player because numbers where droppIng on the actual show, so they could've done the same with the savage eye

Another example of Irsh attempt at comedy/humour going horribly wrong. They just don't get it.

That's not correct. Fair City isn't on the player due to contract issues with the actors.

It appears so:

Fair City is currently not available to view on RTÉ Player as we do not have on-demand rights to show it on this platform. We intend and hope to provide Fair City episodes for on-demand viewing in the future.
