    *Rawr face* 'You're getting shot scumbag' *Rawr face*. They should rename themselves that 'IRArrrrrrrrr'. It was probably the constipation, I'm telling ya, I've diagnosed the problem, he'd want to get that sorted fairly lively! He'd be a much happier person for it!:D

    Maybe he's taking after Git, he's into a bit of the auld cannibalism, and his last meal ain't agreeing with him?

    Best thing is i havent a clue where its going. i sure as hell didnt see tommy and danos wife hooking up (and man does she seem keen, ya missed out nide ! :) )


    That's because it was a fairly ridiculous self serving plot turn.

    So she turned into a man eater after a few joints? All her reluctance and moral doubt gone as she merrily texts her new beau?
    Please!:rolleyes:


    And could somebody tell me the name of another series where one of the principals is so obstinately one dimensional? All he does is grimace at, growl at and hurt people.

    Good stuff happening in this episode but let down again by some horrendous writing and character developement imo.

    The real RA aren't happy campers...

    Communication through bricks is a rare sight these days :p

    And yet you're still watching it to come on here only to rant on and on and on.

    Seriously you got the last thread closed with your rubbish, go away and leave it to people who enjoy the show.

    Anyone reckon Darran dropped the ball by letting Elmo go? It's only a matter of time for that guy unless he skips town with the fam. Why kill the woman but let Elmo live even after he talked? Seems odd.
    Good plot twist with Tommy and the RA wife. This could be ugly!

    He didn't go with the intention of killing the woman but she saw him.

    I offered my opinion (it's just an opinion...relax) and others seemed to think I wasn't entitled to it. That was why the thread was closed imo.
    This is the 'Arts' forum and the television section, it is for discussion of television, which I watch, good and bad. I do not leave my critical faculties in the kitchen however.
    If you want a 'love-in' open a thread in After Hours and I'll leave you to it.

    Do you have any idea why a principal character (Dano) in something that calls itself and is referred to as a serious drama is so one dimensional?

    Yea silly letting him off again, only thing is like someone said earlier if he's killed Dano smells a rat as he wants him alive to torture info out of him.

    Great episode tonight it's all heading for absolute mayhem!

    What do you mean like that he doesn't have a softer side to him?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,075 ✭✭✭Rasmus

    I know why he did it, but it was a new moral leap for him - one which wouldn't be further stretched by clipping Elmo. His principles seem to be all over the shop : )

    Another unreal hour of Love/Hate. I think it's so well written.

    I was literally on the edge of the couch for most of it and as said , I genuinely have no idea how its all going to end up!

    I can't believe Donna , fist of all had sex with Fran the man , but then told him about Siobhan!

    I really have no idea what's going to happen but Siobhan could get clipped! She is Nidge's niece but I don't think that would bother him if it came down to it. Like he said it season 2...Warren (his son) is about the only person he wouldn't hurt!

    The one liners from Fran and Nidge are very funny!!

    Ahh. Yes, the RA fellas missus hated the Da. Can guess why now.

    No way will she be clipped. Maybe the lads will send her to London or something.

    I really think Nidge would if he really had to. It could all get too much for her.

    IRA man will get sore balls one of these days to go along with his constipation. He will then check the wife's phone and find all the flirty messages to Tommy....and then the s*it will well and truly fly.

    Honestly though Tommy must have soft, almost liquidised sh*t for brains. Did anyone notice the real stern disapproving head on the baby in the brothel? Hillarious :D

    But as has already been said danno wanted him alive to get the info on his da out of him so if he kills him it'll make it look like they wanted to stop him talking. Thats my take on it anyhow :)

    I thought you're supposed to have blue balls before sex, not after

    I find it bewildering as the series develops what they are doing with Dano. He is just there as his father was as a stereotype and they will do what they want with him. That is neither credible or good writing. One minute he is being closely hounded by special branch yet can go take delivery of boxes marked RPG and drive them unfettered to a hiding place, the next minute he is lying poleaxed and prone with what we are told is a serious alcohol problem. How threatening could somebody like that be to somebody like Nidge?
    He is a ridiculous character if you think about it.

    Well Nidge's character is psychopathic irrespective of him being a crime boss. He is almost devoid of empathy and doesn't seem interested in Trish or have feelings at all. He'd probably be in a suit killing escorts in Dublin 2 in another life. So yeah it's possible he'd clip Siobhan I guess!

    As Nidge said the first episode 'This is heavy duty stuff, your taking on a whole army'.

    Can anybody explain why he was not wearing a balaclava when going to kill Elmos cousin?

    For the purposes of the storyline obviously..don't overthink it.
