    Vogue was just on the Irelands Got Talent thingy aftershow with Dustin. She does seem very natural. Dustin was slagging her about having a mouth like a horse. She didnt sound as 'manly' as she does on Fade St. Wonder if they are manipulating the sound on FS as well?
    I reckon she would be good fun on a night out.

    Stupid question but is Vogue her real name?

    Was wondering that myself. They were calling her Vogue anyway.

    Just saw this as someone I knew thought they might be featured in the hotel in Galway.

    Was it me or was that bit about them having no drink for the event despite being in a 5 star hotel absolutely ridiculous? Why did they need a guy to come from Dublin in a car with alcohol? Talk about poor writing. Will have a look at the skits now. I'll be amazed if they were worse than that episode.:)

    Yeah that was ridiculous. Your man has to drive all the way from Dublin with a few boxes of plonk. I'm pretty sure they could have sourced whatever they needed fairly easily in Galway. Maybe just a lame excuse to get them all together in the same place.

    Especially in these recessionary times (:)) when I'm sure there'd be plenty of places in Galway that would have appreciated the business!

    It was definite a weak, lame way to get them all together.

    I actually find that dark haired knob of an agony uncle way worse than Harrison. What a sleaze.

    Louise is so dry , I say that Harrison had to bring her out about twenty times before she would even hold his hand!! The drink thing was pretty stupid. No off license in Galway? Where is Vogue's boyfriend in all of this?

    Maybe he didn't want to be associated on screen with those pea-brained nimwits?

    no surprise that the "G" hotel was featured in fake street. I can't believe that that horrible monstrosity has not closed yet. The decor is vile - it's like blind people tripping on acid were let loose with giant lumps of different coloured play-dough.

    Didn't Philip Treacy design the decor? But yeah, it seems a very Celtic Tiger kinda place, seems incongruous with Galway too.

    that's it - probably the first and last time a hat-designer was allowed do hotel-decor. stick to the peacock feathers dude. It's truly hideous. I was there last summer during the Galway races having a drink (had never witnessed it), there happened to be some bint with a microphone presenting some award for some best-dressed something or other and she was commenting how appropriate it was that the awards were being made in such tasteful and stylish environs as the "G". I nearly spat out a mouthful of whatever I was drinking at the time.

    Lol. Its located off a roundabout overlooking a retail park, a cinema, an industrial estate, two schools, two filling stations, a pub, an estate, a bus stop and a railway bridge.

    aint no roundabout there now, twas changed to a junction year before last, the rest is pretty spot on, basically it's a converted office block.

    what makes me laugh is the sign above the front desk:

    " This must be the place":rolleyes:

    It's just so hilarious that they're stuck in some sort of pre-2007 bubble. Why did they not make this show back then, at the height of the Celtic Tiger? It all seems so ridiculous now. And LOL @ Louise being at college. Must be some dossy degree she's doing if she has all her days free to intern at Stellar and do events.

    I think that was the idea, but it got delayed.

    True. I forgot lol. Ive always called it Moneenigesia Cross even after they turned it into a roundabout and back again. I just got into the habit of telling people 'but its a roundabout now'.
    I still direct people to the 'new bridge' as well :-)

    Judging by the comments here, this show still appears to a load of sh*te. I really thought they were going to get the hang of this fake acting lark with realistic storylines by now. oh well...

    Sigh.

    *moves along*

    Hey. Just arrived here after watching the last 2 episodes back to back, and I'm still hooked. Car-crash TV in many, many ways but as a way of raising one's blood pressure, watching Fade Street is hard to beat. Love the Michael O'Doherty character. His "tattooed fugwits" comment? Never a truer word spoken. And Dani's angst at not getting her big break as a tattoo artist? Even though it took her weeks to produce a portfolio - of crap sub-Leaving Cert art? Brilliant.

    I know the Tattooed Fúckwits were probably told to play up for the cameras but I think they're over-egging the pudding just a smidge.
