I wonder could Dermot be headed by a heart attack or break down perhaps over his money problems or he could join the Bishop empire to make more cash DERMO

Tommy's quote "I'm here for the ride!"

God Finn is a bad actor. That scene last night with Paul was terrible. Everything he does sounds forced. It wasnt even that complicated a scene. He just over eggs everything. Hook him up with caoimhe and send them out to Africa to help out Ringo

But we all know that Ringo didn't actually go to Africa. He went to Weatherfield in Manchester and was working as a barman.:p

Wayne should move in with Robert,It would be hilarious!

Could you imagine being Roberts flatmate.

Robert pays €900 a month rent? Has Carrigstown moved to the southside?

Rebecca looks better with her hair up imo. I thought Bryan Murray (Bob) was excellent in that scene tonight discussing a sensitive issue about his son dying and how death is so final and you never will see that individual again. Good to see Dean and Leo in scenes together. I must remember to limit my posts to discussing the past stories on Fair City and not revealing spoilers. It was simply that I just didn't think of the fact that the paternity storyline had not been shown yet so I just want to emphasise my sincere apology again to those who feel I have spoilt their enjoyment of the story.

Yeah, I agree. Finn doesn't seem like a natural actor imo. If you compare him to Wayne (similar age) or older actors such as Bryan Murray, Clelia Murphy, Martina Stanley. The young actor such as the young lad who plays the part of Sean Cassidy is quite natural. Caoimhe though is not a favourite. She scowls and it does irritate me in her scenes. Not a character I would miss very much I have to say. Another character which I don't like is Eileen Bishop. (just too put on imho)
It feels as if they are just learning off the lines and saying them in parrot form. A bit like I used to do when I had to spend numerous tough hours learning off quotations from poetry and plays when I was suffering ( studying ) for my Leaving Cert. What awful memories!

I loved those scenes on Sunday between Tommy and Judith ! The writing between these two is very good. Up to now we have seen Judith as the cool calm doctor but now as the story develops we can see that she is actually very insecure and vulnerable. Poor Judith i really feel for her, its obvious that Tommy is pulling the strings there!

I'm really looking forward to where this story goes as i reckon when Judith finds out about Jo she will go nuts!!

I missed that episode and the repeat on Monday , damn iplayer and their dispute :mad:

Very hard to follow missed episodes when they're not on the rte player

Sam Tyler

Yeah i too wish they would post the repeats on the player its a shame if they can do it for "eastenders" why not fair city? "Ros na Run" is on the the tg4 player!

Bob Charles is a really complex character played very well by Bryan Murray, the scenes with Louie and carol was very good. The regret he has over the death of his own son is what defines this character i reckon.

On the Finn debate can i say i quite like the character and yer man that plays him seems to be doing a good job in my opinion not the best actor ever but does a good job. Whats going on with him and Yvonne? Is that all over??

Keith was mentioned tonight, i haven't been a regular viewer so where is he??

Does anyone get the feeling that Rebecca is a bit of a nympho? Every episode she's in seems to finish with her wanting to play bedroom gymnastics, whatever the situation.

Yeah there is a name for people like her....:D

Why was Carol making weird faces at Christy in the scene before the break???
I thought that the reaction of Louie and Carol to Christy's stance on the paternity of the baby was unusual. Christy has lost one son......Do they think that if he had another son, he would not want to have anything to do with him if he was the father. They really thought that he could live in the same street as his child and pretend that he was not the father, even if he was????

I'm beginning to notice a disturbing pattern developing so bear with me. . . Christy started the whole greasy slicked back hair thing, which suddenly became popular with Louie, both of which been with Carol. Imagine my horror in tonights episode to see the gorgeous Finn going down this route tonight! Whats next for him, it's beginning to look like a hookup with Carol if previous form is anything to be looked at!

Deegan has had this hair style for quite a while, maybe next for her ?
I'd say they already have "history" what with her ganster ways and him in the guards.

I'm told I'm quite like Robert in my ways. Dunno if that's good or bad but I do think he adds that nice bit of comedy to the show. I agree, him and wayne would be classic.

Bob is very believable when he talks about his dead son. I can really feel his pain and anguish when he discusses it with anybody. He's such a brilliant actor.

I live on the northside and pay 950 Euro a month for a 2 bed apartment...

Looks like Bob got breakfast in bed with some extras the dirty dog.

'Thanks Robert I hope to hear from you soon.' 'You probably wont.' Class!

Can't believe Finn got the room. Why not Wayne?FC missed an opportunity with that one. Would have made for great comic relief!

Thanks for the spoilers Angel. I have to say I hadn't a clue about how to read them but I got a little help from google. Glad about the result for Carol's baby. It makes the whole louie and Carol relationship special and also time for Christy to really know that Carol is really in the past as far as he is concerned. It was a little bit awkward tonight to see Carol put the baby monitor near the cash register in front of people who were led to believe the baby was still in hospital.

I feel sorry for Christy he has nothing I wish the baby was his and I think Carol and Louis are being horrible to him really gone off Carol and she was a great character

I said that when I watched her this evening. I have never heard of anyone dealing with their grief by repeatedly trying to get the leg over!

Finn and Robert?? Jesus! Way to ruin a perfectly good character FC writers (I refer OBVIOUSLY to Robert!).

I love Robert. His character is so unique to soaps.

Robert reminds me of Sheldon in The Big Bang Theory.

*Edit..Sorry just scrolled up to see it was said already..And of course I couldnt get it right aswell

Jon, what was the movie called? Was it "Ciara Does Carrigstown" ??

angel01

I thought it was terrible writing the way they have portrayed Louie and Carol over their treatment to Christy, How can they act as if Christy could be cut out of being a father (especially since he has lost Floyd )

Very unlike Carol I thought. :(
