You've obviously no issues with Corrie/Eastenders etc, "suffering" from the same issues......

Eastenders is full of violence though...

The non cursing is obvious.

Jesus the sooner they get rid of that charmless wooden tosspot Louise's boyfriend, whose name escapes me, the better! He's bloody awful, can't even act smarmy!

Darren is still as wooden as ever but at least he's ridiculously good looking, lol, reminds me of a dark haired Joshua Jackson!

Tbf Fair City isn't know for its quality thespians. The more they show him the better, so bad hes good awful

Luke and Darren have exactly the same 'careful reading voice' tone for every line.

I laughed at someone telling grungy Darren he 'could do a lot better than Neasa'. Neasa? one of the Carrigstown few who wasn't beaten with the ugly stick. He would be so lucky.

I can't understand how Damien can act so relaxed and chatty with Suzanne. If anyone has forgotten her abusive behaviour, it was extremely scary to watch.
Louise has just scratched the surface. She wouldn't even stand in the same room as Suzanne if she knew just how horrible she was. If Suzanne was a real person I would be very concerned about the welfare of baby Hannah.

Darren and Louise are not exactly too upset about their mother dying. It is as if they are fitting the funeral into their social diary. If my mother was being buried I know I would be inconsolable. In soap terms, Rita was a good mother to the kids.
Reopening Helen's grave should send the floodgates opening. Yvonne gave the Doyle's a good name which is ironic.

It's completely unrealistic. Had it been the other way around, and Damian was guilty of spousal abuse, he would have met a nasty end by now (Like Little Mo's husband in EE, and numerous other wifebeating soap characters) I think that the reason Suzanne is getting such an easy time from writers is because of her gender - I'm female myself, so this isn't a case of me being sexist - but fair should be fair, female abusers should cop the same flack and inspire the same loathing as their male counterparts. The fact that she's female, doesn't make her actions any less abhorrent.

Why the hell doesn't she just leave Tommy if it's Luke she really wants?

Thank you to the poster who pointed out Darren and Neasa's ages. I don't know why I thought she was a good bit older then him. She is spoken for though isn't she even if the bloke is not around at the moment?

I think her 'relationship' with Finn was casual.

If Louise (the youngest Doyle) is 25 and Rita was born in 1951, what age was she when she had Helen??? If Helen and Jimmy were both older than Yvonne who is now 36 then Rita must have been quite young marrying Bela!

Yvonne was brilliant again tonight. Hope she doesn't leave

I don't think they were married when she got pregnant with Helen (she was quite young) I vaguely remember Hannah (her mother) saying something to that effect when Rita was bemoaning life with Bela.

I answered that previously. Rita was 20 per the dates on the gravestone.

you just knew this was a serious row when the phone got stamped on ...in real life of course that would be a case for Judge Judy ..."have you ever heard anything like this, Bird?"

I loved Bryan Murray in Bread - I think he played Shifty.

All Tommy has to do is start showing an interest in another woman and Judith will be back in his bed.

Strikes me she has reached that place most women reach sooner or later where she cuts off and leaves the philandering husband. I think Judith has fallen through the abyss and has decided being with Luke is better for her. The **** will hit the fan this week when Tommy sees his scheming sick plan backfired.

Have to read the spoilers now to see if I'm on right track.

Pete was the sharp dressed man in RAW. That's where he must disappear to.

Lucy will be at the Gate (Theatre) end January.

rachel is left alot of money in rita will dareen & the lousie arent happy about it so they scheme to get it back

this storyline is making me sad soap imditating life for me it is

Agreed. The only reason Suzanne isn't still beating Damien is because the relationship ended, and she didn't die while in violent mode, à la Damien or wee Kylie's dads. Compare to the similar situation in Corrie - when Tyrone's partner is inevitably outed for her actions and is no longer with him, she won't be all pally with everyone again just because she no longer had opportunity to beat him. Suzanne keeps saying she can't handle everyone knowing and judging, but far as I can see the only people who even mention it are Louise and that schmuck she's with, and that's only because its news to them.

rachel goes full diva with rita money and leo daughter or charolette is impressed

Will Bella get Ritas Bell in her last will and testament?

She will then be able to sing ..........................

You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell
You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell
You can ring my be-e-ell, ring my bell"

Is Suzanne getting palsy walsy with Damian again? This would be consistent, where the abused party goes back to the abuser. And everyone looks on scratching their heads in confusion. I think Suzanne will stick around, the new young one in the pink jacket isn't cut out for austerity and minding Bela.

Bela has been acting well lately.

Anyway, I would have thought that whatever dollar she had left would go to Bella, especially if it's from a life policy cause that is just the way they are worked!

Stephen was in a tracking shot for just 2.8 seconds and he's just stole the episode

So which one of the Waltons will stay to look after "Paw" is his decrepitude?

What a dullarse storyline.

Meangadh

Back away from the crazy lady Damien...

Meangadh

How the hell did that lad act that part without bursting his arse laughing??

nice_very

dammit I forgot there was a new thread, and me wondering why I was getting no new post messages..


nice panning shot of Stephen tonight

sffc

No top on and eyes tight shut .... hmmm .... not very compromising is it? ?????

Mick Murdock

LMAO.. Loved the photo at the end! Beating the same old drum but Ciara O'Callaghan is fantastic as Yvonne!


Hilarious!

Cathyht

Not MORE blackmail?

tonyclifton

Jesus Nessa really is some slut Wayne was right ))that Ryan fella is a gimp .... Obviously gets ur from Judith mad in the cat mad in the kitten ))

Leinsterr

It was so funny when Wayne was so smug when correcting darren on the stock exchange when he doesn't know anything about it himself. Also, has anyone else noticed that darren and Eddie are like twins. They have the same accent, look the same, both tried to get stuck into Neasa and are both terrible actors.

maurasmith50

What age is Rachel supposed to be? I thought she was about 15/16, but she looked and sounded about 10 tonight??

I don't agree with all the Yvonne-worship lately on this site. I think she has had too much Botox done and her forehead looks frozen. Just a guess, I could be wrong... but the eyebrows arch this way and that while the brow stays stone still.

I do rate her acting mind, I am just not as impressed as some folks have been recently. I think Bob is great, also Cass and a few others...Carol too, Louis and Dermot as well...good soap acting.

As for Esther, I wouldn't describe her as anything more than a ham. The actor who plays Ben should also be given his p45. And as for Jo, she should be exiled to Ros na Run...which nobody really watches, do they?
