    Karen's story is so sad. For anyone going through it.

    Cristiano is as good a counsellor as Miriam :)

    Christiano works in a coffee shop... But he stopped on his way to work to buy a coffee in another coffee shop (vinos)?

    ...and yet, no matter how high passions run, there is never a swear word uttered ....the nearest was when Caddle mentioned the cult word tonight

    Miriam with urgent business in the community centre in tonight's episode I see.. Again just wandering around when you would expect her to keeping a low profile!

    I know they need characters to interact but it's just so lazy the way everyone wanders around the same 3 places all day, regardless of the day (like Christmas Day) or when wandering around in public would be the last thing you'd expect someone to be doing.

    Ugh God, the last few episodes really have been utterly dreadful. Poor acting, nonsensical plots lines and downright terrible scripts. While the sort-of-Cult was at least a little bit of excitement in a sea of boredom, the plot was really poor. The whole thing felt disjointed, I kept feeling like I had missed something. Pete and Tommy banging on about how the group was a danger to the community but the only thing they did was graffiti the hungry pig and then Emmett assaulted Pete which although worse was hardly the exploits of real-life dangerous cults.

    The worst plot for me at the moment is the whole Damo vs Caoimhe storyline. I've no idea what the writers are going for here. Both characters are utterly reprehensible, Damo acting like a pyscho but yet the victim of Caoimhe's manipulation means that I don't sympathise with either of them. Whats the point the writers are trying to make? If they were trying to show the difficulties that fathers face with custody etc. then its been made completely redundant by his kidnapping and rage. Equally I can't feel sorry for Caoimhe (not only because I've always hated her character) because she has behaved in a manipulative and selfish way. Other than that all the other storylines have been their usual boring selves and I'm dreading the return of Kerri-Ann and crew.

    Well Dan did save her life. He also shagged her in the back of a van.

    Intense mode position in the bed would be a new one :-D Both would bring serious levels of intensity!

    I had a really weird dream last night about Miriam. This is basically how it went. We were both trying to solve armed robberies of shopping centers in which people got shot dead.(no flare guns). We always got so near but they always beat us. She had drawing of the the robbers/scenes in her handbag for some reason and we said we were like we were in an episode of Silent Witness for some reason. She was really nice and friendly!

    That's what I was worried about. She even had to get the big dramatic moment of "You brought this cult down on us!" to Manson, even though she didn't say two words about them all year. Best line was Robbie telling her to shut up. Speaking on behalf of the nation there pal.

    Eoghan and Debbie seem 100% ok with just living in the house where 2 people were killed only a week ago, not a bother on them :confused::confused:

    Who cleaned the petrol from the carpets? Isnt it still a crime scene?

    I find Caoimhe annoying in the last two years or so because she is never happy and having saint Tommy with her really grates as me as well.

    Opened with Karen coming out of Vinos cause “everyone is talking about Dan”... cuts to inside of vinos where the place is half empty and Robbie and Carol are wondering how Karen is.

    Christiano going for his coffee in vinos...Paul obviously hasn’t told him how good the coffee in the Spar is yet.

    The coffee in Christiano own coffee shop must be awful!

    Her dramatic moments only ever achieve her cementing her dreadful acting. Don't know why they do it!

    I wonder will they play 'Wheelin in the years' at Wheelie Dan's funeral


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 92,394 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    The actor who plays Dan was on last night's SixO'Clock show on TV3, kinda laughed himself at Dan's flair gun exit and wheelchair leap

    I was really expecting a dream about Amy Huberman in the intense position at the start.

    Whatever you're into!

    Aoife is a fine looking woman.

    Surely Dan must have some family member that will show up at the funeral.

    Weren't they trying to contact his brother in the last episode?

    Ah right.

    Did he not grow up with the Doyles as that is how Yvonne knew him so would be a "local"
