Unless Will stabs Mairead there is no way this idiot can accept Will isnt a saint.



Wait THATS IT?

Are we sure that it wasn't Cristiano's neck attracting Wills hands to it and poor Will had no control, that it was Critiano's necks fault.

Flowergirl201

Ooohhhhhhhhh finally

pjohnson

Dont fúckin hug her Damien kick her back to her beloved hubby.

branie2

Mairead knows the truth know!

BettePorter

After all these weeks ....that was a crap reveal !

RobertKK

Mairead's master plan worked. She got Will to lie to the Gardai, Cristiano to tell the truth and Will caught in the act.

Ok that was not her master plan, but at last...

How long is Shaddon Curley expected to stay?

Brilliant, finally M Airhead walked in on Will attacking Cristiano, delighted, and actually had a tear in my eye for poor Cristiano when she brought him over to Damiens

Can't wait to see next weeks episodes!

Couldn't believe how crazy Will seemed when Cristiano came back from the gardai station and will was all like ' yay everythings back to normal now lets watch a movie'

Wanderer2010

What exactly were the "distressing" scenes lastnight? Did I miss something?

And with that, this ridiculous box-ticking storyline concludes, with a cosy group hug where everyone finally sees the villain for who he is...just like real life. :rolleyes:

I was wondering what with Robbie gone, how they would keep Snarler in this show, seems they are going to pair her up with Ger for another 2 decades of repetitive gangster storylines with money lenders and distant relatives of Billy Meehan. Aisling O Neil must have some hold over that show, they literally will never ever sack her.

Mister Vain

That was the most fake punch ever.

Hopfully a lot longer than Rory Cowen, that Bosco thing is ridiculous

I thought fair city would come up with something more creative for Airhead to find out.

This story line is only getting started i'd say in time for Xmas.

Someone needs to tell Shaddon Curley there’s no such thing as a P45 anymore, with real-time PAYE reporting.

Well that reveal was a damp squib

MairHead could have listened a few seconds more at the door, for a bit more realism.

I wish Damo could have said "told ya so" but it wasn't to be. Group hug instead...

I'm liking Sharon Curly behind the bar, I think it's only a matter of time before Hayley gets there too. I bet Jane will work in the station.

His house is up for sale . Pic of him in paper and at first glance I thought it was yet another one of will.

jos28

After weeks of the Will/Damo/Dopey MairHead drama it came to a head with MairHead hearing Will shouting while she is outside the door. The same thing happened last week when she witnessed Cristiano walloping Will with saucepan

Bring Jake back !!

Immortal Starlight

It was hardly worth watching at all really. After all the weeks of build up and Will being so creepy and Mairead being so dopey. Then after proving for ages she is the most stupid and gullible woman ever she puts the whole story together in record time. Waste of a story line.
I thought it was hilarious tonight when Ger said to Carol that she knew better than to cross her. In all fairness what has Carol ever done to anyone to get a reputation as a hard nut. I don't think she has any old friends of Billy Meehan that owe her a favour either so it's stupid for Ger to be afraid of her.

Or at least stood shocked at the door for a second. She was in breaking it up faster than Usain Bolt before she could’ve really seen properly what was going on.

Thought we would’ve at least gotten a longer scene with Will trying to say he was defending himself.

I hope Will will double down and stick to his charges against Cristiano.. Wouldn’t like to go down the usual route of no more said about it by Deegan.

The ending was almost as if the writers were told last minute the actors’ were all due their 3 month break so had to finish the story now.

Drifter50

Gawd, these writers are pathetic. They pursued it along ridiculous lines, it had to come to an end as it was beyond farcical. Any writer worth his/her salt could have made a decent ending of it but no, 10 seconds of a damp squib

Qrt

“What’s the code for the door?”

“P45”

She's also the daughter of Johnny One/Eanna MacLiam, so Fair City royalty

Tea Shock

After trying it a few different ways, I've come to the conclusion that reading the comments about each episode on this thread before actually watching the episode is the best craic in watching Fair City!

This story aint over yet folks. You haven't seen Will in full Norman Bates Psycho mode yet!

I'm thinking they should get Will to hold Miread captive in a small room for about a year. That'll be different!

No one should have had any hopes for the Will/Cristiano domestic abuse storyline, considering how Fair City writers have completely butchered storylines with potential in the past.


From the start it seemed rushed and contrived. For a year they had been in a committed relationship, and seemed happy. Then, out of the blue, for no apparent reason whatsoever, Will starts treating Cristiano like s*** as soon as he comes back from Chile, and acts paranoid with regards to what Cris was up to over there, when it was him who tried to kiss Mairead in Cris's absence.

Then, out of nowhere he's being physically violent towards him, and in record time, Cris becomes a shell of his former self.

In reality, domestic abuse is insidious. Usually, it starts off with psychological abuse. Sustained put downs and jibes that wear away at a person's confidence over time, before it finally escalates, but by then, the person who is being abused has been robbed off all self esteem and believes that their abuser really loves them and that they're in the wrong.

No way would Cristiano's confidence have eroded that quickly. It hadn't been going on for long enough before the first physical assault, and straight away, if it was real life; he'd have walked out the door at that and demanded that Will sort himself out. The shock of the turn in the relationship would have jarred him into action. But, instead, the story got the usual laughable Fair City treatment.... It could have been a great storyline, instead it was almost a joke - especially Mairead's blinkered behaviour.

Sparko

I hope Damien isn't going to just take Mairead back without a second thought. She treated him appallingly. And didn't all this nonsense with Will lead to Caoimhe fleeing Carrigstown with his child, shortly after he was starting to get himself back on her good side and having access?
