Isn't it brilliant to be able to sit down and watch such quality home grown entertainment on a Sunday evening

"Whats the smell" says Erica and a jerry can of petrol sitting on the counter.

And Doug a mechanic doesn't know what petrol smells like either!

Desperate stuff

Roots 2020

Did the whole cast, scriptwriters and producers get Covid?

Are these new side effects the WHO wasn't aware of?

I thought how it was they were doing flashbacks but I don't the fair city peeps would that innovative to do that.

Anyone remember Acorn Antiques, Victoria Wood's spoof soap??

Showing good old storylines like Billy Meehan etc would have been a brilliant idea. It would have given them time to film some decent episodes instead of filming this tripe. Presumably the writers/cast have regular meetings. I'd love to know how they consider this worthy of production.

Maybe the star writers have been told to keep with the absolute madness and weirdness of the year 2020? I’m clutching, I know; but I can’t recall this show, as bad as it is, being this utterly gick!!

I'm confused two Louie Gleesons

Sparko

People go here, they see each other, maybe get a hug!

What sort of line was that. That episode, I don't even know where to start. 0/10

Louis Gleeson (the fella from this episode), was in it years ago. Mike and Louie (Carol's son's dad) are his cousins. When Mike died, he left his restaurant to his brother Louie in his will. Louis arrived and pretended to be Louie to try and scam them.

That's as much as I've been able to pull together from Google.

Away With The Fairies

Was there some mixup with scenes tonight? Erica in the flat listening to music. Then having coffee with Damien. Then coming out of the flat.

glenfieldman

Tonight was one of the worst ive watched
The contiunity was auful
And Bob said to Huhie "who will I hurt if he torched the place", maybe the two companys beside the pig

That was utter tripe.

The writer's are trying to be funny and light hearted in these times!

Why would someone leave their jocks in the sink? Do they not have a washing machine?

Is this now a comedy?

No it was a comedy unintentionally now it’s just pure sh*te.

Hughie is a very good actor aswell. When he fell off the wagon, he was brilliant at portraying an alcoholic.

I thought the drama..(fair City)was on first and comedy (kilnascully) on after. As it turned out. It was,other way around lol.

And Erica thinks it’s not weird there was petrol around the place?

Dodgy electrics and petrol all over the place and wanted her out of the flat.

Ah sure he's doing some remodelling.

Yeah, noticed that. Wardrobe clearly haven't come back to work yet. The two lads must have walked onto set after coming back from a Stag party...and had to just wear what they had on.

Come to think of it, the lad that wrote this poxy episode.... probably wrote it, while on the piss (maybe at the same Stag party)

happyday

That was totally disjointed with a scene out of nowhere in the middle with Erica having coffee with Damien in the park and next scene coming into the Pig from upstairs on her crutches? How could they leave that in?

Nokia6230i

Sacre Bleu! Where do I start? Damo on the bike? Pointless. Banging on about trying the menu in the 15 Restaurants/Cafes along his route to the LUAS; this is Damo the painter/decorator getting on the LUAS with his tins & brushes etc. right? Does no one think logically?

As for the guy who broke into the Pig? Who he other than some randomer who we're led to believe knew the place from when Louis & Mike had it? Like....wasn't that Vinos that they both ran and not the Pig?????

As for Ericas humming? Crikey it's not even in tune with a or indeed any tune..........

Hughie rocking in through back door; I presume he got keys as part of storyling but why not use front door?

As for the burglar, what's in it for him if the joint goes up? The 40 quid in the till?

So the two of 'em get Doug & Erica to help 'em clean up? Erica on crutches with spilt liquid, petrol on floor but conveniently makes a recovery sufficient enough to leave crutches to the side?

Meanwhile Bob & Hughie, who could've done the huge amount of cleaning up stand/sit & look on?

Licence fee's due for renewal at end of month; do I get a discount?
