    Leo singing to the "homeless" (extras). I'd be straight out again to my sleeping bag.

    Not sure. Shes never been given the chance to do anything outside of "forgive Paul for affair, settle into family life, Paul has another affair, repeat as above".

    She's over hamming it at the minute. Especially when she's lying to Paul. He seems blind to it so maybe she's doing a good job. Or maybe he's just blind. I hope that made sense.

    Nicola is quite possibly the most unbelievable and unrealistic cast character in history.. Makes Hayley look original...

    All jokes aside that was dreadful,only one episode last week building towards an hour long special in which we didn't get to see Paul get his comeupance and Callum is really obnoxious & unlikeable since he came back i was actually hoping Oisin would knock him out

    I have never seen a show strangle the life out of plots as much as FC. I have said it before and will say it again. They really need to drop a weekly episode. 4 episodes with so few plots is far too much to carry.

    Well I'm going to come right out and say it: I thoroughly enjoyed the FC Christmas episode! There were plenty of funny one liners and even an element of panto to it. Ok the storylines are still a pile of oul ring but the general tone of the episode was excellent, perfect for Christmas day. I'll be laughing til next winter at the thought of Jane falling for terminally boring single father and accountant Dermot too!

    Agreed. I enjoyed tonight's episode. The carry on in Niamh's kitchen was hilarious. Nicola is bitch. Like who fcuk goes into someones house and sees paper sticking out from a handbag and helps themselves for a read? Her snide remarks to poor Jane. Bless her. She was great dishing it back to her.

    CLARK! (Obey me now). I thought Nicolas partner did a runner on her or something not so long ago. Or left her at the alter or went on holidays without her. What's the story here? Is Clark a new fella?

    Poor Dermot. I hope Niamh succeeds in their plan to fleece Paul.

    Nicola has aged a lot since I last watched FC. Don't ask me how I got into it over the last two weeks but I was very disappointed we didn't see Niamh tell Paul.

    I think Nicola is with Clar a long time and are married. I think they have a daughter that Nicola said something about when they arrived. Could be wrong.

    I'll be keeping my handbag zipped and. close to me from now on.

    It actually wasn't a bad episode...however

    Taxis to the shelter....where is it? I always got the impression it was just down the road.

    Where were Jake and Ama? Surely being civic minded and recipients and providers would have been there.

    How do three turkeys feed three taxiloads who had to go back and forth...plus residents.

    Why didn't they get extras in the spar?

    Why didn't Judith ring?

    Btw I have hayley's dressing gown. M and s several years ago.

    Jane looked fine I have to say, Dermot's run of back luck never seems to end, there's a chance of him getting some action and he keels over.

    Don't think he's going to meet his maker yet though, there was something written on the compass that he had to tell Ben about so they will hardly kill him off just yet.
