Fair City [News, Spoilers and Discussion v7] Read Post #1 Before Contributing

Ok so Ellie is being taken to school and walks apparently straight in and out to mitch. So they all immediately repair to the Hungry Pig...so it csn be 9.30am at the most..yet she is offered a burger...

Great to see that the FC 'writers' are still on top of their game.

For instance, in Tuesday 's episode, we saw Pete sitting at the table in Ama's house, with a carpenter's pencil, rulers, tri - square, and a sheet of blotting paper, draughting an architectural proposal for the three -dimensional measurements, in centimetres, of the height, width, and depth of the bookcase he intends to erect in Jake's bedroom.
For fook's sake, Pete, you're putting up a few shelves to hold a book or two. You haven't got the contract to construct the fookin' New Maternity Hospital.
.....................

And Nicola, bless her, certainly speaks her mind...
To Robbie : "Hey, you need to do something about the disgusting vermin in here," while glaring pointedly at Jane.
And of course, Jane, highly offended by such an abusive insult, puffs out her impressive chest, and lets fly with a surprisingly uncensored, four-letter word.
And what exactly was the nature of this obnoxious obscenity?
In front of hundreds of thousands of innocent viewers (and eight children) she had the sheer audacity to yell at Nicola, "Hey, you! Rack off"!
And remember, this was before the nine o'clock watershed.
Ah for fooks sake, there's no call for that kinda fookin' language.
What's this bloody country coming to, at all at all?
........................

And the female detective decides that the person who can best help with trying to get inside the head of a psychotic abductor like L/H, is the little toddler, Ellie.
What's her reasoning behind that, you may ask?
"Yes, KT, I know you spent a full year in his company, just the two of you and a tiny box, but sure you couldn't possibly have come to know Ciaran like Eleanor did. After all, he walked her to school not just once, but twice. It's normal Garda procedure to first question the niece of a criminal's former girlfriend. I've read a lot of Sherlock Holmes novels.
See, that's why I get paid the big bucks "
.............

And li'l Ellie (or Eleanor, as Det - Inspector Columbo calls her) within the space of half an episode, turns from being a snivelling 12-year old toddler to a full - blown, cranky teenager, with all her, "I hate you, Mammy! I hate you! I wish I had poisoned you properly now!"
But sure which of us hasn't screamed such things at our psychologically - injured, brain - damaged mother? Go on, go on, admit it.
The young people of today, eh? No decorum........

When Hughie's horrible son Kevin went up to the bar in McCoy's he forgot for a minute that he's a roboYank and sounded Scottish for a full sentence! What an awful episode that was, another contender for worst of the year.

Someone ring the caps!
