    I could be wrong but I'm nearly certain Dearbhla mentioned ages back that she had spoken to Jane but hey what does that matter to get in the way of a great storyline..in other words it could be Jane regardless.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,372 ✭✭✭Deeec


    Yeah I think that Jane is meant to be in Paris so I doubt very much it will be Jane - But it could have been a good story

    She got onto a bus or into a taxi after hugging Anna.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,651 ✭✭✭political analyst


    Oisín was one of the men accused of the murder that Kerrie-Ann committed.

    Did Melanie really head off to Scotland or maybe Goo Eyes lost it when she told him to keep away from her/ not speak to her again. Also, Zoe was really fuming when she heard Melanie was behind the car theft but she seemed to get over it very quickly. Can't recall, did Zoe tell Hughie it was all set up by Melanie?

    Ah, just read the body is supposed to be buried there for three months - guess that rules Melanie out.



  • Registered Users Posts: 695 ✭✭✭Flowergirl201


    I just don't see how it can be anyone that we know. Surely if someone in carraigstown hadn't been heard of for 3 months there'd be a missing person search going on??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 88,244 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Where is Maxine gone?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,571 ✭✭✭con747


    The fact people can go into the shed for months leaves all doors open, Fidelma was last seen before going to Octoberfest and was back on last night, so they can pick anyone who is in the shed as the victim.

    Maybe Pete whacked somebody for a packet of Panadol!

    Is Jess (Aoife Bawle) doing the VO for the new EIR ad, I'm convinced it's her…

    I have to say I laughed my ass off when he punched the head off of Rafferty in the pub out of nowhere with his Clint Eastwood act. Imagine that fella telling you to say a few Hail Marys and Our Fathers



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Otis Hill


    I still think Jane could be a contender. It depends on if Derbhala actually mentioned that she spoke to her or if all the communication was via text or WhatsApp etc. If its the latter then Jane's killer could just have been messaging Derbhala from Jane's phone. Callum was last mentioned as travelling South America or something so if he's reached out to his mother since then, the killer could have easily fobbed him off with some texts now and again. It'd be very believable for Callum to think Jane was too absorbed with her new man to be bothered calling him.

    I keep going back to Jane as the victim purely because her exit was so abrupt and bizarre. Why wasn't she just packed off to live with Callum? They could have just said he was finished travelling and had settled in another country and she went over to him. Instead we heard from Derbhala that she went to Paris with an unseen man and then Derbhala mentioned Jane was staying permanently in his chateau in another part of France and everyone acted like that was normal considering it all happened in the space of about 7 weeks.

    If it is Jane it puts Tommy in the firing line as her ex and it might seem a little too convenient to the gardai that he was the one to discover the body. They might think its one of those cases where the killer knew the body was going to be discovered so they "discovered" it themselves to try and gain some control of the narrative. Even the fact that he mentioned Zak in his second interview to the gardai and not in the first might make the gardai think Tommy was trying to deflect suspicion and muddy the waters.

    There's an awful lot of mileage in this story if the victim is Jane (or someone well known to long term viewers) but I'd like to see her come back since she was one of the better characters.

    I'm probably being overly optimistic and giving the writers abilities too much credit with the above speculation 🤣.

    The only thing with Jane is she's older than 40. They've put the victim in the 20-40 bracket but then again they said approximately so maybe that's enough wiggle room for them. It'd be a real shame to have this massive Jane story happen off screen but nothing is impossible with these writers.

    I can't think of any character that it could be, maybe it'll just be a randomer. Or the original Jess, killed by the new one.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,571 ✭✭✭con747


    Jane left sometime last year so that should rule her out if the body is around 3 months in the ground.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,739 ✭✭✭✭Galwayguy35


    Mairead doesn't seem bothered at all that her ex husbands murder was never solved.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,067 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,571 ✭✭✭con747


    Is she not gone a lot longer than 3 months though? It must be 6-8 months when she left if not longer but I suppose this is make it up as you go along city.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,067 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    Maybe she was involved with Maxine and DI McCabe.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Otis Hill


    Had this been confirmed? At least some of her immediate family and close friends are still in the show, you'd think they'd have mentioned not hearing from her lately. If that's correct at least there should be good mileage in that story but not looking forward to the painfully constipated looks we all know a certain character will be making during their grieving scenes

    Going by this article it has.

    The brother is also returning.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,571 ✭✭✭con747


    If he is returning I wonder will there be another head transplant.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,571 ✭✭✭con747


    Makes the playschool writers look normal so, it says she was last seen 2 years ago but they reckon the body was only buried around 3 months ago. What's new with the idiots writing this.

    Don't expect anything from life, just be grateful to be alive.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,372 ✭✭✭Deeec


    It doesn't make sense at all. Typical fair city! Why the **** didn't they make it Jane. At least Jane hasn't been gone 2 years.

    Complete nonsense story again 😠😡. Obviously Damos going to get blamed and we'll have weeks of him being angry and having his mad red face on screen. The writers must have to give Damo his contractual time.

    Poor aul Laura all she ever done was walk around Carrigstown with a sports bag or yoga mat!



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,295 ✭✭✭threetrees


    That really makes no sense, it should be a person in a current storyline, and why bury her in carraigstown? She was never a target for murder and a random mistaken identity doesn't wash either as she was probably good at self defence.

    It'd be better to make it be an ex of Steo's or someone his prison inmate brother was involved with.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,571 ✭✭✭con747


    Jane, Maria, Maxine and a few others hiding in the shed would have been believable but Laura? It just keeps getting worse, I need to get my popcorn out to see how they join these dots.

    has Melanie been around since the body was discovered? Could it be her…



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Otis Hill


    It's been confirmed in spoilers who the body is and its not Melanie.

    The victim has been absent from the show since 2022 so presumably she set foot in Carrigstown off screen at some point and was murdered immediately before she could make contact with family and friends to tell them she was visiting. That's the only way it'll fit with the timeline of the death occurring within the last 3 months. Or else they'll have to go back to their original assessment of the death being sometime in the last 3 years but surely science can give a more exact window than what they've shown onscreen. I think maybe different writers aren't looking at each others notes from episode to episode

    Go on Cass!!!

    The staples of Soaps are unwanted pregancy, infidelity and serious crime.

    When a soap is hitting the skids in the ratings, they tend to introduce a gratuitous crime to try to perk things up. Just look at Corrie, its been lost in a wilderness of mediocrity for ages now.....accordingly the serious crime count has gone through the roof (they even had a serial killer FFS)

    Did anyone ever notice the ridiculous background noise the producers use when there is a scene in the living room or "front room" of the Fair City residents houses??

    Noticed this on one episode last week - the sound effects they use to mimic outside noise resembles a boy racers convention with the amount of cars revving up & loud exhaust noises!

    Keep a listen out for it during the next scene in any of the character's living rooms!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 965 ✭✭✭GAAcailin


    was Robin (mechanic) in it recently; or Ali (Carol DIL)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 998 ✭✭✭Photobox


    Yes I have noticed those sounds too when using headphones watching it on the player. Not when watching on TV, my hearing not the best though!

    The murder victim could be a lot of people …. it could be Jane …. Charlotte …. Maria accountant …. that drug dealer girl in the set up house can't think of name …. it almost def will be someone associated with Zak in some way to point the finger towards Zak as the killer …..

    Zak will not be the killer …. so that leaves room for speculation on who it will be …. Goo Eyes and Fergal are obvious contenders …. but I get the feeling it will be none of these 'hard men' types …. Goo Eyes is tougher in image than he is and Fergal a very interesting character is more of a mess than a murderer …. we also have Steo Nash and his mates …. Steo himself seems decent enough for now but a bit of a waster when he is not at work …. but there is huge potential to add in plenty nasty new characters via his mates …. many of who he met in prison …. Beau and James Rafferty are other remote possibilities …. we do not know much about Beau but it is hardly James …. like Zak James is a lot of devious things but he does not come across as a killer ….

    I guess it could be one of Goo Eyes or Fergal's associates …. or some gangster or serial killer even someone not introduced …. Still and all my money is on Georgie ….. like Kerri Ann he seems a harmless clown …. but why the interest in this case and the actions of the guilty party like sending flowers to the site and trying to get info out of the young Garda ?? … Georgie has a Ciaran-like presence here …. and there are very strong vibes he is either guilty or knows exactly what happened …..Georgie will be the key to this I feel whether he did it himself or witnessed who did it …. or heard about who did it in his job ….



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 936 ✭✭✭lumphammer2


    Zak will be blamed …. then it will turn to Fergal …. then perhaps to Goo Eyes …. but none of them will be the guilty party …. meanwhile Georgie will be everywhere offering sympathies and interfering with the investigation …. because he will be the guilty one …. same as Ciaran the time ….



  • Registered Users Posts: 573 ✭✭✭Niall_76


    Nevermind the spoilers the victim has been named here 🙄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 88,244 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Georgie's behaviour is suspicious but why would he not have killed Gwen and framed Zak, that would be a good storyline I think

    The storylines seem to have no endings

    How is Tommy managing to pay rent alone on Barry's house to Hughie, why has Dearbhla not moved in with him?

    I thought Zak was on the run, wanted over Carol's kidnapping and the diamond



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 998 ✭✭✭Photobox


    It's quite obvious now a certain person is the perpetrator, or maybe I got the idea from here 🤔



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Otis Hill


    Yeah he was acting guilty as sin in the latest episode. He almost seems too obvious now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Otis Hill


    I was thinking the same thing. Thought he was wanted for theft and suspected kidnapping. But Fidelma was acting like he wasn't a wanted criminal.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭Otis Hill


    So does Zak timestamp his nudes on the off-chance he'll need them as an alibi one day? 🤣

    Had to laugh at Orla and Kira discussing the secret affair.....in the community centre which was the most crowded its ever been. When the plot requires it, every conversation in there is audible from the front door so it's only a matter of time before someone will overhear if they keep chatting about it there. Lucky for them Leo's crooning probably drowned out their conversation



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 88,244 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Are we to believe Kira is in love with Victor now, cannot give him up

    Georgie a killer, his behaviour is just weird now
