    For sure ….. terrible taste …. Will was the pits ….. pure evil …. Damien is damaged goods …. his criminal father and all that …. but Dean is just a clown ….. Dean's deserved 'girl' is clearly VanGirl aka Fergal !! …. anyone fooled by that deserves that !!

    The truth doesn't lie.


    Is RTE player acting up? Trying to catch up but it won't work. Is Jim McDonald in the box with Liz joining.

    Not for me for some reason, it just keeps winding the red semi circle. No issue with my internet because everything else is working fine.

    Is that Ruby actually gone for good now as well? That was another exit that came from nowhere. Ruby the character could be annoying, but I thought the actress who played her had real screen presence and was a good actor. If she is gone, hopefully she’s gone on to something bigger.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,332 ✭✭✭Archduke Franz Ferdinand


    you were looking at a different actor than me, l thought she was a very poor actor

    Its really hard to know if the Ruby actress was really good and the character was just terribly written .... or if the acting AND the writing were equally bad.... regardless she was hard to watch and honestly I hope she is gone for good.

    Have they written Greg and Jess out too? All supposedly in London.

    Didn't think she was the worst but it's a very low bar in all fairness!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,116 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    I'm really dreading Detective Inspector preaching around the place.

    She'll be insufferable.

    I've watched Blue Lights loved the police in it, epispdes of Heartbeat also had great characters in it. Even PC Swirling in Emmerdale.

    They should have picked somebody better to join up.

    WTF is this solicitor story line about, she's supposedly very well off but needs 2 bunk in with her clients and then becomes a control freak. Any normal person would have shown her the door after 5 minutes. At least Erica and no no got a mention but where's the car.

    Think it's an attempt at humour.

    You never know she might end up beding Doug.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 153 ✭✭Time for changes

    He'd not be that stupid even though Doug is nearly a Dougal, the writers don't know humour or anything resembling a story line.

    Right so when Gwen came into the show she was supposed to have been in a childrens home with Anna ( who was scottish while Gwen is from the north but we'll leave that issue aside for now 😲). So now we find out Gwen was raised by her grandfather - Im confused. Its another character background that has been forgotten about. So she believed her mother was dead and now shes come back into her life within days and will no doubt end up staying in Carrigstown - ummm. Im not sure why she cant go through that small box of her fathers belongings - she could go through it in minutes.

    The pizza storyline is a complete borefest.

    Why does Claire the big shot solicitor have to houseshare - Why does she have nowhere to live? I must have missed this show where this was explained.

    Ellie - Alex is a greasy, messy haired short ass. He has a crap job, no house and no car. Why would you be interested in him? Not sure why Alex and Ellie are still in the show as they offer nothing. Both crap uninteresting charactors and actors. I still think Ellie is about 12 when she comes on screen - She could easily play a child.

    So Mairead and Dean are no more. Surely both actors have to leave now - I cant see any other plots for them. I dont want to see Dean with yet another woman. I hope he gets in his van and leaves for good.

    He sold his van didn't he to move in with Mairead? Anyway, I thought they were going to have Gwens dad as Jim Mcdonald from corrie since Liz is joining as Gwens mam and Jim is supposedly being killed off on corrie. The drugs don't work… Ellie, a nobody character. Alex, a do not do this to your head character. By god I could keep going. 😭

    This story of housework rotas has been done before more than once

    Also I think she will jump Doug

    I highly doubt she would go that low or he would higher his standards! But in Fair City land anything is possible!

    Renee’s teeth look different.
    the Claire storyline is daft, why would a successful solicitor need to house share..

    No sign of the young doctor these days.

    I like Claire the solicitor, I think she can be quite funny but it's a silly story that she is house sharing with Doug and Compo Pete.

    Granny Renee is trying to set up Ellie and Jesus, I'd be mortified if I was Ellie.

    We know Liz McDonald is arriving soon so Gwen has to have a story, although I think she will clash with all the women, Carol, Dolores, Sharon, Ger, Sash, she's going to have to have an impact.

    Maybe getting the ram to stray as well, be no harm moving on from Worzel Gummidge.

    Gwen was raised by her grandfather until she was 8 and then he died. She was shipped off to Glasgow after that and ended up in a care home there with Anna so at least that bit was explained but weird that Gwen's mother would think that Gwen's Belfast based broke ass dad would be forking out for a Dublin based solicitor.

    The pizza plot is bizzare and Orla should be checked for bipolar disorder. She was sabotaging Paul 2 weeks ago, judging him for using an influencer to lie about Vinos last week and now this week she's running to him with tales about Zoe maybe sabotaging his business by handing out leaflets that Paul and Orla both said were useless anyway 🙄.

    Claire the hotshot lawyer slumming it with Doug and Pete is ridiculous. She's supposed to be very successful so you'd think she'd already own at least one property by now or at least afford swanky short term let's.

    I thought Ellie had moved back to Brazil. Definitely not worth bringing her back to give Alex someone to do. Maybe Alex will become a wildly successful EDM artist next week and move to London and Ellie will go with him to for college to study the paediatrics course she keeps threatening to do. And she can chase Greg again while she's there.

    Are they going to bother with an exit episode for Mairead or was the last episode where she said she was off to Cashel the last we heard of her? Both Dean and Leo are pointless at this stage. They should be axed and a new family can take their house.

    Delivering pizzas to a school during the mid-term break - not the best idea!
