Fair City [News, Spoilers and Discussion v10] Read Post #1 Before Contributing

Wasn't that barrister going out with Anto for a while when he separated from Sharon. We're they both recovered addicts?

Court room looks decent enough actually. I take it all back 😳

They went mad on the non speaking extras too.

Incidentally why is Victor giving evidence via video link? Is he in fear of Hayley and the Collins'?

His mother had a massive heart attack! Take it he's in London!

she looks like only the heat of her shite is keeping her vertical!

Speaking of conflicts of interest, not only is the barrister Anto's ex, two of the jurors also have links to Carrigstown. The two speaking jurors, I'm sure the woman is Paul's accountant and the man was involved in a storyline with Jackie years ago. I only vaguely remember it, he's a trans man and Jackie knew him from before he transitioned or something along those lines.

Small world in that juror pool!

I presume Nicola and Paul will be getting it on again sometime soon. Hopefully it'll lead to a return from Oisín. I actually liked Nicola's understated return and she gives Paul's character a bit of a new lease on life away from pizza wars and knock off booze.

I'm going to guess Melanie will be pregnant following her one night stand with Mondo.

I actually really like Nikki as a character of late. She actually seems a better fit than Sash behind the bar in terms of interacting with characters.

I can't see where this Ben storyline is going but I doubt its incest as Ellie knew who he was right away. That scene in Lidl was weird, where she basically said OMG you're my brother how random. I didn't know they knew each other let alone that they would recognise each other. If they hadn't recognised each other then an incest plot would probably have been the route it would go. I can't see the point of Ben unless he's just a Lorcan type replacement. As usual Zoe is a right misery guts towards anyone who crosses the threshold of that house. In the eyes of the law Ben is Dermot's son and probably the heir to his assets including the house if anything were to happen to Dermot. So if anything she should be trying to keep on his good side. She's been living rent free in a 4/5 bed house in Dublin for the last 4 years and a massive chunk of that time was spent there on her own. Does she realise how much money Dermot is losing on rent at her expense. Easily €3,000 per month if not more. Its bonkers that nobody moved in after Dearbhla. So Ben should be more than entitled to a room there. Pity they couldnt have had Dermot and Jo actually appear for a cameo on that Zoom call with Zoe.

well… when you put it like that😛….its a **** show and so many conflicts of interest it beggars belief

poster above mentions Melanie becoming pregnant- what age is she supposed to be? Am assuming Alex is 22/23.
for so many characters we are never given a clue what age they are supposed to be 🤷

Couldn't get over how bad Nicola looked.

Orla is really only in it to roll her eyes and interfere - surprised people don't tell her to mind her own business.

I always said that Claudia Carroll (Nicola) needs volume or body in her hair. It's so limp and nothing. Nice to see her back as Nicola though, she was always a bit sneaky so let's see what's in store.

I think she looks well enough considering she must be coming up to 60 🤷‍♂️. Paul must be near that too. He's been in the show since day 1 and Nicola first arrived circa 1993 or 1994 i think so both have been knocking around 30+ years and they weren't teenagers back then either so definitely close to 60 now.

Im glad to see her back. She is a good actress. She was great last night at Deans food truck

As regards her apearaance she is far too thin and that is aging her. As we age our skin needs to be a little bit plumper.

When she was walking with Paul last night her legs were like twigs. She was always thin, but she is now unhealthally thin.

I think it’s time to stop commenting on a woman’s looks. She is just doing a job, let’s not lower ourselves with such immature behaviour.

Hayley and Holly having a conversation about the blackmail and lying under oath the minute Holly stepped down the witness box was laughable. As if you would have such a conversation there in case you were overheard 😄 delighted to see Nicola back, one of the more enjoyable characters for me. Way more entertaining than boring Emma (when comparing 'posh' characters)
