    Not with yours son.
    Thin hair and thick ankles is never good combination :D

    Seriously I actually passed her in the street a while ago (she was with her husband - how does he put up with her?) and she was actually quite striking, but not to the extent that she thinks she is. The problem is she projects herself as a supermodel when really she is just a pretty girl who does a lot for herself. If she was a little more humble with a nice presonality, she would be so much more attractive.

    Fair city is pure muck. Every single scene is exactly the same. One person is in the room some walks in and reems of a few lines then walks out. There's no acting involved atall! The actors are nearly always standing doing nothing, it's painful to watch I just can't sit through 10 seconds of it unless I'm awful stoned.

    Derek Mooney is a laugh though he's always making sly digs at people and down right insulting them when ever he can get away with it.

    Hector is class at least he's a bit of craic but for a man who's traveled so much you'd think he'd stop talking to foriegners like their retarded or something and putting on a fake accent of whatever country he's in.

    Hector got a taxi off my brother a few weeks ago from Tramore to Dunmore after the races.

    He never left a tip.......

    Thats some fine research you've done there HelterSkelter. Lets put an end to this once and for all.
    You bring the balaclavas and the pliers, I'll bring the calving jack and the blow-torch :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,585 ✭✭✭HelterSkelter


    Sounds like a good plan!! Can we get the stupid cow that does the EBS ads while we're at it, she talks to us like we're in nursery school.

    This is a very entertaining thread... I recently moved home to the folks' gaf (saving to buy etc blah) and they are avid Fair City (or Fairly ****ty as I like to call it) watchers, altho they are fond of saying 'it was just on, I don't follow it'.
    Its HORRIFIC but its like morbid fascination carcrash type viewing, I'll confess to watching a scene or ten for the ham acting.
    Anyway my contribution is that I think Jimmy looks like Garry Kelly and have taken to calling both Garry Kelly and/or Ian Harte 'Jimmy' at football matches (not as regular an occurence recently).
    But that Don Whichjobhashegotnow-erly takes the fecking biscuit.... what an irritating voice for a voice over person?????!!!!
    However the prize goes to.... BRIAN KENNEDY... ONE TO REMEMBER???????? Has anyone seen even two seconds of this????? Say no more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81 ✭✭Sp@rtacus


    Not sure I'm familiar with said stupid cow, but I'll trust your judgement. We may as well sort out Ger Canning "Using the baase of his hurl to ffend of his marker.." and Pat Kenny while we're at it. No sense wasting the blowtorch.

    The worst actress in RTÉ is a woman called Áine Lawlor.

    She has to present a program called morning ireland every now and then on Radio One where she is supposed to act like a serious journalist.

    All she does is rant and not let people answer questions while she rants on and on, eventually they have to finish up and nobody is any the wiser .

    I absolutely cannot stand listening to her and prefer the white noise from an unused portion of the FM band that I have preset to in case she comes on.

    If she is still affecting the schedule by christmas I wil move to Radio Ireland so I will !

    Yeah Brian Kennedy reminds me of Eoin Mc Love out of Fr. Ted fame! I cringe when his show comes on, I have to watch it, It's toecurling-hair-on-your neck raising CRINGY!!!

    Hope this thread can go here, if it should be elsewhere please feel free to move...

    I'm watching Fair City here and I don't know if anyone knows the Russian actresses on it "Lana". Is it just me or is she an absolute HEADWRECKER??? She was on The Late Late Show and Ryan Confidential recently enough and out of character was even more of a headwrecker in real life from what I could see.

    Agreed.

    She is the ultimate c*nthole bitch
    , one of the most annoying, obnoxious and generally overrated people ever.

    From seeing her on a number of talk shows and in real life I can say without reservation that she is living proof of the maxim:

    'That people who play hateful characters on television may be equally hateful in real life'
