    Character's not underage; think she's in college and "working" at being an influencer.....

    But that was my first inkling; babysit for Pauls kid/s & the cliched affair/relationship occurs; hackneyed so hoping it doesn't happen!

    Is this episode out of sync?


    What the fùck marriage over.


    Waynes blown all the money?


    What?

    I assume the actor is in the US because he spends a chunk of the year there usually so they're trying to work around that but wow what a character assassination. They should have just said he was home and he could spend months being off screen - upstairs, in the garage etc. Sure the characters go missing for months on end anyway.

    But now we can have more of orla wailing and shouting wearing her scratchy jumpers. Do ya remember years ago she was a real party girl. Oh how times have changed.

    Has there been any sightings of Laura since filming resumed? Or is she upstairs all the time too?

    That relevation from Orla was really out of the blue.. but she'll be grand, she'll be moved into the house that Doug and Erica moved out of.

    The McAleer days around 2005. She had him, in his 50s and a young lad on the go. She was about 25.

    Orla was a wild thing back then, the William guy who she had the affair with has aged a good bit.

    Where to start......

    Brand Juliette O'Connell.....?

    As it happens the actress behind the character was in "the papers" recently about doing a mental health (wellness & mental health're all the one to me!) blog so the truth stranger than fiction might apply to that scenario.

    Dolores interogating the young lad; mentioning "Bertha" to Orla at one stage; all that line was short of was adding "Big" before Bertha!

    So dipping into the life savings, cleaning it out actually & then mining down even further to get €200 Grand into debt.....

    You'd've thought now, when booking flights to "Germany" that she'd've twigged something; FC SWs could've surely worked that into storyline before she left; "I have to go to sort this out" etc.; indeed it could've been tagged on to the Darragh storyline?

    As an aside she did a video in May 2020 in which she said that normally FC films 6 weeks in advance; that standard enough practice in soap opera world?

    She's Kildare too; so that accent she puts on is seriously acted; over-acted even but at least it's been toned down last few episodes & I'm glad FC're going an "Influencer" storyline including about that absolute charlatans that most of these f*****s are with their juice diets & magic pills to s***e yourself thin.

    Hopefully they do this storyline right & expose the quackery & fakery.

    Alexs character; getting boring; they need to give him something else; he's no longer Brand Brewzers it seems; just study, study, study.

    Orla & Dolores going into the Pig & telling Bob they'll have 2 Coffees but later/not right now? To f**k with that; you'll buy if you're gonna sit down, this ain't a public park.

    Wonder does MacLean Burke work out? Bulked up a bit for sure; suits him despite what's been said about his shape & "fat" head on here; he's well proportioned to be fair.

    Also ye know in the Station where the 3 were sitting? That's literally the outer limit of that room on set.....

    Interesting seeing inside of the Halpin house again; it's been a while.

    Bosco with his 1 Line in the shop about Renee bringing the Valentines Day cardboard (from card stands, promotional stuff I presume); absolutely stealing a living he is!

    Like when you look at it, Juliete, Alex & Phoebe & to a lesser extent Ellie & Junior & Olivia; the rest of them, Bosco & Rose apart, have been on it for quite a bit relatively speaking; Bosco the actors pension etc.'s sorted; it's important to bring in new characters to develop new talent; the actors will move on in most cases but the long-termers've done very well out of it; it's put a few through college & paid mortgates etc. I'd imagine.

    The debt storyline will be interesting; Dolores saying she'll help Orla out (Orlas Ma/Da; did they ever feature or was she only introduced as Niamhs cousin?) but to tune of €200k? Not so sure about that; the auld inheritance be running out now with the house purchase.....or was that purely Petes money?
    But defo they're getting that gaffe & probably paying rent too.


    Think I've covered everything from tonights show so til Wednesday...........

    And what about the garage? It didn't get a mention in all of this.

    What a crazy out of the blue storyline!

    And how is Orla liable for his loan if she didn't sign her name to it. It doesn't make any sense... and I know I shouldn't expect it to.

    An article here about Tony Tormey's back issues. Wasn't much in it worth reading but there's a potential spoiler about who his next love interest might be. Not sure if it's based on fact or just a tabloid taking a shot in the dark. Spoiler alert, they're saying it's
    Orla

    Just randomly turned this on and oh my god, HOW is it still on the air?! It’s painful to watch, although it provides brilliant entertainment to take the piss out of it. This whole storyline with Mondo’s daughter (Juliette, I think?) being an influencer (SO cringe inducing). AND That random scene of Famien and that woman. The acting, the dialogue. I’ve no words! What are the writers on??

    It's actually after improving 500% on the last 4/5 years in the last month or so!! Believe it or not that was a good episode of Fair City. That's how bad it went.
