    T.J. was the Sing Street also as the head the ball roadie of the band.. Was very good in it.

    It just goes to show you how awful the writers are, they can't be consistent.... They need to cut down on the number of writers they have and just keep it to one or two.... It's crazy having so many of them! .. They might be able to keep their artwork.

    Nice to see some humour too : the camp wedding planner talking to Doug as if he was a gay man....we need more comic interludes like this

    There was a camp wedding planner like that in Mrs Browns boys. Funnily enough for the Rory character who is now playing Bosco.

    Yeah... I was being a tad sarcastic. We’ve learnt he’s a pathological liar, so forgive me if I take this story of his with a pinch of salt. I really don’t like this whole “gay” thing...like, they couldn’t have been a bit more realistic and had him identify as bisexual? I mean, in my experience, repressed homosexuality isn’t as common as repressed bisexuality, especially not in his age range anyway. Def looking too deeply into it but that’s my two cents.

    Did I miss something about how your man ended up in Kat's attic?:confused:

    It's hard to get Mrs Brown's Boys out of your mind when Rory Cowan appears. Ridiculous casting and useless actor.

    Agreed, I was really hoping his appearance was a one off. I can't bear watching him

    You forget, he is also an RTE lovie and lifer, JD will always have him on regarding LGBT issues
    I cant stand the way he is so catty and dismissive regarding MBB's yet he has the name of the poxy show on his ****e book he is hawking at the moment


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,495 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Do Cass and Rose not talk anymore same with Katy and Laura


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 840 ✭✭✭The Late Late Show


    Enjoying this at the moment. Ciaran and Will great characters. Agree though about Rory Cowan. He is EXACTLY the same as on Mrs Brown's Boys.

    Same. How did Ciarawwwn get into the attic?
    Thought I'd missed an episode too.
    I don't like Rory Cowan and bad an all as FC is he just doesn't add anything to it.

    He would be nothing if it wasn't for Mrs brown's boys.

    Rory Cowan is a joke of a person, a ludicrous buffoon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,809 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    Maybe his feud with Twink will appear on screen!

    I sent a very trolling tweet to him and Fair City,
    Ill give it 15 mins before it deleted


  • Registered Users Posts: 798 ✭✭✭dixiedan


    I know it was mentioned before, but it really is comical(and not in the funny sense) how Mairead is meeting her ex Wills all the time and going for drinks, inviting for dinner etc. When Damo questions anything, she practically lashes out at him.


    Ciaran hiding in attic ...wtf??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,305 ✭✭✭✭branie2


    How did Ciaran get in the attic? :confused:

    I get the impression he fell out in some way with the MBB people. His departure was abrupt and he said something recently about not keeping in touch with them.

    He's actually a very nice person. Started out as a booking agent and in fact, gave BOC one of his earliest gigs.

    He was on tour in Australia when his mother took seriously ill and was told he couldn't travel home - if she had died, he could have a week off.....

    He's not a great actor by any stretch of the imagination but had not been happy with the constant traveling for a long time.

    Tommy Dillon is living down the other end of that attic :P

    First time watching an episode of Fair City in years -

    Characters seem obsessed with "going for walks."

    "We're being vigilant" - Why don't you check your fcking attic?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,920 ✭✭✭Cash_Q


    If the hatch to the attic is in Katy's bedroom, how did Kieron get down once Katie and Rose had fallen asleep? A big jump? No Stira in sight!

    Not that the writers give any time to logic or facts, but he suddenly appeared in the room having been spying from above in the previous scene, wtf?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,809 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    Why has Bosco moved to Dublin?
    Is it to look after Rose or is it to to get a job in Spar and pay Dublin rent rates?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,495 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Rory Bosco looks very pale


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,208 ✭✭✭Shakyfan


    Just struck me that Katie has quite a bit in common with Bosco having spent a year living in a box...

    Are Eoin and Katie deaf or is there another reason why only Rose hears Ciarán in the attic??

    Bosco and Cristiano would make a lovely couple.

    There was a quick glimpse of a ladder, but why would they leave that down in the bedroom all the time?

    There was a Stira. You must have missed it. They make loads of noise and need to be let down from below. (Although I've never tried to let mine down while being locked in the attic!) I can't see how he could go up the Stairs and pull it up after him either.

    Spoiler for 3 weeks time. You leaked it now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,108 ✭✭✭CollyFlower


    Jesus, it looks like Bosco is going to be a FC regular, what with him getting a job in the Spar, I can't stand him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,154 ✭✭✭✭Strazdas


    Spoiler for 3 weeks time. You leaked it now.

    Will is going to be furious when he finds out :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 828 ✭✭✭tototoe


    The Ciaran in the attic thing is nonsense tbf. Noone hears him moving around...not even slightly believable.

    And as for Christiano, he's going out with will about 6 months, disappeared for 6 weeks, and didn't give a continental about Will, but he's now stuck in a physically abusive relationship with him?. Surely in real life, he'd have just left. No kids involved, not married, barely together a few months.

    I know domestic abuse takes many forms, and people react differently and stay for differing reasons, but this is a little hard to believe imo.

    And as for the addition of Mr brown's boys, he can't act for nuts....seriously. such a poor addition to the cast.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,861 ✭✭✭Nokia6230i

    Not even a hint of a CV for such jobs on FC; "Hi, I'm XY, I'm looking for a job, is there anything going?" seems to be sufficient and no questions're asked about experience, qualifications etc.

    Not to mention the newbie's let go back into office to check roster before he's even officially started.

    Sometimes FC & logic're like North & South Poles they're that far apart.

    Because Will is manipulating. Chris is probably like how can I leave him , he gave up his family to be with me, also they are living together so not as clear cut as them just dating each other for a few months but obviously Chris should leave.

    To be fair, it’s a job in Spar. He’s not going after a Hayley-type PR job.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,912 ✭✭✭glenfieldman


    Why has Bosco moved to Dublin?
    Is it to look after Rose or is it to to get a job in Spar and pay Dublin rent rates?

    No its because his **** roll of a book has panned and Joe Duffy and Dee gave him a job


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,809 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    Quick question is Bosco gay? or are we all just assuming it?

    Don’t feel bad about missing the stairs/stira.. Eoghan didn’t notice it either when checking on the girls.

    He’s also a fair bit bigger than Will and apparently a super sporty guy now so wouldn’t expect him to allow Will to do him damage.

    I don’t think it’s similar to the Damian-Suzanne situation as it doesn’t involve the history of family violence or the issue of striking women that Damian faced.

    This whole Chris/Will story is terribly acted and represented. I really don't know where all the salivating and gushing are coming from, then again people actually think Carol is a good actress so standards aren't very high. The character of Chris is just so pathetic and clingy, he only has one default expression, a cheeky grin and he uses it in almost every scene.
    The guy who plays Will isn't an awful actor but this whole story came from literally nowhere and is clearly a box-ticking exercise from the 100 script writers to say they tackled same sex domestic abuse. Plus there are so many inconsistencies. Damien and Chris are all of a sudden BFF? Since when did they ever bother with each other? Plus in the space of one episode, Damien copped what was going on, not to mention that there has been practically no build up to Will being violent. I think he acted strange for 3 episodes and then starting laying into him. A joke and an insult for real sufferers.
    But no doubt people will be screaming that they deserve an award :confused::rolleyes:
