Fair point. They should have scattered her ashes or something. If Paul dies, we will presumably have a whole week given over to the funeral, with home movies of himself as a lad, and a big ice-sculpture of his finest moments melting slowly in the winter sunshine.

He's a great actor, though. You have to admit that much, even if you find the character boring.

I agree with you on Mondo. He was an awful eejit.

I just feel strongly about it, they treated her death so shabbily. They built it up for so long, had the fire and then thats it. gone.

I think Paul is a good actor but I just feel that Annette (Rebecca) was treated badly in the end. They just cut her completely off and did it all off screen. I wanted to see how Seamus & Barry acted at the funeral.

A "ronnie" is a moustache

Sorry 'ronnie' is a Dublin expression- Should have called a spade a spade or a moustache a moustache !

It was like they thought, we have killed her & bill off. story over. :mad::mad::mad:

You're right. Annette was a liked character and I agree too that if it had been :rolleyes: Paul Brennan or somebody else the show thinks we really like, we would have had a screen funeral, at least.
Barry and Seamus grieved for her but they agreed to not drag her name down any more by bringing up what really happened, i.e. that Bill was really responsible, and fair enough, in a way, that part of the story worked, as Bill died too and didn't get away with it. But because Bill died (and we never heard who claimed him or where was he buried or was he taken back to America or ) and his storyline was tied up, I suppose they tied up the ends of Annette's story too by Barry and Seamus being the only people who really knew her.
And let's face it, if Annette had had a screen funeral, Niamh would only have showed up slapping people in the face or throwing their drink over them...;):D

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Annette wasn't on the show for 14 years was she? If she was I only remember her from the last few years - don't remember her being around in the days of Harry Molloy...

I thought they would have Fr Art doing the christening of baby Jane instead of someone different :eek: better set Fair city recording today. Have to watch X Factor instead on Sundays!!

Is Jane getting christened now; did Dolores change her mind then, she was dead set against it.

First it was Curly wanting a role in Fair City, now Fiz from Corrie wants a guest appearance in Fair City!! You can also watch her appearance in the cafe in the below link.

Fiz Brown Stape..why would we want her?

Moany annoying bitch and wife of jailbird....we've got Heather for that role.

Cris Jones

Farrah Phelan didn't come to the trial then..but then she didn't come when Floyd was sick or when he died, either! All soap operas do this - leaving out characters who played a part before but who are missing when a big event happens.
Still, it is a good story. Good episode. Bob is the star of the show at the minute.

So many people played the role of Farrah they didnt know which one to ask back. She didnt come back for Eunices funeral either.

I know they are partners now but was still surprised to see Carol sitting with Christy in the courtroom. I thought she would have stayed away seen as it was she who reported Brendan to Deegan in the first place.

Carol isn't shy. And Floyd has been played by at least two different actors before.

Wayne Molloy is coming back. I hope it's the good one. When he came back once for a couple of weeks he was six inches taller and looked (and acted) like a model.

I'm enjoying the trial so far. It's quite strange that the barristers are married. Who cares?

I agree with Cris that Bob is the star at the moment. It gets a little lift every time he's on screen. Christy is also doing well, I think - and baby Eleanor played a blinder last night. Eyes half-closed, voice low and faded. She's the best actor in that family anyway.

angel01

What a far fetched trial :eek: with brendan and renee trying to go for him, that was ridiculous.. the room looked nothing like a courtroom I thought and Heather... aargh I want to slap her over and over..:mad:

Nice to see Deegan back though...eh Alice just thought it was all so far fetched.. well played Bob again though

Just wondering about the Photographers outside the court house at the start of the trial. Surely they would have more professional camara's. The ones they were using were a bit like what anyone would use for their own personal use.

None of it was realistic for me. Sarah with the notepad or whatever she had pretending to write down stuff. So far fetched

They should recall Turlough for his statement, that would make me laugh!

I think we should see a lot more of them together. There is great potential for rivalry, and they are probably the two most entertainingly devious people in Carrigstown.
