It can depend really, I watch Neighbours and I am sick of seeing the same people as they have a small cast. Most soaps suffer the same fate as Fair City. In Eastenders for instance, Bianca, Zainab, Whitney haven't featured so much lately. In a soap, you usually get a major big story and they run with it. Louie, Connie, Yvonne, Bela, Suzanne have all featured for quite a long time and they probably could do with the break. Its the nature of a soap, you can't be guaranteed to feature all the time. People would get bored of you. [though this somehow does not appear to affect the gruesome twosome (paul & niamh) aargh]
Also on Eastenders, they now have a rule of how many characters can have a speaking part per episode, I never want Fair City to get that bad
I also presume as the FC actors/actresses do not earn as much as their UK counterparts, they will also have other projects e.g. theatre work for instance to balance with.
Emmerdale and Coronation Street seem to have a nice blend of characters in and out. Naturally some will be in alot for certain story lines, like Kevin and Molly for their affair, and i am sure that Sally will join them shortly when she tells then she has cancer.0 -

"You've done such harm", very insightful Renee.
And Heather "You told me you done it for me!" Seriously, how big is her ego? I've gone from loving characters to hating them to loving them again and it's unusual for a soap to make a character so unlikable. It's usually just before they make an undignified exit of some sort and the only one that springs to mind is Mike whose untimely demise brought the arrival of the lucious Louis. Is Heather leaving FC in the near future perhaps? 0 -

there are advantages to losing a character, just look at poor Mike who is propping up the cast in Ros na Run:D Heather is making herself so hated, its unreal, only in it for the money and not caring what happens to Brendan, sure she already thinks he is going to prison :mad:I think Heather, Brendan & Eleanor are leaving ... on the run me thinks0 -
Really?? So if it follows traditional soaps standards(Home and Away springs to mind),there are advantages to losing a character, just look at poor Mike who is propping up the cast in Ros na Run:D Heather is making herself so hated, its unreal, only in it for the money and not caring what happens to Brendan, sure she already thinks he is going to prison :mad:I think Heather, Brendan & Eleanor are leaving ... on the run me thinksthe Daly family are gone for the forseeable future ie the next 4 years?That's a huge pity. As I've mentioned before I think Brendan is a splendid supporting character. I do think Heather did a fantastic job in the weeks up to Floyd's death but her character is imo only, a bit redundant. The scenes with herself and Jo, especially around St. Patricks Day were gas but there really isn't a place there for her anymore. Although absence does make the heart grow fonder so who knows? I will be glad though when Brendan resurfaces. I think he'll look terrific without the snazzy suits and bit of stubble. 0 -

At least once a week now I miss the most vital part of the programme because the SKy Box recorder runs out. What brain-damaged chimp is pressing play in there? How can they get it so wrong so regularly?
RTE bosses, here's a suggestion. Fire someone crap. Hire someone good. Simple, no?
RTE player for you then maybe do what I do record the 10 mins before and the 10 mins afterwards.. BBC are much worse at that then RTE in all fairness.. 0 -
She said that :eek:. What happened in the trial tonight; i missed it over the rain :mad:
Heather had to take the stand and she basically made out that Brendan killed Floyd and used those words, there was a big confrontation with Brendan at home and to be honest I can't blame him, she really made things so bad for him Bob told her a few home truths and he was trying to get money out of Sarah for an interview and Heather is re-releasing her book for cash 0 -
