I just watched it again. Funniest scene for a long time.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Last nights episode was quite funny in general;

-Dean bursting through the door.
-Bob as Santa.
-Awkward silence between Bob and Tracey, while Carol was off talking to Christy.
-Wayne dropping hints at Malachy.
-Malachy giving Wayne the alarm clock.

Pure comedy all around.

BEST ACTOR
Robert

BEST ACTRESS
Tracey - Hard to remember a scene where she didnt shine. Brilliant throughout.

BEST NEWCOMER
Robert. Love his relationship with Cleo; brought some light relief to an otherwise forgettable family.

BIGGEST LOSS
Troy. Would have loved to seen his relationship with Leo developed further.

BEST SERIOUS STORY
Ray and Niamh and all concerned in the aftermath of Ginas death. Powerful and moving scenes from all concerned.

BEST COMIC STORY
Christy, Malachy and Carols escapades from their planning of bungee jumping, marathon running and their swinging in the park

WTF AWARD
Found the Turlough storyline to be a bit ridiculous.

MORE OF IN 2010
More of Eileen and Cass, Jo and Dermot; Robert and Cleo, Ian.

LESS OF IN 2010
Suzanne. A lot less scenes with her; none at all would be perfect.

I know; if only Niamh knew what she was suggesting; "Lets say that Paul was the sperm donor"

Sunday

Wayne wants to set up his hair product business in Ireland and asks Dolores to become involved, financially. Malachy advises her to talk things through with her accountant, which her son is furious about. Wanting the ex-priest to butt out, Wayne suggests to Malachy that he use one of his products, especially designed for bald people. Bob and Christy fear that there are more surprises to come from the Bulgarian mafia, but, Carol informs them, after doing some research, that the boss is missing and presumed dead. Louie feigns being nice to Yvonne-more then likely to get on her good side- and then goes in for a kiss.

Tuesday

Wayne makes time to look after Jane, to give Dolores a break. At first she's grateful but soon becomes upset when she overhears her son and Cleo's conversation that she's too old to look after a baby. Yvonne tells Connie that she wants to move back to Australia with her after the adoption has been finalised, but Connie is not ready to forgive or forget. Colm asks Ali to move to Leeds with him but she says no, giving the reason that uprooting Lorcan on a whim would not be responsible of her. Colm also tries to get on Carols good side, but that's like trying to bite into a rock, impossible.

I just find this storyline so lame, it's just a re-hash of the Dermot/Ben/Deirdre/ Brendan storyline. Very lazy of the part of the script writers in my humble opinion.

Robert. Had the pleasure of meeting Sam Corry last year. The guys a legend.

Now I'm jealous. Sam seems like a really nice guy. One of the few I wouldnt mind meeting.

Met himself, Tom Hopkins (Christy), Tommy O'Neill (Deegan), and Aisling O'Neill (Carol) there in September. Really nice group of people.
Speaking of Sam Corry though... has anyone seen Situations Vacant? I didn't get around to seeing it. I wonder if it's still out in the Cinema.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Loved tonights episode as well.
Thought the whole Yvonne/Paul/Niamh/Connie/Louie storyline was pretty good tonight.
Bob's desperate search for friends was great too.
And Wayne's announcement was classic...

Dolores: "When are ya going back?"
Wayne: "I'm not. I'm back for good ma."

Love how he's trying to get rid of Malachy and Jane as well.

'FAIR City' star Joan Brosnan Walsh's reaction to her debilitating illness was inspiring, the congregation at the popular actor's funeral heard yesterday.

Next wednesday's episode

Upset about what's happened between herself and Connie, Yvonne decides to tell her lesbian lover that Paul is the father of the baby and that's why she really wants him and Niamh to have the child. Connie's heart melts and decides to stay in Carraigstown. Ali decides that she will move to Leeds with Colm, thanks to a chat with Keith. Lara takes Jane out for a walk and doesn't return for a few hours, causing dopey Dolores to throw a flailing hissy fit. Ian flirts with Orla and almost kisses her. There goes the celibacy.

I'd actually love to see this come to pass. I could help with the script, once I've written my sitcom for Channel 4 (can't have too many script ideas in my head at once). Anyone up for seriously writing a pilot for this. I think it would be brilliant. Have RTÉ actually ever had a proper detective series. It could be the Irish version of Monk.

Right I'll do the pilot with you.

Shannon is really cute I enjoyed the episode. I am loving Wayne more and more every episode

MaryCat!

Cant wait for tonight!!! An hour of Fair City!!!

Is it not enough for him to be bad at one thing (acting) without wanting to diversify?He's got good big hands for playing the guitar though.

Chinafoot

Sorry but Kylie is woeful!

It's a great show tonight. Fair play to all involved.
