I think you're right. There was snow outside McCoys about a month after it hit the rest of the country.

When do you think the recession will hit Carrigstown - no dole queue there at all at all....

I'm not so sure about that. An old man living in a van, Doug's da worried about meeting his dole officer, Dominic leaving the country in search of affordable sandwiches, wage cuts in McCoys, everyone worrying about bills and plumbers. I'd say they were in danger of overdoing the recession talk.

They jumped the gun a bit with Louis buying up everything. I don't think many businessmen are picking up the pieces in real life until the serious evictions start, but not eveyone is going to be worse off when the recession is over. There's always some flash guy who bought cheap and kept his head down.

Recession certainly has hit the casting people anyway. Couldnt afford proper actors for Doug, Doug's Da, Doug's Da's Missus, Doug's Da's Missus' Son, At the risk of becoming a Fair City version of the The Rathlin Bog I will stop. But you see where I'm going with this.

When you compare the girl who plays Belle in Emmerdale, and the girl who plays Dotty in Eastenders, the under 20s actors in Fair City are very very poor. The text-to-speech on the computer puts more feeling into the lines I feed it.

I am bored silly with Niamh and Paul and their family... i wish they would introduce a new family as the focus on them and Bella and co are a snooze fest.

Well whatever about the rest, but Doug still gets me with his moody teenage moping, fabulous. maybe Louis is from the future when the recession has ended and is buying it all up for then. Lovin the Mr.Whippy Van, I think an award should go to the dog.:pac:

While watching FC last night I had this craving for Kellogg Cornflakes. Then I understood why - in Phelans - there's Kellogg's in a nice prominent position for the shot, and then in the community centre another Kellogg's product in the shot (can't be 100% sure but it looked like Special K), and then best of all in Ray and Deegan's flat a lovely shot of Kellogg's Cornflakes - beside it was a box of Cheerios in all fairness but later in another shot the Kelloggs was again displayed but the Cheerios had gone. Is this my imagination?????

Maybe your craving had something to do with the three big Kelloggs ads before the programme and at both sides of the ad break.

Think back. Did you used to get a craving for FBD insurance?

If I didn't get on with someone from my family, I would never turn around and ask them to leave :eek:

No never got a craving for FBD and I cant remember any scenes within Fair City advertising them either (apart from the scheduled ones before, middle and end of programme)

It was just something I noticed - maybe it was just that one episode but we'll see over the coming while......

Yeah, that was hilarious! They probably couldn't have done it worse if they'd tried! At least it brought a smile to my face!

Not quite a bad a cock-up as then RTE accidentally broadcast the final of Challenging Times a week early, instead of the semi-final. I think the semi-final never got broadcast.

angel01

What a mess RTE made of fair city last night! I can't be bothered with cliodhna. Who needs enemies when you do this to your own sister!!

and as for Niamh STFU!!!
