Long Room Hubba

Was the dad in the Knorr Season and Shake ads in Fair City? He looks dead familiar, but I can't place him.

Where did ye get that Carol was born in 1974? There was a reference recently to her been in her 40s. I think the actress is a lot younger than the character she plays. When she came in she had a 15 yr old son but I'm sure she was supposed to be around 32/33 then. I remeber it been in the papers that they'd cast someone much younger than she played.

Did Carol not say a while back when having a conversation with Louie she was only 13 when she had lorcan?? That would make her 41

Didn't he work in the pizza place years ago Ann Clark owned it? Or maybe I am mixing him up with someone else.

I think that's it. Was his name Jerry?

I thought Carol was about 45, that would make her about 17 having Lorcan

Im still trying to figure out how vivienne could tell Carol was so far gone into her pregnancy??

She did an abdominal palpation - by checking the height of the fundus (top of the uterus) it is possible to date a pregnancy fairly accurately.

The acting is so bad on this that even the passers-by in the background can't walk past without looking uncomfortable.

I'm confused I didn't know Vivienne was a doctor

Is Louis addicted to hair gel or something?

Wouldn't you think after having two children with his ex wife he would have a little clue about what was 'wrong' with Carol?

I am so... not obvservant, I never notice half the stuff pointed out on this thread, then again I am usually only half watching the telly but still...I often feel like I have been watching a different programme lol:)

I am surprised that Esther has any friends at all. She always has a scowl on her face and is constantly rude to everyone. What does Charlie see in her. She never has a good word to say about anyone and is always trying to get on the wrong side of people. :mad:

I reckon Orla should have slapped Keith more than twice. I cant understand why he would embarrass her in public like that. It doesnt make sense.

I thought Carol (the actress i mean) was about 45. I wonder what age she actually is. She certainly doesnt look in her mid thirties.

I just noticed this over the past couple of weeks-Sean is actually a good actor. I would like to see how he would get on if he was given a big storyline.

Cass was humorous as usual tonight...He plays that part so well.

I think Keith is afraid of making a commitment. Ray and himself are a good comic duo.

Aisling O'Neill (Carol) was interviewed by The Sunday Mirror in 2009 when she had a baby son. The article stated she was 34 then so she must be 36/37 this year. Her father was actor Chris O'Neill who played Michael Riordan in The Riordans. She made her acting debut in that same show as a baby. I also read an article of 2002 when she was charged with being drunk and disorderly in a public place. She was said to be 28 at that time. That would mean she was born in 1974. I just googled it.

pretty sure Aisling O'Neill was born in 1972 or 1973

How on earth was Cass allowed to run the bistro all by himself? I'm not sure I'd eat anything that he'd be preparing in the kitchen :eek:

Carol must be 43/44 ish .. Great acting this week.. Has to be Christies

I think Orla is way out of line....so ungrateful and selfish. Who cares what the ring is, she should be bloody lucky he even proposed the way she treats him.

I agree that she is ungrateful and selfish. However, Keith should have backed her up in Vinos. No way should he have made her look like a fool in public.

Yes, the acxtress was born in 74 but the character of Carol is much older- about 43. I wonder if the baby will be born brain damaged because of the smoking and drinking? I'm not sure I want to see that story.

We thought they were actually Chipsticks, but didn't go so far as to rewind and take a closer look

Obviously not accurately enough if she got a shock at the scan!
