Or was it all a dream, will there be a Bobby Ewing scene next week with John Boy in the shower ???
A superb episode tonight, Nidge was brilliant. He has the suitcase money in his safe, the stash from under the deck, John Boy and Fran out of the picture....what will happen next week. Can't wait !

first thing i see happening is nidge employing a nanny , his mrs looks sick of nursing that new bambino already and nidge cant get a wink of kip

Is there any chance the last job John boy gave Darren was to kill him? I just don't get how nidge arranged it! looks like John boy and Darren were on the same page

I notice even from the ad that Darren was sort of smirking while John Boy said "He was the only one he trusted". he hated John Boy and especially since Hughie killed his brother.

And he fired again then???

Where though ? Head or chest ?

Remember, he wears a bullet proof vest.

Ya your right, I think I'm having a slow day :-) I never expect to have to pay attention to RTE :-)

Was it my imagination - did Darren's beard dissappear in the scene with the girlfriend in the apartment ?

Continuity error ?

He was shot in a pub full of people. Its not like he can sneak off into the sunset.

Has been going around in my head too.... but i also agree with poster who said that darren hated JB


i woulda sworn blind he was gonna bottle his business suited mate when he refused to buy the mini back off CAB for him.
tension in that scene was palpable.

I agree thought yer man would pee himself!!

All in all a bloody good show

Not Now John

Great episode , Great series.

but... If a crime boss was knocked off in a pub, wouldn't the gardai be all over their flat/house that night? Nobody was around when Nidge got there.

The CCTV thing... that's been going on the whole series. In most episodes JB has been staring at it, and one time with Nidge too. Something about a ghost being on it, Hughie perhaps.

Hughie was the best thing about seriew one, it's a pity they wrote him out of it, as he would have even improved along with the rest of the cast. Although the story would have been a lot different with that psycho around.

If we're into conspiracy theories..

anyone reckon JB actually asked Darren to shoot him as his life was generally spiraling out of control and his daughter was now known about by potential enemies?

I liked Debbie, I didn't initially but I think she did a good job at the end. Gillen just oozed a sinister vibe. Excellent job

I've been thinking the very same regarding conspiracy but I seem to be wide off

Yea, I noticed that too. Slap on the wrist for the continuity department

AnonoBoy

Absolutely no way John Boy asked Darren to kill him.

CR 7

There was something odd about the way he just stood there, almost as if he was expecting it. You'd think he'd react like Aido.

Ah he'll be grand when her tits get back to normal

constitutionus

just listening to the writers on 2fm.

they asked gillen if he'd be up for a third season and it sounds like he'd be up for it if he can as he really liked how the show turned out. so while i doubt we'll see him in a third season we could see him coming back down the line if they take the o'l Twist route !

Was listening to Mailbag/Today FM/Ray D'arcy on Thursday and 3 people had noticed different obvious mistakes with editing and won bobbleheaded Rays:eek: for their observation skills.Give it a shot,folks.

we have one more episode yet! Maybe it'll be clearer.

Also JB usually tends to make sure he isn't around when there's a hit.

for once i was cheering on john boy , nothing worse than a dirty cop , deserve everything thats coming to them

I think John Boy had something on the cop. He made a comment that the money he paid him "should keep him in rent boys for a while" so he was probably blackmailing him and you could see the cop hated it and was in over his head

He was there so they could pretend it was a hit that Fran organised.

Everything in life is fast with our Darren. Shootings are fast with little fuss. Sex is fast and now beards grow fast

Flashbacks might work either. I really hope they don't resurrect the character. I think the ending of Series 1 worked well because you didn't know there'd be a Series 2.

cant say im surprised.

the bloke should get an award for this.

it really was one hell of a preformance. you practically see the bloke self distructing over the episodes.

its up there with the best stuff ive seen in the cinema TBH and part of the reason i got dragged into this.

this stuff really aint my genre but its been enthralling.

I think John boy was the least convincing gangster ever and probably the worst character in the whole series

Oh and Fran too, terrible acting.

That's what they were talking about in the woods, he arranged it then and that's what Darren had to think about.
