    As RTEs big follow-up to Love Hate, its awful. Not even in the same planet.

    Some of the acting is shocking.

    That was supposed to be Terry....but I doubt that scene ever happened.....

    I feel sorry for both families for such a lame effort at drama....

    I get the joke now but in those heady days of shirts in boxes we didn't have a voice of people who shouted "Guarantee Irish"....I remember it well, I was in the retail thread.....Were you brought up with the GI Trademark??....What about our tweeds/ arts/ natural products....will this drama do Charlie's legacy justice??.....

    Is there consensus on hid legacy? I'm not sure there is. Maybe thats why there is so much interest in this, to see how they portraye him, and in so doing, what sway it might have on his legacy.

    I was born in 73 so a lot of this I was too young for, but I come from a family that would call him a crook.

    Can't get into this , maybe it's my repulsion of the man C.H but also Aiden Gillen and his accent again, like when he was in Love Hate i didn't think of it or it wasn't a thing but in this and game of thrones it really is annoying, don't know what it is about bur just doesn't sound right :confused:

    It has got nothing in the slightest to do with Love/Hate

    Actually I'm definitely wrong on Bertie... He only ever wore a donkey jacket.

    The scene in the car with Terry Keane surely wouldn't have happened. Wasn't the affair kept private til she revealed all on the LLS?

    The dialogue might be hammy but i think the acting is alright to be honest. One thing ill say for Haughey, for his many many flaws he sure had a pair of balls on him unlike todays wimps. Theyd hide under the couch at the mere mention of the word Thatcher.
