He is not necessarily. Read up on what a paedophile is. Age is not always relevant.

Far too many times people bandy about the term paedophile completely inaccurately.

Is Conor Tyrrell also a paedophile?

Not getting into an argument about paedophiles. As far as I know they are the lowest of the low that prey on young children. I was under the impression that if the vulnerable child is under 16 years of age than the paedophile could be imprisoned. Mind you I do realise that paedophiles are very manipulating evil scum and often get off on all charges. Sadly.

Who's arguing? Simple: Labelling a person a paedophile based off age alone "can be wrong," and "can be" inaccurate. That's the only point I made.

paedophilia relates to pre pubescent kids, normally determined under age of 12 or 13 at most.

I believe so. That word gets thrown around a lot but very often inaccurately. A 20 year old having a relationship with someone aged 16 and a half in Ireland would be a "paedophile" according to the same narrative.

No. He's not.

My recollection from the first series is that Rachel was said to be 15 at the time.

Atlantic Dawn

I wonder will Rachel or her Dad make an exit from the show if either is found guilty of the murder, they are hardly going to give weekly updates from jail on how they are getting on.

Foggy Jew

Ok. So Brian may not have been a textbook paedophile, but he took advantage of an underage, vulnerable 15 year old. He manipulated her & he brainwashed her. He deserved what he got.

Foggy Jew

And the award for most superfluous character in RedRock goes to .... Niamh. A Granny in young girls clothes.

He was certainly hugely manipulative and lacking in morals but it did become obvious towards the end of Series 2 that it was Rachel who first made a move on McGonigle, not the other way around. That in no way excuses his actions but she seems to be trouble herself.

She's a toerag. He's not great, but she is despicable!

I am looking for theme music from Red Rock but can not find it on google any body know who created the theme song?

Yes, she's almost like a junior McGonigle, quite manipulative in her own way even though McGonigle was an even cleverer manipulator.

The composer is Debbie Wiseman. She appears to be English and has written quite a few other TV themes.

She has a superb CV, composing the theme music to series like Father Brown and Land Girls and many, many more.

Yeah she really does very impressive. lots of sound bytes on Soundcloud too.

Foggy Jew

Denise Wiseman? Oh my...... For a few seconds there I was thinking of Denis Waterman, and the Little Britain sketch, where he 'wrote the theme toon'..... My brain works in mysterious ways.....

Sorry to point out the misfortune of getting it wrong twice but it's Debbie Wiseman.

Watched this show on BBC. Anyone know why TV3 don't provide series 2 on the player? I'm looking to catch-up on series 2 before watching the new series but the few links that were provided infected my laptop with viruses. Any ideas?
Thanks

Didn't watch Red Rock but saw the ads for the new season and thought it looked good so I've been catching up and just finished season 2 On Demand on UPC/Virgin.

Don't want to spoil and can't seem to find the spoiler thing on my phone but the last episode I watched from season 2 involved Paudge and McKay but the new season seems to pick up with Rachel and McGonigle and the "Previously on Red Rock" was stuff I hadn't seen.
So what am I missing ?
Is there more episodes in season two that I haven't seen ?

Aaaarrghh, looks like I'm missing a whole season. New season is 4 and on demand only has 1&2.

Do you think Katie and Michael will now hook up

That's probably what would happen in any other show and if Red Rock want to continue to be predictable and like every other show, it will happen, although I would like to think Katie is strong willed enough for it to not happen.

Neither the Hennessys or Kielys would approve of that either

Lex Luthor

Michael gave himself a hiding.....interesting

Cortina_MK_IV

Jane McGrath is in the new drama Moonstone on BBC1 from next Monday @2:15pm. The beeb took a shine to her.

Atlantic Dawn

Decent episode last night, Michaels prison mate working at Harbour Haulage should livin the show up a bit.

Next episode preview at the end of last nights showed him working there.

He speaks like Fran from Love Hate!

I've only started watching the show this season, but I have to say I don't think there's enough going on for it to only have one episode a week. Wasn't it on a few times a week last year?

Ah I see. What do you think? It feels a bit long between episodes, you'd nearly forget what happened the previous week!

prodsc

Was over in a flash previously! I used to watch them together during the week so it is much the same to me.

nikkibikki

Ah FFS. Not back till January and they pretty much gave away the whole plot of what's to come.

jimmyw

This is absolutely pathetic,beginning of November and they are taking a break for in effect the Christmas period.They are not long into the series in the first place. Seriously bad form from them in my view.......jeez :rolleyes:


Them biccies that yer wan made were fairly big, and might have contained drugs maybe!!

Absolutely ridiculous 'preview'. Gave away far too much.

Red Rock has been pretty dull viewing lately. If I hear that clown Hennessy saying 'Katie, I wanna see my son' one more f**king time....

happyday

I think the only thing they didn't should us was what happened to Donna Burke. The sergeant is one misogynist pig of a man.

Wtf, no notice at all of the break, I thought it would have run right up to Christmas week.

Very strange. Something must have happened behind the scenes to make them pull the show from the schedule like this, there's no way this would have been the plan when they launched the new series in September. It looks like it was pulled at very short notice.

I thought they were halting it for I'm A Celebrity but that's on UTV Ireland.

Flippyfloppy

Sure Theres no need to watch it at all after that preview!

septern

I agree with previous posters that it is v strange to take such a long break, with no notice.

All other soaps ramp up for Christmas, with extra episodes, Christmas specials etc.

I loved the first season, but this season has not been as enjoyable for me. The plots have been more predictable and its not the same............

They should have an episode for Christmas at least.

starlit

Ya it been nice if they had a Christmas episode having to wait till January!? They probably be on repeat for Christmas!

Monife

Was there an episode this week?
