Fair City [News, Spoilers & Discussion v5] Read Post #1 Before Contributing

Who answers the door and doesn't even check to see who's there? I'm referring to the part just before Wayne barged in and confronted his missus.

SoapFan27

Wayne has really gone OTT on the paranoia front but what was Orla thinking keeping it from him about the insurance?
If Wayne and Orla break up, where does that leave Wayne and Junior?

Wonder if Tommy is still living in the b&b on his savings!! How long can that go on for??

Whatever happened to Cathriona Cassidy ? Was it to Galway or cork she went to ?

They must all go to these other provincial towns via the Bermuda Triangle.

Presumably if Tommy has been passed medically fit by the authorities, he would be eligible for unemployment assistance (or perhaps some form of disability payment if not).

But disability benefits or dole payments wouldn't stretch to breakfast, lunch, dinner and pints seven days a week, plus offering Snuffle-arse Orla a few hundred euro for "the young fella."
Or if it does, then Joan Burton has a lot to answer for.

Yes, it would be less than €200 a week and he seems to have a lot more than that

The scene with Farrah and kaaaatie was another cringeful example of faircity writing. Why would Michael approach a virtual stranger like Farrah to see if she'd 'have a word' with her. A few snaps of some African people was enough to stop her going to one of central America's top tourist destinations. Farrah was a complete ham. Its also a joke that she would get a loan of 5k for someone she has only been friends with a wet weekend.
I also laughed at Niamh saying cmon up when she hadn't a clue who was there, and if she thought it was the takeaway delivery surely the lazy bitch should have had the courtesy to go down to the door. The gas thing is it was probably the first time she has eaten in her home in months and she ends up getting a takeaway. It would be a great storyline if Nina fleeces laura of her inheritance, mind you she wouldn't want to get a slap from laura.....her hands are bloody huge.... Nearly as big as Leo's

hungrypig

......actually I can only verify that one of Leo's hands is exceptionally big. .....the other one is super-glued to his pocket

Orla's "weeping" at the end of tonights was really cringey to be looking at!

Yeah it sounded more like she was choking on a spud than crying.

Hughies line to Wayne about no petrol in the tank was funny though.

If you're on disability allowance you can still have 50k in savings before it affects your 188pw payment. Not so with job seekers allowance .

Damien is being a bit of a dick. He should be grateful he got the house for long without the others asking for anything. He only owns 1/3.

He owns 1/3 of the house and is in full time employment in the shop and nixers from everyone in town, Caoimhe is also working.. Surely they'd be ok to re-mortgage and buy the other two out?

I think you can have 20k in savings on Job seekers.

Why does Dermot always talk to his son like he is a 3 year old?!?

drugstore cowboy

While having a pregnancy scare should the woman head for the doctors surgery rather than the pub?!?!

Tetra

Does anyone ever make an appointment to see the GP? Everyone seems to ask him questions in the street etc.

The Talking Bread

What's the deal with this young man eyeing up Ama??

My dad says Husband & I said its her brother guess we will find out tomorrow night

Also anyone think the Shane is into Sean or is it just me?

CollyFlower

I'm thinking 'brother' also!

Yeah Jo, Benjamin will have great fun spending the day at the launderette! :rolleyes:

sligojoek

They have different surnames in the credits.

Yes, thought there was something between the two also. Did Ama actually kiss Shane in the pub? Did we just see her get off her seat, then the camera went to her 'brother'/husband' then camera goes back to Shane looking extremely stunned!.

Haven't seen Fair City in two weeks and seem to have missed nothing.
A lot of aggro in tonight's episode and I even felt hassled myself when it was over!

hearmehearye

I wonder if this new lad has something to do with Ama's time as an au-pair/housekeeper?

coolhull

If the new guy just came over from Africa, he certainly has good English.
Though Ama went from pidgin English to Oxford English in about 3 months.......

And Caoimhe proves to us once again that if you get sudden agonising abdominal pains, the best place to go is the pub, where you can be certain that friends, neighbours, and of course the local nurse will all come to your aid.

I suppose its a good way of avoiding to pay the 50 euro to see him seeing as they constantly have to eat and drink out everyday.

Grandeeod

Orla upset that Wayne suggested she was a trollop? I always thought she was a trollop or am I mistaken after subjecting myself the this **** soap for too many years.

Ok that was really weird at the end, why was Shane acting all shocked it was only a bleeding kiss on the check.
