I realise this is Fair City, and most of the characters couldn't pick their real daddy out of a small crowd, but...

....Can someone tell me why Rachel keep calling Bela 'Grandad'?

Have some patience..he will flip out soon... hanging around with Doug and Jackie would drive anyone over the edge.

I dont think hanging out with Doug would drive anyone over the edge, hes a really nice guy and a good son and brother.

Of course :rolleyes:
Then is there a reason why she never has any interaction with her 'aunts'?

I wouldn't worry. Laura never exchanged a word with Louise up until a few weeks ago, now they are best mates

Because one of them is dead, the other is in Australia and the other (Louise) one isn't actually her aunt. She claims to be her aunt but we all know that she is just an extra from Ros na Run who was headhunted by Yvonne because she was particularly good at chopping tomatos, pouting, making sarcastic and bitchy remarks, never smiling, always wearing a black nun like outfit and being a very boring character. Even Rachel has a more cheerful disposition and that says a lot

Is Yvonne dead, or are you thinking of Helen, Rachel's mother?

Nina is pissing me off, one day she is moving to London (if she got the job) now she wants Laura to move in with her, no explanation as to what would happen if she got the job in London! .......... Still no sign of Paula working in the Station (I haven't forgot)

Or no follow up with the social wondering why an old woman stop collecting her pension

Actually could anyone tell me about Helen, Rachel's real mother? Is she dead/how did she die? Also, what was the story with her and Paul? I googled and all I got was Helen left another man at the alter for Paul. Apparently this happened in 1994, before I was born so f anyone could fill me in I'd appreciate it I also wonder why Niamh refers to Rachel as her daughter...is that not a bit disrespectful to Helen?

Charlotte calling him Bela one day and the next calling him Mr. Doyle ?

Actually Laura and Louise (and Ciara Cassidy) were best friends during their secondary school days.

Here is a lengthy article about Helen's death from the Irish Times TV critic at that time (September 1998).....Helen had earlier been involved in a car accident :

Can anyone remember when Damien was married to Suzanne, did the issue of having children come up? Did they agree not to have them? or did Suzanne think he would change his mind?

He didn't want them with her either, wise decision seeing as she started beating him up!

Saw Dr Shane in this weeks episode of Penny Dreadful.

I think the bipolar story is excellent, maybe a bit exagerated but excellent. I feel sorry for Doug, he is getting pulled in all directions.

When caoimhes baby is born, will Tommy be back and discover Junior is his? Damo will come round eventually and it'll be grand I'm sure. He did have an issue with Suzanne and children and they agreed not to have children, but Suzanne wasn't entirely happy with that.

Where is Yvonne again?

Yvonne went off to Galway in February to 'get her head together' and to 'find herself'.
I hope she did find herself, because nobody else in Carrigstown went looking for her, or even enquired how she is.
