It was so forced! I like Jackie and I like The Ram but Jesus, this is gonna be a bad combination. Stripey will be more depressed about those two than she will be about her missing daughter and dead son combined.

Ok, hearmehearye, but before you attempt to seduce the Ram, please answer the following questions, using these three former lovers as an example ........

1/ Do you have an attic in your house?
Do you know anything about audio-visual equipment?
Can you fill out a green t-shirt pleasingly?

2/ When a family member goes missing, do you immediately seek solace in the muscled arms of a janitor?
Is your partner facing imprisonment for accidently bumping into someone?
Have you ever been promoted from cleaner to hotel deputy manager within a 15-minute timeframe?

3/ Do you usually go around with a long, miserable face on you?
Can your former husband grow lots of wonderful facial hair in the space of a week wjthout anyone noticing?
Do you have two sons, one a weird head-shaker, the other a complete headbanger?

And the following are the deciding questions......
Have you always fancied a man who knows how to use his big screwdriver?
And would you let him fix any plumbing problems you may be having, using his oversized spanner and polished ballcock if necessary?

If you can answer ''yes'' to one or more of the above questions, then you're in there with a good chance, hearmehearye.
You go, girlfriend!!

J is a letter The Ram likes.

Orla is a Joke and Stripey is a Joyless
bag of misery so that wraps the J gang up!

The only question who is next...........John Deegn :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Reading Coolhulls post there, (another great insight into the residents of FC by you) got me thinking about the 'murder' charge that Eoghan is / was facing, has that even gone to court yet?

Cliff Walker

It has been said alot of times in the show that he is to be sententened in october and they are expecting him to be either jailled or a fined.

Nowhere is the fact that FC has so many scriptwriters more evident than this ridiculous Ram/Jackie combo- a few weeks ago Bob and Jackie were going strong and having great fun. Not a sign of any trouble and now in the space of one week she has broke it off with him and fallen head over heels for the local man slut, just no consistency whatsoever!!
The characters must despair when they are handed their scripts and see how stupid and illogical they have to act based purely on the needs of the latest round of script writers, it's almost as if some of them are possessed the way their personality keeps flipping example Hughie being a grumpy broke misery guts a few months ago roaring at his staff for no reason and now he's Mr Nice guy. Or Dermot being an aggressive sociopath or laid back accountant depending on who is writing!
I'd go so far as to say that FC wasn't even scripted tonight and the characters were given free reign as to what would happen to them and who would hook up with who. How else could you explain Jackie stripping off and giving herself totally to the Ram. Awful awful awful!

I'd say that must have flown over a few people's heads, he being the former Financial Regulator who helped banjax the country

Looks interesting !

Re Cormdogg. Post. Fair city is a million times better than red rock. Red rock have had the same story from day one. Same location
Same costumes. Same actors. Same boring police station. Same jars for tea and coffee in same police station. I think the story lines on fair city in the last year or so have been exceptional. Let's give praise where praise is due.

FC is a joke but for some unknown reason, I still like it. It tends to repeat itself with stories and characters or else do a total 180. There's zero consistency. Sometimes they can have an absolute cracker of a storyline but more often than not they tend to **** it up. Whether it's writing, acting or scheduling - key characters going missing for 3 months and other characters saying "______ is in the shower/at work/in bed/moved to Galway until we need them again." Basically it's **** but it's unintentionally hilarious and that's why I can't miss it.

Red Rock is very good though. They seem to have a better system with the writing and I really think the summer break helps because it allows the whole team to regroup and come back with something better. RTE should cut down on the FC episodes or go back to taking the summer months off.
