The actress who plays Carol is quite awful even by FC standards. When all she has to do is smoke and drink wine, shes barely tolerable but when she gets a story to sink her teeth into she plays it way too over-dramatic and starts baring her teeth and ending up looking unintentionally comic. And why are almost all of her stories family related? Yeah we get it she had a hard life and was raised by scumbags but oh look the girl done good. BORING :rolleyes:

Don't get that. I thought she was brilliant last night.

I'm gonna call him Popeye, Dave

Is Caoimhe still the hospital? And Orla must have died of the menopause.

Going on holidays tomorrow, will miss a week of FC, I'll be relying on the fantastic comedic writing skills of you lovely thread contributors to keep me up to speed!

One of the funniest storylines was she was elected Mayor of Carrigstown. This was after her gangland connections had been exposed and her businesses had been shut down by CAB

Caddle is great at the dramatic stuff but Jesus I really wish we could see her comedic side more. She was fantastic when she started working in the small shop with Christy and was supposed to be off the fags, but she was always trying to shneak one or five.

Only catching up on Thursday's episode now. Sweet mother of divine- continuity totally lacking as from the very start to the very end:

We started with Robbies opening line to Caddle asking her is she working from home. Does Caddle have an invisible office we've never seen before ??

Then at the very end we learn Carol's sister and mother are dead. They were junkies and od'ed a while back while trigger was inside. Hmmm funny Carol never heard any of this about months ago when she had her sister mind Jack !! Remember Caddle?? Flynn was on the prowl? ?

Oh my god. Well spotted. That is actually ridiculous. They should be ashamed, scriptwriters clearly don't get a sh!t!!

I'll be honest I don't remember that! I'll see if I can find some archive footage as IF that happened it is a top trumps find! It will give me an excuse to look over that glorious siege again and get some further eveidence against that bast$rd murdering reception desk.


Oh and this comedy scene! One of the funniest FC stills in such a long time! If you didnt know it was FC you genuinely couldnt but think its a comedy sketch, could you?!! Like, seriously, how can The Ram not see them!! or here them breathing, or muffling! Or even more unrealistic than everything else how can The Ram not sniff out a female so close!

I mean look the way the folder just happens to be standing upright and the files conveniently placed! Who leaves their financial documents in a damp cellar!!!

I don't remember her saying that but I do think that Trigger lied about their 'deaths'. I think Rose would've found out and told Carol or at least mentioned it in passing if it happened a long while ago.

100% she had her sister mind Jack for a at least a week. Flynn ended up in the creche one day unannounced drawing a picture with Jack. Anyone remember?

remember that alright. Not the sister bit but I'll take your word! I just never heard a mention EVER of Caddles sister!

Good old FC, kill off a possible decent character and a character's arrival that would make sense before she even entered the show! That is budget cutting right there!

I remember. Well I remembered when u reminded me. How much does each episode cost again??? Transition year students would do a better job. Like, different transition year students every single year would have better continuity that fair city writers!

Apologies everyone - Carol sent Jack to her cousin's. Still you'd think the cousin would have mentioned the situation? !?!?!

Caddle usually just sticks Jack into a taxi and delivers to the babysitter. No communication usually takes place directly.

But, well remembered, very close to the ball you were. I am saddened you were wrong though! There are some awful potential jokes that could be posted on the site from Jack being babysitted for a few weeks in such a scenario....

Wanderer2010

Why do you call her Caddle??

I don't see it when people say shes a great actress, I think shes very wooden and she is never given anything to do bar light up yet another fag and knock back a glass of wine then when she does get a storyline she makes a bags of it with her snarling and over-acting yelling etc.

Plus, she always seems to be in it! I don't recall her getting her 3 month break yet. Most FC characters head off for a while then come back, but she has been stinking up the joint for months now.

The Talking Bread

Kind of a strong north'side enunciation slagging. Juse say it to yourself!

It was Christy's pronunciation of Carol. Remember when she dated the solicitor, Farrell?

Caddle and Faddle.

Can anyone tell me how rose knows caddies da,? Or what was the connection with Robbie all that time back where we all thought we was his Ma,

Also
Is the Rams and stripes ya affair all over

Went to a comedy gig last week and who was the mc only Cathal spilane, had no idea he was a comedian, he's better at telling jokes than acting, judging by his material he has no faith in fair city

amtc

I can't recall the context but when Rose and Carol first met Rose asked her was she anything to the Foleys in some flats. As you do. It smacked a bit of an American asking you if you knew his family the Murphys in Cork....

Sephiroth_dude

The katie story line is getting real old now and they should just clear up what happened too her.
