She does seem quite aggressive for no real reason. Not the best personality for a hotel receptionist!

God, her and that murdering reception desk would tear lumps out of eachother if they worked together

people judging her demeanour and lack of empathy or social skills! Was it really necessary to blackmail a woman whose child is missing into giving her a job the first time you see her since her going missing!
Being gay, she probably doesnt understand how irresistible The ram is to be fair though.

One raise of the ram's eybrows and she's his.

The writing has improved a fair bit with a lot of quotables...

my favourite was the interaction between Paul and Chewie..
Paul: "and while yer thinking about it...A Woine, A point and an Oringe"

Oisin's writing and acting is great.. Paul's falling apart... Oisin grabs popcorn and literally watches.

What's the deal with Nicola... I missed a part a few months ago... is she plotting something against Paul with Oisin?

These last two episodes have had(well maybe i pointed out stuff) me and my sisters laughing at FC.

I dont think ive laughed as much as Wednesday episode, where in the background you could see an extra in SPAR;
Reach for "cream crackers" very slowly
Then slowly put them back down
And, yes put them back on the shelf.
And beside her, there was some lady reading Uncle Bens's labels..

Seems trival, but it made me laugh:)

oh trust me its not!! Its a frequent joke on here the zombie like activity of the Spars customers standing at the aisles (mainly the mineral shelf we see) staring at the product and then slowly picking one up, staring at it and then slowly putting it down and starting the process again!!

In fairness though you would hear some gossip standing around that shop the way every bit of dirty laundry is aired.

The fizzy drink section is the most popular in the shop.

there is nearly a queue to get there. That ould lad behind your man who is intensely staring at the swiss roll looks pretty pi$$ed off he can't get by him to stare at some fizzy orange

The other night I saw an extra pick up a box or packet of something, stare at it for approx. 5 seconds and then put it back on the shelf behind all the other items. I got a good laugh out of it.

i meant as with watching the show as it was testing any remaining bit of sanity, that why I said to keep me updated! I envisage abandoning the thread is not an option though.

Ha ha I was falling around laughing too! It was like "slo mo" everything! Who reads the back of a packet of crackers, fizzy drinks REALLY slowly and then REALLY slowly put them back on the shelf? Why buys all their shopping in Spar anyway? It's the kinda shop you grab something and rush out - it's not like doing your weekly shop in Tesco where sometimes you might read labels. It's so mad - the place is always full of people with baskets of shopping!!

I remember when I was working in Supervalu, I was stacking the shelf up a bit from where the jars of jams were and the jams were stacked up on top of each other and for some reason this customer instead of taking the one on top he pulled the jar from underneath so the top jar came flying off smashing to the floor and after it had smashed to the floor he just just kicked it underneath the shelf and went on his way. so strange .

They should so incorporate that into a scene - Paul flirting with Hayley by the Dolmio tomato sauce, extra knocks a jar to the floor, spattering red goo all over her white mini skirt... looks of horror and disgust all round, then the extra just kicks the pieces of jar under the shelf and calmly walks out...

ya that would be a great scene. I hope the fair city writers are reading this. Please put this into a scene.

Hayley & Paul are made for each other both as obnoxious as the other
