    Is it just me or is the actress who plays Heather is doing a great job. And the lines she comes out with are pure gold...

    In my opinion it's just you..

    I agree. Just a pity the scenario and script are utter crap.

    I think she has been bad, even awful, it's far too overdone. But some of the lines are unintentionally hilarious! Unless the show is making a joke of mental illness with the dialogue......

    Haha fair enough! i sure as hell wouldn't be able to play a person recovering from a brain injury like that - but I'm probably just enjoying the cheese aspect of it all!

    I'm perplexed how anyone can think Cheshire Cat is doing a great job..even allowing for the pathetic script, her delivery, as usual is way too forced..


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,039 ✭✭✭✭retro:electro


    Heather is actually desperate. So embarrassing.

    In a wooden show like FC, the current version of her character has far more depth than any other character. That said, it hasn't been backed up with any decent backstory. But in terms of a person with a brain injury, its the most believable character in FC right now. I think she's playing it well.

    But there is no definitive version of a "brain injured person?" In fact, the title, brain-injured itself indicates that. She just seems to be trying too hard and isn't very consistent with her execution. I mean one minute SHE.IS.SPEAKING.LIKE.THIS, the next she is fluent in word execution.

    It isn't the worst actually but I think the plot and dialogue and the fact she is surrounded by a swarm makes it ridiculous!

    Nope. I think shes fantastic as well so you can add two to that list but at least I can come up with decent and robust reasons as to why I like her instead of passive aggressive stupid "jokes" aimed at people who disagree with you, eh? ;)

    On that note, Heather and Bob and Renee and Rose are the only ones who can act in FC so its been a fascinating storyline. Bit unrealistic that Ciaran is hanging around them all day every day ( the writers seem to have forgotten he has a job) but other than that I like where its going.

    Quote of the episode: Debbie walks into the café and Rose says can I get you a coffee, to which Debbie replies "I cant stop Rose, I have to go to work". SO WHY DID YOU EVEN FCUKING WALK INTO THE CAFE THEN?????:D:D:D

    I said what I said in the context of the above.

    Una is one of FC's best in terms of acting

    Absolutely spot on. She actually has a lot of other acting work done outside of FC along with Bob and Heather and it shows straight away when they are on screen with the other "regular" actors like Damien, Laura, Sash, Niamh etc. Its a pity they are at the mercy of a very inconsistent script writing but whatever they are handed they do their best with it. And sadly the likes of Carol wins awards for lighting up a few fags and rehashing her tired old tough upbringing storyline....shame.

    Every second FC scene at the moment.

    I don't dislike her. I don't know her. My posts are meant in jest.

    When does Cristiano join Niamh's plan as he is involved in everyone's beeswax so far


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,740 ✭✭✭Wanderer2010

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,050 ✭✭✭✭The Talking Bread

    She was in a few scenes with Greasy and Dermisssshhhh when he was hiding out while her son minded the house on his own.

    If she knew all along as I presume Robbie told her why sack Wayne for Paul :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,050 ✭✭✭✭The Talking Bread


    Carol 100% knew. There were arguments that Carol was worried Paul will find out about Robbie's involvement in helping Dermot

    Im so confused as to who knows what at this stage. Why didnt Robbie just tell Paul when he was winding him up the other week? Or Carol should now tell Paul Niamh was behind this. But i still cant see Paul leaving her over this. He will blame Dermot and forgive her...

    With Oisin gone, Paul has no one, even Callum helped Dermot and Jane
