I'm not a drug dealer.......but that's not a scale one uses for coke/heroin unless you're Pablo Escobar! If that was a pile of coke on the ground it was a few grands worth. You think they'd know a bit more about the white stuff in RTE

Exactly why dont RTE just pay the leech off, but NO. He one of the "till death we will employ you", this fupping thing is a joke.

And while Im at it Paul and Niamh's lines are like the Tongue Twisters from Bosco.
And that reminds me have the writers from Bosco been given their jobs back as FC writers

In fairness Bosco was a lot more credible than anything in the plan storyline:D

Bosco: Well Fair City fans let's see what's behind the magic door

It's the ram riding his latest conquest boys and girls!

I'm actually not going to watch again till May 17th.

I also promised myself I will run 3km every second day, 5km once a week and get up to 10km before June. And do the Dublin City Marathon in 2018. I also swore off soft drinks for Lent.

Honestly, this is actually me out for the next week at least. I'm watching on catch up right now and I can't handle this. The suspense is so horrible, my heart is in my mouth, my anxiety disorder is off the charts!

It reminded me of when I was ordering a new digital scales from Amazon for the kitchen. The scales had a 'customers who bought this also bought' selection including tiny seal-able plastic bags

I take it there's no LH/KT/Header storyline until at least next Sunday week. I haven't seen it mentioned in any spoilers posted. FFS I actually miss them when Niamh & Paul are on (which seems to be 100% of the time). :rolleyes:

Aren't RTE a right shower of smug gob****es? JFC.

Paul should get a job stalking shelves in Marks n Spencer's.

The Irish Times contacted RTE to enquire whether it took petitions of this sort seriously. “They’re a bit of fun and it proves just how invested our viewers get in the show,” said a spokesperson for the show. So that would be a “no”.

Big stories for Fair City are planned up to two years in advance, the spokesperson explained. “We know where they are heading and how they interlock with other stories. Watching the viewers discover that is a big part of the fun for us.”

If he hadn't used his stalk on Hayley he'd be grand now

Well him having an affair with Hayley doesn't warrant all this sh*t Niamh is doing to him, Niamh is pure nasty.

So basically Nora is the new Debbie and will star in hostage take 3.

i really hate Niamh, she's emotionally abusing Paul.

Go on Paul say the line" hang samwiches".

The Nora storyline is almost an exact rehash of the Debbie one : starts working for him, becomes suspicious of him and then starts snooping on him.

Cormdogg

BINGO!

RTE's idea of "interlocking stories" are characters inexplicably knowning each other, bumping into each other in Spar and instant best friends with other characters they've never shared a scene with. Yet some characters completely seem to forget they actions or their previous interactions with each other. EG Robbie & Callum

Yep, if youre not familiar with him stick around he has some genius one liners and plays his character very well. A joy to watch.

I can't stand the sight of him, he must have the most punchable head in fair city.

It was"ridiculous " last September! But at least we could get a laugh on the thread about it then which is the only thing that matters! Now it's just, it's just happening, merely just happening!

Since Dermishh left we have ran out of anecdotes for The Plan also and to call it a mess would be insulting a mess.

Well sure we always have "CSI Nora" to laugh at. Looking forward to the siege.

I cant understand how Eoghan was charged and brought to court in Jig time and Cathal is carrying on as nothing ever happened.

They've been doing this for six months. Show her for a few weeks and then drop her again. It's a ridiculous way to cover a kidnapping storyline. In a way, they are completely trivialising it and certainly ruining any sense of drama.

Wouldn't you think they'd have shown how Debbie coped on Mothers day

His constant returning to the scene of the crimeS is bizarre! Cathal is a played well by Eric Lalor but the timing of his returns and his constant avoidance of garda intervention takes all that away.

He only returns to the same village to engage in another crime and saunters around the main street bumping into his victims all day like the cat that has got the cream!

Very good point there ! That might have been too realistic for the writers :rolleyes:

If they had thought sbout it properly they could've had a good episode of both Debbie and Rose drowning their sorrows, trying to cope with life.

The writers sent little Ruthie off on a 'sponsored walk' and no one has seen her since.

Give us a shout when the Nora-Spillane siege begins, Don't think I can sit through Spillane popping up everywhere and anywhere for the next 3 months.

She'd look glum and might tell a story about what KT did for her one mothers day when she was small.

I'm glad they didn't show it tbh

yawn
