If this was written in any proper way Heather would have spat it out by now about Ciarán

Is it just me or did anyone else actually enjoy that episode of Fair City?

It all seemed rather ridiculous.

The Reckoning..... at last.

Dermot's storyline really is beyond ridiculous.

A decent, honest man flips completely. Embezzles millions from a friend to provide for 2 kids who aren't on the poverty line. Then all the crazy 'logistics'.

Then don't even talk about the two 'Chile Peppers'

Don't forget the mother of said kids fought for years to bring them into the home, suddenly one of the kids is sick, she worries for weeks, brings him to America for care apparently he can't get in Ireland,, shacks up with the Doctor and tells the kid to f off back to Ireland in his American style clothing attire.

Damn that Una Kavanagh can act. I didn't even know I was holding my breath for the whole scene where Ciaran was about to whack her, it was great stuff. They say the measure of an actor is if they can make you BELIEVE what they say and the logic behind their actions and she does that in spades. I feel so many things for Heather it does my head in- anger that she has such a nasty side to her and she drives people away. Deep pity that she is a woman in mental distress (Irish stigma alive and well with Emmets "headcase" comment). Shes a complex person played extremely well.
I cant imagine even Heather though will let Katy rot just to see Ellie, shes a mother herself so she surely can feel the pain of The O Briens.
And despite this, some boring one trick pony character like CAROL will probably get nominated for an award for playing the same old poor me school of hard knocks story she has been playing for years now, theres no justice.

Weird ending tonight, almost as if it was mid-scene.

they should have another programme after fair city called 'the xtra fair city' where they could feature that crowd and they could nearly stick in Dermot's story along with them - and leave us with the KT story for the moment

How did the voice changer suddenly sound like Heather, not in that deep voice we've always had?

I missed the last few days, only home!

But this post sums up so much about this plot!

One FC is quite enough for anyone I think!

He presses a button and holds down every time he talks to Katy in order to activate that deep voice.

It was definitely one of the better episodes. Great scene with Heather and Ciaran. Best acting I've seen in a while.

Una Kavanagh acting in FC is the equivalent of a Premier League footballer joining a group of lads having a kickabout in the Park- he totally dominates the game and makes the other players (utter utter crap like Christiano setting up- ah who cares) look obsolete. Shes too good for FC. Even a whole episode of just Heather and Bob looking at each other in silence is still 10 times better than the majority of episodes this year.
If they could match decent actors like Bob and Heather with equally talented scriptwriters, FC could be brilliant.

what I meant is keep the good bits in one show and the other filler stories in the extra so you could skip it

Cheshire Cat. Give it a rest!

I thought it was a great episode tonight, great by FC standards.... Not reading spoilers makes it better. .... They let themselves down with the sense where Jane says, "I have to collect Ben from school" .. FFS, how embarrassing will that be for 6ft, 13 year old Ben having to be collected from school.. :rolleyes:

dermot's doctor is from killinascully.

so glad Heather came back. Ama by comparison is depressing to watch.

She's been taking lessons from Jo I think. Sounded very like her when she exclaimed "Dermish!"

Ben's fake passport gave a birth date of 2006. He definitely was not born before 2005 so he could only be 11 at most.

Jane's face when she found out Robbie knew was going say priceless but she always has a price

coolcat1991

Can't belive Ben and Ellie are like the same
Ellie talks like 4 year old and somtimes behaves like one
Ben talks like a normal 12 year old and acts a least his age in he can be annyoung at times but what preeteen boy hasn't had their moments

Ellie is mommy going to be sick again

Ben Dad you should have told me im a bit a little child

Ellie is blooming mollycolddle
Ben seems to grown up a bit since he got away from smoothering Jo

Haha just watch the Fair city extra clip on RTÉ Player, it's hilarious.

I know FC is bad, but surely Cheshire Cat won't just forget K T and never have another scene with LH? I know it's seen as virtuous to keep you word, but this is different!
