Money. Might not be much but obviously best he can get.

I think they'd be afraid to question the **** they're giving, they'd be out on their ear, it's best for them to say nothing and for them and carry on reciting the scrip they're giving.


It doesn't seem like the actors and writers are working together, but how could the actors approach the writers if there's 36 of them.

Nah, just talking about the odd one liner they come out with. Eric Lalor is a very funny man and I bet he has helped build the Cathal character himself a bit with regard the comedy elements.


My only problem is that he is far too comicy though. Like a Fair City version of Neagan in The Walking Dead

And that's why the majority of the actors stay there, I think.

The comical one liners are good. The plot is hopeless.

I had my best friend over for dinner thursday. He has absolutely never seen Fair City. Anyway as he was cooking I was watching it and trying to explain various plots to him. All of a sudden he said he had to pop to the shops. He came back with two bottles of wine, a packet of cigarettes (he hasn't smoked in five years) and promptly told me if I was going to watch anything so bad we could never be friends again. He can be over dramatic but I did think it was funny!

Did he meet 46 neighbours there and hold numerous important conversations? :pac:

Nope, he probably only met the same 2 or 3 people about 15 times and engaged in hostile interaction!

I love that you had your friend over for dinner but made him cook!

I find it quite disturbing that a person could be writhing in pain in the final stages of terminal cancer and needs to get pain meds on the black market. (Then trots off to the pub!) I'm sure any palliative care expert would confirm that Trigger is everything except dying.

amtc

He's a better cook than me, and I was actually ironing his shirt at the time.

The funny thing was him waving round knives and spatulas as I explained the whole kt thing. I ended up doing a kind of family tree by the end.

The context for this coming up is his sister lives in Scotland and watches it there. So it was to contextualize for her. It took us some hours to dissect!

sligojoek

What scottish channel is it on? I've a friend over there who is a big fan of Eamonn Morrisey's. He'd enjoy Cass.

Is Charlotte after Emmet?

STV2 - I believe the ratings are not bad

sligojoek

Cheers I'll pass that on.

I miss FC tonight, I was getting used to it been on on Sunday... Aw well.

JP Liz V1

I saw Hilda (Tracy) in Annie, I so wanted to shout up any sandwiches for Dominic :P

Was thinking that alright... She seemed pleased when he praised her at one point last week. She needs to get shot of the Brennan boys for once and for all. Maybe she can persuade Emmet to have a wash - or a shave at the very least. He always looks so grubby.

I like Charlotte with Oisin, was hoping they'd get hitched, just to see the faces on Paul and Nicola :P

They were well matched..... I'm surprised she hasn't taken advantage of KT, she was always sceaming Bitch and wouldn't be a bit bothered by taking advantage... What's happened to her?!

Fair City's story with Trigger is a bit of an insult to Hospices. They have such a crucial role in caring for and providing pain relief to people who are dying.

She definitely gave him a loving glance last week when he praised her over something. What is it with Emmet and good looking girls (the dark haired girl from the group also) finding him attractive? Suppose he has a nice smile, and if he tidied himself up a bit is alright.

laylag

Emmet is v handsome. I think it's the brown clothes n huge scarves that make him look a bit scruffy!

Oh and the flock of seagulls hair doesn't do him any favours!

That's the best hair description i've heard in a while! You've got me thinking whether my own hairstyle is errm, doing me harm with the ladies!

It's mad and wild and curly!! Covers down my neck at the back..

What's a top knot? I'll find an appropriate internet pic and post. Not of me know but similar hairdo and you give me the thumbs up or down

Jaysus i'm starting to post like Mr. De Bild now!!

You're a girl anyway i take it laylag? I'm not chatting you up now or anything as i'm sure the mods wouldn't allow it and i don't want half the Fair City boards posters stealing my chat up lines

Or if your a boy who likes boys and can advise me on what my hairdo is like that's fine too

laylag

I am indeed! A top knot is Connor McGregor style hair...you know a man bun. Anything other than that or a comb over is all good!*

*This is a personal opinion. I have no hair related credentials to back any of this up!

nagdefy

Thanks Laylag. I'm not a top knot. It's obviously not the hair so!! Ah only messing i don't fare that badly with the ladies:)

Is this what you look like Mr. Nagdefy? You are very handsome young man. You do very well with the ladies in Germany. Frau Bild go wild for you! Have confidence and as those rowers from West Cork would say, when you are out in the club go 'pull like a dog'!!

You remind me of someone..

No, but he's a professional pest.

Oh no, I was hoping the script writers forgot about him!

Exactly how involved with her baby-making does he get?!

The Dutch 'caps'.

Could seriously do without that Kerri Ann storyline. It is truly sad to see Decco, a character with a lot to offer if used the right way, reduced to such storylines. It is stories like this that ruin Fair City (and all soaps: the others had their moments too with silly stories) and it takes away from the better stories. Any baby or having baby stories bore me to tears. There are people out there who want to do more with life and have no interest in having children and want to achieve other things. These stories must be done to entertain Tubridy who is always on about similar things on his TV show.

Cormdogg

Decco is a 5 nothing "hard man" who has never acted on an idle threat in ten years.

But...not the worst actor on the show. He is one of the few that don't deliver their lines like they're reading them off a queue card for the first time

jace6

The only interesting baby story lines in soaps are if there is confusion over paternity,(done to death in soaps though) and whether it is a boy or a girl and the name chosen. Then they usually end up in their room upstairs for the rest of their childhood and are rarely seen.

Decco could do with a much more interesting plot with a bit of suspense in it given his dodgy past. Making a character a hardworking, honest family man is boring to watch.

Painful viewing and listening to the american twangy accent. O please make it stop.

Cazale

Haven't watched fair city in a couple of weeks and trigger is still dying and Pete and Bob are still arguing. At least Groundhog Day had Bill Murray in it.

Another thing fook Charlie and the high horse he came in to the community center on.
