Well that was.........cringey.

The dumb movie story seems to have been replaced with alex, juliette and the band /crush thing.

The continuity of storylines is just brrutal, although im happy to see the back of the movie stuff

Galwayguy35

This Alex crushing on Dearbhla story is pure muck, the writers must have run out of ideas on how to fill in the half hour tonight.

NewbridgeIR

Did the booked band just not show up? If so, FLAKEY!

Mister Vain

Juliet talks like she's in an audition. Dreadful acting altogether.

9 years for assisting the hiding of a body? In Ireland? Some joke, you could kill 10 people in that time and the absolute most you would get is 2 years, and even that would be suspended. The script writers want us to believe that in a country where serial burglars and criminals with a record longer than the Nile walk free every day, that a young lad roped in by an older man would actually serve NINE YEARS. Wow.

I don't think he actually served 9 years though. Wasn't he on the run for a while? I think he eventually handed himself in.

Was Alex off in Armenia for the climax ending of the Ciaran storyline?

Orla will go medieval on Dolly when she finds out she missed Olivia's sleepover

Can someone remind me, what were the hurtful things Orla said to Wayne last week?

That neither junior nor Olivia are his flesh and blood, that he had no part in creating Olivia.

Poor Samantha left upstairs on her own with Aunty Sash gone on the sleepover, and Uncle Denzo, Da and a couple of random strangers on a session downstairs....won't end well.

Did they even mention Samantha? Was only half watching.

Yes before Sash left for the walk with Olivia, Decco said Sam was fast asleep.

Very strange that Sash would go into Dolly's house and then agree to stay over not giving a thought to Sam.

Yeah I would have thought she'd have considered Sam too.

Ger and the detective def going to have an Affair.

She looked very disappointed when he said he couldn’t go to the show.

There's a definite disconnect between the story writing and the availability of the relevant actors, just like when Caoimhe returned after a few years away and didn't share any scenes with her family before she left again (as far as I remember).

It's not just the character roster I think the writers are on a rotating roster too. There was an old breakdown of what fair city spends and they had waaaay too many writers to not be rostered too

It has to be the main reason that character and plot lines are forgotten, contradicted and in some cases completely retconned.

They can be bad but I refuse to believe if the same writers were there full-time it could be this bad it just can't

It has to be some kinds of classic RTE carry on that by constantly rotating staff on short term contracts they can't get caught for redundancies and other employment protections a full time staff member would get

The actors they can just about get away with constantly brining them back with short term contracts but it's disgusting doing it to actual staff that should be permanent

It isn't right what they are doing and I realize I'm getting just like Ray, "up da workurs!" :pac:

Naggdefy

Wayne and Sash?!

Naggdefy

Anytime I hear Decco threatening to use force I laugh.

He told Denzo that he'd throw out all Denzo's 'mates' himself in yesterday's episode. Decco is about 5ft 3in. He's like a little koala bear with a beard.

In fairness she'd treat him right as she's a nice girl.

Ya she'd give him a slap across the head when he's an eejit but she would treat decent unlike that yoke Orla

Jesus Barry :eek:

I haven't been this shocked with a twist since the end of the usual suspects

How was Barry able to withdraw money from both accounts? (I'm a casual viewer at best so go easy on me haha)

How many more times is paul gonna have all his money stolen????

And how many more times is he going to bounce back? They will probably have him winning the lotto next.

Wasnt it like €500,000 or even more Wayne stole of Splprus a few years ago at the click of a button.

Much more, over €900,000.

Shur that's nothing. Wayne's friend was able to transfer almost a million euro from Dolores's account by just pressing enter.

My apologies to any Barry fans, but I hope he's gone for good and that Fiona follows him. Probably one of the most boring stories in FC history.

Agree with you on Fiona, I find her incredibly wooden to watch. She glides around dressed like she’s going to a corporate meeting or a fashion show, first thing in the morning , last thing at night. No such thing as kicking off the heels when she comes into the house, or ditching the formal blouses and straight skirt for a tracksuit or comfy pair of PJs, after a full day in them , it’s a bit unrealistic !

Her delivery of lines and her expressions are also unrealistic. Posh accent , nose in the air, disdainful expressions. Hard to know if she is like this in person ........or just overacting the part.

She's a lady...remember those..??..they died out in the 90's.....not a skanger who thinks dressing up is putting on a new tracksuit and olympic ear-rings...:)

I was expecting her to leave the pub and get into a taxi....with Barry....:eek:

Yea I thought he was hiding out in Spain and came home for the wedding and got caught then

Niall_76

Was funny how Barry was sauntering around the community centre, not a bother on him, across the road from the person he had stolen from.

Paul didn’t get the text notification that his account was cleared out? Terrible customer service I’d get into that bank if I was him, haha

Well I’d like to think I’m a lady too....but when I come from my good full time job I definitely take off my corporate gear ! It’s into leggings or a tracksuit bottom and out for a run before chilling........ in front of Fair City

Who on earth walks around the house in the evening , after a long day at work (does Fiona work ?) , in their high heels and straight leather skirt? Fiona always looks like a visitor to the house, rather than someone who lives there !

jos28

Niamh used to do the same thing. She was always tottering around the house in high heels, office skirts or dresses. It was mentioned regularly in earlier threads about her lack of casual gear. Paul must love the 'take a letter Miss Jones' vibe.

Where the hell was Fiona going everyday, she didn't seem to have a job. All dressed up and no work to go to.

He's in jail with Dermot and they are sharing a cell.
They will return as a couple in a few months.

I think Dermot left Barry for Will and that’s why Barrys Walking around like he’s sucking nettles the whole time.

CollyFlower

I think Barry is going to give the money to the community center fund.

branie2

And Paul will fight to get it back

When is their movie been released?

I thought that too, especially when they showed the photo of Charlie and Mags.
Maybe he'll throw a few bob Denzo's way too. That would really make Paul's blood boil

splinter65

Has anyone any idea how much money he stole altogether? I’m lost!

I'm getting jaded with Barry and his morals. I want him to go full b@stard and just steal the money. And leave. Leave for good.
