Louis claims to be but i think it is Christy.

Christy should sack Sean as manager in the shop and do the job himself. I have never liked him, but since he got the job of manager he has become a major pain in the backside. And could something be done with the staff in the shop. They look like cardboard cut outs.

Another thing, has the youngest of the Bishops, some sort of thing for Paul. She seems to be hanging around the place alot recently. I know she is friends with Pauls daughter, but she seems to be watching him a lot recently.

Is anyone else really hating Louis' kids? That Joey is contemptible and their accents are annoying. I was watching it yesterday with my mother, and when Carol said that Louis had extended their stay another week, we both groaned out loud.

The children are annoying but I wouldn't mind seeing Ingrid staying around for a bit and having another child with Louie. Carol could with live with Yvonne permanently. Or else go off with Bob to spite Louie

I see Sarah Flood (Suzanne) had a baby last week. I didn't know she was pregnant off screen as well. I hope she comes back later this year. Months of Esther moaning about never seeing her grandchild to come no doubt.

Does Niamh ever wear anything that isn't black??! She always looks so frumpy and miserable for a young woman.
There should be a storyline where she wins a makeover or something.

Yes, the boy couldn't even handle Aliens...lightweight

Caoimhe has to be the most annoying character at the moment. I hope she leaves for a while

Can't believe that Eddie in with Decco

Blackie Connors and Rev George Black (Luke & Pete). It's gone very Glenroe in Carrigstown.

They need to have a scene with those two with Louis and Esther next

Has anyone else heard what the deal is with Lucy yet? Have I gone mad or something?

^^
What??!
I was wondering where the Lucy storyline was going but that is absolutely ridiculous!
It doesn't explain her obsession with Dolores either.

No it doesn't. Apparently Lucy

Fair City can never get stories right. This would have worked much better if Harry had had an affair and she was his secret daughter, and her obsession was with family instead of Dolores. But I guess as soon as they put her sleeping with Wayne they couldn't do that. The ending they have for the story sounds like the most p!ss-poor, cobbled-together-at-the-last-minute ending I've seen in a while.

dont know if this is mentioned before or noticed but ex hollyoaks ep gareth phillips is now the series consulant

The Lucy storyline ending seems to have come from nowhere really!

I have Sky Tv.
Is there any way that i could watch Fair City?

They've been like this for a while. They have the potential for a load of really great stories but they never manage to pull it off.

Look at Damien and Suzanne. I always said that the best thing they could have done for that pair was bringing Neassa back pregnant, right after Suzanne lost the baby. Suzanne would have had to deal with the fact that she wants kids but her husband doesn't; the loss of her own baby; and the fact that this one night stand her husband had resulted in a baby. Plus, watching her husband with his baby by another woman would have actually been a genuine catalyst for a character like Suzanne to turn into a husband beater.

Another example: Tommy, Judy, Luke and Neassa. Why isn't Luke Neassa's father? She's clearly Tommy's favourite of his daughters. Him finding out that, after the whole Jo-affair-saga would have been A) fitting and B) a way for the character - who was a likeable character before the Jo saga - to gain some public sympathy back. Imagine him finding out his favourite daughter isn't his, and having to watch her go into business with her real father?

Why do Rté fall short at the final hurdle? It's like they pussy out of doing proper stories because they're afraid of offending even one person. And I wouldn't mind it but the people they're probably afraid of offending - Catholic auld wans - all watch Corrie and EE anyway, and see (and enjoy) much worse than anything FC could throw out.

So the Lucy storyline has ended
What a mess it ended up being! I couldn't stop laughing all through tonight's episode.

On another note, I never knew Harry wasn't Jessica's father. Who did Dolores have an affair with?

Wasn't it Frank, the seedy looking painter/decorator with the dodgy tache?

They haven't killed her off though. A return during Pete and Dolores' wedding perhaps

Frank Monaghan was Jessica's father. I think he was related to Damien and Laura. Here he is his if you can't place him

Ah yes, I remember Frank!
Thanks guys

And yeah I'm sure the Xmas storyline this year will be about Lucy. A character like her always ends up in a dramatic death so my money is on her coming back from Paris and trying to murder Dolores. I bet Wayne will be the one to end up killing Lucy too.

It was so funny! I was watching with my mother, and when Lucy appeared from behind the door she wasn't expecting it and burst into a huge, hearty laugh, which set me off. And then at the end when Lucy was trying to rip up the plane ticket and couldn't... I couldn't stop laughing for about half an hour afterwards. Not to mention Lucy's pathetic grappling! What a terrible end to a terrible storyline!

I'm going to put money on this and say: Fair City will drop this now and it will never be a significant story again. She won't be back for Christmas: FC never do a big Christmas story.

Well, colour me wrong about a Christmas storyline for Fair City!

What's this I'm hearing about

Anyone know anything else?

If true I'd prefer it to be

Thought Carol was fantastic this week, she doesn't have much luck with weddings though does she. Billy sleeping with Tracey on her first wedding day and then Christy/Louie situations. I hope Louie is gone now and Ingrid with him. Bob and Carol to run McCoys and please could they ever bring back Tracey to work there as well.

BiB1: I hope Ingrid leaves some time soon. She's feckin' dreadful. The actress is just rubbish and unlike some of the other bad actors (Caoimhe; Wayne) it isn't 'so bad it's funny' bad, just unjoyable-bad. Louis is ok, but he's shite when he's in a relationship. They need to leave him single for a while, and have himself and Yvonne go on a few lads nights out. They're little friendship is great, and hopefully the writers wouldn't ruin it by making them get together again.
