None of this Shirley and Max stuff, it's weird. Shirley should become best mates with Carol. Both grandmothers, had children young, weren't exactly good mums (though got better as mums with age) and both in their early 50s. They are also very tough women and played by good actresses. We saw the friendship between Bianca and Kat, so what about Shirley and Carol?

I'm surprised we haven't had many Shirley/Carol scenes over the years, I think they could have potential to become good friends. Carol would bring out Shirley's nicer side and Shirley would bring out Carol's fun side. (she must have one). Both of them seem to be lacking friendships on the square, I think every character needs a few strong friendships outside of their family groups and the actresses would work very well together.

I like the idea of Shirley and Carol actually, Carol desperately needs someone away from her family to mix with.

I agree. I think both Shirley and Carol need someone a way from their families and I would like to see a friendship develop between them.

They're both miserable characters haha. But yeah it would be nice for Carol to get a friend.

They can bond over the fact that 4 guys got them pregnant each.

I will remind you of that.

Carol is suffering breast cancer and is having to have a dual mastectomy but coped with Billie's death. Shirley has had to cope with sh*t for all her life but still has a hard, iron exterior. They are remarkably tough women and they should become best friends.
