Haha yes, he probably did

Aww at Karen and Mandip being at Claire's hen do.

I hope Mandip filled them in about the state of the show.

They're all well out of it now, good for them.

Adorable

Oh, I don't think Brendan had anything to learn about being seductive.

Ste owns the eyelash flutter though

Morning

What do we think was Brendan's main move? Besides tripping people up and stroking their face.

Hmm, I'm not sure. I think it's a combination of things: staring at their lips. Standing really close. Saying their name softly, privately

With little Barry it was a bit of eye contact during the evening and then a bloody great snog. With little Pip it was buying him a drink and listening to him talk about shoes. With Walker he didn't need to do any seducing. With JP it was mutual drinking and mutual rebound, no seducing. With Noah it was flattery and preying on his weakness and stupidity.

With Ste there were all sorts of elements. He's the only one Brendan intended to be more than a one off so it was more careful. He played the long game.

I think towards the end he forgot about seducing him because he was just so in love He stopped plotting and scheming. Not that he wasn't still deliciously seductive in his own natural way.

It's basically canon that the person that Pip reminded him of was Ste, yes?

Of course. It wasn't the fact that Pip was talking about lining his shoes up that reminded Brendan of Ste, it was the fact that he was chattering away, a bit nervous, a bit funny.

When I saw Pip in a play the other week, he was very pretty and twinky in the flesh. More Ste-ish than he looked on HO.

It's always to do with Ste and Brendan

I never really go for blonds, me. But they cast all the Ste clones well. Especially Sean.

Evening

Yay the Moet is back

Hopefully he's going to be working in the UK

Working is good for him. I'm excited to find out what it is (unless it's Claire who got a job. He didn't specify.)

Oh I never thought of that

*puts the champagne back in the fridge*

I hope it's for Emmett, as much as I want Claire to get work too

Me too.

I want to see his lovely face on my screen again

Embo's in Dublin.

He's gone to the bridge to cry

Beard game strong

The soights. His soights.

Whatever the pleasure

If he has got a new job, could it be something to do with him in London yesterday?

I hope Emmett's not going to be doing any fighting
