We are back for Thursdays episode of Ireland's wacky soap Fair City on RTE 1. In tonight's episode Tommy Dillon is found unconscious in "The Station" by Neasa. Neasa calls the emergency services who arrive quickly. Not long after they arrive Caoimhe Dillon is there also. As young loves dream Luke and Judith get ready to leave Carrickstown for good, Caoimhe stops them in there tracks to tell Judith what has happened to her father. Judith gets into the taxi with her daughter and go to the hospital leaving Luke standing there like a tosser (Little do they know it was Luke that injured Tommy in a fight from last nights episode).

Meanwhile baldy Paul Brennan is having fun playing video games with his long lost son Callum. Hes having so much fun that he does not hear his phone when his daughter Rachel calls him because she forgot her school project and could fail her test. Anyway Niamh ends up having to collect her project and is not too happy when she finds Paul sitting at home playing video games with Callum. She communicates this to Paul like always.

More comedy ensues in Carrickstown when Yvonne give Carol her weekly child maintenance in coins. Carol spends a long time counting her coins with Farrell having a good laugh (It turns out his name is Anthony).

Back at the hospital The Dillon family are very anxious and worried about Tommy with a guilty looking Luke. Judith oddly acts like a doctor in this scene telling her daughters that Tommy has received serious injuries and could end up paralysed.

Here we are back with a bang for Ireland's wacky soap Fair City on RTE 1. We start off in Carrigstown with poor old Tommy Dillon sleeping rough out in the local park after a nights drinking session (Ah yes good old Knacker Drinking, that brings back memories of my teens). Anyway Damien and goodie two shoes Pete Ferguson come across him. Pete more or less tells him to get his act together while Damien looks at him in disgust and does not seem bodered.

Sergeant Deegan decides to keep his mouth shut over Ama being an illegal but tells her to be careful as somebody else could easily report her. It was not a good day for poor old Ama as her job was terminated by Bob from pressure by Deegan.

Carol gets one up on Yvonne Doyle when creepy Farrell (What Is His First Name Fair City?) tells Yvonne he no longer wants to work for her due to a conflict of interests and tells Carol that Yvonne has been keeping her child support to use for her business. With this information Carol with advice from creepy Farrell demands the money she is owed with 10% interest. She has no choice but to agree and is forced to say sorry. Ten seconds later there slagging each other off and hurling insults.

Neasa decides to shut "The Station" early and decides she no longer wants to run it because of her mothers affair with her uncle. She pays a visit to her uncle Luke to inform him of her decision.

Niamh tells baldy Paul that he needs to start acting like a father to Callum instead of his mate. When Callum calls over, Paul tries acting like a father and gives him a lecture about safe sex telling Callum to learn from his mistakes. Callum takes this the wrong way and asks Paul if he is a mistake than storms off like he usually does. They end up meeting up later for a father and son chat to sort things out. Everything is now rosy between father and son. (We Love A Happy Ending).

Drunk Tommy ends up running into his brother Luke at "The Station" which is closed when Neasa shut it earlier. They have some boring exchange of words at the top of the stairs about ugly Judith when all of a sudden like good brothers they start fighting. Luke ends up pushing Tommy down the stairs and is seriously hurt. Tommy asks for help but Luke tells him to drink more alcohol at the bar and leaves. It looks like the whole thing was recorded as Fair City ends with a recording shot from a security camera. Things are not looking good for Luke.

Fair City TV Review 02/05/13

Here we are back for Thursdays wacky Irish soap Fair City on RTE 1. It seems Carol now works in Leos Taxi office and is not happy when one of her enemies Farrell shows up to do some legal work for Leo. Farrell seems to have a soft spot for Carol and tells her he does not agree with Yvonne's treatment of her lately. They bury the hatchet somewhat and Farrell ends up doing Carols job when Carol needs to leave the office for awhile.

Callum starts his new job at baldy Paul's garage but does not seem to take instruction's from Ray very well. He ends up storming off in  a huff. Later baldy Paul convinces Callum to give the garage another chance.

Amas bag gets stolen in the Hungry Pig with her precious rosary beads but refuses to go the police. Garda "I Use To Be Important" Deegan gets suspicious as to why she will not report the crime. You see Ama is an illegal immigrant and is afraid she will be caught and deported.

Meanwhile Tommy Dillon gets angry when he learns Pete and Luke have pitched for work on Luke's next project and threatens to quit. He tells them to choose between him or the job but when Damien and Pete choose the job over Tommy, Tommy storms off in a huff.

Here we are back for Tuesdays episode of Ireland's wacky soap Fair City on RTE 1. Tonight's episode mainly focuses on baldy Paul and his long lost son Callum. Paul has invited  Callum to his daughters Ruth's birthday party. Paul tells Niamh that he plans to introduce Callum to all the family. Niamh does not look happy but theres nothing she can do. As the party gets started, Callum seems to be mixing well with Paul's family and everything seems great. Callum is introduced to Caz and Bella Doyle. Paul makes a boring speech welcoming Callum to the family. Niamh does not seem pleased and reminds Paul that its Ruth's party.

Meanwhile the Bishop family are making some enquires about Callum to Charlotte. Some champagne and mp3 players are gone missing. Deco seems mad that Callum and Charlotte were kissing in the Lock Up (Shed) while Zumo Seems only worried about the mp3 players. Hard lad Father Paddy tells his sons they need to sort this out.

Back at the Brennan house everything is Rosy until theres a knock on the door. As Rachel opens the door the Bishop brothers come busting in. Deco says he wants Callum outside now in a loud voice. An argument starts between the two families with insults flying. Vivieann and Ray take sides with Deco and Zumo. Deco accuses Callum of stealing from the lock up and being all over Charlotte (At this point Caz chimes in and says "Hes his fathers son alright". I thought this was funny) in front of the whole Brennan family and friends. As things get heated an angry Vivieann retreats with her family (You see shes the head of the family). Everybody ends up leaving Ruth's party and Niamh says its ruined. Niamh blames Callum and tells him to get out but baldy Paul is having none of it. He tells Niamh that Callum is his son and not to make him choose between Callum and her.

Meanwhile Dermot and Jo's secret relationship is finally rumbled when Orla invites herself in to talk about the Brennan gossip. As she waffles on she hears a phone going off and finds Dermot behind the coach. To make a long story short she agrees to keep the news quiet.

Here I am back for Sundays review of Ireland's wacky soap Fair City on RTE 1. We start off with Young's love dream Luke Dillon and his brothers wife Judith walking together through Carrigstown in a show of defiance to show everybody they are a couple now and they have nothing to be ashamed of. Nosey Esther sees the couple and says its disgusting seeing them like that, its incest. (Yes Esther, you do know its only incest if there blood related.) Anyway they decide to head to McCoys pub to promote there new relationship although Judith is a bit apprehensive but is talked into by her hunk Luke. As they go into McCoys, Tommy is in the pub with Pete talking about football when they see couple. Tommy storms out of the pub when he sees them.

Meanwhile baldy Paul is all excited about going to the car auction with his long lost son Callum. Niamh is not happy but puts on a brave face. Callum arrives at the house were they talk about there mutual love of cars and Callums Joyriding past. (Hes a lovely fella really I swear.) Later they decide to go for a drive in one of the cars in Paul's garage when they get a puncture. (I hate when that happens.) As there changing the tyre local thug Deco Bishop shows up giving them abuse and beeping his horn. Callum tells Paul he will handle it and squares up to Deco were they both insult each other. Callum cant control his anger and picks up a wheel brace off the ground with the intention of hitting Deco. Baldy Paul steps in and tells Callum hes a bold boy. Callum tells Paul he cant start telling him what to do and storms off in  a huff. Paul ends up asking the man who was giving him abuse two minutes ago Deco to help him change the tyre. Deco says Callum is rougher than he looks and goes to change Paul's tyre.(He sure is Deco when hes coming at you with a wheel brace.)

Dermot Fahy and Jo are still pretending that they are not back together. Dermot pretends hes sick so he can stay in the house and have a romantic night with Jo. (God this is stupid.) Anyway Orla calls around with some wine and a DVD as she believes Jo will be on her own and Dermot is just there because hes sick (Silly Girl if she believes that).

Callum goes off with Charlotte Bishop to the Bishops dodgy shed to drink some alcohol. When they begin to kiss Charlotte's brother Deco shows up. Deco and Callum shout and trade insults yet again. Callum ends up leaving with some items he stole from the Bishops shed in his bag.

Paddy is happy to see Ray and Vivienne Bishops relationship turning sour when Vivienne finds out Ray lied to her about the Ruth's party. However Ray explains later to Vivienne that he only lied to her because of the tension between her and Paul. He invites Vivienne again and she accepts.

Fair City TV Review 25/04/13

I am back for the Thursday review of Ireland's favourite wacky soap Fair City on RTE 1. In today's episode we see bald Paul Brennan attempt to get closer to his long lost son Callum who awakes in Paul's house after last Nights drinking session. Niamh is still not happy with Callums presence which causes tension between Niamh and Paul. Baldy Paul however admits to Callum that he was hoping the paternity test was negative but now that he knows that Callum is his flesh and blood, he is proud to call him his son. Callum seems happy with baldies words but in soap land theres never a happy ending and I'm sure theres trouble ahead for these two.

The Dillon's are still at war with each other with Judith phoning her only son Zach to tell him the dirty deeds she has been up too with his uncle Luke. Not surprisingly Zack hangs up on his Mama. Later in the episode Caoimhe catches her loving mother and Luke together in the surgery. After some screaming from Caoimhe she gives her Mother an ultimation, its a choice between Caoimhe and her siblings or Luke. Judith chooses her children and Luke gets dumped for the 20th time (Poor Luke). However later on in McCoy's pub Judith changes her mind again and decides to choose Luke. Poor Luke yet again proves that he really is a door mat. Caoimhe comes into McCoys and sees the two love birds together and after some more screaming tells her mother she wants nothing more to do with her. Local scumbag Deco Bishop gets involved and offers Caoimhe some moral support escorting her from the pub. Something tells me that Deco has impure thoughts going on on his head but I could be wrong, maybe he is Mother Teresa.

Also in this episode Ray tells Paul he would like to invite Vivienne to go with him to Ruth's party. Paul with his evil voice advises Ray not to bring Vivienne Bishop to the party. Meanwhile Paddy Bishop is still watching Ray and no doubt is planning something sinister.

Nothing too exciting happening in Carrigstown tonight.

Fair City TV Review 24/04/13

Tonight I decided to watch Irelands favourite wacky soap opera Fair City on RTE 1. The programme started off with the ongoing and annoying love triangle between Judith Dillion, Tommy Dillion and his brother Luke. Judith and Tommys hot daughters Neasa and Caoimhe just found out that there uncle Luke and mother Judith were having an affair after there drunk father spilled the beans. With there squeaky D4 accents (There suppose to be from Kilkenny) they express there anger at there mother by screaming non stop about how bold she is for cheating on there father. However Luke tells them that Tommy gave them the "OK" to have the affair. With this news they storm out of the house.

Next we see bald Paul Brennan standing in his sitting room holding the results of the paternity test to find out if angry Callum his son. You see Callum was conceived after 1994 USA World Cup Match between Ireland and Italy were Paul supposedly had sex with Callums mother. Paul opens the results and we find out that indeed Paul is the father. Pauls wife Niamh is not too happy at the news and Rachel (Callums new baby sister) is the only one who seems pleased with the news. As you do in Fair City when your angry Callum storms out of the house. Rachel tries to run after him but Paul tells her to go up up to her room. As Paul and Niamh argue Rachel sneaks out of the house to look for her long lost brother who she finds at the pub. Callum ask Rachel for some money so he can get drunk as a skunk and she happily gives him the money.

Meanwhile we head back to the Dillion Clan were Judith goes to the "The Station" to try and make amends with her daughters but is more or less told to get lost.

Rachel decides to go back home and tells Paul that she found Callum and reveals that she seen him near the "The Station". Paul decides to look for Callum and finds him passed out from too many pints at "The Station". Paul ends up bringing him back to his place to sleep off the drink.

Back to the Dillons were Tommy and Luke goad each other in a very boring exchange. Judith returns home and ends up kicking both men out of the house.

In this episode we also get to see evil Paddy Bishop stalk poor old Ray who has romantic thoughts for Paddys ex wife Vivienne.

Fair City is always a barrel of laughs for the wrong reasons.
