Just seeing Linda Hamilton, Michael biehn who played Kyle Reese from terminator one and the Robert Patrick actor who played the terminator in terminator 2 all coming to Dublin comic con in August. Spike from Buffy there too.

Pretty impressive line up especially Linda Hamilton. So just putting that out there for any terminator fans.

I recall watching tfl inspections waiting on people who were persistent offenders a few years ago on that channel five documentary and I wondered was that more for the show?

Do they actually take note of persistent offenders like tail gaters and those using cards inappropriately and set up stings for them ?

I recall watching an episode where the state prosecutors son was caught, does anybody recall this ?

I'm gay male myself so obviously not homophobic but I'm working in a large building site in Dublin predominantly men. And I'm surprised at the massive amount of homophobia I hear amongst young men in 2023. I was chatting to one 30 year old today who is otherwise sound that it makes you much less of a man etc. He'd no idea I'm gay.

Last week I heard it too from other blokes using gay slurs etc and basically saying that gay men weren't real men. In 2023, I'm pretty surprised over this level of homophobia. What's everybodys thoughts?

In season 1, Bree gets rebuked by prostitute Maisy Gibbons for failing to support her during her financial hard times. Bree then says she didn't want to say anything as not to embarrass her and Maisy says that was the wrong approach.

Consequently bree then tries to address Gaby's financial problems that were similar and Gaby tells her off. So it's like a case that you are dammed if you do, dammed if you don't. I don't understand what message the writers were trying to give in that episode, it was like a totally contradictory message.

Remember in season 1 the scavos befriended Ailsa and Dennis and Dennis kept making snide remarks to Lynette and Lynette rebuked him.

He then left his wife and Ailsa blamed Lynette. I thought Lynette was only sticking up for Ailsa so I think Ailsa's anger was very misplaced.

I must admit though the scene in the classroom with Lynette, Ailsa and the daughter where she confronts Lynette and the daughter translates was hilarious though.

Especially when the daughter said " emotional, financial, sexual " and Lynette said to Ailsa can we not do this in front of her and she said "now you are telling me how to raise my daughter?" 😄 😄

She was a pretty big film star in the 60s and was nominated it for Oscars etc.

I don't mean to sound bad but I would never have thought to look at Phyllis that she was a beauty in her prime. I know she was 70 odd when she joined but she just looked very different to her younger self.

I can't recall the ep but isn't there an episode in season 1 where she falls into aload of food at a party?

In season 1 he suspected she was having an affair so he got his mother to come stay. He was a man of the world and was very clued in so why wouldn't he have done the normal thing and just hired a private eye to follow her?

There is something about her, she has that old school classic beauty that would make me imagine her as a Bond girl.
