As much as I get tired of Tina's bitching/complaining and being generally gobby - I'm looking forward to her taking on Kirsty! Can't stand Kirsty - she's been devious from the very start and now that she's kicking the crap out of Tyrone, I say "go for it, Tina!!"

Paul laughed that Eileen and Sean shelled out a whack of cash to replace a hideous vase that Paul imposed on them in the first place? What a jackass.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Sean living now? Eileen's commentary about the house being both hers and Paul's now seems odd, given that Paul still has the place he lived in with his dead wife and presumably hasn't paid a dime to support Eileen.
The concept of Tracy being seductive enough to woo a man theoretically so much younger than her is repulsive, despite the fact that he's a complete tosser who deserves worse.
It's true that some people move on very quickly after a bereavement, needing companionship and love with a new partner so I'm not making a judgement on them. But either Paul is meant to be crass or the writing is crass - I think it's the latter. If Eileen insists on sticking with him, can he at least be elsewhere most of the time? As a couple, they make me feel queasy.
ReplyDeleteFor a supposedly brave fireman, he's a helluva girlie whiner!
