Michelle "Falling off your chair (drunk) is highly underrated" Maria "Yeah, especially if someone else is paying"
David "Sarah! it's Jason Bourne for you!"

Eva "Fasten your seatbelts, ladies, it's gonna be a bumpy night"
Rosie "How do I look?" Sally "Like a porn star" Rosie "Oh thanks Mum!!"

Getting old fast...the dumbing down of Rosie..it's off the charts. Did she have a lobotomy while she was away?
ReplyDeleteAnd remember she was so clever that Sally sent her to a private school... Must say I do find some of her lines very funny 😄
ReplyDeleteSally sent her to a private school not so much because she was clever, but because Sally believed it might make her so. Her teachers, let us not forget, used to refer to her as 'Dozy Plebster'.
ReplyDeleteThat's true but Rosie now seems completely stupid to the point where you might think she was mentally challenged. Rosie wasn't bright but I never thought she was handicapped back then. The writing is going over the line of comedy.
DeleteThe writers must be fans of horror movies,first there's the 'Saw'torture scenes in the basement with Andy and Phelan[which is tedious to watch]and at Eva's hen party there was the ode to the prom scene from 'Carrie' with Maria getting soaked in chocolate milk [fortunately it wasn't pig's blood]as a 'joke' by Eva and Toyah.
ReplyDeleteTo her credit Leanne didn't like their 'joke'.
I felt a little sorry for Maria being humiliated as neither Eva or Toyah are not much better,Eva lying that she's pregnant and greedily to destroy Underworlds and Toyah being a hyporcrite as she too had an affair with Peter while married!
If Toyah is so happy with Peter,she should get over her grudge of Maria sleeping with her Toyah's lecturer boyfriend John years ago[the guy was a creep!].
Well said Anon. For all her checkered history, Maria didn't deserve the Carrie punishment. Toyah is a hypocrite and Eva's treatment of the Connors is way over the top. Kate and Jenny don't even know about Aidan's affair with Maria ðŸ˜
ReplyDeleteRosie seemed smart when she was tricking the ex friends of Gemma. I think she is not dumb but takes things very literally, maybe??
