Long Way Down - Eve

23 replies

TwoIfBySea · 02/12/2007 21:48

Didn't take her long to drive a wedge between the two of them. I think this whole thing of her joining them has spoiled the atmosphere of this series, it is no longer boys own adventures.

Thumb print all over him!

Poor Charley.

Anyone else care to discuss?

yes was just thinking to myself "why is she getting on my tits i wonder?"

MrsLynetteScavo · 02/12/2007 21:49

I totally agree. I don't think she should have gone.(Leave the boys to thier own games) Ewan is obviously very in love with her.

Tutter · 02/12/2007 21:49

she only stayed for a few days though didn't she

PestohohohoMonster · 02/12/2007 21:49

I thought it was a very very bad idea, right from the outset. I think she had a touch of the green-eyed monster tbh.

TwoIfBySea · 02/12/2007 21:50

I wondered if she was there to stop Ewan bringing home any more orphans?

charley handled it well.

Tutter · 02/12/2007 21:51

think charley seems lovely

PestohohohoMonster · 02/12/2007 21:52

I like his hair

Tutter · 02/12/2007 21:52

hmm am not sure about zorro-esque facial hair

PestohohohoMonster · 02/12/2007 21:55

I could live with it

TwoIfBySea · 02/12/2007 22:08

See she wants in on the next one for longer. That'll put paid to that one then! Shame really.

How come Ewan saw him dad, mum & Eve whilst on his travels, yet Charlie had to wait 3 months to see his wife & kids?

Does Ewan & eve have any kiddies? I missed most of this series as I'm not a big watcher of TV but caught an episode a few weeks ago in my sister's house & have been trying to remember & watch them!!

Did you see Eve's look of pure disinterest when Ewan's mum joined them?

MrsLynetteScavo · 02/12/2007 22:21

They have at atleast 2 girls.

PeachesMcLeanEatsSprouts · 02/12/2007 22:25

Didn't Charlie's wife have pneumonia just before they set off? She struck me as very strong and pragmatic. Eve seems a bit odd. She can't ride a motorbike for a start.

CountessDracula · 02/12/2007 22:27

Saw this for first time tonight

Who is that Charley then?
What a PSEUD he seems. And so vacuous.
dh & I were pissing ourselves

"ooh it's just so, like, amazing"
hmm thanks for that insight for the 10th time in 3 minutes....

minko · 03/12/2007 10:06

Ewan and Eve have 2 girls of their own and a Mongolian adopted daughter.

I bet Charlie was delighted if he read in a Times interview with Ewan on Saturday that he comes across a bit useless, showing off to the camera and making the most of his famous friend! His 'oh it's beeuudifull, amazing...' blah did TV deals from the series! What does he do anyway?

HoHoHotcrossbunny · 03/12/2007 10:15

I love Charlie and was so sad for him when Eve came along. I wouldn't dream of gatecrashing my dhs 'boys own' adventure. Think of something yourself next time!

MrsBoo · 03/12/2007 10:23

Charlie is an actor, I think he is great. I was so gutted for him when Eve turned up. Reminded me of my DH and one of his friends, who invites him out for a pint, and when DH turns up , his friend's DP is there! FFS, let the boys have a night out on their own.

orangina · 03/12/2007 10:23

apparently ewan hasn't always managed to keep his pecker in his pants, has had a number of affairs etc. No wonder eve wanted to keep an eye on him (though I agree, a boys trip is a boys trip...)

wintera · 03/12/2007 21:01

I have never heard any real proof that Ewan has had affairs at all. That whole Nicole Kidman thing was a load of bollocks. She was having it off with someone else on the set of Moulin Rouge but everyone thought it was Ewan. Thats what i heard anyway.

poppy34 · 03/12/2007 21:06

not sure if true or not re ewan (easy thing to say about someone good looking adn in the public eye). All I know is that why on earth would you gate crash a lads trip especially if you patently couldn't ride a motorbike properly?

TwoIfBySea · 03/12/2007 21:24

I noticed in the last one, when Ewan's dad surprised him (and actually could ride a bike - could it not have been his dad or brother instead of her as they wouldn't have been such a liability) that Eve who was also there didn't look too impressed.

Methinks she doesn't get on so well with his family perhaps? Oh god, hark at me, I'll be buying Heat next!

It was like if Jeremy Clarkson's or Hamster's wives/partners turned up on Top Gear talking about cars. Used to think Ewan was lovely but he is a bit of a plank, prefer Charley now - and his wife seems more normal!

hmmm... why did her turning up make me think of that bit from Spinal Tap where it's obvious the singer's wife and the guitarist hate each other
