Isn't he! I actually had a dream about him last night Blush

GingerAndTheBiscuits · 19/06/2020 14:38

He is the one redeeming feature in the stream of absolute shite that White Lines was. And even he isn’t likeable by the end.

girlcrushonvillanelle · 19/06/2020 14:39

No!! Don't ruin it for me!

It's shite and yes he is the only good thing but I only have about 4 episodes left.

He is dreamy. DP was watching the series a little while ago, not usually my cup of tea but I started watching from about episode 3 and was hooked, I also had a dream about him 🤣

GingerAndTheBiscuits · 19/06/2020 14:45

Sorry! Lips are sealed!

TheDogsMother · 19/06/2020 14:49

He's gorgeous but don't say any more as I'm only half way through. I know some of the series is a bit clunky but I'm really enjoying it. You won't get me standing by any over sized speakers any time soon though Shock

wizzbangfizz · 19/06/2020 14:50

Best thing about a horribly acted series - I was embarrassed for Lawrence fox

imsooverthisdrama · 19/06/2020 14:57

It's very bizarre , but yes I agree only watching it for boxer .Grin

The80sweregreat · 19/06/2020 15:02

Boxer is hot , but it's not holding my attention that much.

HonneyBea · 19/06/2020 15:03

He is ver ver hot! Mind you, Marcus is also quite hot but in a cheeky chappy kind of way!

onedayinthefuture · 19/06/2020 15:05

Boxer is hot and I love his car!

girlcrushonvillanelle · 19/06/2020 15:05

Nope, not keen on Marcus, and I can't look at Oriel without thinking of David Tennent.

Boxer is quite camp but also quite hot haha.

I really enjoyed White Lines. Just don't expect anything Oscar-worthy. It's a very easy watch with a light hearted storyline. I think they'll probably do another series based on how it ended... (No spoilers).

On another note, has anyone else been clubbing in Ibiza? The researchers obviously haven't. The club scenes were appalling.. and don't get me started on the afterparties! Everyone looked way too fresh. Not like the afterparties I used to go to Grin

onedayinthefuture · 19/06/2020 15:14

@LolaLollypop agreed the club scene is definitely not authentic and the soundtrack could have been so much better. Seem to be concentrating more on the Manchester scene.

TeaAndHobnob · 19/06/2020 15:15

No but I cringed for whatsherface off her tits ringing her daughter Shock

I mean why did no one take her phone off her! Throw it in the pool, anything! Do NOT ring your family when you've had a pill 😂

Yes! They could be brothers.
Iamblossom · 19/06/2020 19:10

Yes yes yes yes and yes.

Even DH gets why I think he is utterly gorgeous.

Now firmly on the top of my allowed list.

BarefootHippieChick · 19/06/2020 19:14

He is rather tasty!! I'm glad he didn't end up with the main female at the end because quite frankly she was a nutter.

I really enjoyed the series but there were a few scenes that were completely unrealistic but obviously just written in because otherwise the whole series wouldn't have worked.

LordEmsworth · 19/06/2020 19:35

@GingerAndTheBiscuits I am with you 100%!

Most irritating thing? All these English people moved to Spain over 2 decades ago and apparently haven't learnt a word of Spanish. How is that possible? You must pick up a bit, surely?!

The80sweregreat · 19/06/2020 19:41

I lived in Spain for two years and learnt a bit of Spanish. I could understand a lot by the end of it, but was useless at speaking it! Dh was very good as were the kids but mine was ' pidgeon poor' all the way along. I even had lessons and still struggled.
Terrible really!

Iloveacurry · 19/06/2020 19:44

Yes I would!

EnterNight · 19/06/2020 20:37

I have found my people.

Spent most of the last two episodes shouting 'ohhh, Boxer' as I felt more and more sorry for him.
Lozza Fox's Manc accent was terrible and Daniel Mays was as hateful as ever. Cant think of anything I've watched with Daniel Mays where I didn't absolutely hate his character.

As for Axel Collins, odious little pratt that I'd have happily murdered myself.

EnterNight · 19/06/2020 20:37

Oh, and anyone else see Oriol as a mix of Richard Hammond and David Tennant?

The80sweregreat · 19/06/2020 20:43

Daniel Mays is very typecast. He always seems to play horrible loud characters.

KeepWashingThoseHands · 19/06/2020 20:46

There's a queue OP. Get in line!
