My other thread is pretty miserable. So I wanted something light-hearted. And this new technician at the Lyell centre meow 😁😍 I mean jack is gorgeous. But look those eyes and that voice .....

God, I can't bear him! I'm at the point where it's putting me off watching it, I hope they write him out after this series 😡

Scaredofmynipple · 24/01/2023 21:52

Yeah I know some bits are very cliche. But he's just so cute!

Jack is gorgeous? Your taste is questionable, I think 😁

stockpilingallthecheese · 24/01/2023 21:57

Jack is my weird crush apart from the double denim, but can't agree on Velvy!! Can't see past the voice.

Bluelightbaby · 24/01/2023 22:03

Urgh Velvie but jack is lush !

Hoppinggreen · 24/01/2023 22:04

Nope, just nope and Jack looks like a great big Capybara

80smercedes · 24/01/2023 22:05

I have to agree, Velvy is a beautiful man!

Theluggage15 · 24/01/2023 22:06

Ugh. Both Jack and Velvey are terrible. This show needs putting out of its misery, the acting is appalling and the storylines are dire.

Pottedpalm · 24/01/2023 22:17

I find him very irritating.. the stilted speech… weird pauses… most annoying!
The acting this series is even worse than last. Weak storylines and unbelievable plots.

He is from a totally different culture (orthodox jew) and English isn't his first language hence stilted speech. His other worldliness is cute but I preferred him with his prayer locks.

His eyes have completely changed shape. I reckon he's had some work done, but it hasn't remotely improved his appearance. I'd ask for a refund in his shoes.

Thanks for explaining.. 😏 I understand that he is trying to act that part, but he’s doing it rather poorly in my opinion.

Hellocatshome · 24/01/2023 23:20

God no, neither he or Jack do anything for me and his character is completely pointless. I mean how do you get a job like his when you obviously haven't got the first clue about anything.

Jux · 24/01/2023 23:23

Instopped watching SW some years ago, but dh has decided he wants to see this new series so I half watch.

It's really really gone down the drain. The scripts are APPALLING, most of the acting is pretty dire, and the stories predictable,

AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL

Jux · 24/01/2023 23:26

I missed Clarissa; dh tells me she's no longer at the Lyell. I thought she and Jack were an unseparable team? What happened?

She left a few series ago. Jack's now shagging Nikki who is more annoying than ever. And spending too much time at the gym, so his neck is now the same width as his head and it's not a good look. A few seasons ago he was hotter.

MarmiteWine · 25/01/2023 00:05

Oh goodness, no! Bring back Harry!

StoneofDestiny · 25/01/2023 00:23

Crikey - your TV needs adjusting.

Bibbetybobbity · 25/01/2023 00:28

Oh nooooo. His acting is truly awful. How did he get the job??!!! The programme is like a spoof now…

Oh no now you've said it I'll never be able to unsee it.

BeardieWeirdie · 25/01/2023 02:35

I’m staggered that Velvie has a MN fan club: he’s incredibly annoying and, to me, not remotely attractive. I don’t understand why he has walked out on his family - has that been explained?

chococherrychoochoo · 25/01/2023 03:33

The Velvy actor is not stereotypically handsome.

Scaredofmynipple · 25/01/2023 09:00

Ha ha some strong opinions. Yes sadly the plotlines have gone AWOL! I like him because he isn't traditionally attractive. And he did look better with his prayer locks. Now you say it maybe he has had work done be just looks different (jack) and I couldn't work out why. Yes Nikki is as insufferable as normal 😂. Clarissa was a gem!
