Starts tonight, anyone else ridiculously excited about it? Just finishing up rewatching to the end of season 3 now and can't wait.

Yes! Fran & Douglas, what was THAT about?!?!?

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 16:07

Vogue Williams, the Irish model and dj, whose married to Spencer from MIC, has the best wardrobe, I watched ‘Spencer, Vogue and Baby too’ last night and I had serious clothes envy, now that woman knows how to dress! Although being a fashion & makeup model then you expect that, I thinkHmm.

High school teachers dress far better!

Really? I work in a high school and the staff room is just a sea of shapeless Monsoon and Fat Face tunics Grin. I love Sharon's style.

Thought this weeks episode was much better. Fran is hilarious and she's been underused this season up to now so was nice to see a bit more of her. Agree the Fran/Douglas sex scene was really funny. I also loved Rob's theatrics when he gets 'juiced' by those kids.

All the teachers I know wear White Stuff/Joules and jolly necklaces! I love Sharon's clothes though.

That sex scene left me feeling sullied, it was so seedy. Really well done though to make it so grubby and unsexy.

I reckon the storyline is heading in the direction that Rob is sick. Night sweats and weight loss? Hmm.

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 20:48

I’m probably basing my judgments of what teachers wear from when I was at school which was in the 80s and 90s!Grin

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 20:55

I think Sharons stuff is quite studenty looking, I’m sure it’s all expensive though. I love she and Robs house, it’s quite interesting, and it’s already been mentioned in this thread, but their house and all the stuff in it does look very expensive, and tbf I was just saying to my mate the other day that almost every drama based in recent times, have the most amazing homes, the set must cost a fortune! There’s no need for it, why can’t they have them live in a street where it’s mixed between bought houses and council houses? It’s very unrealistic that they all seem to be mega rich.

I don’t know much about London prices, I know that houses are very expensive but doesn’t advertising jobs pay a good wage so is it that unrealistic that Sharon & Rob lived where they did? I saw that a pp had written that there’s no way S+R could be able to live in a part of London like that based on their wages, but as I said, I thought advertising paid well? Plus wasn’t Rob an executive in the advertising world?Confused

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 20:56

Do you think Rob is sick or has an addiction to something other than drink, drugs perhaps? He is friends with Dave the druggie after all.

donajimena · 23/01/2019 21:56

scots night sweats and memory loss? I'm thinking its something sinister Sad

EdWinchester · 23/01/2019 22:03

I forgot the memory loss too. I reckon he’s got something sinister.

Encyclo · 23/01/2019 22:06

I agree, rewatching now and he’s definitely evasive with Sharon about the check up he’s had.

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 22:09

God that will be sad if Rob is going to die, and Catastrophe doesn’t really do sad, yes Sharons dad dies but we didn’t really know him well and he was old, it’s different when it’s only someone in their 40s.Sad

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 22:10

Although it is the last season so they want to go out with a bang.

Encyclo · 23/01/2019 22:10

Love Anna the babysitter whenever she shows up 😆

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 22:12

I think the babysitter had a bit of a crush on Rob Smile

Tigresswoods · 23/01/2019 22:13

Anna the babysitter is gold. Where did they find her?

Scotschic · 23/01/2019 22:18

She’s Kelly from Misfits yes? Her brother was in This is England, she’s just like him but with long hair!

MinisterforCheekyFuckery · 24/01/2019 11:16

I reckon the storyline is heading in the direction that Rob is sick. Night sweats and weight loss?

Oh no, I hope not Sad

Blondeshavemorefun · 24/01/2019 14:31

Fab sex scenes against the wall

Tho tmi it’s not great on backs 😂😂

Scotschic · 24/01/2019 16:31

There’s sex scenes in just about every episode, I am definitely turning into a prude in my old age.

mizu · 24/01/2019 21:00

Enjoyed this episode. Sex scene a bit too much though Blush

Auldspinster · 25/01/2019 08:30

Mark Bonnar is from Edinburgh, his brother was in my year at school and we have a few mutual friends although i don't know him personally.

TeachesOfPeaches · 25/01/2019 10:57

Anna the babysitter pleaded guilty to racially aggravated assault on an Asian taxi driver in real life Confused

Cheesymonster · 25/01/2019 13:36

I reckon the storyline is heading in the direction that Rob is sick. Night sweats and weight loss? Hmm.

I was thinking this. Remember when they were joking in the bedroom - after the juice attack maybe? - and he couldn't think of the word he wanted, there was a pause and Sharon gave him a worried look... I think there will be a serious illness storyline.

CreakyBlinder · 25/01/2019 16:32

Isn't this the last series though? And aren't they fairly short series'? I don't know when they'd fit a big new storyline in. Could be totally wrong though!

Delatron · 25/01/2019 17:49

I was hoping that! We’re already a few episodes in...

Would be too horrible for them to end the series with Rob being seriously ill. Surely!
