😂stop!
I really shouldn't laugh but I can't stand Paul

I am not keen either but this means a vacancy for yet another dad

zanahoria · 03/05/2023 14:33

Not a spoiler but the laws of soap definitely rule that Paul has to die on Gemma's wedding day, does that have a date yet?

eggandonion · 03/05/2023 15:00

Would the bishop not be able to get Paul put in a special private place for people with chronic conditions? Billy and Summer and Gemma could visit occasionally and then forget Paul ever existed. Until his child appears in a few years...
My dna journey would be interesting . It could sort out the Barlow platt connors relationship chart.

eggandonion · 03/05/2023 15:01

The wedding must be soon if debbie has a cancellation that she can't flog.

The Bishop used to object to Billy even having a boyfriend but nobody at his church seems to bat an eyelid who he moves in with now.

I also suspect that poor old Paul will be dead sooner than later. He is involved with dodgy types and keeps nicking cars even though he is not fit to drive.

Johhny had MS then fell down the sewer. Seb had HiV then was jumped by goth bashers. There is definitely a pattern.

Let's hope so

It's becoming tedious and embarrassing how the storyline is panning out

Mighty sick of Billy and his job title which doesn't quite add up to his lifestyle

eddiemairswife · 03/05/2023 17:53

Does Billy hold any regular Sunday services? The bishop barred him from living in a clergy house because he was in a same-sex relationship .I sha'n't be sorry to see the back of Paul .

AutumnCrow · 03/05/2023 19:13

I think the writers have turned Paul into a very tedious character. I mean, all this stuff about paying for Gemma's dreary fairytale wedding and the looks of angst on his face over it all - oh give over.

This means the identical looks of angst on his face over having his diagnosis have limited impact. Well, possibly none tbh. Oh look, there's Paul doing his face. Oh here we go again, Paul's got his face on.

And I agree he'll end up driving a Ford Cosgrove off a viaduct or something.

eggandonion · 03/05/2023 19:16

I hope he doesn't join Robert leo leos dad and all the other unburied corpses.

Totally agree
" Paul's got his face on"
Yep
That look he does where he goes cross eyed looking down his huge nose irritates the fuck out of me.
He will drive off the viaduct doing that face 😂

MillicentTrilbyHiggins · 03/05/2023 20:07

Billy is an archdeacon isn't he? He therefore wouldn't have a church of his own to do a regular service from. That said he didn't seem to do one before his promotion either.

Google seems to suggest he'd be earning £36-£37k

woodhill · 03/05/2023 20:09

Paul reminds me of the gruffalo and I know what you mean about that face

EachandEveryone · 03/05/2023 20:11

Same as what gemmas UC would be worth if someone would only show her how to claim

So Paul's now got gin martini on his breath. Lame.

I don’t get the relationship between Paul and Dee Dee. They’ve only know each other a couple of months yet act as if they’ve been bff’s for years.

Pseudonamed · 03/05/2023 20:43

I hate DeeDee. She is a dreadful actress.

Deadringer · 03/05/2023 21:01

I love Dee Dee (unlike the rest of her family) but I don't get her friendship with Paul either.

thenightsky · 03/05/2023 21:23

What happened to Summer's job as PA to Carla??

lollipoprainbow · 03/05/2023 21:30

Why do they insist on babying summer not letting her get a job ffs !!

Yes he was promoted despite being found guilty of assault, becoming a heroin addict and continually breaking church guidance on sexual relations.

I wish they had not mixed up this bullshit wedding with the Gemma's other money worries.

Paul does look deader every episode although hard to say who would come off worse in a showdown between him and Damon, they are both pretty pathetic at acting the hard man. They could have a fight like the one in Bridget Jones.

I also thought that Summer worked for Carla.
