SHAMELESS: Can someone help me with a few questions, please!

[notnowbernard]

Why did Carl split up with Maxine?

WHat happened to Karen?

And Mimi and that boy - what happened? Have missed 2 weeks worth!

Oh and do know Joe beat up shop man to make him think Padyy M was going to kill him if they didn't pay the money, then offered to buy the shop so they could run away

Yes, Karen is technically Frank's step-daughter (they once shagged - euch!)

Sheila now in Oz with the twins, Nigel and Delia - Frank's DC

Which daughter? Fiona was in the 1st few series ('head' of the family typw who looked after them all)

Debbie, who took over role, went into the Forces (I think)

Debbie didn't even know there was another daughter, so how many dcs has he??

Frank has 9 kids Fiona (who left with Steve), Lip (at uni), Ian, Carl, Debbie (in the Army), Liam and Stella, I think he is not Ians real Dad, with Monica and twins Nigel and Delia with Sheila.

Karen is Sheila's daughter.

Mickey is my fav character though.

Please can you help my DH as I don't really follow Shameless?

What happened to Mandy? I don't think it has been mentioned this series and although he watched last series he can't remember.

Thanks very much

MAndy died in a gas explosion, set by the woman who trapped Paddy in her house for weeks, while forcibly injecting him with heroin so he became addicted. Many years previously he'd sold heroin to her daughter who then died).
He escaped, and she tracked him down, identified Mandy, and lured her to her house which she then lit the gas to.

Thanks very much clam much appreciated!

Does anyone know what happened to the big Lesbian, who was Monica's girlfriend?

I can't remember

But I do remember my shock when I 1st saw her on screen in Shameless... she was the bird from STorymakers, she CAN'T be shagging Monica in a caravan!!!

Yeah, where's Norma?

Think I must have missed a few episodes at some stage, when / how did Debbie join the army?

I too was sceptical about another series and where they could take it after some of the weirdness of last series but am loving it.

I have a question to ask. I'm not exactly ancient (32) or a prude but do pepole really shag in pub and club toilets? I watched this weeks episode the other night and they were all at it!

I asked some of the lads at work if it was normal and they all just looked a bit sheepish and laughed at me. I know Shameless is meant to be far fetched but seriousy

I've obviously missed something, but this thread is treating Shameless as a soap, but me and Mr RbD have watched it for years believing it to be a documentary, are we wrong?
