'm not going to pass them on just incase though. Oooh, you tease! If my adolescent fantasies were going to be tainted, i'd much prefer that they were totally wrecked beyond repair, really…

I will not hear a word against it - any soap where you can see half the cast in the Polo Lounge on a Saturday night is fine by me. David Paisley was in there on Friday night - I wished I'd read this thread before and then I could have questionned him on these rumours!

I was an extra on this today and can happily confirm it is as ridiculous in real life as it is on screen.
Only on a crappy Scottish soap can the extras bump into cast at the vending machine...however it meant I had a moment with David Paisley - we shared crisps and he gave me some Polo's.
I've taken that as the go ahead to say he's my boyfriend now.

Oooh, first you get kissed by Alan Smith, and now you're sharing crisps with David Paisley. You're clearly just working your way round all the people I have/had a bit of a thing for. Next thing I know, you'll be bumming Christian Cooke, AND THEN I WOULD HAVE TO KILL YOU.
Where abouts were you extra-ing in?

It does seem that I am just wandering around living gay fantasies but they only last about three seconds and probably mean far more in my head.
I'm doing 'Stag Party Member#3' which involved tying Bob to a railing and scanting him. It is the gayest stag party ever though with me, Gordon McCorkell and another gay extra just running around causing hijinks.
Back on Tuesday for 'In Pub' scenes - I'm taking a hip flask in and my new best extra friend are going to get half cut for a laugh. We've carved out fabulous character histories for ourselves too - just to try and shift the feelings of complete insignificance.
I'm thinking about wearing a piece of jewellery I didn't have on before just to cause a continuity error that only me and my friends will know about.

It's the episode I am in tonight: there is me tying Shellsuit Bob to a pole and a REALLY hot stripper...if all the Scottish members on the board tune in, it will surely be the highest rated episode ever.
I am terrified of how much of a fat munt I am going to look but...that's showbiz! Fingers crossed it spurs me to become bulimic.

Thank heavens for iPlayer!
Edit: thank heavens for BBC Scotland on digidol tv.
Is Lydia played by Joe Wicks' mother from Eastenders, but without curly hair? And is she meant to be Scottish, as I can't quite make out her accent.

My friend has just text me saying it is the first time she has ever seen me be snide to a topless guy.
It is indeed Joe Wicks's mum, in the guise of a fashion boutique owner and she is supposed to be Scottish; the accent is MENTAL though. They should have just made her be English: noone would have cared.
You are so brave to sit through this show...I am soon to be seen in the pub, miming in the background of a wake, to the weirdest man I have ever met. He kept whispering 'fuck' when the cameras went on.

A wake!
Has Joe Wicks mum finally murdered the scottish accent?

This is absolutely fantastic just now. I only dip in and out of it - I usually only have time to follow it using the TV Guide - but I sat through tonight's episode and it was fantastic. Bob/Charlie not getting married was sad but not overwrought or boring, and the Gina/Archie tension was spot on, I was shaking on my sofa.
I wish Rosa Di Marco was still called Rosa Di Marco and had her stripe though, even if her slutty old lady character is ace.
