Sunday Comments, August 3

Lines of the week:

  • Minister "We now need the rings" (and there goes the bridesmaid with the rings!)
  • Kelly "I only wear Gucci" Fiz "you mean Poochie!"
  • Jason "All marriages go through rough patches don't they?" Todd "Yeah, but not usually in the first week."
  • John to Fiz "You're being paranoid " (that's what they all say when they're having affairs!)
  • Carla "Do i get mate's rates?" Janice "You would if you had any mates"

Wow, the wedding of the year sure went off with a bang didn't it? Seeing as Sarah had been Bridezilla, it's no surprise she insisted that Jason go through with the wedding even though everyone thought David might be dead after driving his car into the drink. Same place that Richard drove them, too. And even after he was taken back into the fold, he still gave Sarah a dirty smirk and she knew she was right, he set the whole thing up to try to stop the wedding. To pay them all back. Yet everyone thinks oh Poor David, and all is forgiven instead of pushing him out of the family forever for doing what he did. That or locking him up or having him committed. Really, that's what needs to happen. He really does need psychiatric help does David. Sarah probably does too, with her obsession with David. She's pretty much as bad as him especially now he's ruined her wedding day. Jason sure had his eyes opened with a snap, didn't he? About his new wife, i mean. He couldn't even bring himself to "kiss the bride". Jason is basically a pretty decent bloke and he does try to do the right thing when it comes down to it. How's he going to think of her now? Yes, *we* know David seems to have been winding them all up but none of them realize it. Between her obsession and her being so self centered, i don't know which was worse. Sarah is a mother herself, you'd think she'd sympathise with Gail and probably if it hadn't been David, she would have. So David didn't manage to stop the wedding but he certainly did ruin the day and the honeymoon.

So, he took his car and slept in it. And then ... poof, he's on the roof of the factory spying on everyone. And then Poof, he's in the car again by the Canal. When Sarah saw the police car, i bet she thought maybe he really did kill himself. David probably thought the cops were there because of his note and missing car. Marcus and Sean were all confused as to what church to go to. What church is it? Everyone else is gone.. well the Bride is still there! Every time there's a wedding or a funeral, there are always surprising absences and surprising attendees (Not many of the neighbours were there though i did spot Roy, Deirdre and Blanche in the back and possibly Sally and Kevin. But Dev and Amber, Steve and Michelle, all of which were Huh?? guests Ooh and i saw Liz and Vernon. Another HUH? Kirk and Tyrone, Jason's old best mates were not there that i could see). Sarah did look lovely. And there's David, scowling because they're all going off without him and ignoring his note, so he thinks. Do you think he really meant to kill himself and bottled it at the last minute or was it all a plan from start to finish? I am of two minds really. The speed of things really dropped my jaw. First David is here and there and everywhere. As the wedding began, he hadn't driven off into the canal yet before they were through the vows, the cops were at the church. (How did they know where to go? That was some pretty fast deduction that it was indeed David's car and the cops ould have had to have the church noted on their files. And you noticed that David was playing the same song as Richard had playing? It turned out he's ok but Gail didn't know that when she heard the message he left on the answering machine. Can you imagine how *chilling* that would have been had it been for real? He didn't stay away too long though did he. Turned up wet and mucky and looking as pitiful as he could. He continued to play his mother off against Sarah all week! Sarah must be desparate to get away if she's willing to move in with Eileen. Well David is back with his mother, why doesn't she go to Audrey's?

David not only ruined the wedding but he ruined Sarah's honeymoon too. Jason really was upset over what happened. Sarah slept the sleep of the righteous knowing she was right all along but nobody else will believe her. I do believe they could easily have finished the wedding ceremony. they were nearly done anyway. The minister could have done the speedy gonzales version. Do you? We do! done! Sign here! DAvid is really REALLY playing them all isn't he? Milking it for all he can with his family and with anyone else that comes around. Even Eileen won't have the newly minted Grimshaws under her roof and who can blame her? She can't stand Sarah anyway. Oh.... speaking of which. Gail's lovely blue mother-of-the-bride outfit? Did you think it looked at *all* like that really nice purple suit that Eileen had bought that Sarah said was identical to the one Gail'd got? Neither did i. Continuity Fairy on holidays again, i think. David's next trick? Getting Sarah's wedding dress on the Guy to be burned on a bonfire! Sarah had wanted to wear it to retake the photos! (ok, nice one, David. I did laugh at that)

Sophie is turning 13 and Sally is as insufferable as always. Imagine suggesting that her 13 year old's birthday outing be to a classic play instead of bowling? Ah but you see, she couldn't invite John to the bowling party or at least discuss the play with him. She wouldn't be able to keep her mind out of the gutters let alone her balls). Liz is 50 and she got a lukewarm party. Paul at least, managed to palm off his day old wedding buffet leaving Dev waving around ineffectually behind them and still Steve expected Dev to come to the party! He did but Dev made sure that Liz felt even worse. Mind you, I certainly wouldn't be upset. I wouldn't have expect a great deal anyway. Then anything would have been a nice surprise. But hey, Vernon came up trumps with the Paris tickets! I'm not even going to ask how he came up with the money. Probably sold something.

I see Leanne has her snarky waiter back again. And Paul kissed Leanne! Ooh, as if you couldn't see that coming! Liam's dog seems to like Kelly. But in the wrong way. Liam is off to Ireland and asked Ryan to look after the dog. Sounds to me like he's still not quite that into Maria. Why not ask her to mind the dog? Why not ask her to go with him? Carla is starting to act very jealous too. One kiss, and Liam starts getting narky about her and Tony and now she's making cow eyes at Liam too.

Rosie and Stape continue to gross me right out. btw "stomach ache" seems to be another word for er... female troubles. The kind you get every month. But with Rosie, it was a lie to get the house to herself anyway. And how could Kevin have woke the girls up? He wasn't talking any louder than Sally was there early in the morning. Looks like everyone else in her family is selfish. She asks for help and they all get busy buttering their toast. Yet they're the first ones to moan in their tea isn't on the table and all three of them are capable. Fiz is starting to realize that Sally does indeed have a crush on her fella. Jerry's back from Viva Milano and wonders why Jodie is cool towards him. You know, he's a charmer but he's very selfish too.

At least, if nothing else, the wedding got Todd and Jason back on the brotherly love track. Becky looks quite fondly on Jason these days, doesn't she? The actress that plays Amber seems to be looking off to the sides as if she's reading off cue cards. I don't think they do that on the set but it's distracting. And it looks like Sally is about to confess her crush to John. Tune in this coming week!
