Fan Recaps and Comments:

"Crazy Chuck" Murphy:

Banter was had about Flans wondering whether 'concision' was a word. Linnell said no, but then later confessed he had no idea. Flans said he was surprised that Linnell would lie to him in front of so many people.

Linnell also told a story about the first time they were in Dublin, staying at the Ormond Hotel which featured in Ulysses. Linnell said that the elevator was an old style, one that you opened a gate to get into and had an exposed brick wall on the opposite side. Someone had thrown up on the exposed wall at a high-up floor, so you could see barf all the way down.

Flans told us that his father-in-law played the racist bartender in 48 Hours, as well as a host of other sleazebag characters. Every mention of one of these horrible characters was punctuated with "... but he's a really nice guy."
