I know Sana, I'm hoping that too! Especially as Slime-on will be there! NO SIMON! JUST NO!
I am so looking forward to the green costume scene! I think it's going to be up there with the Marcella dungeon scene in ep 1 and the monk scene in ep 2, which both had me crying with laughter!
WHAT an excellent episode! Laughed out loud so many times! The biccy monster! The therapy scene - both Frances and Graham were on form! "Maybe you could use the money to freeze your eggs!" The therapist everyone needs!
Marcella's advert job was as funny as I hoped and more, Roisin has such natural comedy she's incredible!
Loved seeing more of Caroline and her rat () and their 'class war' !
Jon was in this episode far more than I expected, a delightful surprise. The party was epic and a wonderful ensemble scene - loved seeing Jon with all Marcella's family and friends, after nearly 2 seasons of only really seeing him with just Marcella, everyone together in one room was thrilling!
I only switched on from the party. And was surprised that Jon was there, but marcealla not..i love all his facial expressions in the short time. But I missed the green costume
Yeah. I was upset for Marcella about the job.. annoyed with Slimeon, but I'm trying to be generous about his intentions...it's never one note with GameFace is it..there's layers with everything!
LOL! Have you ever been asked to draw your pen in writing class Rosie? Must admit, I would have done exactly as Marcella did and drawn it!

Did Jon mean he liked Marcella or that he 'liked' Marcella?!
Now that IS the question!
“I know I’m really drunk and I know tonight’s been a bit of a mess, but I really like you and I’m worried I’ve fucked it “
“I really like you too Marcella. Let’s just get your keys out.”
I bet Marce thought it was her lucky night!
Serious answer?
He doesn't like or 'like' her, he totally s her!
I mean, every single date or moment they have together just gets so messy, but he is still there ... the whole party must have been a bit of a head spin and overwhelming but he stayed and took Marcella home... for me it's definitely more than friends! In episode 2 when Jon said about being friends, in my mind he did not mean it - it was more a reaction to the continuous dating disasters.. and his own insecurity...and all that is going on in Marcella's life and was just feeling out how Marcella felt. But every time there is a phone call of something where it becomes obvious how into each other they are!
He did recoil from Marcella more than once in this episode as well, which brings in more ambiguity but, she was properly drunk and he has feeeeeeelings, not just going to be jumped on! LOL! Plus he's a gent. Not a rejection I don't think, how about you? But cannot wait to find out!
