Talk:Shameless (British TV series)

The Shop

i don't think that Kash owns the corner shop, doesn't Yvonne own it? Feminnem 11:55, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

They both do - User:John1987, 13 November 2006.

It is definitely Yvonne's shop. In Series 2 (Episode 8) when Yvonne is closing the shop Kash says to her "You don't have to do this" Yvonne replies "Kash, This is my shop" - User:12bigbrother12, 1st August 2007.

moving camera style

I changed the reference from Arrested Development to This Life. As a comparison This Life is a comparable British show and predates Shameless by 6 years, justifying the statement, '"reminiscent of".--Brideshead 22:25, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Episodes in series 4

Looking at the episodes listed for series 4 it shows that episode two is being shown today (16th), however I *think* this is episode three because two episodes were shown one together on the 9th and 10th as a special entrance to series 4. I'm not 100% sure however and didn't watch them live so don't know the dates. All I know is that I've already seen two episodes of Shameless s04 and there's another on tonight. I ramble, sorry.

I don't want to change all the episodes by one so that the dates are correct as I'm not 100% sure I have this right. Could anyone else confirm? Cheers. JoshHolloway 21:39, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ignore me. E4 first look. Ooops... JoshHolloway 21:47, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Controversy

What exactly made the New Year's episode controversial? So far, all we know is that writer Danny Brocklehurst has reservations about it. Were there any specific complaints about the content of the episode? QazPlm 01:25, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Subtitles on the DVDs

Hi,

combing the characters profiles together

most of the characters pages are very short, and offer very little information, so i think that they should be conjoined into one page listing everybody, or for each one to be expanded Joseph mitchell9 (talk) 11:03, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree whole-heartedly with this. There are some character articles which are currently detailed enough to warrant articles (such as Frank Gallagher although even that contains much extraneous detail) but the other articles should probably be amalgamated into one article for ease of reading and navigation. I'm up for doing it when I get a chance, if there are no objections? Jdcooper (talk) 03:39, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly: there is a model at Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps articles which shows how this sort of thing should be done, and although it's not a perfect model, it seems to withstand assault. So in regard to Shameless, it would appear to make sense to have 1. Main article 2. Characters and 3. Series/Episodes as separate articles. Adopting User talk:Joseph mitchell9's suggestion, is there any support for a page for List of Shameless characters? Works for Doctor Who. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 03:55, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We already have a Characters of Shameless. Expansion of that article to include a small blurb of each character, with key points along with their general role in the series, along with merging of all the separate main character articles into slightly longer blurbs, would seem perfect. If people insist on a full fleshing out of character histories, as can be found on Frank Gallacher (Shameless), then we can do the main article link, but I don't think even that is particularly necessary.

gallagher family

at the bottom of the section called "The Gallagher Family" there is an unknown child that frank has from monica, any ideas on who this is, or is it false editing? thanks user: trigg travers 14.10, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

It was revealed at the end of the 1st episode of series 5, after the credits had run. Debbie was watching the video Frank had made and he admitted sleeping with Monica's mum. She had a child from it and it was raised as Monica's sister. The unknown child bit is right, but it shouldn't say it was a child with Monica.

Is there going to be a Series 6

anyone know if there is going to be a 6th series. please could someone reply. Hope there is. cheers
