I think in the first episode her Nan mentioned that her Dad was being released from prison, then when the others asked her what she would do with the money she said about hiring a hitman or something. So I don’t think it was supposed to be a present. The problem is they’ve mostly ignored her character in the other episodes so nobody knows her backstory or cares at the moment!
) and everyone's storyline has to be wrapped up, so she probably won't get much screen time. I'm sure they'll manage to squeeze in a few fat jokes though 
Why was that stupid gambling addict girl gambling money that wasn’t even the shop owners. Why were her friends letting her. Why does the guy think that stupid bet with no contract and the fact he’s already broken the law stands, what’s with the pointless storyline of the Geordie girl and older bloke, why have the police not wondered why the man faked his own death, where’s joe sugg who got rolled out as the spokesperson of the show and has had about 3 minutes air time, where has the lady who writes it talent gone. I’ve got so many questionsApparently Gemma's backstory is going to be in the next episode, but it's the last one (thankfully
Why have they been fannying about in Monaco for four episodes when all they needed was someone with an A* in GCSE IT (which makes you an expert hacker obvs) to recover the CCTV footage? Urgh, I'm basically hate-watching this series at this point
Yeah it was totally ridiculous that she even attempted to buy one!
I hope they give the kid some money after his super IT skills saved the day! They would have been screwed without him!Apparently Gemma's backstory is going to be in the next episode, but it's the last one (thankfully

I can get.It was a no lose for him anyway as it’s not his money to gambleShe has the dog which is what he wants.
He proposes a gamble.
Win : you believe the person who stole your ticket is going to give it back
Lose : hand the dog back and phone the lottery to tell them you lied
On what planet does that work , she is blackmailing him using the dog, so why agree to a 50/50 gamble, in what way apart from in the writers head does that make sense.
Either he is dumb enough to think he will never get the dog back , even though they have no money for getting the dog back to the UK to continue to blackmail him , which makes no sense.
Or if stupidly the blackmailing is working would you give up your only strength to play a stupid gamble.
None of this shite makes any sense or has any bearing on reality, this Kay Mellor must write this crap and think she had made a masterpiece and BBC must have read it and agreed, the only people who suffer is the viewing public.
It really is only worth watch now to see how many
the writing is appalling it’s like it’s not the same person who wrote the first two
I didn't like S3 either. This series won't win any awards but I actually like it
although it's probably because I've been disappointed with a lot of 9pm dramas this year so this one is just easy harmless viewing 
I’m really annoyed about the fat phobia. The lass’ only personality so far is about food, “chubby girl complains she’s hungry”, “chubby girl eats all the mini bar food, classic” like WHAT. I really like Kay Mellor’s writing but this is really poor.I'm on the fence whether I have enjoyed it or not. It's an interesting premise and I am glad that it hasn't followed the formula of they get the money and then focus each week on what the characters life has been like before and after. The problem is it's just been so poorly executed.
Colette has an interesting backstory, but when it went to the flashback when she was telling them why her name is different they didn't seem shocked at all. It was kind of like, oh? so you can't come to Monaco then?
I can't work out whether Joe Sugg's accent is good or not.. probably because we haven't seen a lot of him. His acting isn't great - he looks like he is in pain in every scene.
Poor Georgina. Reduced down to being the butt of the fat jokes. Not okay for 2021 at all, it's really made me disgusted with how she has been written. So people who are bigger just think about food all the time and all they do is eat? Christ, you'd think this had come out in the 00's not now.
Oh and the pregnant girl? I can't remember her characters name but what is all this about the random fertility problem she has? Not very well explained at all.
I like Kayleigh and her story could be interesting with the gambling addiction if Mellor wasn't writing it as if she was writing for the CBBC - she is just too dizzyingly optimistic.
I think Frank is great and what Neil Morrisey is doing with him is fab - I just hate him every time he comes on the screen, but in a good way. It's boring to see Gaynor Fay in everything her mum does tbh.
I guess when they get the money they will all buy the kennels together and rescue it from that woman who is trying to franchise it (Four Paws is it?).
I thought some of the scenes looked as if Monaco was CGI'd into the background, like when Keele and co were getting out of the taxi and there were yachts in the background. They are definitely in the casino, apparently they filmed those scenes in the early hours of the morning.
They definitely went to Monaco for at least some of the filming. If you watch the credits it includes a Monaco production team.
