Thanks Ivan! I don't know if Christian will be able to become a professional boxer, but he's for sure a professional overhearer: ;D I don't need to say which my favourite Olli's cap is, do I?

This one? The guy who plays Axel... lol, really sorta not a good actor. He is supposed to apologize to Christian yet he starts off sounding mad, then like he remembers that he is supposed to be nice now and changing his tone I kinda cringed for Judith on Christian's behalf when he had just announced to Fabian that he was not gonna use Judith as his beard and then Judith had to explain to Fabian that they had changed their minds. LOL, Fabian didn't even blink when Judith told him that Ollian were a couple ;D

Thanks for the vid and caps, Ivan!! I have to say that today's episode bored me a little bit, but anyway it's worth watching it to see our cute boys!!^^ And the moment when Olli tells Christian why he wanted Judith to play his beard and he gives him THAT look was absolutely cute, my favourite scene of today's episode <3!! And this is my favourite pic ^^:

I don't need to say which my favourite Olli's cap is, do I? It wouldn't be this one, would it? I think it bears repeating, don't you? There were a couple of others I rather liked: I thought he looked particularly nice here. Quite manly. I liked Olli's expression in this one. Fabian detracts a bit here, but Olli looks lovely. I know you didn't like that shirt the other day, Aldebaran, but I think it's doing nice things to his physique. And Olli has another new and interesting shirt. What is getting into the VL wardrobe people? Going off in new wardrobe directions? I tell you.... I think this one is much better than the fish, however. Oh, and Christian looks good today, too. I especially like him in this, however: Ok, enough being shallow. Now I need to find something of substance to say......

Yes, nothing really boring... And I really had to laugh at your straight fashion designer comment, because I thought the same! ;D I was really surprised when he started kissing/touching Sarah... *Sorry for the stereotyping

I know there are many, but I won't let it stand in the way of a joke ;D But last time he was on, he acted quite camp, but he probably just wanted to look qualified (and another one ;D )

I know I was stereotyping, but that's usually what soaps do... Hence the surprise.

I don't need to say which my favourite Olli's cap is, do I? This one? No Lola, darling. Restenergy gets me so well. You just have to look at my new avatar! I agree on the new Olli's shirt, it's much better than the "hideous fish" one, no doubt. But I also liked the blue navy Chris's shirt as biglug pointed out, "Tigrotto" looks gorgeous in it. What do you think, Roddieb? ;D

I was finally able to watch it on my phone. Took a lot longer today than Friday for the clip to be mobile phone ready. Good episode. I am on the fence with Olli's meddling. And Axel is SO going to make a move on Olli in the next month or so. Maybe we will get jealous Christian again?? ;D == Now I am soon off to enjoy today's awesome AWZ episode. =)

Okay, I just want to say that while I know it's great that Olli and Gregor get on so well, Christian would have a legitimate grievance about the way they double-team him. They stuck close together and used their combined bulk to present a wall of opposition to Christian today.
Is Christian the only person capable of hearing things more than a meter away inside No Limits? Because it seems like nobody else can overhear things said right next to them, but Christian can hear from all the way over by the door.
Also, I want to point out here that Miriam really is pathetic. Has anyone else noticed that she always seems to need male assistance with the assorted mechanical devices behind that bar? Today it was Olli she lassoed in. She's like a stereotype of a dumb blonde. Unless she was just feigning helplessness in order to make a play for Olli?
Poor Fabian, he finally comes out ahead of Constantin in the race for Judith, only to have to share her with her gay roommate. Like countless men dating f*g hags he's discovered that he doesn't have 100% of his girl's devotion.

OK, here's the English subtitled version of today's clip:
Thanks Ivan and Nanna!

Just watched the subbed version on YT - thanks Nanna.
I have to say I really feel for Christian in this episode. He's suddenly found himself in this position without any consultation and everybody telling him it's for the best. Olli then pushes the case even further by stating that he doesn't want to be the reason Christian has to give up his dream. My god - what a complete mindfuck! Christian can't win. He gives up his boxing and feels guilty for making Olli feel guilty or he carries on getting more & more people involved in his deceit and seeing it get all out of hand. Then when he tried to rectify it, Axel shows up, and once again he finds himself having to continue the lie.
Loved the way he straightened up and became more "butch" when Axel appeared ;D
There were a lot of little things going on in this epi - a few scene setters I think.
Miriam knows Olli is gay - so if she really was trying to make a play for him - then she really does need to be carted off to the "blonde" farm ;D

I just watched the subbed video. Thanks to everyone involved. Another good episode. Like some others, I'm on the fence with Ollie's meddling. I know it comes from a good place and his intentions are the best, but at the same time, I just want to tell him to stop, LOL.
I loved how Christian has the belief that once he wins his big fight, him being gay wont be a big deal.
Found it funny that Fabian didn't blink an eye or surprised at all when Judith told him Christian was gay and in love with Ollie. Seems like Gregor is about the only one that is really shocked so far.

Thanks Nanna and Tihkon! Watching the clip again I noticed how sexy Olli sounded when he said "Also..." talking to Christian. Oh, I'm melting down, once more..

Maybe Miriam thinks that's close enough? The alternative is that she really is helpless when it comes to running that bar. Christian and Fabian are both unhappy now. Meanwhile some of us live in terror that Judith is the next Vanessa. But at least VL has a logical reason for this charade, unlike ATWT with Ameera.

Seems like Gregor is about the only one that is really shocked so far. Maybe Lydia has already said something to him? Maybe he'll now tell Lydia? LOL The big story is how they're trying to keep it a secret. lol - the net gets wider & wider ...........

Now that Nanna and Tihkon have posted the subtitles to Ivan's video offering, I can finally comment on something other than pretty pictures. I actually like the "Du"--"Yeah" exchange between Christian and Olli. Christian is simultaneously accusatory and disappointed. Olli defends his choice, but recognizes he's in a bit of trouble. I also like Gregor's exasperated "Don't exaggerate." I think Olli gave up a chance to say, "It happened faster than any of us expected. Gregor and I arranged things and we were going to talk to you about it, but then the incident happened with Axel and the Neanderthals..." It might have been better if he had gone in that directly. On the other hand, Christian did melt when Olli apologized and wondered if he was supposed to stand by and let Christian's hopes of a boxing carrier disintegrate before their eyes. As I said before, Christian can't stay upset with Olli for long (even if he stays unhappy about a situation). And with a boy friend like that, who so clearly thinks the world of you and cares for you, can you really blame Christian for melting. I'm pretty sure I would (especially if it were Olli ). For all the talk around here about Olli over-managing or even manipulating Christian (I don't think for an instant that there is really anything self-serving in Olli's choices here), it is interesting to note that it is Fabian who has the biggest problem with all this. It's not Christian, even if he isn't completely happy with the situation either. Fabian's problem with the arrangement is quite understandable, especially when it surprised him. Oh, and after seeing the Fabian and Judith scenes today, I think a Judith/Christian relationship is very unlikely. Not because of any particular spark between Judith and Fabian, but because the way Judith was explaining things, just seems to me that it's not anywhere near the mind of Judith, even deep in the background. Nor does Christian's behavior have any hint, for me at least, of either the friendliness or the animosity he had toward Olli that were harbingers of the relationship that developed. BTW, how many days in a row has Olli worn the white shirt? Was all that time really the same day and evening? Those people must be running ragged all over Düsseldorf! And Axel's comment about missing training, makes it seem like these events were over three days, not just two.

I kinda love that Fabian is suspicious. Judith informing him that Christian dates guys didn't seem to phaze his suspicions at all. Which is nice, that means that Fabian can do the job of being the watchful spoilsport and Olli doesn't have to be, but at the same time it means that not everybody on the show is acting like it's completely normal and natural.
Didn't he sorta say that when he said that they meant to tell him but things happened?
