Forbidden Love"Forbidden Love" video clip update: Gimme back my canapé!
Really still not much going on for our gay German cuties, but at least in this episode we see them in the same room together. And what a room it is! In today's clip Christian and Olli get invited to Anyway, for the most part the scenes are about Gregor (who has quickly become my favorite satellite character as of late), but it's nice to see the fellas goofing around in the background. Now can we please get them another storyline? I'm not beyond sending a certain sham bride from Iraq over for a visit, if it comes to it...

"Forbidden Love" video clip update: Olli plays hardball
Another day light on Christian/Olli, but we do see Olli's continued frustrations with You can see today's clip after the break, and as always, thanks to Nanna and The Gays of Daytime for the translations.

The latest batch of Christian and Olli scenes are not exactly the most romantic ... in fact, the two men aren't even on screen together. But given that the scenes allow us a peek into their individual lives and that in his scenes Olli is faced with a pretty big decision, we thought we'd include them here. Christian's day at No Limits is pretty much taken up by giving free beer therapy (the best kind!) to Judith, who is still having issues with Fabian. Afterward he takes her upstairs to ply her with pills (okay, they're only aspirin ... but still!), which brings her face-to-face with the guy that Bat Boy pummeled. What do we learn from these scenes? Christian's answer to a problem is booze and pills. My kinda guy!
Meanwhile, across town at No Limits 2.0, Olli is working when Olivia stops by to use him as an unwitting money-laundering machine. When we catch up with him after a night of clubbing, he's apparently grabbed the Jose Cuervo bottle instead of his Drakkar Noir, as his coworker tells him that he smells like a Tiajuana whorehouse. But when he finds out that the bill that Olivia gave him yesterday was involved with the kidnapping, he snaps out of his agave-induced haze and realizes he has a tough decision to make. By the way, am I the only one who hadn't noticed the Olli/Olivia thing until now? It's like Victor/Victoria! If we find out that Olivia is actually Olli in drag this will officially be the best television show EVER.

"Forbidden Love" video clip update: The swimsuit competition
Apparently the bulk of the latest Forbidden Love episode deals with Gregor's budding affair with aspiring fashion photographer Rebecca ... I wouldn't really know because I was distracted by the most important contribution that the episode makes to the Christian/Olli canon: Swimsuit Fashion Shoot!
Yes, our beloved German gays (and Gregor) are stuffed into some board shorts and dragged to a lake to model for Rebecca's project, and we're treated to almost 3 solid minutes of hilarious J.C. Penney catalogue poses and horseplay. While Olli is clearly the showboat of the group, I have to ask if Gregor has a license to carry those guns ... shouldn't he be the one boxing?!
Anyway, after that the boys just kind of make fun of Gregor as he tries not to flirt with Rebecca, and at the end of the scene treat us to a rather hilarious tandem "Tchuuuuusss!" as they wave her out of No Limits. What's German for "Fairy Godfathers"?

Not much going on romantically in this episode between Christian & Olli, although in one early scene Olli teasingly calls his partner “Chrissie.” Is it possible for these two to get overly familiar with each other? (Actually, no.)
Today’s episode is more about Christian’s brother Gregor and his hamhanded attempts to get close with a pretty girl named Rebecca. Rebecca needs three really hot guys to model her swimwear collection. Fortunately for us viewers, she manages to rope in Olli, Christian, and Gregor for the project. Me, I’m looking forward to the next episode where I expect we’ll be treated to the actual photo shoot. We don't quite get there this episode though, as Rebecca finds herself stranded on a rowboat with Gregor. I can think of worse places to be.

Anyway, in today's installment, Axel keeps muddling around and is apparently so concerned that Christian not be cuckolded that he's taken to following Judith and Fabian around Dusseldorf. Either that or we're starting to see some soap opera elements creep into the story and Axel just happens to be in the park the same time as Fabith. Either way, it's a bit clunky in an Oakdale sort of way. Strolling around the park, Fabith continues their tiresome discussion about her being Christian's beard, how hard it is on Fabian, wah wah wah. Someone posted in the comments that the beard storyline was getting old and I wholeheartedly agree. Definitely time to move on and fortunately the sotry does just that thanks to Axel getting a wee bit more assertive.
Hmm, just what kind of go is Axel really interested in? And with whom
Yes. Yes, it is. I'll be glad once we move past the beard storyline and Christian's coming out to the world. Forbidden Love has handled it relatively well, but I'm really interested in seeing a storyline that is about them as couple without the "gay" stuff being central to the plot. I know it's a soap and there need be conflict, but I think the writers of VL can give us something a bit more original than this. Finally, I'm leaving you with a picture of Olli gazing adoringly upon Christian just because Olli looks so darn adorable!

Today's Forbidden Love clip pushes the Judith-as-beard story hopefully that much closer to its resolution when blithely sociopathic boxer Axel jumps head-first into Christian's private life. Seriously, what is it with these boxing types being such busybodies? Why are all these macho men so overwhelmed by an all-encompassing need to know where Christian is sowing his oats? It's like Querelle with boxing gloves. Anyway, Axel goes totally off the rails in this one, which is actually pretty fun. And after the speculation in the comments that Axel might be after more than just sparring practice with Christian, I'll admit that I initially took this line to mean something else entirely:
Is that what the kids are calling it now? After all, "rosebud" is just soooo Citizen Kane...

"Forbidden Love" video clip update: Kooky Plans & Olli
Hmm ... "Curiously Strong" Today's Forbidden Love clip continues the beard story (which I hope will run its course soon), as Fabian and Judith's plans for a movie night are ruined when her services are required for another night out as Christian's "girlfriend".
"I'd better hit the ATM first. A jumbo sized tub is ten bucks." Judith catches Fabian trying to score a movie date with another girl, and is incensed (she shouldn't worry, they were going to go see Mulholland Drive, which means their hands would be busy scratching their heads). Olli and Fabian have a really nice heart to heart about how difficult it is to have to hide your feelings for someone, and Olli (who's just as compassionate and warm hearted as Hollyoaks' resident sensitive soul Kieron), hatches a plan to help out his straight buddy.
"Um, dude ... remind me again who we are?" While getting ready for their public appearance as "Christian and Judith", she tries to contact Fabian, but is given the brush off. Little does she know that her boyfriend is planning a tropical surprise. But will it be ruined by another intrusive appearance by the sleazy, but hot Axel? > Insert your own caption here You can see today's clip (which does feature some NSFW German profanity) after the break, and as always, thanks again to Nanna and The Gays of Daytime for the translations.
