Hello Marion. You mean Rolsie. . I was wondering how that situation would be handled, since the show attracts so many teenage viewers. However, it didn't last long before her foster mum came and took her home. Seems strange that all her friends knew, the police knew, the school knew and yet, her real father and her foster parents didn't know. ?? I'm glad it ended before they made any more mistakes.
We are up to the part where Brax gets shot. I believe this is where Charlie appears to him in a dream sequence. We should see that on Monday night.

Hi Berona yes thats the one.

Have we seen the last of Romeo?Indi is trying to find him.

At last we are having some nice weather again.I still went out with top and brolly in my bag though.

No. You won't be seeing Romeo again. As you know, he married the lass who played the role of Ruby and they have gone to USA to work. Also, Esther Anderson (Charlie) has secured work in L.A., so she won't be returning either. That's why she was 'killed off' in the series here. She is back again at the moment, as a 'vision' which Brax sees whilst lapsing in and out of consciousness, after being shot by Adam. Esther filmed those few episodes before she left for USA.

I have been looking in on the public site of H&A on Facebook and I'm amazed at the amount of youngsters who want Charlie to 'come back'. They can't accept that she is dead! I'm also surprised at the amount of people from other countries who contribute to that site - asking what happens next (because they are not as up to date as we are). I'm sure some of them think these people are REAL - and not actors. They actually worry about them!

Hello All not been watching a lot of H & A ,just seen Ricky getting the braxton brothers in trouble revenge for Adam .now need help a new man in neighbours ,his wife new manager of lasiters .sure he has been in H&A yrs ago he was also in casualty in england ..Any help please Thanks Barbra

I don't watch Neighbours, but I'll have a look to see if I recognise anyone. I used to watch it years ago, but didn't watch any soapies for a few years, then gradually began watching H&A because it follows the evening News and Current Affairs programmes, so if I was sitting comfortably watching those, I just 'gravitated' to H&A. Now, I don't bother watching the Current Affairs programme, but make sure I'm sitting comfortably in time to watch H&A. I suppose it's because I was always busy at that hour, when I had a family to cater for, but now that I'm on my own, I can adjust MY timetable to suit what I want to watch on TV. (It's called Retirement!).

Ok Berona .Thank you !

Barbara, I watched all five 'catchup' episodes of Neighbours to-day and saw the man you mentioned. His face was vaguely familiar to me. So was Colleen Mann (Doreen from Cell Block H) and Rebekkah Elmaloglou (Sophie from early H&A) as Terese - and of course, I remembered her boss, who has been there forever - even though I haven't watched it for many years.
I then searched the internet, but Neighbours' info is not up to date, so I put out a call over the Home and Away blog an received an immediate answer.
Brad Willis is played by Kip Gamblin who also played Scott Hunter in H & A. I'm afraid I can't remember who Scott Hunter was, but maybe you can enlighten me???

Berona Had a look on H & A Scott was in 2003 -2005 .his parents were Jack Hunter & Beth ,his stepfather was Rhys Sutherland just couldnt place the face .got there in the end Scott had.a lot of affairs .think they swap about from neighbours- to H & A .cant keep up with them all . Take care

Well, I was definitely watching then and I vaguely remember the face. I'll have to swat up on the story. I remember Beth as the one who was killed in a car crash (right?). Probably wrong. I thought she was married to Jack's dad. Oh well, I'm sure the people who post on the public site of H&A will be able to answer any questions I have. That's where I got the info on Kip.

p.s. Just remembered the Beth I'm talking about was married to Jack Holden's father. My memory is not too good these days, but comes to light after I have some time to think!

Hi all.

I've been away over the weekend.8 'girl's' (cough cough ;-) ) away to Blackpool.

I thought it was Sophie.Brad Willis looked familier too.I could picture him in a green uniform ie Dr/nurse?
Poor Casey getting set up like that.

Marion

Barbara, I picked up a little more information on Kip's role in H&A. He married Hayley (Bec Cartwright) and they went off to Paris to live. That would have been a while now as Bec retired from acting to marry Leyton Hewitt. They have two children and she accompanies him around the tennis circuit.

Hi all, health not great. All hell breaking loose here with our government so no episode on Wednesday night, but caught up with the one hour on Thursday.

Got to feel for Casey at the moment. I hope Kyle can stay strong, would not want the brothers torn apart by some silly girl.

VJ and Leah are finally back, along with Irene. Some dramas there, another girl involved. I can vaguely remember some dramas a couple of years back with this girl. Looks like she's still out to cause mischief.

Sally is due to make her reappearance any day. Was glad to see her go before. I hope the writers have got a decent storyline for her.

Hope you are all well, it has been bucketing down here for the last few days. Have a good weekend.

Hi all.
Sorry to hear you not been so good kim.

Hic hic Marion, lol. Yes Sally is coming back and will be the same actress. I'm thinking she will be offered the principal's job or if they keep Bianca in that role maybe she will just go back to teaching.

Kim - hope your health is improving. I see you've had a lot of rain up your way. It has been raining heavily in Sydney too, but not where I am - just the odd light shower or two. I still have to water my pot plants.

Last Wednesday, our Prime Minister (Julia Gillard) announced suddenly that at 7pm there would be a vote taken within her political party regarding her position. This threw the TV networks into chaos as they had no warning and they re-arranged to allow a '15 minute' interruption - which stretched to more like an hour - and caused more chaos. Since H & A is shown at 7pm, we were first told it would be on at 7.30, then we didn't see it anyway. It was since made up for us with double episodes and we had four episodes last week and are having six episodes this week. Not so easy for the regional districts - they are still trying to make up for the lost time and because there is a rule that the episodes will not be available on the internet until they are shown in ALL states of Australia - we now find just how many people from other countries, watch it on the net, on Daily Motion. It's amazing just how many people in other countries do watch it. They are coming to light, wanting to know what's going on because they can't get their "fix" of H&A.!!
For the record, Julia was defeated and we now have our former Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, back in the top seat - at least until the next election, which should be sometime in the next three months or so.

We have finally caught up after the upset last week. I have decided to edit this post as I said too much about the story and anyone who enjoys surprises would not appreciate me saying as much as I did.
Last week's upset with our TV networks has brought to light the fact that there are a number of websites who have been uploading H&A illegally. I don't know what it involves, but it may have caused a lot of the problems. I understand at least one website has been shut down. People were freely giving out 'links' on the H&A website for those who missed episodes. I tried one of the links and my computer blocked it with a message that it contained malicious content. I didn't need it anyway, I didn't miss any episodes. I just wanted to see if it was different. I hope people are not having computer problems because of it and I hope our friends on here watch it on their TV sets! It's the impatient ones who are mostly concerned - but why??? It's tough when a soapie gets you in that much, isn't it?

Hi all.
I havent seen it all week as I was on holiday,so no idea whats been going on :-(

Hope you enjoyed your holiday Marion. Where did you go? I believe the weather has been quite hot. Did this affect you?

When you get back to viewing again, if you need to be brought up to date, just let us know. We are back to normal again now. It seems that there was a lot of illegal uploading going on with this show and people from other countries have been watching it on those sites - one of which has been shut down. I was amazed at the amount of people from other countries who watch it on their computers and phones - just to know what happens next! Some are only a couple of weeks behind us - but they can't wait! Or maybe they like to show off to their friends. I am happier watching it on the big screen of my TV - and I'm not so wrapped up in the show that I can't wait to see what happens next!

Where are you up to now, Marion? I believe the program goes into recess for about a month very soon for you. Has Brax been shot yet? It will be interesting to see if they leave you with a "cliff-hanger". Ours will continue on and possibly get further ahead of you, but then, ours has a break from the end of November to the beginning of February, when a new season starts.
Recently, Leah returned. She took maternity leave and was written out by sending her for a trip to Greece to get away from Jamie, who was stalking her. I think you would be past that by now. Anyway, she returned with VJ and it was so noticeable how the boy had grown in those few months that we have not seen them.
We see Sally back in the show within the next week. She has been gone for five years. Tried radio work and TV presentation of a show, but I don't think it worked so she is back to acting, although they say, not for long. We'll see what happens.
