  1. Today
  2. With the huge cast turnover that 2000 had, the style certainly would have been more easy to update. I dislike them now, but I enjoyed them at the time. They aren't very H&A as we knew it. It's hard to imagine the Robertson Brothers' version of the theme with the 90s style credits though. I did enjoy the little Easter eggs though - the cast sometimes reacted to things floating by like Ailsa with the shark
  3. 2 new posts about bikinis. Your username is apt, that's for sure!
  4. As much as I'm enjoying Eliza's character, I'm also not convinced she was being honest with Roo when she quizzed her about the items in the box either. And again this highlights her inconsistencies. In one hand she can be quite controlled, such as antagonising Marilyn and manipulating Roo, but then she completely loses it with her in front of everybody. Whilst once again I have to preface by saying this is partly Harper's fault, I'm so sick of Tane seeing her a just a vessel for his kid that I was actually enjoying how it bothered him when Harper started spending time with Eliza, allowed Eliza to touch the baby bump and was disappointed she caved to the pressure from Tane and decided not to involve herself with Eliza anymore. Fast forward to the end of the week, I was glad after Cash read the speech Eden wrote for him said he couldn't say the words at the wedding as they weren't the truth. I also laughed at the rehearsal. It was the way the expression on Eden's face changed from being happy for them to the realisation Cash was right about Tane. It's also funny because literally every person that has been involved has expressed reservations about him. In saying that, Dana's attitude is still a little surprising. She was the first person who raised concerns about Tane and expressed these to Mackenzie at the time. Now her adopting the Bridezilla role seems to trump the red flags. Harper really needs to do herself a favour and end this farce. Tane won't because he wants his baby too much. I do think Friday's episode worked quite well with the various couples. One wedding that is only happening because of a pregnancy (Eden's comment showing how society has changed). Another couple where one partner wants to have a kid whereas the other doesn't (although Levi's done an amazing U-turn now). And then you have two people that want to get married because they are genuinely in love with each other (I'm assuming if Eden asked Cash, he would have said yes). The only other thing to mention I guess is with Theo and the whole River Boy racing stuff. I didn't like how Justin was blaming Sonny either. And I do also think it's interesting that Sonny is portrayed as impulsive and reckless, but despite not knowing too much about them, he's being the sensible one re the River Boys. That should show Theo how problematic this whole thing is. Whilst I'm not keen on them, I did enjoy Gage and Lacey winding Cash up whilst they were outside the Surf Club.
  5. I don't think Eden - btw did I miss her streaks disappearing - had seen for herself how Harper and Tane were together which has changed her mind. I think Harper was just staying o/n at Tane and Cash's. Tane is convinced or convinced himself just caring for Harper is enough for them to have a good marriage, love - well on his part - can come later. A passionate relationship like his and Flick's was can burn itself out. Flick as we saw wasn't into domesticity unlike Harper. We did see Harper had overheard Tane and Cash talking. Another telling moment was Tane being so reluctant at writing his own Wedding vows and we know how moving his and Felicity's were. That atmosphere at the rehearsal was so awkward. What did happen to the interest John got after Leah and Justin's Wedding? That flummoxed me too Cash's comment. She was, although it got side lined - going to propose to him. When it does come out I wonder how Levi and especially Remi will take the news? Talking of Eden, again, her talk with Levi prompted him into telling Mac he was ready and happy to have a family with her. He was worried in case what happened to his own family - could happen to him and Mac so kind of ironic it was Eden what with the way she was with him when he first appeared in the by who said perhaps he wasn't ready for a baby with Imogen but is now. Mac has been there, done that as Rick broke his family up and doesn't seem worried it could happen to them. If every couple thought like Levi did no babies would ever be born. Mac had said to Eden she wasn't sure if it would be a no-brainer for her if Levi said he never wanted to be a dad. Of course it's all hunky dory at the moment but we don't know what, if any, fertility problems may arise. Mac, having had an ectopic pregnancy, heart problem could even be a problem on Levi's side.
  6. I think the 2000 season had it's parallels with life in general. It was a new century and a time when you want to be out with the old and in with the new. Then later you realise just how good you had it in the 20th century. I initially liked how the new credits were so different, but when they bought back the normal credits in 2004 where we got Hailey in a bikini it showed that in hindsight having the head shots only was a terrible idea. I also recall the female characters dressing a lot more conservatively at the time. When that started repeating it on Channel 5 I recorded the episodes to watch later and kept the ones with bikini scenes in them. There weren't many episodes I kept.
  7. I believe she'd already left the show by the time she appeared on UK screens so we knew she wouldn't be around long. She'd also started her singing career when she was still on UK screens but I think more was being made about her being Kylie's sister than her being on Home & Away. There are 2 highlights from her time on the show that stand out in my mind. There's the episode where her and Vicki were fighting in their bikinis during a windsurfing lesson. Another was the episode where her, Viv and Sophie were in bikinis in the same scene. Think that was the first time we'd had 3 main characters in bikinis in the same scene. Even now it's a rarity to have 3 together.
  8. Last week
  9. It only took five minutes around Tane and Harper for Eden to do a backflip and agree with Cash that they shouldn't be getting married.And that's after being on the receiving end of Hurricane Dana! Harper is having doubts, Dana, after being fully on board last week, now seems to be recognising those doubts as well. Tane...hard to say. I think he's still in the same head space of knowing he doesn't love Harper but still wanting to marry her and be a family anyway. Are Harper and Tane living together now? I feel like I've missed or forgotten her moving in. I was disappointed to hear John hasn't done any weddings apart from Leah and Justin's, what happened to all the interest he was getting on his website? I had to raise my eyebrows at Cash saying he's always known what he wants, given he actually did break off his engagement to Eden. It seems to have got her interested again anyway, although Cash's worries about Tane got in the way of her declaration. Levi did manage to tell Mackenzie he wants a family, see how that goes once the Law of Inverse Fertility kicks in.
  10. That was a truly heart warming moment when John turned up at the Diner and Irene gave him that HUGE hug. Her apology was sincerely meant and he did say he'd only left so to give her space. He could have blown it though and risked being told to do one by keep going on about her attending the Wedding and she wouldn't have to stay if she felt stressed. She was testing herself when she went into Salt and then there was no-one else about swigging the grog. They were able to joke about it as John even said he'd leave even if it meant him being in mid speech. I was wondering the same about her just attending the ceremony/service then leaving before they get stuck into the booze. We don't know how it's going to be laid out, will the food and drink be that close to where the vows will be given? It may have been an unintentional pun but it made me when Irene said that she'd told Harper even if she couldn't be there in person she'd be there in spirit. Back to the dramatics with Theo, Gage and on the periphery Sonny. To give them credit Leah and Justin don't know what we know about the whole situation, they're assuming - hate that word - Sonny is the one leading Theo astray when he's quite capable of doing his own thing by himself. I still have this niggling feeling Sonny's been involved in things like this before hardly a new thing for gangs to get involved with. Justin is pushing the RB thing and why Gage is hanging about is not going anywhere as the more Justin wants answers Theo is going to be clamming up. I guess as a RB's girl/lady you have to be tough, they may be likely to be able to play away but a definite no-no for them. Oh the infamous you didn't hear this from me line. It's certainly put the kibbosh on the no secrets promise Justin and Leah made. If it wasn't Tane getting married to Harper Cash may have different thoughts about the speech giving the impression that Harper and Tane are a loving couple and happily expecting a little one, but Tane is his ex brother-in-law and Harper is a friend. Cash knows how much Tane loved Felicity and if it hadn't ended the way it did - meaning them splitting up - they would have still been together when she died. Tane could never love someone else the way he loved Flick but that's true for a lot of people, they may fall in love with someone else but it would never be in the same way.
  11. 5 have announced a deal to show cricket free to air starting on Monday. Expect disruption/ a move to 5star during the day I would assume.

  13. That seems even weirder to me to advise a wedding you weren't going to see
  14. Sorry I meant the show's publicity did a picture for it, not Phil and Maz. Nothing famous about it. Here's a tiny copy of it that we have on our old BMD listings
  15. Gage's presence in the Bay has got a lot of people's spidey-senses tingling.In a way, Cash has put Justin in a difficult position by confiding in him, since it's left him obligated to tell Leah only half the story.Everyone continues to put too much focus on Sonny.It's not entirely unfair, since Sonny twice dragged Theo out there to do a job for Gage, but Theo is definitely doing his very best to stay in.By the end of the episode, Sonny's pretty much washed his hands of him.I wonder how Leah and Justin will see him moving out? Theo complaining that Sonny used to be fun was enlightening: For probably the first time in his life, Sonny is trying to be the grown-up in the room. Lacey's expression changing after Cash and Gage had gone was a bit telling, it's almost like being a tough girl is partly an act to fit in. She is very keen for Theo to compete, but then so is Theo. Fair play to Irene, once John was back she was conciliatory and even apologetic towards him.I must admit I was kind of hoping Irene would stick to her guns and not want to risk attending the wedding rather than being won over by John's magic touch.It was sweet of him to offer to stay off the alcohol with her, anyway.Probably not much chance of her having to go home during the vows, since there's unlikely to be any alcohol around at that point! That's later. And we're back to Cash getting grumpy about being best man to a couple who aren't in love or at least one of them isn't.Given that everyone involved is being honest about what they want, I still feel like Cash should just go with it and try to be true to that, instead of feeling like he has to pretend it's a "proper" wedding.

  17. I know absolutely nothing about Phil or their relationship why was the wedding famous?
  18. "The Wedding No-one will see". Said photo took pride of place on the shelf at the beach house for the remainder of Bobby and Greg's time there, as they and Sam attended.

  23. Did we see Marilyn wedding to phill?
  24. Funny how people's eyes zone in the Blood & Sand tat when a RB rolls up, though when Gage met Kirby asking where Theo was, his sleeves were rolled down so she didn't see it. Maybe just me but I got the impression she was a bit taken by him. It was a wrong conclusion for Leah, Justin and Remi to make as we know Sonny didn't know who the RB's were when Gage approached him as he wasn't aware of who they were and that tat wouldn't have meant anything to him. It was only when Theo told him when they rocked up to their place. Theo's not an impressionable teen, it's the cars and Lacey which has got him fired up. Sonny, as far as I can see it, has stepped away from them and trying, unsuccessfully to get Theo to do the same. Just where has Sonny got his other cash from, he paid Remi back then offered to buy meals, has he got other deals going on - oh wait what about that guy who has offered to buy Theo's car? Leah, being Leah refused any money from him. Remi after a hefty nudge from Bree did make an approach to Sonny which eased the tension between them a bit. Not looking good between Gage and Theo, Gage does like waving that wrench about doesn't he? I think Sonny ushered Kirby away, I thought she was walking up to it, from likely seeing Theo and Lacey having that not so secret snog so she didn't blurt it out to someone she shouldn't. It was hardly discreet though was it? Knew it had to happen sooner than later Marilyn couldn't keep the lie (which Leah agreed with) about John going to see a 'poorly' Jett much longer. Two minds thinking alike, it was her - Irene - blaming John for all her ills that made him go away. Hopefully he'll forgive her, allowing for her just having got out of rehab and come back and as John is Tane and Harper's celebrant, he'll need to come back pretty soon anway. Ditto with Kirby getting her pants in a real panic, by overtweaking her music, so OK a little bit, it's been a while since she first wrote it and she could have seconds thoughts about the wording or the music itself, but she was way overdoing it. Of course here we are talking like we're professional composers/songwriters . Justin did finally get through to her. It's not as if Remi will be charging them a fortune, if anything, to use the studio. On that subject how is she going to fit these recording sessions in while working at the board shop, she is going to have a serious talk with Mali. He'll be on his own then as Abby is working in Salt.
