God I think it’s gross to even marry a second cousin let alone own your first cousin or Aunt and uncle . You think it be legal as aunt and uncle are usually like second parents!.

I fix it up I meant living together.

I think had Tom lived then I think Tom and Ben would clash with living together!.

I think Bobby and Irene would become great friends had Bobby lived and even though they were on show for little while when Lynne taken over role and they seemed to get along well in time they had screens.

I think it would have been better if they had just written out Ben and Carly after they got married as both did nothing on show for remainder of time except act as younger parents of house when Pippa was not in episode,

I guess people waving her off.

I always wondered why Carly got such bad send off when she left in 1991?.

I wonder if Pippa might eventually have got back into nursing. I enjoyed Donald and Pippa's banter as I think Pippa had never forgotten the way Donald was towards them when she first moved to the Bay . Personally I think Pippa always had a fiery side to her whether Vanessa or Debra was playing her. I loved how Pippa told both Morag and Celia to shut up at separate times in 1989 as both Morag and Celia were very insufferable characters at times . I do think the reason why Pippa seemed more mellowed in her return visits was because she was basically just acting like Debra Lawrence and wasn’t dealing with dramas and very much how Irene at times acts just like Lynne Mcgranger when she in background more.

Maybe Pippa back up Bobby too Forster department and told Forster department that she keep eye on Sam and since Pippa has good name in department that they agreed.

Donald having a brother and sister and then years later telling Seb he's an only child. Alf's parents were supposed to be alive in 1988 and then in 2003 Morag said her father died 16 years ago. Colleen was meant to have a sister who she went to live with in 1989 and in 2008 Colleen said I’ve never had a sister. Bobby grandparents leaving Bobby behind.

Thanks sorry to go off topic .

What more meant how far in motion was it planned as Lynne herself said she only just found out recently and what was going happen to Nick as was he going to be written out too or was going be sent to with Hayley and Noah?. Can you please show where I can see where Coral spoke about it more recently.

Given Lynne Mcgranger only found out her self year ago I am not sure how seriously true it was as probably was something only said in TPB office as thinking out loud and wouldn’t be surprised if someone mentioned axing Alf at some stage in past as I’m thinking out loud . It seemed werid to axed Irene then as she had Hayley and Nick still living with her. As for Pippa no I don’t think she would be ever axed and going by her exit on just going on hoilday I think Producers were hoping Debra was going change her mind and return even though Debra was pretty sure she wasn’t going too. I think had Pippa stayed her character would gotten married again possibly to widower single dad with teenagers . Also after Pippa left we had Natalie/Shelley/Beth/Sally etc all playing mother of household . I personally don’t think Michael needed to be character that need storyline’s every minute as work well as supporting character. Show always normal had at least two or three mother type characters in show be it Pippa/Alisa /Irene and later Alisa/Irene/ Natalie etc and this days we have Irene /Leah/Marilyn/Roo.

I think producers struggle with giving her stories or purpose . Was getting hard randomly having her show up at screens and normally her only screens was Summer Bay House or Diner.

Classic Neighbours too you mean as final years of Neighbours never did comedy.

This Month Marilyn over takes Sally in appearances in episodes and Marilyn be 4th longest serving character ever.

But Dean was like Bobby as both started out being angry rebellious characters and later calm down into nicer people. Even though very different characters and very different circumstances.

I am watching episode of my favourite quotes in early years when Alisa tells Alf Barbara is most normal one out of you sisters. I know people have said Barbara was boring character but I think she balanced it out better by her and Alf being more normal siblings and then Morag and Celia being lager than life characters. Alf I think basically think agreed as Alf quite often spoke down to Morag and Celia in early years but not with Barbara. I don’t why they ruined Barbara in 1996 just for shake of two episode drama.

But have to admit lot newcomers are likeable enough as characters even though they are not most interesting characters.

Her character just seemed to be a complete plot device to fill out the rest of Holly's contract.

Was coronavirus ever mentioned on show at all?.

I wish we got to see Pippa final episodes on 7two.

I think Xander would work as bi or gay tendencies character!.

I would include Justin and Leah in older characters group as they both are now in there 40s going by actors ages and I believe both characters are around same as age as actors. But I think at moment we got most longest serving characters we ever had as we got 7 as I include Justin as long standing character as he be there almost seven and looks like going nowhere . But I think problem with any soap or tv show it’s hard to keep getting fresh ideas and even when you haven’t seen it on H&A you Likely seen on other show like Neighbours or vice versa.

I wouldn’t mind Heather storyline if Marilyn explained where Phil fitted in as guest it’s possible they broken up and when she went to country and then she come me back to Phil and finding he was with other women and that’s what cause her to go to Summer Bay and didn’t want to tell her secret.
