Its funny I always felt Kyle acted like dad to Josh even thought Josh was only few years younger then Kyle.

This year Irene has been rather unlikable being harsh and short with people and also petty and hypocritical.. The worst thing is she is so hypocritical in the way she wants Heath and Bianca to work things out and yet she wants Olivia and Hunter to not be together. I just feels like Irene does what the script wants her to do and it doesn't matter what the Character Irene would do. I thought Irene was hypocritical towards Cheryl. Irene once was common like Cheryl and Cheryl never physical abuse her kids like Irene did back in day of being a common alcoholic . I think I would prefer Irene just to be a supporting character and just be like Lynne if they are not going to write likeable Irene. I get that character of Irene has been through a lot this year but Irene has just become too unlikable.

I would like to hear about him from Heath and see how he is going in jail!. I thinkit's unfair that Kyle, who turned into the nicest Braxton after he stop being evil, went to jail fora crime that for once he had not even committed. Because I know Kyle seemed messed up and evil at first but once he calmed down he turned into the nicest guy and stayed nice unlike Hunter who one episode nicest guy in town and next episode back mess up evil boy he was when he started on show. Over time Matt and Kyle become more like actors Alec and Nic and where's Andy and Hunter somewhat stayed bad at times but mostly were good once they clamed down but they sill could go back to being there bad self's.

I don't think Lynne worried about saying nothing as she she said before she go to PTB before to say ideas. I think it's just bad writing on PTB this year with Irene.

For first time ever I would not be sad if she left. If I had to choose between Leah or Irene I would pick Leah in heartbeat. At least Leah is a kind and respectful woman. I love Lynne. She is a most nice lady as I have met her. I cant say Irene is a most nice lady at the moment.

It's funny you know because ten years ago Irene became quite unlikable with her having too much of a fiery temper. She become likable again in 2008 and unlikable this year. Her fiery temper became worse as she was so hard on Hunter. Its not all Hunter's fault that Olivia and Hunter fight. I think I liked Irene better in the 90s. Her character seems more mature.

I think Pippa was brought back in 2009 to fill in Irene's storylines like helping Belle through rehab and looking after Campbell kids. As I think Lynne did film her scenes on time as she was due to go to London to do her panto.

Has Kings cross ever be seen in episode of H&A?.

I found Irene to be very unlikeable this year. Has found Irene not very likeable this year?.

I met Nic Westaway the other day and he is the most lovely and nicest guy .

I'd like the Farm House to go!

Just say Debra played Pippa from 1988-1990 and Vanessa played Pippa from 1990-1998 with guest appearances after that. Could you imagine Debra doing storylines that Vanessa did? There's a lot that I can't imagine her doing, like Debra standing on stage singing at the variety show in 1988, and I have trouble imagining Debra playing Pippa during the Zac shark hunter storyline. There's also a lot of things Debra's Pippa has said that I can't imagine Vanessa's ever saying, like Pippa telling Finlay if you go away with those boys you'll only be coming back to get your things. I also can't imagine Vanessa's Pippa giving Sally the silent treatment after Sally took those clothes back that she didn't like, I found that very childish and petty of Pippa. I can very easily imagine Debra's Pippa with Tom, but I can't imagine Vanessa's Pippa with Michael.

I know the storyline finished a few months ago but I thought it was not fair of Pippa when she went to stay with her parents and left 6 year old Christopher behind to be looked after by Michael. Michael already had four foster children to look after as well as a business. I could understand Pippa leaving Christopher behind if Tom was still alive. Tom was Christopher's real father.

Kyle was the only Braxton that seemed to want to be a respectful member of Summer Bay.

Zac back to acting Principal .

I visited Sydney again a little while ago and I really felt a Home and Away feeling just by being there, even though I didn't visit Palm Beach this time. Would anyone like it if they filmed more in the city and other parts of Sydney? As it'd be nice to see more of Sydney and also be good to see characters visits places that aren't in Summer Bay or Yabbie Creek.

I really miss Kyle and who knows Nic still lives in Sydney and he may return for guest appearance.

Just wondering is it 100% positive that Doris Peters was going to become a regular? As I just rewatched the Pilot and she only had one scene, wheras other characters like Bob and the social worker guy had several scenes. You'd think they would have recast Doris if it was a case of the actress no longer being free. And if it was the case of Celia replacing Doris I think they made the right choice, as Celia had a proper connection with being Alf's sister. Whereas Doris would have had trouble fitting in if she was a regular with no family connections. I know Martin never had any family but he always had Lance as a sidekick.

Do you still think 1995 is the Early Years? I think it is as the Home & Away of 1995 is still closer to when Home and Away began than current Home and Away. I think Early Years ends when Pippa leaves.

I want to see Pippa return for guest role and I can't believe it's been seven years since her last guest role. I think the problem with Pippa's last return is that she was brought in to finish off Irene's storyline as Lynne did not manage to film them before she went to do her promo in London in 2009 with Belle going to rehab. So they brought Debra in to cover. I could be wrong but it was just the impression I got as Irene had gone on her boat trip just a week before Pippa returned!

It's so hard to believe it's been 8 years since Sally left as a regular!.

I think we've got Georgie for the long haul as she's been here for six years!.

You know I actually like the exit because it was true to character. Kyle had a dark side and yet he had biggest heart for people he does love.

I see both Leah and Irene as just as iconic as Pippa or any other main stay character. Also because Pippa was there from the beginning and the show focused around her.

Does Celia still own part of General store or did Celia sell her half to Alf when she left in 1990
