Jezz

Her longevity is impressive. Though I always maintain Leah should have been written out with Dan at the end of 2007. It would have been the right time for her to move on in my opinion.

Favourite = Ziggy Least favourite = Maggie

Kyle isn't due for release until 2026 at the earliest. Would be cool if he returned one day.

Don Fisher without hesitation. Notable mention to Barry Hyde as well.

Filming restarts tomorrow. At least we're returning a semblance of normality.

^ I can remember him appearing in an episode in 2006, when Ric was working as the school janitor (he dropped out and wasn't working at Moran Motors at this stage). It's a shame that they killed off Axel. I thought there was still a lot to explore with him.

Loved the character of Charlotte. A multi-layered character who's downfall was fascinating to watch, but I think with her being the main story of the second half of 2015 it meant that the show went through a resurgence during that period of time, when the first half of 2015 was notably average. I don't think she was an inherently bad person, but bad decisions mainly through the motivation of protecting Hunter had manifested itself and things spiralled out of control very quickly. Great character who left a lasting impact on other characters. Still love re-watching old episodes when she was on.

That turned out to be a misleading headline, with the benefit of hindsight. Chris remained on the show for only nine months after this news had come to light.

Drew's stint on the show was short, but he was on the forefront for most of 2007 so a lot of storylines were given to him in a short space of time. It started with his introduction as Peter's long-lost son. Then, a pyromaniac was trying to frame him for a series of arson attacks around the town to force Peter out of witness protection (unbeknownst to Draw). He started a relationship with Belle and later cheated on her with Amanda (Belle's mother). Then Peter "returned from the dead". In 2007, he got together with Lisa Duffy but he always had aspirations to get back together with Belle which he did eventually but this meant a huge strain was created with Lucas who was dating Belle at the time. Then his old boarding school friend, Jules arrived in the Bay. Then, Drew dropped out of High School which caused Jazz to arrive in Summer Bay. Jazz's arrival sparked Jules' departure after a long-held secret between the two, and eventually Drew moved out of Leah and Dan's place to move in with Jazz. Drew then purchased a car and started modifying it with stolen car parts courtesy of Dom Moran. This in turn then got him into the drag racing scene which caused him further problems. After the drag racing scene was over, things calmed down for a little while for Drew until Dom was released from jail and started stalking Belle. In 2008, Drew decided to go back to High School, but soon after Dan died off-screen and he subsequently had a massive fight with Belle ending their relationship permanently. Drew then decided to move to the city to live with Peter and Amanda and that's the last we've heard from him. It's odd that most of this happened nearly 10 years ago, yet I remember it so well. I must admit, I was pretty addicted to the show at that time.

I was very disappointed with the way Brax gave up in the end! The decision to plead 'not guilty' just seemed pointless in hindsight especially since he gave up fighting after Ash and received a 20 year jail sentence when this could have been reduced to 8 years had he just pleaded guilty initially. For a pivotal character of the last few years I was vastly disappointed by how this ended for Brax!
