rising-flame Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Yeah, Paul was father to three children I believe, Paul, Scott (Jason Donavan) and Lucy (played by a different actress every week it seemed). I'm not sure if Julie was his daughter or step daughter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Ahh the good old days. I used to like Neighbours so much with those characters. It's hard to believe when you watch it now that Stefan Dennis and Jason Donovan were related in it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if Julie was his daughter or step daughter Julie was his stepdaughter (at least I think that would be the technical term) after his wife Anne was raped by Jim's boss. He brought Julie up as his own and she didn't find out until months after his death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexx Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 That was a really good storyline – Julie Mullins (Julie) was fantastic, she always was. Haven’t seen it in years. I wish the current Paul would mention one of his relations...he's changed so much since he's returned...Paul used to be a hell of a lot more sympathetic and understanding...he’s like a totally different person now.

Truthisrealfreedom Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 I've been looking up if there's any news on Neighbours and its future and I keep coming across articles about Alan Dale 'slamming' the show and having very negative things to say about the producers: Mar 2, 2007 Former Neighbours favourite and New Zealand born actor Alan Dale says he hates the makers of the TV soap, saying he left feeling ripped off. Dale, who played Jim Robinson in the glory years of the Ramsey Street soap from 1985 to 1993, has since become a success in the US where he has appeared in an array of high profile programmes. But despite that success, 59-year-old Dale remains bitter over how he feels he was treated during his time on Neighbours. He says he snubbed the progamme's 20-year anniversary because he felt ripped off. "I didn't like it there, they were not nice people," Britain's Daily Mirror quotes Dale as saying. "They treated us badly, so I don't owe them anything. "Like that 20-year thing - sounds wonderful, go back for the 20th anniversary, why not? "And they're making a TV show out of it and there'll be a documentary of course, and they're making money out of that. "They'll sell it all over the world, make millions, and still not a dollar for us." Dale has accused the producers of trying to keep quiet international sales of the programme for fear of having to pay the actors more. "When we decided that we hated each other, the company and me, one of the things the company did was to market everything they could out of us and pay us nothing," Dale said. "We didn't discover that the show was a hit in England until it was on the front page of the local paper. "They didn't tell us because they didn't want us to know, because they might have to pay us more. "All along the way, I fought with them about the fact they were ripping us off. It was just awful, so I didn't go back for the 20th anniversary thing, and I don't do any of the magazine articles or anything like that." Dale says he regrets not moving to the US sooner - he has turned up in a slew of top programmes: The OC, CSI Miami, ER, Lost, NCIS, The X-Files, The West Wing, 24 and now Ugly Betty. He is married to former Miss Australia Tracey Pearson and based in Los Angeles. (Source: OneNews) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Known as FKAJ Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 In what way did he snub the 20th anniversary? His character couldn't have made an appearance after 12 years of being dead. Was he going to be some kind of ghost to appear to Paul, convincing him to become a good guy or something?
