[ForHexad]

Omg, This is just soo amazing. I can`t wait to see her in that role. I belive she will do a great job, acting and swimming in her tail

It`s so great that she will be replacing emma, i never liked her.

[Nishat]

thats great to hear when does it air?

[Ida_girl]

The word is fall 2009...

[Tasha]

is Fall, Autumn? So is that Autumn in Australia? Yay, thats sooner than i though

Im a HUGE H20 fan. Its one of my fav shows, if not my fav fav, behind Gossip Girl.

Cant wait for the new series to start. Though i will miss Emma Oh well. I hope Zane is back I love Rikki and Zane

[cupcake:)]

I have heard lots of different dates... jan 09 (dont think so though, thats too soon if they are only filming now) March 09 (I think this could be true, shows usually air 4 or 5 months after filming) and the end of 09. I hope not but maybe thats for overseas viewers, surley the Aussie viewers will get to see it first!

Whilst looking online for when series 3 will screen in Oz, I didn’t actually find that info, but it DID lead me to info bout Bella .....

This info comes form an issue [the latest?] of a magazine produced by the series German co procurers.

In the piece bout h2o’s s3, it says - A natural leader, Bella’s a bright bubbly ball of infectious energy with a soulful side that emerges esp. when she is singing solo or with her band. She become a mermaid at the age of EIGHT, and is overjoyed to meet two other girls just like her - Rikki & Cleo. Whilst Bella’s attracted to new boy Will, she’s not the only one to currying favor with him ……

Here’s a link to the magazine that the info above ........

Its will be cooooooooooooooooooooooooooool hearing Indi sing once more [think of when Maddie sang the Oz national anthem atop a table at the diner, after a dare form Ric & Cassie]. The German mag piece suggests that it could be the launch for an international singing career for Indi ……. But I think that’s “slightly” been done before!!!!!!!!

Oh, and re that last line bout Will, with Rikki dumping Zane [see below], will Rikki also has a thing for Will????

here's some other info about series 3 that i found ......

Cleo and Rikki face their last year of high school without Emma, who’s left town with her family, but are confident they know everything about their mermaid powers and Mako’s secrets. But when Will - a freakishly skilled free-diver - uncovers a new cavern on Mako, he unwittingly unleashes a force that turns water against them. Luckily for them, they befriend a new mermaid, Bella, who brings an all new energy to the group. It seems they may need her help as Zane, heartbroken at being dumped by Rikki, is out to exploit Majo’s secrets and may destroy everything if the girls can’t stop him.

Cleo, Rikki and Lewis think they know everything there is to know about Mako Island, but when water attacks them on a full moon, they realise a new, potentially dangerous force is developing on the mysterious island. Thankfully, they find an ally in Bella, a new girl in town who reveals an equally surprising twist: she too is a mermaid with extraordinary super powers. Together, the new team face a new challenge that threatens all they know and love.

Many thanks, cupcake:), for providing ppl with that you tube link - as I know that ZDF mag download can be time/memory intense.

I LOVE the thought of Bella having been a mermaid for about 10 years already when she meets Rikki & Cleo. I imagine with that amount of time, she will have really honed/perfected etc the water powers that she has!

Re Indiana singing, here's a link to Maddie's rendition of the Oz national anthem ..... http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=SXBqYVMeYjE

Tasha, Angus will definitely be in series 3 as Lewis. I read in TV week recently that the filming for Rafters was just as bout to finish up, leaving Angus free for the filming of the new season of h2o!!
