Dibble Investments Inc Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Ep 603 - Alf talking to Ailsa about how he reacted to Roo getting pregnant - and him talking about Martha, saying 'well, I can't help feeling I'm missing out on something, y'know, knowing I've got a granddaughter out there somewhere that I'm never gonna see or hear from'....

Dibble Investments Inc Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Oh God, old-school Emma is back. I was shocked at the way Steven spoke to Pippa. He's usually so sensitive. I love Marilyn, I know I probably sound like a broken record, but I really do and having Adam on is genius. Your enthusiasm for Mazza (and Adam!!!) seems to parallel mine for Marty and Lance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spooky I'm also in mourning - Martin left exactly 100 episodes ago as of today Awww, I was upset too, and still am, but Matt and Adam have been a very good Lance/Martin substitute for me. They're nowhere near as downright stupid, but are just as entertaining, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylover Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 I think Lance and Martin's relationship was far more complex and believable than Matt and Adam's, but I do love Matt and Adam as a double act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin and Lance were childhood friends (hence the relationship complexity), whereas Matt has only known Adam for about a year.....Adam's still a newcomer in relative terms, so Matt and he have not yet developed a friendship to that level....

Spooky I'm also in mourning - Martin left exactly 100 episodes ago as of today I wish when they introduced Martha to the show there was more detail. The whole reunion happened off screen and Alf came back and said to that eras resident, "this is my granddaughter" and everyone just said hi. Also I found that after a few months it was written as if her whole up bringing and childhood never happened. Apart from her adopted brother Macca we knew very little. If you tuned into the show around 2007 you could be forgiven in thinking that Martha had always been there. Also, if she went to so much trouble in tracking down her mother (Roo) then why did she then never bother to stay with her again. Roo wasnt even there for her daughter when she had cancer. But thats modern episodes for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I was referring to - the fact that they were childhood friends. I also think Lance and Martin were dependent on each other for that reason far more than Matt and Adam ever were. I guess their departure (to be together) shows this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 Matt has been around for the past 400 episodes and I still don't really know who he is. He just continues to be utterly pointless. Only 303 more episodes to go though before that bag of sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaxland 89 Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 I guess Matt is just an uncomplex chilled out cool kinda guy. Loves the surf, girls, helps out his mate etc. In fact, just the type of person you would expect to see in a place like summer bay Just a nice normal guy. There are some of them around. (Also there was a book written about his character in the 80s if you want to know more of his back story) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
