beau_t Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Just to get some memories and maybe remind each other of different storylines! 1988 - Ailsa and Alf's love story Walter Bertram's return Lynn's exit 1989 - Definately the Donald/Bobby/Morag story Nigel breaking Celia's heart Steven's reaction to the store fire 1990 - Tom's death I guess? (it's the only big story I remember!) 1991 - David/Sophie romance, Bobby fostering Sam 1992 - Meg storyline, Irene's arrival 1993 - Baby Dale dying in his cot , Bobby's death 1994 - Pippa and Michael's marraige break-up 1995 - The Bush Fire and Jack struggling to find redemption 1996 - Michael's death, Marilyn and Donald's romance, Steven/Selina, Chloe/Brad cliffhanger 1997 - Pippa being hit by Kye and her resulting post-coma amnesia 1998 - Everything to do with Chloe/Lachie/James/Diana. 1999 - Gypsy's kidnap ordeal revealed through flashbacks. Ailsa's madness following the car crash. 2000 - Ailsa's past returns to haunt her, Gypsy's characterisation in general throughout this year was brilliant., Ken's death 2001 - Marilyn turning up in London, Seb's arrival storyline 2002 - The ferry distaster, the original segment of the Kane and Kirsty storyline (before it got out of hand) 2003 - Alf's brain tumour story with "Ailsa", Angela Russel, arrival of Tasha 2004 - Sarah holding everyone hostage, The Season Finale 2005 - The Stalker storyline (not necessarily the reveal, but the whole storyline leading up to it). Seeing Brett Macklin again I've just realised this forum is only meant to go up to 2000, so I'll stop quickly! (admin feel free to delete 2001 onwards if necessary).

ebrett84 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 I agree with pretty much all those choices. My favourite story line ever was the original KK forbidden romance following on from the Mirgini sinking. It's just a shame they brought Kane back in 2003 after the storyline had finished and ran that storyline into the ground, through the ground and straight to hell. From 2001 I thought Marylin in London (in fact the whole London storyline in general) sucked and I really liked the Shauna/Kane/Scott Phillips stuff which eventually led to Dani's rape (a storyline I thought was well done originally apart from the glaring absence of that word which confused a lot of people.

-Andrew- Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 1988| Alf & Ailsa's break-up, Walter's return, Alan's death. Lance and Martin were pretty much consitently good too. 1989| Morag, Nigel and Celia. Bobby and Donald's developing relationship, Emma learning to trust Alf/Ailsa. Hmm, post-Viv, I didn't think much of this season. 1990| Tom's Death and the fantastic, emotional aftermath. Lance's departure. Carly's wedding. Donald's reaction to Bobby's pregnancy. Pippa's body swap. 1991| Bobby and Sam. Pippa and Michael's relationship. 1992| Irene's arrival. Meg's death. 1993| Dale Ross' horrifically sad death. Bobby's death. 1995| Shannon's anorexia, Marilyn's return, Ailsa's breakdown. Shane, Angel & Dylan. Everything except Travis to be honest. My favourite season. 1996| Shane dying, Michael drowning, Fisher and Marilyn falling in love. Sally going missing. The earthquake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beau_t Posted November 10, 2011 Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 1992 • Nick, Loo & Ryan I had forgotten about that. Looking forward to seeing that again. Wasn't Nick boring though?! That was quite the extensive list Old H&A Fan. I remember that episode where someone drew a picture of pregnant Sophie on the blackboard. Wasn't there also a period where Simon told people he was the father? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old H&A Fan Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Yeah, while Simon was playing the hero alongside Blake thumping the dude who admitted drawing the picture, he made out he was the father. I remember the scenes of him having a good grope of that huge pregnant lump in Sophie's belly. Back in the days when I started watching Home And Away, I had no idea it was really David. I had to read about this in old issues of TV Week held at the National Library, and hear about this from someone who had been watching the series.
