alexx Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 ^ Other than VD being more laid back and DL more 'mumsy', I never thought they were that different. Its just dawned on me, re-watching her first episode, my first memory of her was holding a basket coming into Summer Bay House talking about her parents. Well that scene with her outside with Jane was probably it. She's holding a basket, she's talking about being a mum and growing up etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremai Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 I must be the only one but I don't think the two Pippa were so extremely different. At least not at first. Yes they had different coloured hair but I think the personality wasnt so diff. Debra also had her feisty moments like Vanessa. Maybe Debra was getting more Mumsy but the character too, was also getting older. I agree; DL did a good job of taking over from VL and was pretty similar. I think it's as the years go by that the characters changes, especially after Pippa loses another husband. I wonder how much was Debra making the role her own, and how much the character would have changed anyway if Vanessa stayed on? Its just dawned on me, re-watching her first episode, my first memory of her was holding a basket coming into Summer Bay House talking about her parents.

It's been great re-watching like early years and seeing scenes that I thought I vividly remembered from the original run (when I was 8 or 9) and finding them to actually be bit different. A couple of examples are Bobby having dinner with Alan at the store, and Rory discovering he was staying with the wrong Fletchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Are there any sourced on why Vanessa (and Roger, for that matter) left the show? I would be really interested to read them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadyctslover Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 ^ I would also like to know why Roger left the show. If he was 'axed' it would be interesting to know why. EDIT: By the way, everything I've read him say makes it sound as though he wanted to leave to try new roles. However that could be his pride talking.
