1991 Episode Discussion

The guy who played Rhys Sutherland (his name escapes me at the moment) makes a first appearance as the vet.

Sam has everyone wrapped around his little finger-especially Uncle Donald. So cute.

I noticed that too - his name Michael Beckley.

Does anyone also think that all of Sophie's acting is done yelling? It's always very aggressive

I never noticed but I have noticed that she is very good at lying.

Sick of Ben at the moment. And Carly for that matter.

I have noticed that she's saying "I mean" at the beginning of nearly every sentence. Some other characters have started doing it to only in the last few weeks so it may be in the script but Sophie does it way more than anyone else.

I'm really enjoying the pacing of these episodes. Also Summer Bay feels very idyllic. Nice to see the Store up and running too, it looks so much more inviting than the old store, I prefer the size too.

I'm not getting sick of Ben or Carly, I enjoy their screen time. I think they're both handling this farm life quite well, I'd hate to be in that situation in my early 20's, but they're giving it a go. Edit: Just watched further episodes. I feel sorry for these two, what a disaster. At least they know for sure that it isn't for them. Carly really gave it a shot despite knowing all along that she didn't want to run a farm and then she remained positive when everything went wrong.

I agree that Sam has given Bobby a new burst of life, I really like the dynamics at The Beach House at the moment and how Don is getting involved.

I've noticed that Blake has his own theme, that underscore (which was used as he read out Rachel's letter) pops up quite a few times during 'Blake Moments' over the years.

Sally seems to have really grown up over the last few weeks. Ailsa's mullet is slowly being erased. I liked her involvement in the Ben/Carly drama.

Marilyn made me laugh during her interview and then when she told the receptionist she already knew she didn't have the job. Emily Symons' body language and facial expressions as Marilyn are really fun.

I'm surprised Matt is still around, I like that he is but I just wonder what made the producers keep him on for so long. Maybe it was because he had been in the show since the beginning and he provides continuity - but I do like that although he's hardly actually done anything, I feel like I know him well enough.

The Alf and Marilyn duo is a funny one, I'm either left with a smile on my face or laughing out loud! When Alf called her a 'Good little worker' and her responce, classic. Nice and very random scene on the beach with Alf, Ailsa and Duncan. And again, left smiling as Alf gave Maz her promotion.

Sam seems to have his own theme music too. Never noticed before. It must be played to at least 1993 as I have seen it after Bobby had died.

I know the one you're talking about. It was used initially in early 1989 when Bobby was finding her parents and was not heard again until the fostering stroyline started this (1991) year. It really capture's Bob's want and desire to be part of a secure family.

Alexx, I actually found the Ben/Carly storyline in the past few episodes as subtle as a brick?:-

"How can we make Ben and Carly find out farming is not for them? Have Rhys Sutherland kill all the chicken because they've got cholera and then have two guys run their ute back and forth over the goats."
