CaptainHulk Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 There comes a time when you're left thinking, "WITF do they get these people from?" The actress who played Sid's ex and Dex and Indi's mum, Jody That kid playing Thabo And of course the Woman playing John's ex Jeanena Post your least fave guest actors here.

cadyctslover Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Haha! Interesting topic. I actually thought Jody was a pretty good actress, especially when she returned in 2011. The worst guest actor that springs to mind is Sandy Winton, who played the husband of a woman treated by Rachel Armstrong in 2009. The mother lost the baby, and went on to blame Rachel, kidnapping Harry. Sandy played the part in his usual deadpan, emotionless style which he went on to use as Michael Williams in Neighbours, until he was axed . I think the casting on H&A is in general very well-considered, and there haven't been any others that I can think of at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHulk Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 I actually thought Victoria Haralabido was worse on the second stint. I did some background reading on her and she's done a ton of theatre and whatnot, fair play to her. I just feel she was not the right person to play Jody.

Ryan Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 This is going back about 6 years, but I remember this boy who shared a scene with Matilda and some school mates as they sat at a table in the diner discussing some school play or something being rather bad. Having said that I don't think they are necessarily my least favourite, sometimes they can be my favourites so long as they don't detract too much from the show, it can be fun to laugh at their awesome badness.

alexx Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 I really didn't mind the actor who played Jody either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezz Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Josh Rosenthal who played Scott Phillips in 2003 was an extremely wooden actor and almost laughable with the way he posed as a tough villain. It was only his physicality that made him seem intimidating, but there was little intimidation factor about him considering he was supposed to play a hard-core villain. Nathaniel Dean who played Scott Phillips in 2001 was excellent and he played the role extremely well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHulk Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Josh Rosenthal's Scott fell through probably because memories of him as Wayne Cook (Selina's brother), primarily a comic character who at the worst was a womaniser, were still fresh in viewers mind and people remembered Scott as being a real thug.

Ryan Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 I thought he was unconvincing and I've never seen his earlier stint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seemed genuinely psychotic and capable of snapping at any second, while new Scott was just terrible. I'm sure I remember reading somewhere that the original plan was for him to lead the 2004 siege (instead of Sarah Lewis) and thank God that plan got scrapped because he would have butchered it terribly.

Yes he was originally going to be the character that was going to lead the 2004 siege. If Nathaniel Dean played the role, it would of worked excellently, but I just don't believe Josh Rosenthal would have done a good job of it. At least with Sarah Lewis, it meant the 'Summer Bay Stalker' storyline was allowed to happen as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
