j.laur5 Posted November 14, 2015 Report Posted November 14, 2015 Irene's character changed around 1998 and stopped being a comical character and become more firm type of character. During 2000s Irene always used to get impatient with Colleen's comical behaviour. I was just thinking when I was watching Irene in the Early Years the other day that if Colleen was on Home & Away in the 90s her and Colleen would get along better.
beau_t Posted November 15, 2015 Report Posted November 15, 2015 Definitely. Irene's role in the show changed. I take your point about 1998, but for me it was in 2000 when she was about to marry Ken and had all the Smith family, she became a proper "Pippa" like foster mum for the first time, rather than a hap-hazard one, and stopped being comedic and became one of the "adults" if you know what I mean.

But what about her relationship with Colleen if Colleen had be on show in 90s.
sindikatas Posted November 16, 2015 Report Posted November 16, 2015 I wanted to add that I've found it funny how in episode 1472 Irene actually entered the Ross's house saying "WooHoo, only me" in a true Colleen fashion. Yes, they would have gotten along.
Blaxland 89 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Posted November 16, 2015 No no, in Colleen's ignorance I think she would have been very judgemental of Irene being an alcoholic. She would not approved of the short skirts etc. Probably would have thought she was a "floosey". But maybe they would have overcome that. Also, Irene was still commical in 1998. Pretending she was an expert at typing and short hand and a computers but really being useless was funny.
CaptainHulk Posted November 16, 2015 Report Posted November 16, 2015 I think 90s Irene would have to pulled off of Colleen after her derogatory remarks about her alcoholism, the Mud Mess and Nathan, etc.
sindikatas Posted December 1, 2015 Report Posted December 1, 2015 I thought today that it would be interesting to see how 90s Irene and Chris Harrington would have interacted. Just like him, she was once considered as a town's joke.
Trudy Heine Posted December 4, 2015 Report Posted December 4, 2015 Colleen would get along just fine w Chris, both love gossiping.
