Andy Posted November 20, 2005 Report Posted November 20, 2005 So obviously Scott and Hayley leave in the last episiode, not next year like some people have said. Unless Scott dies in the freak storm Summer Bay has, as they drive out.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, many episode for the 2006 season would of been filmed already I presume.
*dW* Posted November 20, 2005 Report Posted November 20, 2005 Yeah episodes up to febuary or march would be filmed by december when they have a break.
a state of mind Posted November 20, 2005 Report Posted November 20, 2005 Whoah - 30!! Doesn't H&A film 3 months ahead? So, they should have filmed episodes up until the end of Feb by now...
Andy Posted November 20, 2005 Report Posted November 20, 2005 To give you an idea of how far ahead things are scripted... This was published in November 2003, 9 months before the Olympic Cliffhanger of 2004. Sons and Daughters (1982) Take four of your most popular characters, trap them in a room with a mad gunman ... and hear four shots ring out. Don't reveal what happened until the next season. Result: endless workplace discussion. Bevan Lee, the show's head writer, has just written a similar story in one of Seven's current series. "Good things are worth recycling."

I love music Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Someone had a thread a little while back about moving H&A to the UK. At the fast rate all the ex-actors and actresses are moving here I'm beginning to wonder if they are!
Furze-Forever Posted December 11, 2005 Report Posted December 11, 2005 He did exactly the same in Dudley which is where I live, it's very close to Halesowen so he was obviously doing a Chrimbo tour of the West Midlands. I didn't bother to type the article up from our Express&Star, but it said pretty much the same as what's already been said
