Where's neighbours gone?

[Willabywallaby]

I thought it was having a fortnight off for Christmas but not on today

Yes re the Kennedys! Sarah was so right when she said they've got the relationship everyone else wants. Their chemistry is great.

Kate will keep being promoted into meetings with Priya that have nothing to do with her as they don't have any other teachers to put in a scene.

They should've employed Lou's daughter in the school in the same way that they conveniently put Aiden/Georgia/Rhys in the hospital so that Karl would've have someone to talk to.

Did Kate and Lou not live in the same house? With Lucas? Does she live with Paul now?

Tragically, I get updates from the neighbours page on FB (yes it's shameful!) and I can confirm that two main characters die in the explosion...it looks sad on a Drew level...

I'm hoping the Kapoors go up in smoke.

However...I have read who's leaving and my money's on Rhys. He'll go in a blaze (literally) of glory, running in to save people.

In a moment of final altruism and self sacrifice!!

They no longer have a use for Rhys if Vanessa is with Lucas. If he goes I bet he dies from injuries sustained in saving Vanessa.

Also I had the horrible thought today that Mark Brennan may turn out to be Amber's top-secret boyfriend and was one of her father's colleagues. I know her boyfriend is older than her but they wouldn't actually do that with his character would they?

The only person she has told about her boyfriend is Kate which concerns me as that would be irony Erinsborough style.

I don't get them trying to pair Kate and mason, he's 18 she must be in her twentys as she wasn't in school with Chris tash Andrew and summer. Who seem to now never go to Uni but were starting their second year recently.

Also confused as to how Kate went from 2 minutes teacher training to full staff member

Kate will be Principal soon...[busmile]

montage good call - brennan will be amber's secret boyfriend!

It would be really strange though Spainish if he was! I seem to remember him as older than Kate.

Kate will be principal soon yes, now that Priya is out of the way for a while...

Yes he is was older and was quite high up in the police, iirc.
But it is Neighbours, to be fair!

Perhaps he will have retrospectively become a younger, lower- ranking police office by the time he returns?

In the same way that Karl and Sarah now retrospectively slept together 14 years ago in order to save the Kennedy's marriage in the present day and Sonya retrospectively gave birth to Callum - the Ally McBeal storyline where she discovered she had a daughter she never knew about was actually more believable than that.

There's a tardis involved here somewhere.

Wow! Aussie timey wimey stuff!

I also love how sonya was being a wonderful new mum then suddenly out of the blue she's verging on going back on the drugs.

Sonya, a wonderful new mum...who seems never to feed her child unless it's for a clumsy plot device! And while we're on the subject Vanessa has mentioned "pumping" once, and says Patrick is too weak to breast feed so the nurses give him a bottle of her milk....I'm sorry but I'm a neonatal nurse & this really bothers me! If he was too weak to BF he'd be too weak to bottle feed as well and would be fed naso-gastrically. Not that there ever seem to be any nurses (or other babies) anyway... [must get a life emoticon].

Living with Angie is enough to send anyone running for the pharmaceuticals, IMO!

Loving the wee twist today! Should prove interesting as it plays out... Chris is a magnet for drama!

Susan has the makings of a good thread now -

"AIBU not to tell my dinner guest that she is losing her job and it has been offered to me? despite the lack of any advertising/interview or selection process and the fact that I have not set foot in a school for years.

Drip feed: both my friend and I only reconciled with our husbands extremely recently so I had been hoping our first dinner party would go well?

P.S. Isn't it handy that I never have to apply for jobs as they just keep getting handed to me!

am i behind - watched today, when does susan get offered the principal job?

Sonya only started to feel stressed when she unexpectedly had to spend some time with Nell as Toadie/Callum/Rani/Susan/Angie/Georgia were not free.

It is certainly taking a village to raise that child!

In a phone call as the cliffhanger

oh seem to miss that!

Is it possible that you had a day without neighbours recently? A bank holiday or something?

I'm in Ireland and the UK has been one day behind for ages. Is it possible that you're now two days behind? Mondays cliffhanger was "Is Scotty hitting on Chris" here. Tuesdays was Susan. Wednesdays I shall not reveal. If so, apologies as I am always v careful to only post about yesterdays episode but previous post may be a big fat accidental spoiler if we're moving further ahead over here!

Kitty I thought that about the milk too, I was also annoyed that suddenly Karl and Rhys are paediatric cardiologists and that Georgia seems to change departments on a daily basis ; I'm sure that teachers also pull a face about Kate's complete lack of any teaching qualifications and Susan's lack of journalism ones . Holby City annoyed me years ago for the same reason when a few characters just decided to become nurses and suddenly 'poof!' they were working on the ward...
