Anyone watching?

I'm really enjoying it at the moment and think Indi, Sasha and Tamara are beautiful. Tamara is my favourite female character though - I love that she is feisty and cute and she is tiny.

I have a lot of girl crushes on Home and Away Blush

And I adore the Braxtons - every single one of them. I'm probably more suited to Kyle (the thinker - did you see him with his guitar??) but I would aim for Brax Grin

Another long-term fan here (almost from the beginning). Frank was my first crush!
Now it's Brax or Casey. Well, it's Brax but Casey is the better actor and knows how to get to me...
Romeo and Ruby are married in RL as someone said.
A few of them are leaving but don't want to upset anyone who doesn't know yet...

TwllBach · 05/07/2013 21:56

Oh interesting...

I think Rosie must be leaving, for some reason her pregnancy doesn't have the whiff of long term story about it.

Hopefully spencer and maddie disappear too.

Thinking about it, maybe Bianca will die in the whole Adam thing. I wouldn't mind.

I've watched home and away since it started, I only dip in and out now because a lot of the storylines are just repeated now that it is going so long. Brax tattoo means friend of my heart

anonacfr · 05/07/2013 23:36

Choccyjules I think a PM might be in order! I want to know who leaves.

shiningcadence · 06/07/2013 09:39

Ooh characters going...

I think somebody will go in this Adam/Brax thing. I'm sure Adam will be one of them and he'll probably take down someone with him. I'm guessing one of the girlfriends - Bianca, Tamara or Ricky. Please not any if the Braxtons though! I agree about the Rosie storyline, it seemed quite 'final' when the foster mum agreed she could stay, as though they were wrapping the story up?

I agree about Casey in the prison scene. Great acting. And that prison shirt really brings out the green in his eyes .

Yes I think Brax will choose to save Tamara because

  1. Ricky is Adam's sister so he's less likely to hurt her than Tamara.
  2. This is kinda all Ricky's fault, and
  3. He's always selfless where Casey's concerned.
shiningcadence · 06/07/2013 09:42

I also think Adam is playing Brax and won't really let one of the girls go, he'll just use his answer to turn the other one against him.

Choccyjules · 06/07/2013 14:05

Shining, that's a good thought, he could well do that.

Have PMed anonacfr.

Islagiatt · 06/07/2013 14:30

Lurking but love H&A!

I have a large boulder rock in my driveway and was just sitting watching DH mow the grass and had a flashback to Angel and Shane going on a picnic and him just mysteriously expiring on the said rock.

Then I come on here and there's a new thread - yay!

TwllBach · 06/07/2013 17:13

Ooooh shining you saying that he is selfless where Casey is concerned has made me think. Brax is all about his brothers, but do you think he favours Casey over Heath? Or is it just because Casey seems to need him more and is younger?

I also think this whole thing has made him closer to Kyle, who is just so adorably smitten with his brothers.

I don't really like Ricky, I have to say. Certainly not for Brax because he is mine I quite like Natalie and Brax together, even though I don't really like Natalie.

I feel I should be able to talk about the rest of the H&A cast, but in all honesty I only watch it for the Braxtons...

OP posts:
shiningcadence · 07/07/2013 09:53

Yes I think Brax has a stronger bond with Casey. I remember when the Braxtons first came and Brax saw so much intelligence and potential in Casey and really wanted him to do well at school so that he wouldn't end up like the rest of them.

I think Casey is a bit like Brax too - kind hearted, loyal, sensible - whereas Heath can be a right immature arse sometimes, he has a tendency to be selfish and jealous and mean as I think he lacks the intelligence of the other two. I think he would be hard work to live with and have a brotherly relationship with.

Sometimes Heath will grow on me, especially with the Rocco storyline, he handled it so brilliantly, but then he'll do something really annoying and put me off him again. So, although I think Brax cares about his brothers equally,I think he has a closer bond with Casey. And, like you, I love how Brax and Kyle are becoming closer.

I don't like Ricky earlier. Maybe she'll be one of the characters to go and then Brax and Natalie will be reunited :)

shiningcadence · 07/07/2013 09:55

Ooh I feel a bit mean towards Heath now forgets he's a fictional character Grin

I do love him really! :)

TwllBach · 07/07/2013 10:00

Ha I know what you mean and I think it'll be an age thing as well. Brax and Heath are closer in age and Casey was just a little boy when they're dad left, so Brax cod have found it easier to feel more fatherly towards him. What's the difference between Brax and Heath age wise? I wonder if, subconsciously, Brax resents Heath for not stepping up like he did when their dad left. I'm sure he still loves him as a brother, but fatherly love beats brotherly love.

And Casey still is a kid isn't he? Heath is an adult.

I think Kyle is lucky that he's a similar age to Casey actually. If he had been Brax/heaths age I bet he wouldn't have been accepted so quickly.

I am far too involved in this Blush

OP posts:
shiningcadence · 07/07/2013 10:27

Haha I know. I love the psycho analysing Grin

I'm not sure of the age gap, will be off to google! But yes you can definitely see there's a father/son type bond between them whereas, although he obviously loves Heath, theirs is more of a brotherly relationship.

GibberTheMonkey · 07/07/2013 13:51

There's two years between brax and Heath

TwllBach · 07/07/2013 14:07

Hmmmm Casey was 7 (?) when his dad left and he's 19 (?) now... So that's twelve years. Was Heath around 14? So that makes him 26 now and Brax 28. That can't be right though because they both look older.

OP posts:
GibberTheMonkey · 07/07/2013 16:58

Brax was 12 when his dad left and Heath was 10. I don't know about casey

GibberTheMonkey · 07/07/2013 16:58

I don think the creators thought it through. It doesn't add up

TwllBach · 08/07/2013 20:34

Oh Sad

Poor Brax. And Heath and Kyle are so busy telling him to get Tamara back they're forgetting that he loves Ricky. Especially Heath, who was there when he lost Charlie and when he gave Natalie up, ostensibly for Casey.

Won't anyone think of Brax??

... The right choice is Tamara, I know that.

OP posts:
TwllBach · 08/07/2013 20:37

Aaaaaand is it just me, or does Kyle look like a much hotter version of Robert pattison??

I luffs him.

OP posts:
GibberTheMonkey · 08/07/2013 21:33

Hmm maybe

Though I think RP looks like Jedwards older brother

shiningcadence · 08/07/2013 23:29

I didn't get to see today's but hopefully will catch it tomorrow.

Yes to Kyle and RP! I don't know if it's his looks or the way he acts, it's as though the actor has modelled Kyle's character on RP in Twilight.

Ellenora5 · 09/07/2013 01:04

Islagiatt, I remember that, Shane died because he had his spleen removed following an accident, he got an infection sometime later and his body couldn't fight it, he died at Stewarts Point (I think), wasn't Angel pregnant and when she went into labour he came back to guide her out of a storm or something, I think he was on a motorbike, that was a good while back when I was an avid fan

TwllBach · 09/07/2013 07:43

I don't even like twilight I'm lying but too ashamed of myself

I think it's the shape of his face maybe? Its quite flat at the front, and he's very pale skinned an taaaallll he is RPatz without the ugly.

He's better looking than casey anyway, who still manages to look a bit fleshy in the face even though he is ripped.

I can't believe I am capable of talking about people like this... I've never been attracted to tv characters like this before Blush maybe I'm having a mid twenties crisis???

scarlet5tyger · 09/07/2013 21:40

Hi can I join in? I love H&A.

I heard Hollywood is calling Brax (his actor anyway) so am hoping he isn't killed off in this Adam thing. I agree with the theory that he'll probably be facing the light at the end of the tunnel and see Charlie...

I was thinking that Rosie's baby was headed Heath and Bianca's way, probably with Rosie too, but that seems kiboshed now her foster carer has come good. (What a ridiculous story that she wouldn't have been informed about the rape by the police though!)

TwllBach · 09/07/2013 21:54

YY to the police not informing social services and Rosie's foster parents. And didn't she go straight to the hospital after it happened? I thought the MAP was standard in rape kits.

Pleeeeeease don't let brax piss off to Hollywood! Has the man got no loyalty?? But then - I am in love with Kyle and his tortured unrequited love face. I reckon we're about the same age... He might have considerably more trouble lifting me up than he did tamara!
