Home and Away

[TwllBach]

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

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

She was so much better with Sid! Harvey looks like he stinks of fag all the time (and I say this as an occasional smoker) and his teeth are rotting away.
I don't get how we were meant to ever root for them as a couple.

I know, I just cant bring myself to care about them and I wouldn't be bothered at all if they split up. Yes to him smelling of fags! Haha. I thought she was good with Sid but I did resent her for that relationship because he was in a serious relationship with Marilyn yet the pair of them flirted like lovesick teens and then Marilyn and Sid split Roo was straight in there with no thought for Marilyn, who was supposed to be her friend. In fact, they're practically family. That storyline was so sad where Marilyn was promised Nicole's baby. I was rooting for Nicole to keep him but at the same time I was desperately sorry for Marilyn who'd already lost one little boy to SIDS. The whole situation brought out a side in her I'd never seen before - she became unhinged frankly, but she was clearly heartbroken. And then Roo and Sid just jumped into bed despite knowing how much it would add to Marilyn's hurt. Writing that has reminded me that Roo and slimy, sneaky Harvey actually deserve each other

i was always a bit at people not remembering how much of a shit harvey used to be. but then again the total personality cahnge and memory of a goldfish seems to quite common in soapland.

Heath is another one who's had a complete personality transplant. I remember him and his skinny rat of a mother being vile to Casey when they first came to Summer Bay. Throwing things at him when he was trying to study, taking the piss out if him, telling him he'd never amount to anything...

And he and Brax were awful to Angelo. Brax took his business and Heath hit him on the head with a brick and knocked him out.

I think being with Charlie made Brax grow up and stop being such a thug and same for Heath with Bianca and especially Rocco but I still think people were too easy to forgive and forget.

I sound really sad remembering all the past storylines don't I but in my defence I don't watch much else on tv so it kinda sticks in my mind :)

Mind you Angelo killed Jack!!!! and he was a bastard to Belle too.

Aww but Jack was an accident. I really liked Angelo. I can't remember him being a bastard to Belle! What happened? I must've missed some episodes.

He was really passive aggressive with her when they were going out.
Then after he found out she'd started seeing Aden behind his back (which to be fair was a shitty thing to do) he used a town meeting to tell everyone she was a cheating bitch then went round to her house and lost it.
He started yelling at her and breaking furniture and threatening her then punched a massive hole in the wall.

But then he got the Heath treatment and was actually lovely when he got together with Nicole (another one who got the Heath treatment).

Speaking of Heath, remember April losing her virginity to him and then getting all clingy and desperate while he was treating her like shit the whole time?
A really awful storyline that also disappeared from memory.

Oh was he, I didn't know that.

I remember the episode where he kicked off and threw furniture, that was v aggressive. But I thought generally speaking he was gentle mannered. He was great when he was helping Belle with the undercover work on the toxic site - he got himself into a lot of shit helping her with the bad huy developers after him and that was how he ended up shooting Jack :(

Also, after the chair throwing incident Belle was attacked by the dodgy toxic developers and she blamed poor Angelo. He was really understanding though. She treated him badly with the Aden affair too.

I must have missed a few eps though because I can't remember the town meeting where he exposed her affair so maybe he was worse than I thought.

Ah love the reminiscing :)

I always disliked Nicole. She was so bloody self righteous and so obviously after Aden when he was with Belle. I hated the way she spoke too. But her eyes were stunning. And I did warm to her when she had the baby.

That storyline with April and Heath was horrible. Urgh a clingy and obsessive April was not a good thing to watch. I wanted to jump into the tv and give her a good shake and ask her what the hell was wrong with her.

I agree with the poster that said that said that April and Dex should split up as they have no chemistry between them anymore. Or maybe the writers should give them a lovely romantic storyline to create some chemistry. They used to be lovely together. The day of Dex's accident when he'd bought April the picture of Paris for the wall in their new home. Aww it was so sad :( :( since the accident it's never been the same between them. Though I guess that's quite realistic, I imagine in rl a couple would change after going through that.

Their has been many characters who were horrible/done bad things and then become regulars characters that have been reformed e.g. Brax, Heath, Kyle, Harvey and John.

I agree about April/Dex they no longer have any chemistry I think her thing with Heath ruined them I hate how they make out they belong to together but the minute they split up or have problems they jump into bed with someone e.g. April with Heath, Dex with Steph.

What did John do again? Wasn't he a horrible stepdad to Trey? Can't quite remember what he did though.

I know (re Dex & April) I'm sad for them though because they were lovely together. I really liked April when she first came - she was sweet and had a really quirky dress sense and kooky personality but she's changed loads - for the worse.

Liking Spencer and Sasha and Kyle and Tamara seem much real pairings then Spencer and Maddy and Casey and Tamara were IMO. Casey and Maddy are annoying me at the moment(we get it you lost your exes). speaking of Tamara I heard a funny joke about that she is working her way through all The Braxton Brothers starting with the youngest Casey, now Kyle next Heath and then The oldest Brax last :) LOL.

John was verbally abusive to Trey to the point he had a meltdown and put a bomb under the bus that could of killed the people on the bus.

I just find it funny everyone has seemed to forgotten that but I guess it soaps anything forgivable.

I don't think Angelo was never horrible, him killing Jack was a accident.

Yeah I liked April at first but the thing with Heath ruined her character IMO. she turned into a bunny boiler with the thing with Heath and then when getting her Back with Dex I think they tried to change her back to the old April but didn't work IMO.

sometimes its the other way round I remember Josh West was originally a nice guy then had a personality transplant then was horrible then he was killed by Barry.

Roo the actress has scoliosis, curved spine, so maybe that explains the tents? I like them, anyway, I like her style. I must be an old fogey.

Ooh yes, I remember Josh going bad. And John being horrible, to his wife and stepson.

I also think Ricky remind me of someone. is it Anneka Rice?!

Oh yes I vaguely remember the bomb on the bus incident with Trey. I must have watched it on/off a bit then because the details are hazy. I missed Josh being killed too.

No choccyjules do you really like the tents?!? they add about 5 stone to Roo who has quite a nice figure. I've definitely seen her in tighter stuff and her curved spine wasn't noticeable at all so there is no excuse for those hideous tents!

I can't remember who Josh was.

I like the tents too!!! They suit her character.

Yes, I think they suit her too. However her character hasn't half changed since the days of super-bitch Roo, played by Justine Clarke! That Roo would be in a fitted skirt suit these days, definitely.

I think she's been reading... She was in jeans yesterday!

Kyle can take advantage of me any time. I even like his necklace, it's kind of - er - street.
