Fed up waiting for it to happen - I mean who bonds over a dying sheep? Let alone bury it in a surburban back garden??

I'm just getting into neighbours. I haven't watched it for years but it seems to coincide with b/feeding my baby every day. Bit confused by it all really!!

Why/how is Paul back?
What happened to split Karl and Susan up in the first place?
Where's the husband of the woman who told Susan she could get Karl back?

And what is with the sheep thing??

Karl had a mid life crisis and decided he didn't love Susan anymore, he went off with Izzy, who was only after Karl for his money. Izzy tricked Karl into thinking she was having his baby but it was someone else's. She eventually lost the baby (long story) and Karl realised she was taking him for a ride. Meanwhile Susan marries Alex (after about 2 seconds), he promptly dies from an incurable disease, she is left to bring up his two kids, Rachel & Zeke and his long lost daughter Kayta who turned up about 5 minutes before he popped his clogs.

Lynn & Joe split up (something happened in rl with the actor who plays Joe). But Lynn has fallen in love with Joe Mangel, but he is off the scene at the moment, helping out on his son's ranch somewhere. I think this is leading to Lynn and Paul getting together in the not too distant future.

Paul has been back for ages, he came back to take revenge on ex-neighbours who had crossed him, but that kind of all went pear shaped.

HTH

Yes, tv in kitchen. DH doesn't approve of Neighbours either - I usually switch it off when I see him coming (on the rare occasion he is home before 6)

heiferjamese · 21/08/2006 17:57

another DH who doesn't agree with watching "that mindless rubbish"... So I Sky+ it and watch it while he is bathing DD and putting her to bed.

I have been watching since the beginning and don't think I have missed that many over the years... now how sad is that......

intergalacticwalrus · 21/08/2006 18:02

I watch the lunchtime edition, and time DS's naps so I can watch it while eating my lunch and in peace!!! I also watch Doctors when it's on. Now that's really sad.

As for Karl and Susan, yep they should just do it. Jenny has a sneering look on her face, and she's a bit of a knob. Susan should make sure that before he comes back that the guitar meets a horrible end.

Freckle · 21/08/2006 18:27

OK I don't watch it that often, but something has struck me. Katya is Alex's long-lost daughter. Has there been any explanation as to why she is clearly of a different ethnicity to his two other children?

intergalacticwalrus · 22/08/2006 12:36

Because it's Neighbours, and that sort of thing doesn't matter. It's like when the actors change over without explaination. There must have been at least 15 Lucy Robinsons.

alexsmilitantmum · 22/08/2006 12:40

the first lucy robinson was very thin and sallow looking wasn't she, ? then she bacame strapping and fair skinned with black curly hair, then she went away and came back all blonde and babesome.

BethAndHerBrood · 22/08/2006 18:17

Can someone explain the twin-in-a-coma thing please! Am very confused about the nun finding him!

AllieBongo · 22/08/2006 18:20

is he bonkers? i don't get it either beth

coppertop · 22/08/2006 18:24

Two of the triplets are identical. Cameron is the nice one and Robert the psycho twin who blew up the plane. Robert is pretending to be Cam while Cam is in a coma in a hospice.

Carmella (Connor's ex) is about to become a nun and so has been helping out at the hospice looking after the real Cam.

BethAndHerBrood · 22/08/2006 18:31

Thanks for that - don't know anything about a plane getting blown up, but have only just started watching it. That helps though, didn't even realise cam/robert and elle were twins/triplets!! Was their mum one of the twins that was in the programme yonks ago?

futurity · 22/08/2006 18:32

the twins Mum is Gail who will be in the show soon

BethAndHerBrood · 22/08/2006 18:39

Thankyou! Shall be right on top of it soon!!!!
