Starting a new thread as the old one is nearly full.

Still catching up after my holiday, only a couple of episodes behind now.

Therese's brother is a really Dr Evil, isn't he? I hope he gets caught soon. I love Paul!

It wouldn't necessarily mean him leaving, but it's a sad story-line. Yes, he did used to be so much more fun! The House of Trouser.....Grin

AnneEyhtMeyer · 10/08/2015 22:15

Have just seen something about this on Digital Spy. I'm very surprised the old injury was 9 years ago. I would have said 2-3 years max!

I miss the House of Trouser!
Did they ever figure out what happened to Connor? He just disappeared without a trace didn't he?

AnneEyhtMeyer · 11/08/2015 21:17

Connor came back a few years ago, didn't he?

Connor came back and they re-hashed the 'house of trouser' thing but tbh it was a bit embarrassing, like when grown adults have a 'school disco' theme party.

What happened to Ezra? Just realised that storyline disappeared.

IthoughtATMwasacashpoint · 14/08/2015 17:57

Highabove.

He had also assaulted his son's girlfriend, she came forward and Ezra was arrested

skillsandtea · 15/08/2015 08:42

So will Amy get rid of that awful checked shirt now that she'll be Paul's EA?

AGnu · 15/08/2015 21:35

Probably but we'll have to put up with her pretending like she can't walk in high heels!

MagpieCursedTea · 17/08/2015 18:53

Whatshername propositioning Josh! Shock

mollie123 · 18/08/2015 07:07

not to mention her ripped jeans which complete the 'worker' look Hmm

GoogleBoggle · 18/08/2015 15:03

Josh and Aaron (particularly Aaron) are just terrible, terrible dancers! I cringe and cringe every time they are clumsily swaying and posing around. It's just awful!

AGnu · 18/08/2015 15:29

Oh good, I'm glad it's not just me! Their dancing is just embarrassing! I have no idea why Neighbours chose an actor who looks & sounds like a Canning & can't dance to be an exotic-dancing Brennan! Confused Josh is showing him up & has only been dancing for 5 minutes! Surely Kip Gamblin Brad could've given them some dancing tips?! Different style of dance but there's some basic principles like, y'know, moving in a non-wooden/jerky way... Hmm

CaptainSwan · 18/08/2015 22:29

What I don't get is what quite happened about Paul not having cancer... Terase's brother was horrific yet after he went (arrested?) it all seemed to get brushed under the carpet. I spent that whole storyline looking forward to Paul's reaction when he found out and then nothing really happened! Definitely the biggest let down this year.

Love love love Paige and Brennan...

AGnu · 18/08/2015 23:22

Once he was arrested it was obviously all fine & done with. Why would Paul be at all traumatised or upset by the experience? It's just one of those things, could happen to anyone & there's clearly no need for any court case or future reference to it because being told you're going to die is such an every day occurrence! Wink

MagpieCursedTea · 19/08/2015 16:32

Excuse my Brad related ignorance, but why would the actor that plays him give out dance tips? What did I miss?

AnneEyhtMeyer · 19/08/2015 16:50

Brad actor isn't a dancer, but the Matt actor was a ballet dancer, so I think there is some confusion upthread.

OP posts:
AnneEyhtMeyer · 19/08/2015 16:54

Oh just doubted myself and googled and apparently Brad actor was a ballet dancer too.

How come they never got the pair of them dancing then? Surely they could have fought over Lauren in a ballet-dream-sequence? That would have totally been acceptable as a Neighbours plot.

OP posts:
CaptainSwan · 19/08/2015 19:58

Matt could still dance, maybe in a dream! It is neighbours after all...

AnneEyhtMeyer · 19/08/2015 20:25

That's true, Captain, Neighbours scriptwriters aren't averse to a good dream sequence or indeed ghost.

OP posts:
AGnu · 20/08/2015 14:02

I'd love a Brad/Matt ballet-off dream! Grin I doubt it'll happen though. Lauren would have to experience some amount of guilt for going after Brad to have such a dream & I've not seen any hint of that yet! Lauren's previous Brad dancing dreams were pretty good....

CaptainSwan · 20/08/2015 19:21

Daniel is such a fig, he's literally got all the crap attributes everyone labeled him as when he was first with Amber and is now proving them right! They all said he fell too hard for every girl he meets and he's too dreamy and ridiculous. They're now all loving him getting with Imogen too (who, by the way could have at least kept Amber in the loop with her and Daniel!)

I actually really really liked him when he first got together with Amber and then he turned into a twat, disappointing.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 20/08/2015 21:42

I'm catching up.

Can't believe that Imogen slept with Daniel on their first night. However if anyone offered to be my Gilbert Blyth I may be swept off my feet...

OP posts:
AGnu · 20/08/2015 22:25

I've not read the book. Maybe I will to try & figure out why sensible Imogen would get so carried away like that! I can't believe she's not even discussed it with Amber. I'd have thought her reaction to the public declaration of adoration would be to be completely horrified & embarrassed & run away, talk to Amber, draw up a pros/cons list & then turn up on his doorstep & rant at him until he kissed her to make her shut up!

AnneEyhtMeyer · 21/08/2015 07:45

Trust me, all that goes out of the window at the thought of Gilbert Blyth, AGnu.

I loved that he mentioned the tv miniseries too! That is an all time classic, and all Anne of Green Gables fans love it! That was probably the most realistic bit of scriptwriting I've ever seen on Neighbours in over 30 years. Grin
