Yeah, I think Willow definitely has more storyline opportunities.

The Steph and Paul thing came about from him swapping her drugs out and trying to send her crazy, there was a car crash, shit got deep, Jimmy was in there somewhere to but actually they became genuine friends and Paul is very loyal too her. I like their friendship as two outsiders. Has Steph caused more deaths than Ringo? I can't remember. It's her relationship history that just messes people about (and her kids) but this time it's Sonya the baby pusher's fault 😂

AnneEyhtMeyer · 17/03/2017 22:13

I think she faked the DNA test by going through Toadie's box of Dee memorabilia and getting a hair from an old hair brush. Then, when she was asked for a swab said "can't I give you a hair?" and pretended to pull a hair out of the back of her head, but actually gave the real-Dee hair.

I am still a Dee-liever, though, I think she just doesn't realise she is real Dee. I mean, come on, you can look incredibly like someone, but how do you coincidentally have exactly the same voice???

I thought Piper looked very grown up today when she was at school with her hair down. I wondered if the new horrible teacher was going to target her?

I like the regular reappearances of Lucas. He directs a lot of episodes I think, so I suppose it is easy to get him to go to the other side of the camera now and again.

That makes sense, in an Erinsborough sort of way - I did wonder as I really liked his protectiveness of her the last couple of weeks. When you read a character's storyline on their page in wiki, the entire synopsis of their life story is very enjoyable, Paul's is a doozy :D Aparently he was a peaceful happy air steward until his first wife tried to kill him, after which...

AnneEyhtMeyer · 17/03/2017 22:18

Paul was a lovely smiley air steward in the beginning, best mates with Des. But I prefer him as he is now. Love Paul!

Ah, yes, that makes sense as she told Sindi she broke in, got the box and was wafting the perfume round to get Toadie primed before she reappeared from the Deep. I like the theories that Dee is Dee and doesn't know it. Maybe Sindhi thinks she discovered someone she could convince to be Dee but neither know she is Dee. Or she and her not-then-dead sister will have become identical twins since her sister was last in it (jumps over plot hole neatly) and Fake Dee is twin Dee and real Dee was killed off twice.

horizontilting · 17/03/2017 22:25

Evil Paul was often the only thing with watching for in dry periods. The storyline where he knew the Toadie and Steph were faking their love affair and Dan was the father of Steph's baby was awesome, waiting for him to reveal and then he plays a tape in the pub...I am quite glad to have been pulled back into Neighbours :D

blackcherries · 17/03/2017 22:29

Thanks... ashamed to say I read this whole thread trying to piece the Dee storyline together! So is she saying her name is Dee or Andrea? Who is/was Emily? Have we seen Sindi back yet?

There should be a rule in Neighbours that they can't recycle character names. I'm assuming 'Angus' isn't the Angus that Rachel Kinski ran off with... I also thought there'd already been a Piper but that was Pepper. Is Tim the same Tim Collins that Toadie worked with back in the day? There's been a couple of Marks too, right?( Mark Gottlieb?) And a Nell Mangel. Did I see Stonefish back recently too? That was confusing.

Is Mark Brennan meant to be related to Beth Brennan?
I stopped watching around the time there was a storyline about Callum's real parents - is Sonya related to Callum (and where is he?)
Sorry for questions.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 17/03/2017 22:46

In order...

  1. She is saying to everyone she is Dee, but we know her "real" name is Andrea.
  2. If she is FakeDee then Emily doesn't exist.
  3. Yes, Sindi has been back, and was back again the other day. They are splitting the proceeds (although I think Dee has run away without paying up)
  4. No he isn't
  5. Piper and Pepper are totally separate characters
  6. Yes, Tim Collins is Paul's old solicitor who Toadie has worked with. He wants to be Mayor.
  7. Yes
  8. Yes
9, Yes he was 10. I'm not sure but I don't think so 11. Yes, Sonya is Callum's biological mother. They changed the plot midway through and said the reason she got to know Toadie with the guide dog puppies was because she was trying to get close to Callum.

Anne thanks so much!! Looking forward to next week!

MiddleClassProblem · 17/03/2017 22:58

Did he have a hairbrush? If so wouldn't they have tested it against that rather than the sister stuff?

AnneEyhtMeyer · 17/03/2017 23:08

Yes I'm sure that's where the hair came from Middle.

Sorry, Anne, I'm more questioning the policing that you x

AnneEyhtMeyer · 17/03/2017 23:34

How dare you question the Erinsborough police, Middle. I am stunned that you would doubt their professionalism and efficacy for even an instant.

Anyone remember what happened with Elly's mysterious headaches? Or was that just forgotten about?

chocoshopoholic · 18/03/2017 17:29

Was neighbours on on Friday? There isn't an episode on my5.

MiddleClassProblem · 18/03/2017 20:02

No headaches mentioned again.

There was a Friday ep but if one of the schedulers cocked up it may take a while to get added to on demand

TheSecretMrsFairbrother · 19/03/2017 14:58

I don't want to cause a riot but has anyone else seen the news that Neighbours may be taken off British TV?
Something to do with renewing the contract with channel five.

WIBU to immediately emigrate to Australia if that happens?

woodhill · 19/03/2017 14:59

Hope not, oh no

blackcherries · 19/03/2017 16:04

Friday's ep is on My5 but it's somehow gone between 9 and 10 May.

No, YOU spent all of naptime catching up...

TheSecretMrsFairbrother · 19/03/2017 16:04

A petition! Which one of you set that up?!

blackcherries · 19/03/2017 16:06

^ between 9 and 10 March episodes in the list, I mean!
