It's years since I watched Neighbours and Home & Away. Watched Neighbours recently and I am amazed to find out that the actres that plays Elly is Martha from Home & Away! She looks like a different person! Anyone else noticed?

What? Spencer is in neighbours?
They got rid of his brother too.

And I forgot about Therese, another cross over.

And Brad Willis used to be Scott Hunter.

Irene's son, the one who raped Billie in h&a was Todd in neighbours and Mason in h&a was Noah in neighbours, the one who had a crush on Kate and she kissed him when she was a teacher and got into trouble. He didn't have the curly hair then so looked really different.

MommaGee · 01/03/2017 22:12

Lets face it, if you wren't in both you aren't anyone in Australia lol

TheWashingFairyatemyhamster · 01/03/2017 22:43

Mason looks very irritating

TheWashingFairyatemyhamster · 01/03/2017 22:45

And the bloke that plays Zac Maguire on H&A played an arsonist fireman on Neighbours. I think he went out with Steph.

MommaGee · 03/03/2017 01:05

Ash from H&A needs to be in more stiff just cos he's hot

TheWashingFairyatemyhamster · 03/03/2017 07:28

Freudian slip Momma?

MommaGee · 03/03/2017 14:48

Hahaha oops

ChoccyJules · 04/03/2017 23:15

Wow, yes, that bad guy IS Todd! Can see it when you know.
I found out recently that Ash is actually from New Zealand and is putting on an Oz accent. So there's a useless fact for you Smile
Also I don't watch Neighbours anymore but it came on after H&A the other day and I saw Rebecca Thingummy who was Sophie (?) In H&A ages ago.

Excited101 · 06/03/2017 11:11

Noooooo, Mason?! I can't believe he was Noah!

PensPencilsAndRulers · 06/03/2017 16:34

TheWashing ah yes I remember zac on neighbours now you've said it! Toadie rescued her didn't she, wasn't it a cottage in the countryside or something?
Also Romeo from home and away was in neighbours first, he was the guy who tried to attack 'didge' (most annoying character ever) and she pushed him down the stairs and killed him.
There have been a few others. Jess on home and away (the one Heath had an affair with and had Harley) was on neighbours, she stayed with the cannings when they turned their house into an air bnb.
There have been others too but I ant remember them at the moment.

PensPencilsAndRulers · 06/03/2017 16:36

Did you know, Heath from home and away and Daniel from neighbours are somehow related in real life? I think they might be brother-in-laws or something.

lottieandmia · 06/03/2017 16:37

I haven't watched Neighbours for years but the Dee back from the dead storyline is interesting.

PensPencilsAndRulers · 06/03/2017 16:37

And also, sorry for the 'random facts about home and away and neighbours' derail, but Rebecca elmaglou or however you spell her name (Terese on neighbours/Sophie home and away) is judie dench's cousin Shock.

PensPencilsAndRulers · 06/03/2017 16:41

I remembered another one, VJ on home and away was Paige's adoptive brother in neighbours. I'm sure he played a twenty odd year old man in neighbours and then joined home and away as a 17 year old Confused.

ZackyVengeance · 06/03/2017 16:48

pens no heath is vj's BIL in rl

PensPencilsAndRulers · 06/03/2017 16:54

Haha yes I just googled and realised! I'm almost 100% sure Heath and Daniel are related though! I remember reading an interview when Daniel was starting neighbours saying Heath had been giving him advice on his new role. I can't find the article now but I'm sure I read it!

PensPencilsAndRulers · 06/03/2017 16:57

Also just found out in the last hour (when looking for said article) that in rl Heath goes out with the girl who Matt was dating a couple of weeks ago to distract him from Evie, can't think of her name now.

ZackyVengeance · 06/03/2017 16:57

daniel was in H& away once

PensPencilsAndRulers · 06/03/2017 16:58

Wonder if it's a bit awkward for Heath and vj on set at the moment. Heath was married to vj's sister but apparently he cheated on her with the one Matt was dating.

Archie Maddock Tim Phillipps Archie lives on the streets and finds a terrified Melody Jones and takes her under his wing. He defends her against thugs. Miles Copeland later finds him and he tells him of Melody's whereabouts.
