Does the man never talk to a woman without falling in love?

Still holding out hope for RealDee, but hopes fading fast...

The Lassiters thing was explained by Jasmine thinking that they were related but are not.

I think they wouldn't tarnish Scott and charlene, especially as we know they are still together and we have had other illegitimate children pop up all over the place recently so taking another man down to sperm scatter town (yes, I wrote that because it rhymes) would look like no Ramsey street men can control themselves or use contraception where as Paul has form for this. It's probably on his Tinder profile.

I think the great grandmother could be the step-dad's gran.

The EB on the key was so obvious. I was surprised it took that long for anyone to solve the "mystery".

I feel like I need to go back & watch the episodes but from the synopsis of Kim's storyline in the 80s it seems some kids at school edited something to sound like she'd had sex but she hadn't & her mum freaked out so she ran away & subsequently became pregnant. Both Scott & Paul visited her while she was in hiding. Scott initially ran away with her. Wasn't Paul a nice bloke back then? Would he really have slept with Scott's girlfriend/recent ex? There was also a Father Kevin Barry involved & given that we've already got one priest-daddy storyline, I see no reason they wouldn't throw another one in!

What did EB stand for? I know it was the motel but don't know what the initials were as I was a bit wee in the 80s and today I missed it was playing candy crush

Ah, I see re: Lassiters. I don't think Paul was ever nice post his first wife. Although his womanising seemed to worsen with age. Anyone remember when he broke poor Lyn's heart and then Steph punched him in the face and he nodded as if to say 'I deserved that' 😂

Thanks, Anne! Total never knew it was called that. Who's Erin? 😆

Search for the number of the (recent) old episode you want to watch. Not sure how far they go back, but will definitely have something from a fortnight ago.

So much music but wait... Does Jim tells Scott to "go up stairs and get dressed"? I'm so confused! Upstairs?

MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 09:03

Just watched it all. The moral, raising awareness bit in the middle, the bad scripts and plots worse than what we pick at now but endearing "her name is Kim, seen her on the telly" as acceptable id, the fit priest that looked like Viggo Mortensen, the way Paul cuts tomatoes...

blackcherries · 01/04/2017 09:45

Oh my, that is wonderful! The music! Quite nice that they've kept the original Kim even if she is a bizarre actor. Where is that weird building they go to?

Fl0ellafunbags · 01/04/2017 09:55

Why was Paul sleeping in a drawer under Scott's bed?

summerholsdreamin · 01/04/2017 10:26

That is the funniest thing I've seen in ages. I am old enough to remember Neighbours from the beginning but don't recall that awful background music or such stilted acting!! Grin

MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 10:52

Fl0ellafunbags 😆

No idea where that building is. Some Venetian style ruins in Ansons Corner?

Katz · 01/04/2017 13:03

Were they trying to make out the Robinson house had an upstairs? They mentioned it at least twice.

That catch up was great - thanks. It's from some of the every first episodes too.

Katz · 01/04/2017 13:36

This video has Kims pregnancy on it you get to meet the dad!

Katz · 01/04/2017 13:38

Oh and a scene with young Paul in just his briefs!

MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 13:57

Just up to the bit with Brad. Wasn't homeless Brad the brother's found Asian? Did pp said that post baby birth they proved he wasn't the father?

The David said that Scott and Kim went to the formal together which would have been around the time she got pregnant but she must have been pregnant pre formal if she's still in squats and not really seen Scott other than when she needs stuff. Neighbours messing with the old plot I guess. Just to clarify I think it will be that she and Paul did it at the formal.

She comes across very uptight these days for someone who went through all this. I couldn't picture how she and Paul got together character wise but now seeing the old stuff it seems to make sense. Other than nice guy Paul.

MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 13:59

Forgot to say it's like watching a secondary school play about the morals of teen pregnancy

AGnu · 01/04/2017 14:07

Paul: "I'd do anything for anyone"

Grin

She clearly tells Scott that none of it is his fault & both she & Brad behave as if they're the parents. Unless they're going to suggest she's further along than she thought, I'm not buying it!

MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 14:18

I think it's a rewrite.

I'm guessing there was some refurb which knock down upstairs and extended the house with multiple bedrooms that's why Scott and Paul are in bunk beds. These days there are how many bedrooms? At least 5? Maybe 6?

AGnu · 01/04/2017 14:20

Paul assumed the baby was Scott's. Scott says he never touched her. No hint that either of them thinks there's any chance they could be the father. Any chance Kim is just avoiding Paul because she's embarrassed after everything that happened?!

Katz · 01/04/2017 14:22

The Robinson house is now tha canning house. Which has Shiela Garry Zanthe Amy and jimmy. And Brooke too. So 6 bedrooms

MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 14:36

Oh I forgot about Julie. They do have a lot of rooms "upstairs"

Asheth · 01/04/2017 14:41

Isn't Paul quite a bit older than Scott and therefore Kim? Making him the father would be a bit beyond his normal womanising wouldn't it?
