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

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

Well it's clear from that that Scott "never touched her" and Paul only met her once st the squat before she got pregnant. Def a rewrite in order unless it's someone else completely...

woodhill · 01/04/2017 14:55

Yes, he would be sleeping with a "child". Haven't watched clips but will do it when no one is around.

Algebraic · 01/04/2017 14:59

Anyone notice how it's far less prudish that it is these days?! Lots of talk of sex, the pill, abortions... remember when Sky and Boyd were planning to lose their virginity to each other and nobody actually said the word sex? Just lots of knowing looks and veiled comments.

I'm really confused, isn't the name "Bradley" on the twins' birth certificates, or have I got it round my neck completely?

AGnu · 01/04/2017 15:03

I don't think there is a dad on the birth certificate, they just found a record of someone called Brad being removed from the hospital to be kept away from their mum, or something!

I swear they've grown though!

How is shelia getting a new kitchen?
Didnt her dil just scam the neighbors

AnneEyhtMeyer · 01/04/2017 16:13

Those two links were fabulous!

Looking back now, I can't believe I thought it was so brilliant back in the day! And Paul! Being nice! With no trousers! With two legs!

Those clips categorically prove the dad is not Paul or Scott. I will be v angry indeed if they re-write history.

If or when 😁😔

AnneEyhtMeyer · 01/04/2017 17:23

It's going to be bloody when, isn't it? Grrr!

OP posts:
MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 17:23

Unless this isn't when she was pregnant with the twins... I mean maybe she lost this baby? Or am I reaching?

AnneEyhtMeyer · 01/04/2017 17:24

Clutching at straws, but possible in Erinsborough!

OP posts:
MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 17:35

Did she's have the twins on screen or talked about on screen? Did we see her and Scott go to the formal?

Off to see if I can find a formal ep...

AnneEyhtMeyer · 01/04/2017 17:44

I honestly can't remember. I don't think so.

OP posts:
MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 17:55

On wiki and perfect blend it suggest that she leaves after reconciling with her mum and I'm assuming there was no formal plot before that as it seems to be one of Scott's first plots (I wasn't even 1 so no recollection but probably "watching"😁).

AGnu · 01/04/2017 18:09

Just scoured DS spoilers for hints about the dad & it might be worth a read for anyone who can't wait... Nothing specific but something might be deducible from later storylines...

AnneEyhtMeyer · 01/04/2017 18:24

Well she made up with her mum at the end of that second set of clips, so it looks like she left then.

This was right back at the very beginning of Neighbours. I thought it was the best programme ever. I still do!

OP posts:
MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 18:56

It's like home

MiddleClassProblem · 01/04/2017 19:01

AGnu I think it's how you interpret a certain word iyswim. That's what I read it as anyway lol.

woodhill · 01/04/2017 19:58

Loving the clips

Carnal relations indeed. Scott said he was 18. Did next Scott arrive quickly afterwards.

Music awful.

Was the Taylor's House, the Turners but you longer see the front?

I'm sure the bunk bed room was downstairs as there was no clumping up the stairs and Helen seemed to follow him. Thought it was a bungalow, only the Willis house seemed to have stairs.

woodhill · 01/04/2017 20:00

Oh and Bradley's bad mullet. Was he a pimp in the squat?

Don't see the sea in the park now.

Lovewineandchocs · 01/04/2017 20:20

MiddleClass I was thinking that, but did Kim say something about them being 30? They'd have been born in 1986 in that case as I don't think they've had their birthday since arriving in Erinsborough. Unless they were conceived straight after her losing the first pregnancy, which is always possible given how they shoehorned in all of Brad and Lauren's kids! 😀 They definitely, if not re-wrote, at least messed about a bit with history re Brad and Lauren. Lauren had chlamydia when in Ramsay St and Pam said her chances of pregnancy were greatly reduced. Brad buggered off to work on a cruise ship for about 3 months and broke up with her when he came back, then she stayed for another few months, joined that cult etc. Then left to work in the stables she had worked in previously. According to the retconned Neighbours plot she was 6 months pregnant when she left Ramsay St-now I'm pretty sure someone would have noticed and also that she wouldn't have taken a job working with horses since she was that far along. I also think when she came back in 2013 that the writers originally wrote Mason as being Brad's son then changed direction when they saw he wasn't popular with audiences.
Anyway, if they can play fast and loose with history in that plot, and add frankly unbelievable twists like Jill Ramsay (just how many affairs can a couple have between them and still be together?!) I think they will re-write Kim's story in a way that will discredit certain characters and enrage us Grin

AnneEyhtMeyer · 01/04/2017 20:24

Just did a quick search and apparently Original Scott's last episode was number 170 and Jason Donovan started in episode number 188, so very quick turnover.

Why did they axe the first Scott, he seemed reasonable. Even Kim's acting was better, the actress hasn't aged well.
