Therese - wake up and open your eyes and arms to Paul!

Run, Paige, Run!! Mark only wants you for the contents of your womb!

What is with the creepy men at the minute? Finn, Mark, Jack & Gary make my skin crawl.

Probably means an apocalypse is coming!

That must be the entire Doctor quota for Australia.

No, Anne, it's half - the other 3 currently reside in Summer Bay. Nate does seem to go on a lot of road trips on his bike though so I guess he's the one who covers the whole rest of Australia!

I thought that too when Roo mentioned finding Martha - I know where she needs to look! I started fantasising about a Neighbours/H&A crossover storyline - Martha changed her appearance slightly & took on Ellie's identity. Roo could come to Erinsborough & wander into Harold's, where Ellie would be having coffee with Susan & would suddenly remember something really important that she had to do & slip out before Roo sees her. Susan & Roo would chat but without realising their connection, Ellie would watch nervously from the shadows... It'd be amazing! Grin

Clive Gibbons appears to have morphed into one of those characters like Tim Collins that pops up every now and then as a plot device. Possibly like that strange woman that Karl once dated.

Dr Baby David will never challenge Karl's position of all round ÜberDoctor so maybe they'll strike him off or suspend him for a bit (oh joy if we have to have him moping around whinging to Amy and Paige about his sad life whilst they pull 'concerned' faces even though we know that their brains are just saying "me me me! How does this affect me?!"). I'm sure Karl has been suspended about a bazillion times and is still practising all areas of medicine.

Also, did anyone notice that Mark mentioned his mum when he was at the vineyard. What's the betting Mama Brennan will turn up soon. Maybe she'll fight Sheila for the heart of Dr Clive.

woodhill · 06/07/2017 22:17

Yes, love the way characters randomly turn up in Neighbours or move in.

No, don't like Dr Gibbons with Sheila.

Ah, Gnu, I haven't watched Home & Away since was Roo was a teen, so stunned she is old enough to be Horse-Face's mum.

I used to totally love Dr Clive back in the 80s, almost as much as I loved Paul. Still love Paul.

But if Roo came to Erinsborough to find Martha/Ellie and then bumped into Jack her mind would explode. Maybe he and Spencer were identical twins separated at birth.

SNAP.

Actually they have perfected Paul at the moment. That mix between hard ambitious business man, sad and longing looks (after business lady who's seemingly not interested - now Therese, previously Gail) mixed with the confidence that he'll win her back eventually. Oh and the cheeky smile .

Absolutely Smidge. Paul is perfection. Love him.

Paul does have a rather lovely twinkle in his eye lately

Excited101 · 07/07/2017 21:48

Shhhhhhhhh!! Did nobody get the memo?!

You're not allowed to mention Home and Away on here.... You get told off

Clawdy · 07/07/2017 22:24

Loved wicked Paul tonight! Grin

She's changed over the years, what with having a different head.

Samcro · 07/07/2017 23:16

how old is Shelia ?

Fl0ellafunbags · 08/07/2017 06:53

Seems there's a ten year age gap. I really need to get out more.

Could have sworn Sheila celebrated her 60th birthday in Neighbours recently or maybe that was the joke. I thought she looked nearer 70 so I was right.

MiddleClassProblem · 08/07/2017 11:40

So I googled. She had a 60th party in September and that's when she got the exercise bike. Might have been when Kyle popped back.

Is Clive the same age as Paul? Paul had is 50th recently. Not sure if it's a timehop issue or fan page being inaccurate.

Samcro · 08/07/2017 11:41

i thought she was older. so not a massive gap then

MiddleClassProblem · 08/07/2017 12:10

I think they dress her quite old too. Looking at pics on the internet, she's more trendy than Sheila. I'm not sure if they chose to do that because of her age or her character.

woodhill · 08/07/2017 12:44

So Neighbours is contradicting itself. I make her 67 if she was born in 1950 not 60.

woodhill · 08/07/2017 12:45

Or 66 possibly

Fl0ellafunbags · 08/07/2017 16:21

Things we've learned today:

Sheila is a cougar.

Clive has erm fairly broad taste in men.

Paul is and will always be a legend.
