Can we not keep going in the alternate universe? I want Susan and Phil to be reality. But why wasn't Dee still alive?

Looking forward to next week though - I hope Therese doesn't go back with Gary.

Digital spy and social media mostly

Stalker 😵😵😵😵😵

MiddleClassProblem · 12/02/2018 10:09

I’m behind you right now in a non Weinstein way

SleepingStandingUp · 12/02/2018 10:46

Can you bring coffee?

MiddleClassProblem · 12/02/2018 10:54

Lovewineandchocs · 12/02/2018 14:33

Oh I’m the worst stalker ever of them-I don’t really comment on their photos or anything though, mostly look at their Instagram etc to see who has left or who is coming in Grin

Why were they holding an import business meeting in a bar?

The glass bit was like watching an episode of casualty.

MiddleClassProblem · 12/02/2018 22:13

Who’s watching?

Tyler would never have fitted into the same denim outfit as Ben

Clawdy · 12/02/2018 22:21

That glass-in-pool bit was strangely scary for Neighbours.

MiddleClassProblem · 12/02/2018 22:30

I know! Tension building!

What is Mark? Mr Darcy? Why is he ginger? It’s mkre like a bad wig party. Surely some could use their own hair?

scrappydappydoo · 12/02/2018 22:42

Worst disguises ever!

MiddleClassProblem · 12/02/2018 22:47

Why didn’t they cut his hair more? It doesn’t look sensationally different...

Who is Angie meant to be?

MiddleClassProblem · 12/02/2018 23:00

I enjoyed that!

But what I really don’t understand is why Paige is happy for Jack to have Gabe when he’s on the mezzanine at the hostel, open to all sorts of people band they left him up there alone when her sister had such trouble living there. Anyway!

MorningsEleven · 12/02/2018 23:58

They scooped her off the tarmac like a dollop of strawberry jam...

SleepingStandingUp · 12/02/2018 23:59

What????? Who? I've not watched

MiddleClassProblem · 13/02/2018 00:07

I have no idea what Morning is on about. Izzy?

I am fully spoilers up too so not sure it’s relevant in any future eps either...

MorningsEleven · 13/02/2018 00:09

In fairness she's not landed yet...

When I re-open the well I'm copying not-Tomato's shit henchman and putting glass in it.

AGnu · 13/02/2018 01:32

Piper's not actually going to die, is she? Before she screamed for him I thought maybe she was risking her life as a huge distraction knowing that the police would divert all available resources to rescuing her, thus allowing Tyler to escape. I'm so glad he didn't fall - I thought that was the direction the story was heading after the trailer. A fall like that would've messed with his pretty face!

YY to the glass tension. It really got to me!

The scene with Paige & Jack bothered me. Gabe allegedly just shouted "dadda" once but when they got up there he looked like he'd been properly crying & had a bottle. I know he's big for his age... but he's a little young yet to be getting himself a bottle to drown his sorrows! Then after cooing at him briefly his parents start making out right next to his cot then, presumably, proceed to have sex about a metre away from him while he's still awake. Hmm Am hoiking my judgy pants...

How long until Mark is proposing to someone else? Back with Steph? Or Ellie? Or someone different, for a change - Sheila? Maybe Izzy if she's sticking around? Or Susan if Karl runs off with Izzy again?! I'm predicting that Paige & Jack will continue with their respective relationships/giving each other sideways looks until after Tyler's trial, at which point Mark will be so overwhelmed with Paige's support that he'll rummage through his ring-drawer to find one he's not used yet. He'll propose in front of everyone causing Jack to stare at them, Paige will run out, Jack goes after her followed by Steph & Mark only to see Jack & Paige across the lake in the gazebo thing kissing. Or Paige will be pregnant again & we'll have months of "who's the daddy?" tension to look forward to.

Talking of Izzy, did she say "my" or "your" inheritance? Who's it from? Am guessing Izzy married some ailing old man & convinced him to leave them all his money. Unless Holly isn't Karl's after all?! I can't remember now but surely Susan wouldn't have let Izzy get away with not playing the scrapey-scrapey game?! Libby's a bit old to have fallen for any tricks to fake the DNA...

Any guesses who the random new bloke hiding in plain sight Paul's place is?

The camera angles & lighting were different to a normal episode. Also, the costumes confused me. I didn't recognise half of them - maybe Aussie 90s things? Why was Toadie whinging about there not being enough people? Even without the 5 people who cancelled at the last minute, then uncancelled, there were plenty of random extras milling around to make up the numbers! Aaaand another thing, I can't see Piper wanting to go as Britney & Justin. Were there no famous female politicians or feminists in the 90s?!

I'll stop now. I stayed up late to watch it after DH went to bed - I think the tiredness is getting to me...!

Petalflowers · 13/02/2018 02:34

I occasionally only get to see Neighbours now, but was flicking through the channels this evening and there it was, with all the old characters I used to watch when dcs were young - Karl and Susan ( my favourite soap couple ever), Paul, Toadie and Izzy (although I know most have been in it continuously).

Quite enjoyed the storyline, and in true soap fashion, managed to get up to speed with what was happening, although can someone explain to me why Toadie was having a 21 birthday party.

Also, last time I saw it, there was a storyline about a possible real/fake Sonia, and now another ex(?) has appeared out of the woodwork.

I remember the previous encounters with Izzy and hate what she did to Karl and Susan. Izzy is obviously after Karl. She obviously plans to somehow buy his happiness. I don’t think the daughter knows this.

Rambling on now so time to go to bed.

Petalflowers · 13/02/2018 02:35

The bloke hiding in plain site had a burnt back, so I guess he was in a fire connected to Paul, and blames Paul.

SleepingStandingUp · 13/02/2018 07:58

He won a competition to have a wish come true. His wife is on maternity leave and took their kid do his mates fixed the competition to cheer him up

woodhill · 13/02/2018 08:02

Is the hour long one repeated at all. I forgot to record but otherwise will watch on catch up

AGnu · 13/02/2018 08:31

I did wonder about the fire thing - the one that killed Gus Cleary was back in 2004. I'd guess this new bloke would've been a teenager back then. I don't really remember the fire - was anyone else involved? If he here for revenge for that fire I'll rapidly lose interest - had that storyline already with Kate's death. I'm predicting another full romance story for Amy before she discovers that he was using her to get to Paul. He'll have fallen in love with her for real but she'll dump him anyway & he'll go away again.

I can't see why Izzy would be interested in Karl - she only ever wanted him for his money & she's got plenty of that now!

thisisreallyfunny · 13/02/2018 09:00

I just tried to search for it on my sky box, I don't think it is going to be repeated

MorningsEleven · 13/02/2018 09:58

Any guesses who the random new bloke hiding in plain sight Paul's place is?

Jason off of Corrie Wink I was wondering if he was a product of Ramsay St super spunk, so either Brad's, Karl's or Paul's. Paulie has got quite a variety of children so some random from Manchester would fit right in.

Surely Piper is gonna fall, unless she's got spiderman superpowers. Or Tyler rescues her and gets sent to the big house. I don't understand why they didn't abscond during the night and why he was so not bothered that she'd wiped out his bank account and why there were so many police for a man who smacked a bloke with one of Sheila's garden gnomes. Hamish only died because he fell in the hot tub of Gary love juice and was so traumatised that he lost the will to live.
I've just had a new idea for the well- it's wrong and disturbing so I might park it for now.
