IhaveChillyToes. Is it just me, but, is there something about what Holly looks like?

In what way?

I was like aggghhhhhh then I realised I got to pick the title ha ha ha

Grin It's a great title! I still see him as Spencer from H&A so I think I'll always luff him. I did notice though, to add to hypothermia-Paige & sleeping-Steph, Jack waited until Paige was injured before he really tried to convince her to dump Mark!

Holly certainly doesn't look anything like Izzy or Karl. They could have at least tried to find an actress with similar hair or something. Presumably Izzy is pregnant / planning to be by the looks of the strategically placed leaflet. I can't decide who the father will be and how long she's staying for.

TheWashingFairyatemyhamster · 20/02/2018 22:09

Is she going to ask Karl to father her baby as she wants another one and would like the baby to be Holly’s full sibling?

Clawdy · 20/02/2018 22:34

Yes, Holly looks different.

Clawdy · 20/02/2018 22:40

She's rather a strange shape.

BreconBeBuggered · 20/02/2018 23:41

Somebody's bound to have noticed this before I did, but Jack looks as if he has somebody's hand up his arse to move his head. Perhaps we'll discover in time that he and Jimmy are related. Hopefully before there's another near miss for Amy and a close relative.
I fucking love Izzy. Always a bit disconcerted by Holly but I've just realised it's because Holly looks like someone I know in rl (who is a total bitch).

Smidge001 · 20/02/2018 23:49

I know it's been a while, but are Terese and Gary still together?

What happened to the green sofa of Lurve?

Why has Paul stopped chasing Terese?

Smidge001 · 20/02/2018 23:50

Oh - I may have remembered - did Terese blackmail him into stopping chasing her or something?

Google stalk says she's 15, but she's playing 11/12?? I think they've over bouffed her hair to make her look younger, combined with being fairly short. She's really pretty

I found you!

I didn’t think izzy’s cleavage was that bad but then I watch a lot of reality tv where what she’s wearing would be conservative Grin

I feel like Aaron saying Jack is moral was a very of the moment comment. Sure he’s and ex priest and a counsellor but mates never see the real way he treats women, shags them when vulnerable, watches them sleep etc. Unintentionally written but a bit relevant atm.

Tyler’s hair is getting more offensive.

And Paige was presumably sober sleeping with Jack, she has a lot of regret for someone who said she missed him yadda yadda...

MiddleClassProblem · 21/02/2018 09:56

I wonder if we should run a spoiler discussion thread simultaneously?

There’s one for the archers that works without taking away from the regular thread.

I also find that knowing spoilers and then seeing it play out is different plus you don’t know the funny little moments or the wooden acting moments or the strange clothing etc which ya always up for discussion and also there’s a few things they manage to keep under wraps.

As long as we comment on both it should work? But maybe it will be too confusing?

It seems like a lot of people want to discuss spoilers though

Lovewineandchocs · 21/02/2018 10:36

Fab title! I HATE Jack, and I’m probably one of the few who used to like him! He was so sleazy and creepy in the Backpackers drooling over Paige dressed as Posh Spice, like he was drooling over Steph sleeping last year. Creepy af. Aaron saying he’s a moral guy, and Max and Philippa apparently only “allowing” Steph to see Charlie (get a lawyer, Steph!) because she was dating Jack just shows how far off the mark they are, they think ex-priest=moral. He hasn’t shown much morality since he shagged a hypothermic Paige in the shed! Him “declaring himself” to Paige when she was injured just shows it’s true what Simone said-he likes broken and vulnerable people. If Steph was involved in some kind of disaster and injured, you can bet he’d run straight to her side. Probably turns him on Grin

*I know it's been a while, but are Terese and Gary still together?

What happened to the green sofa of Lurve?

Why has Paul stopped chasing Terese?*

Gary and Terese got back together a few weeks after the wedding disaster, when Gary collapsed from mixing the wrong cleaning products together and inhaling them-are we sure he should be a chef?! 😂 and declared his love and forgiveness for her. They briefly split up again when Paul blackmailed Gary by giving him and Sheila an alibi for Hamish’s murder in return for ditching Terese. But it turned out Gary and Sheila each thought the other one killed Hamish and neither of them did, so they didn’t need Paul’s alibi. Gary had messed with the crime scene but confessed to the police. Terese found out about the blackmail and threatened to tell the police unless Paul a) left her alone and b) donated $200,000 to a worthy cause (aka the new hospital wing).
The green couch was presumably thrown away/burnt after Gary spray-painted “Cheater” on it and displayed it at the opening of the new Lassiter’s complex Grin

Smidge001 · 21/02/2018 11:49

Thanks! excellent summary!!

MiddleClassProblem · 21/02/2018 11:59

Brilliant summary! I forgot about the cleaning product mixing 😂

Holly is so much prettier IRL. Odd to give Izzy such a frumpy daughter.

@TheWashingFairyatemyhamster that would be brilliant! It'll play up to Karl's ego no end

Hmmalittlefishy · 21/02/2018 14:28

Phew found you!
Something about Jack just really get on my tits, can’t quite put my finger on it
I think it's his personality overnightangel

Is Mark not working now? So they have a large house (with pool) which was remortgaged for Tyler's bail (so that money is lost) with Tyler in prison, Mark not working and Aaron doing....?

Flamantrose · 21/02/2018 14:30

Hi, can I join? Long time Neighbours fan but sadly no one in RL shares my enthusiasm Sad

How can anyone doing scenes with Tyler keep a straight face? That hair!

MiddleClassProblem · 21/02/2018 15:11

Flamantrose welcome!

Hmmalittlefishy Mark is meant to be a mechanic at the garage but I don’t think we’ve seen him there more than once since he started. A bit like his relationship with Paige ok props to Scott for wanting to be around his new baby but could the script writers do a better job of handling it? I’m guessing some of this was film around the actual birth so last minute options to have him off work for a week or two

Aaron has the shed although when he collapsed there no costumers were present so not sure how it’s still in business...
