Neighbours Spoilers - a peek down the well

[SleepingStandingUp]

PLEASE BE WARNED THIS CONTAINS SPOILERS, GOSSIP AND GENERAL HILARITY.

SO, what do you know??

middle yeah maybe. That bit of script on Insta a while ago was Piper telling Terese that Cassius had gone to Sydney to visit his mum in hospital. He’d asked Piper to go but she didn’t feel she could just take off. Maybe Terese persuades Piper to go, and then discoveries are made. I’m almost sure there was an Insta story of Ben and Bonnie filming in Sydney so that would make sense if Ned and Bea try to track her down.

Ok this might be a big one on insta. Simone Buchanan posted this pic in her insta story. At first I thought it was a personal shot but then I saw the EH paper bottom left.

Who is Nicolas tho?

And Dr Vega but maybe they are a nurse and dr? Rather than patient?

Also it was posted at the same time as a shot of the 8000th ep cake and 5hrs before she wrapped on the Harold’s set (in Christmas decor) so it makes me think it was the morning shoot. Could it be Dipi after her stunt?

Actually zooming in I think Dippi is a good call

Yeah probably Dipi after being knocked out.

Some spoilers for 1-5 October:

Monday 1 October (7941)
Xanthe takes her concerns about the painkillers to Karl, which in turn forces Aaron to admit that the problem is his. Ned and Bea exchange a romantic kiss in the botanical gardens. Pavan and his mother Meena visit from Sydney, but Meena is less than impressed with Mishti and cuts the trip short.

Tuesday 2 October (7942)
Ned is on cloud nine, but Bea gently lets him down, explaining that she is not yet ready for romance. Cassius and Piper tumble into bed together after he reveals his plans for her birthday. Gary lets himself down by having a contretemps with Shane, which leads Steph to withdraw his permanent contract. This in turn renders him ineligible for the bank loan that he was counting on.

Wednesday 3 October (7943)
Cassius hears from his mother and realises that the net is closing around him. He resolves to flee the country but asks Piper to come away with him. Gary has a problem when a new guest introduces herself as Nance Sluggett, Jeremy's mother, who has come to pick up his money. Gary has no choice but to admit that the cash is gone, but Nance's reaction is milder than he expected.

Thursday 4 October (7944)
Ned, Bea and Terese confront Piper with the information they have discovered about Cassius. Piper is stunned but slips away to meet Cassius before he departs. Elissa, newly arrived in town, intercepts a letter confessing to Hamish's murder that Cassius was to send to the police, but is spotted by Aaron.

Friday 5 October (7945)
Piper's family and friends start searching for her, knowing that she has gone to see Cassius but is unaware of his connection to Hamish. Bea and Ned hit the road after finding the car that Cassius has just sold. Lassiter's has a potentially important client in multi-millionaire Pierce Grayson, who soon discovers Chloe's sideline but is not bothered in the slightest.

I think Dr Vega was Xanthe’s doctor too, wasn’t he/she? Not that we saw a doctor with her other than Clive and David! If the pic is from the 8000th episode then that’s before the NYE one when Dipi gets knocked out. They usually have patient name and doctor’s written above the bed, don’t they. So maybe Nicola Skall or whatever it says is a new character?

Maybe, a new mystery character. Probably Dee...

Ooh, my first thought was that's real Dee, but if EH stands for Erinsborough High then it can't be.

What do Bea and Ned discover about Cassius if they still don't know he's Hamish's son?

EH would just be Erinsborough Hospital, right?

Oh yes, oops But it still can't be Dee then cos Karl works in every hospital department (mostly single-handedly) and would have noticed her.

Lol I was joking about Dee. She’s just my answer to everything 😁

If Aaron sees Elissa then they probably figured out he’s her son at the very least.

Who's Simone?

scooby Simone Buchanan, who used to play Sam Fitzgerald and is now a director of Neighbours.

So, it seems Denise Drysdale won’t be playing Sheila’s sister after all. It definitely said somewhere that she would be, though Anyway, she’ll be playing Namce Sluggett, Jeremy’s mother.

The Dipi/Clive storyline is now silly. If she could make teabags then why all the fuss about needing fresh ingredients?

I'm glad the Cassius storyline has an end date. Is the actress who plays Piper staying?

Did Piper not defer her university course for a year? I've completely lost track, at one point I thought she should have started university in February this year but maybe that's just because I felt the Tyler prison thing dragged on. So is she going to be going to university in February 2019, is that it?

bolleaux yes she did, so that would be a good exit storyline if she is leaving.

bolleaux yes she did, so that would be a good exit storyline if she is leaving.

She’s been filming recently so she’s still about st Christmas at least.

Elly’s Insta it seems Xanthe is very recently brunette. Hot gossip. They’re on a production break so it’s slow news week!

No doubt Tyler will have magically passed some kind of HSC equivalency test in prison and will get a special miscarriage of justice scholarship to an amaze balls Uni which also has the world’s best degree in vlogging and he and Piper will head off there together never to be seen again, but only mentioned any time that Therese has shagged someone at work and needs to get away sharpish.

Will this mean that Therese is living in that big house with only her stepson for company? I guess Leo can move in once Paul finds out about him and Therese and excommunicates him. Bleurgh.

middle yes and her brunette hairdo and the fact she’s going to LA soon-together with her being around 3 years on the show-have led to speculation that she’s leaving. I suppose it’ll be easy enough to tell if she’s back filming after this production break.

There really need a young ‘ins injection. And it normally takes a while to warm up to them too.
