Neighbours. Dee isn't a mermaid, she's real. Should she marry Toadie or shall we line up up fro a ring off Mark? Can Finnbea go down the well with all her CD's?

New thread, no spoilers, it makes the spoiler thread feel obsolete.

Just watched the 5 Erinsborough High eps. Anyone else watched?

I’m watching the first one now. Drama!!

I see that Harlow’s mum is Up To No Good.

Do the storywriters only have one plot - stranger turns up to Erinsborough, keeps secrets, deceives everyone, lies and manipulates friends and family, all for some malign purpose?

Well I think they have 2. Stranger/new family turns up and act suspicious but actually they are not is the second.

Must have some kind of secret if you turn up though (and leave a child elsewhere)

Two whole plot lines - I hope they got a raise this year!

Middle class problem yes I watched the Erinsborough High spin off and genuinely enjoyed them loads more than the actual soap at the moment. Although I did say ‘oooh’ out loud when Ritchie said wanker. Twice!

Fucking hell Peirce is such a terrible parent

Let's pick a random date to get married, let's tell Hendrix the date, Hendrix says you didn't check with me I might have plans, and instead of saying check if you have as we can move the date if needed, he goes well we've picked the date now....
Ffs

Crikey. Neighbours does fight club.

😂

Pound shop fight club

Ned’s fake tats are ridiculous too.

Also, where was he stabbed?

Digression alert: Has anyone watched Love Island Australia? When you see how woke Neighbours are trying to be it’s quite a stark reminder of what Australia is really like. The blokes ask say they’re eating for busty women or say that she ‘has a nice rig’. There’s a girl called Margarita in there and the voice over guy keeps calling her different pizza topping names.

It’s like the 90s in there...

That's how I imagine Australia is in certain parts.

What does 'eating for busty women' mean, please, MiddleClassProblem?!

😂 waiting! Waiting for busty women! Fat thumbs x

Haha @middleclass I too wondered what it meant 🙊 lol that makes more sense.

I really don't want Finn and Ellie to get together, but it's looking that way.

Why was Finn wearing glasses in photos? I thought that was part of his Patrick disguise...

Just caught up with the last few episodes. I paid very close attention to Ned's fighting scenes just to see if they'd remembered he'd been stabbed. I was half expecting the other guy to back out after seeing the barely healed wound. I can confirm that 2 weeks is ample time in Erinsborough for a stab wound to completely heal. That, or they thought we'd be too distracted by his chest to notice.

Perhaps there's something in the water there that speeds up the body's ability to heal itself. It could explain all the miraculous recoveries. Someone should do some research into that. Maybe Dr Boo could look into it. Or it could be Dr Mason's specialism, since he himself has benefitted from said healing powers. They must have the same water in Summer Bay.

Maybe Boo and Mason coukd do a cross country collaborative study? Boo coukd take Az to the seaside for a few weeks then Mase could come hang out at Harold's

Yes, even just the current cast, Toadie was never going to walk again, kyle was never going to see again, Susan’s MS rarely has flare ups and hasn’t developed as she’s gotten older, the just left Kirsha was to be deaf forever...

Oh I had forgotten about Kirsha being deaf for a week!

I'm not keen on Ned. Now he's not with Yashvi I don't really see how he fits in. Terese is his ex step mum, so he doesn't really have the family link.

Bea and Elly joking about both having Finn as a boyfriend was weird

didn't lucy go blind once?
n late 1986 she fell down a drain and was trapped for many days. She was eventually found, but was left temporarily blinded by the incident.

just found this
