Home and Away era Hanging out at Salt with Dean

[SleepingStandingUp]

New thread for H&A chatter natter. No spoilers on this one pls

[CurbsideProphet]

Poor Justin

[CurbsideProphet]

Poor guy might crack up soon.

I'm really glad to see Tori back. I think she's one of the most believable characters.

[AppropriateAdult]

Yes, I love Tori too, glad to have her back.

Jasmine has really grown on me too. And she’s a much better actor than poor old Robbo, bless him. She and Colby were really affecting in those scenes.

Every time I see Alex, I’m just thinking “She’s still wearing the same shirt! Please, somebody, let her go home and change!”

H&A knocking it out if the park lately. I love these long drawn-out storylines with the big dramatic conclusion... will find it very hard to be interested in Jade v Ryder or the [yawn] new family now.

[flowerzpowerz]

I’ve loved the last few episodes, but sorry, the fact that Leah, a much loved and long term friend to many in the bay is still missing and NOONE seems upset, worried, is out there searching etc is just ridiculous. She’s literally been mentioned in passing a couple of times in the last week or so and that’s it?

Surely the police would be keeping whoever updated and actively out there searching? Alf seemed really cut up at the beginning, but that didn’t last long and is more worried about proposing to Martha (don’t like them two as a couple btw, can’t stand Martha, so self absorbed)

I know it’s not real btw but it’s all so unrealistic how everyone seems to just have forgotten about/ not bothered about Leah.

[AiryFairy1]

I was thinking the same thing about Alex’s shirt, poor girl!
Agree re Alf and Martha ... so cringey, and I guess there’ll be a big wedding n all 🙄
Poor Leah is out of sight out of mind I guess her friends are all grieving or supporting the grieving or busy being wrinkly lovebirds
And Jade 😡😡😡

[AppropriateAdult]

Surely the police would be keeping whoever updated and actively out there searching?

Yep. In reality this would be a murder investigation by now.

[CurbsideProphet]

Alex was wearing a different top today!

Poor Jazzy looks devastated. Robbo's parents were very short with Tori. I'm not keen on them. I'm not looking forward to the funerals. Hopefully we don't see them.

Justin would surely believe Leah had been the victim of a freak kidnap and murder, not run away because she got cold feet Why isn't anyone worried that there could be a murderer on the loose?!

[Fi1982]

I quite like Robbo’s dad, it might be because I remember him as Mr Gribble from Round the Twist, so have a nostalgic soft spot for him 😆

Robbo’s mum’s a bit of an old bag, but I quite like that she’s not just some smiley generic mum, why not give her a bit of personality, even if it’s a bad one 😂

I know re Leah, they’re even more apathetic about her disappearance than when Jazzy was kidnapped! I might fake my own kidnapping to see if family and close friends give a shit, this savoire faire approach by H&A is shaking life-held convictions here 😂

[Fi1982]

Funeral on 5* is killing me 😭 not sure I’m strong enough to cope with H&A at the mo 😩

[Dontlickthetrolley]

I've never really liked Jasmine but her scene in the hospital and tonight's 5* episode had me absolutely sobbing.

[CurbsideProphet]

Very moving

[AGnu]

Just started watching. Totes emosh at them all in their uniforms & then Colby came shuffling passed with the huge flowers...

[AiryFairy1]

In his big shiny leather jacket

[CurbsideProphet]

Yes the shiny leather jackets are an interesting choice for formal wear

I like watching Home and Away and seeing some semblance of normal life without Coronavirus. I'm wondering if they will have to reach the stage where they have to pause filming?

[Blobby10]

I think the actress who plays Jasmine does it best when shes upset! I remember when she and Robbo broke up and she genuinely looked like she had been sobbing all night! Make up free and all. Yesterdays episode just cemented that thought. I really wasn't a fan of her at the start but have warmed to her.

[AiryFairy1]

EastEnders is postponing filming- down 2 eps per week , so it’s likely HAA may as well. Not sure I can cope with tv rations now as well

[Fi1982]

Getting the feeling that wee homemade twig thing is it for Mason’s send-off then 😕 even Beth, his tragic girlfriend of about six weeks got a bigger farewell!

I’ll do a quick eulogy then, seeing as Ziggy’s was fairly self-centred.

Farewell Mason, your hair was shit at first, but it got better, as did your character. I particularly liked how you stood up for your beliefs, including telling Brody he was a shitbag for cheating on Ziggy and not just welcoming Simoan with open arms, and putting your career in jeopardy by helping Raffy with your homemade CBD oil trials. You died a hero’s death, and even managed to avoid bleeding on the hospital sheets. Considerate to the end! I look forward to seeing you in minor roles in Hollywood before you turn up on Ramsey Street, probably as Billy Kennedy’s head transplant or similar.

[AiryFairy1]

I haven’t seen that ep yet, but I can’t fathom the link between Zig and Mason, it’s not like they were ever best mates during or after ass-wipe Brody 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m probably missing something 🤔

[CurbsideProphet]

Mason was apparently a caring brother in law which is a bit surprising as I don't quite remember them spending a lot of time together 🤔 however, I do think he's the one who went off at Brody when he found out about the affair and defended Ziggy's honour, so to speak.

[KatieKat88]

@Fi1982, perfect eulogy, I practically have a tear in my eye 😂

[Starburst8]

I've just seen that home and away have stopped filming and will be taken off the air (Australia) so I think it'll be soon off in the UK. What are we all gonna do if we going into lockdown 😱

[LHMBF]

Oh no, I need my home and away fix

[CurbsideProphet]

They're doing rehearsals by Skype!

I don't know how far behind we are, so who knows when it will stop showing here. Hopefully after that awful Jade has left!

[TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross]

Not being taken off air but only being shown on Mondays and Fridays - at LUNCHTIME SLOT ONLY (unless you watch on 5*) from Monday. So we'll still get a bit of a fix but not a lot ☹️

[AiryFairy1]

Oh no, it’s 30 mins escapism keeping me sane after a long day of “please sit and do your work”, “please do your own work, not your brother’s”, “OMG are you STILL on that worksheet?!” ....needless to say homeschooling is not going brilliantly atm 🤦🏻‍♀️
