Hadn’t Toadie already broken up with Dee? I’m so confused 😂

The dialogue feels quite pedestrian at the mo...

I'm so confused and annoyed with sky 😂 Our sky box lost ALL our recordings, which means I've lost all the Neighbours episodes I was working my way through 😤 I'd already lost a load just around the time Gary died, and was beginning to be able to piece things together, but now I've lost so much!

The last episode I saw, Mannix had just moved in with Mackenzie. Now Shaun is back from the dead, Mackenzie's dad was there, Karl and Susan are arguing and Aaron and David have a foster kid....and I just heard Claudia is in jail??!

Finally caught up so can now view and post on this thread again. Always wary of inadvertent spoilers when I have episodes to watch so have kept away

SleepingStandingUp · 18/07/2020 23:47

The last episode I saw, Mannix had just moved in with Mackenzie. gone and she lives with the Rebeccis now so dont worry about it

Now Shaun is back from the dead he made it to a VERY well stocked cabin where he stayed until winter ended and tada, good as new. Turned up in time to stop his Mama steal Aster from an imprisoned Elly

Mackenzie's dad was there came for legal advice from Toadie after a work place accident, stayed to bond with Mackenzie. THey've gone off to see his other kids now that she didn;t know about

Karl and Susan are arguing he admitted to shiela he blamed her for Finn. Also he got a bit emotional affair territory with an ex who then wrote a tell all book about Finn so she's pissed off with him for that too.

Aaron and David have a foster kid 3 seconds after they were confirmed as suitable to foster a 0-5yo they landed themselves a teen who just hadn't got anywhere else to go...

....and I just heard Claudia is in jail??! see above. When Elly got charged for murdering Finn she pleased guilty, Claudia turned up to "help", hired a dodgy lawyer who bribed the judge to send Elly to jail and then applied for custody of Aster. When it seemed she'd lose her she tried to flee the country with her from a tiny random airpost miles from Erinsborough, where Shaun just happened to turn up fresh from his avalanche.

where Shaun just happened to turn up fresh from his avalanche. He had been found and released from hospital a day or two later. He found out that the family private jet had been summoned from Switzerland to go to the random airport so he got on it and caught Claudia as she was about to board. He was casual AF and as Sleeping said, in mint condition despite being trapped in a hut on a snowy mountain for months alone...

Who is Lance? Harlow said, Re the presents, I bet its nothing compared to what Lance got you

I wondered that too but thought I misheard.

I'm assuming Sheila's secret about Levi will be related to his childhood accident he mentioned.

Clawdy · 20/07/2020 22:15

Think she said "compared to what Ned's got you."

BluePajamas · 21/07/2020 07:50

No she def said Lance!

I heard Ned too.

MiddleClassProblem · 21/07/2020 08:44

I’d the Neighbours version of Laurel and Yanny? I haven’t watched it yet but will let you know what I hear...

Stinkyjellycat · 21/07/2020 08:55

I just watched the episode while I was reading this thread so I double-checked and she definitely said Ned.

happilybemused · 23/07/2020 08:30

Elly shouldn't be too upset about the whole mum and babies group disaster.

Lets face it, even if she hadn't pleased guilty to murder and undertaken a prison sentence those groups are vicious and bitchy at the best of times.

SleepingStandingUp · 23/07/2020 09:32

@MiddleClassProblem

I heard Ned 😬
Yanny or the other word Middle?

I think I was Laurel but I did do a thing where you could change the pitch and heard both...

SleepingStandingUp · 23/07/2020 09:59

I def hear Finn normally, I think it's you lot hearing what you expected to hear

Kyle and Roxy’s socially distanced kiss 🤣🤣🤣

Am I the only one kind of uncomfortable with the way they are glossing over the seriousness of gender realignment surgery?

SleepingStandingUp · 23/07/2020 22:09

It is definately just a little bit of light surgery that she'll be over v quickly and all exciting and fine.

OP posts:
WitchSharkadder · 23/07/2020 22:39

No, it's making me uncomfortable too, Tom. It's being presented so positively, no discussion regarding risks, both present and future, infertility etc. And it's had a lot of air time considering it's more of a secondary plot line. It's being shoved down our throats and feels like Neighbours are trying way too hard.

TomBradysLeftKneecap · 24/07/2020 02:36

I don't really care about any other agendas but I'm sure as shit if any of my sons decided to have their genitals lopped off on their 18th birthday just because they can, I'd be a hard no. One of my sons drank so much rum on his 18th, JUST BECAUSE HE COULD, he needed his stomach pumped. This is not a great age for life changing decisions.

MiddleClassProblem · 24/07/2020 07:46

I don’t think those two things are remotely comparable...

Mackenzie is someone who is studious so it would seem she took the same approach to her surgery way before being at Erinsborough Highand it’s not really a surprise she’s excited about being in the body she always felt she should be, or that she is having surgery at all. I do think they should have shown more questions around it. I think it’s a hard concept for most people to understand what it feels like to be trans and to be sure that you want to make permanent changes to your body.

SleepingStandingUp · 24/07/2020 10:16

I just think they're completely skipping over how people react to this in real life. When Shane wasn't 100% excited at the start she was trans he was the worst person ever for even questioning it. Harlow would be asking about her fertility and zjendrix her sexual pleasure. Her Aunt would absolutely come over rather than just being ah k, it's just a little op. There's been no talk about whether she's had therapy or really discussed this with anyone. I think they covered the issues with her Dad quite well, the bad kid at school but that lasted 5 minutes, no one has ribbed Richie for being with a "guy" and I don't think all kids are so cool that wouldn't happen.
It isn't that they shouldn't show her going through it, it's that if they're going to feature it quite heavily I'd expect a little bit more challenge and discourse
