No spoilers! Although recent news is very much allowed to be discussed.

She also played Jenna in Pretty Little Liars. Don't remember her being such a bad actress in H&A.

I haven’t watched it yet but I know she has and American/Australian accent now which always throws me when someone has a hybrid accent as it sounds like they can’t do either well!

She was in Hannah Montanna too.

You need to start watching home and away Middle. Start from Tane being Maori with a stick half naked

Oh yes, that is great advice

How the hell did I watch H&A and PLL and not realise that is the same person?!

I dunno. I gave up way back when VJ was still little. It felt like it had become the River Boys show and I really wasn’t down for that. It feels like I’m too far gone now.

Although you are giving it some good selling points…

I stopped watching around vj getting his hearing. Then stopped for years and dipped back in and now I like it.
I missed most of the river boys story. I like dean and mac

I also gave up H&A shortly after the river boys arrived.
I’m hoping for Neighbours re-runs.
Would love to watch it from the start as I was only a year old when it began!

Who lives in the house in the caravan park now?

The River Boys aren't really a thing anymore (although they dipped in very briefly a while back to help Dean out with something which was good!)

Their storylines have been better than Neighbours for a while. I also had a big break (stopped watching after uni) but picked it up again surprisingly easily.

@Itsthemaybelline

Alf Stewart with Roo and Ryder.

Alf!! Blimey, he's still there!

Yes! I find it kinda comforting!

Think that’s why I love neighbours as there a few long standing characters.

So Montana, I never watched home and away when she played Dani and I never watched Pretty Little Liars
Was this actress as bad as she is now?!

She is appalling!

I’ve not watched her in either of those but she still
Looks familiar!

Alf with his daughter Roo who's now a teacher and his wife Martha who is Roo's Mom and actually was never dead and his grandson Ryder who's the son of his first born Quinn

The icky River Boy left is Dean and he's a thoroughly good guy now

Have you all decamped to Summer Bay already?

British actors often sound a bit off on Neighbours until you get used to them, I often find, but I was very struck today by how posh Harlow's aunt sounded. Nothing compared to your average MNer of course, but more upmarket than I expected Amanda Holden to sound.

The British woman playing Sadie(?)'s grandmother. Where on earth did they find her? 😂

They do sound posh!

It was an odd episode today

Ahhh Roxy s sobbing :(

I fast forwarded half of it as I can't stand Amanda Holden!
Does anyone else think the guy in the bar will end up being from the order?

Totally an Order Nutjob.

I confess I laughed when David came rushing in at the crucial moment with the news of the accident at the sperm bank. Proper shark-jumping.

Yes definitely think he’s been sent from the order. Especially with his ‘ you may not know what your looking for’ in her diary
