Home and Away, fancy a pizza and a beer at Salt? We can set the Bay to rights on the balcony...

[SleepingStandingUp]

So Zig and Dean have left, leaving lonely Mack with just Mali to walk in on in the bathroom. Remi loves Bree and Cash loves Eden, Tane married Flic and Leah hasn't dumped Justin yet. Kirby loves Theo and that's about it.

But who'll love who by page 40....

Oh no.

😢

Of course, the writing was on the wall the moment we saw that pair of bogans, looking like extras from Wolf Creek.

Mind you, calling him to fetch her like a taxi was a bit entitled (even though he loves his motorbike).

😂😂 yes they were clearly wrong uns!

I'm watching first look now, so having to rethink my emotions on this. Poor Cash though. (And I bet Felicity and Tane bond over this.)

Yes Cash will be on a guilt trip.
And hopefully Tane and felicity will bond during this.

Not Cash's fault, apart from the camping trip in the first place. But he always seems a bit of a troubled soul, so this will be hard for him.

Goodness knows how they will figure it out from the evidence she planted.

Yes that’s what I meant. It’ll be if only I’d let her go home when she wanted.

Cash has found the bracelet already.

The rescue woman was v dismissive and off hand! I’m sure they’re not like that!

I didn't want to Spoil, so didn't say what the evidence was (plus I thought it was the trailer at the end of the first look - so confusing...).
When I said, "Not Cash's fault", I just meant that he shouldn't blame himself, but he undoubtedly will.

(Who wouldn't though - and Eden might even blame herself for bringing Remy out there by being such a diva.)

Maybe she suspects Cash of "something"....
(I watch too much Real Crime, some of which is from Oz (even saw recently the one that Wolf Creek was based on).

Yes thought that about Eden too.
I had asked previously on the thread whether posting about first look is a spoiler or not. And I think it was not (hoping I’ve remembered correctly, sorry if I haven’t).

I thought I would be safe, even though - as the saying goes, "better to ask for forgiveness than permission". As I wondered though, wasn't the hospital scene a trailer for the next episode after the first look one (so Tuesday's)?
I wasn't concentrating though.
Bree doesn't seem to know yet... But will it put paid to her Doctors Without Borders plan? - which will anyway happen overnight if it does, leaving room for Eden's brother to step in - like they do at Northern Districts. And of course, a rapprochement between him and Eden...

Predictable as usual.
Although I admit, I am not always right!

(I said "though" a lot in this post, didn't I.)

That makes perfect sense! Bee will get a posting whilst remi recovers. They do like to operate a one in one out at the hospital it seems!

I am liking H &A at the moment. Even with the band. But I don’t mind their individual stories- remi / Eden. Never liked that lead singer.

Yes, hard to remember when there was a time of having two actual Doctors at the same time, although often a Dr and a Nurse character. Which will probably be the case with Eden's brother (Bree's replacement), and the dark-haired sister.

I do also foresee trouble at the Surf Club, with Alf reinstating John, almost just to prove a point. (Banjo's Dad did seem a bit of a jerk though.)

The song that Justin wrote was lovely ❤ (even though I find Leah annoying).

Which lead singer do you mean? (The original was never much a of a feature, but was also another jerk.)

Yes the original lead singer. Didn’t Kirby date him?

i was glad he left.

Right - I think I either wasn't watching much at that time, or have blocked him out of my memory (I seem think he also came back again briefly, but might be imagining that).
The band itself does not interest me at all, and nor did Kirby's solo career. But I have liked some of their music.

Oh my great shame was that I liked Justin and Theo‘s set on the balcony 😱

Yes he did come back briefly. Cannot remember his name though.

he did come back briefly. Cannot remember his name though.

Wasn't it something quite mundane like Bob?

I think it was Bob!

Yes - me too. I do like most of their music. Kirby makes the writing process seem so easy!

Bob, was it? There you go then - totally mundane name for a pretty unlikeable character, And he would have to go - the name does not shorten any further than Bob!

v true!

Remi is late 20s?!! I thought he was late 30s!

I know! Beards can make older men look less old if that makes sense, certainly more distinguished. But on younger men, it can have the opposite effect. The actor probably is older than late 20 certainly. I seem to remember reading that Theo is a lot older irl - as many others have been, but maybe it happens less without school storylines, when actors in their 20s were playing schoolchildren.

Of course Mac and new Dr are going to get close 🙄.... and she is now suffering anxiety, which is so out of character for her. And he is in for a (as Alf would say) "rough trot" with both Eden and Bree having an axe to grind. {I still predict he stays in the Bay, regardless.)

Even though somewhat unrealistic, the emergency procedure for Remy was well- acted, even the new Nurse, who i have not liked until this point.

Looks as though the Charity event is going to fall flat, for various reasons 😞

I watched the lunchtime episode and it is funny how the police/Rose were dismissive too.

And the rescue woman at the grave sized hole “ oh it’s a fire pit” ??? Ridiculous

Sometimes they - either the storylines, or the characters - are laughable.

Would lunchtime be yesterday's first look, becuase I get easily confused about what and when....

Lunchtime was yesterday’s first look.

Right.... so the one I just watched at 6:30...
and at the end of which there was a trailer for tomorrow's first look (SO confused). Mac looked lovely in the red.
And loved the making up with Eden and her brother., very nicely acted. I do hope it lasts.
