The return of Neighbours! Who’s going up the aisle? What’s Reece up to? Did everyone else get trapped in the well? NO SPOILERS

[MiddleClassProblem]

Welcome back to our wondrous show!

@Rummikub maybe just remind your DD not to awkwardly declare feelings for this friend and then give it to him with googly eyes 😝

Jane's dress was a bit meh at the wedding

Shirt dress style of course like Rebecca wrap

Was it the light or did Elly have make up stains on the top of her collar at the wedding?

She had a lot of lipstick on

I'm surprised Chloe didn't have some round her mouth after their kiss

Why was Susan being so stroppy with Aran when the brides took ages to arrive

The whole Haz/ Holly 360 when she nearly drowned sooo annoying.
He has found her irritating right from the get go.
Now it's all doe eyes 🙄

I wish they would stop having ellie and chloe kiss on screen. They kiss like they are repulsed by one another.

and i stand by my comment after the first week of the show’s return. The director or writers are obsessed with naked feet. The first week it was all terese’s naked feet. Constantly up on the sofa. And it has continued.

@Mariposa123 😂😂

she actively doesn’t a relationship right now.

we did have a brief chat tho as a result of that scene!

Ah yes to Mackenzie being annoying and so self absorbed. But Haz is just as bad. He does this horrible wide eyed judgey look, he was doing it to Holly last week and now he’s aiming it at Mack. What do these women see in him!?🤢

Yes I was expecting Chloe to have transfer lipstick all over.

The whole Susan being stroppy and Arron changing outside was bizarre... Those boxers 😬

Toadie’s daughter, Nell, annoying me. She’s so interfering and is always smirking.

The only time Nell has her eyes open properly is when being shouted at by Mel!
She should do this more often

I’m getting tired of Mel mooning over Toadie all the time and nothing else. I hope now she has the van back she will have something else going on. I assume Krista will be the mystery gift giver.

I am also annoyed no one has even drop a small “do you want to keep it?” To Krista.

I’m glad Remi has quickly dropped the David hackles. And I hope that in turn gives David a route to no longer be Mr Low and serious all the time.

I'm so fed up with the overacting and wierd grin/ snarl at inappropriate times.
Any emotion and Nell turns into a sheep
Mel was so mahahahad !
Dahahad !

I understand that she's new to acting and she's still young. So that in itself is an achievement and I'm not tearing a kid down... But it does need addressing.

I am also annoyed no one has even drop a small “do you want to keep it?” To Krista.
I took David trying to talk to her about the risks / possibly damage as exactly that conversation.

with Nell, is she theatre trained? I was just wondering whether that is the reason behind the exaggerated expressions. * *

I heard it as him saying that the baby might have issues that you need to be prepared for

Thank goodness the no-chemistry Chelly have left.
I don't really get Nell. Surely the only reason to rapidly age her was to have some teenage-specific drama but she's not getting that. I'm thinking back to the days of Amber and Josh, the Kennedy siblings and Toadie, back to Lance, Anne, Amy, even back to Charlene, Scott, Paul, Mike, Danny, Jane, and so many more - always good teenager storylines, but Nell is just meddling in her dad's relationship.
Nell also needs to stop wobbling her voice up and down when she speaks! She needs acting lessons. Perhaps she can get a 2 for 1 deal with the very wooden Nicolette.
I'm enjoying Melanie being back, she's good to watch. And Krista is one of the few interesting characters at the moment, I hope she's sticking around. Krista in the hotel will also give Paul something to work off.

A good future story would be to bring back Malcolm and bring his daughter Susannah with him to live with Karl and Susan. This would make the Kennedys a family house again. Another good idea would be to have some extended family join the Rodwells. Ramsay St is missing that family dynamic that they've always had.

Karl needs to back off from Holly & Hal

Holly's clothes are so unflattering

Her floral headband today was too much. I found it very distracting!

That is one scary headband!

Holly looked much better when dressed casually after the pool
incident.

The headbands were distracting!

Whats with this key business?

The secret key thing - we don't know what it is yet. But there have been a couple of references previously to Nicolette having a secret. When Aaron/David/Nicolette were considering moving back to the street Paul said something about people not knowing the real reason Nicolette wanted to move away. So I'm guessing we are about to find out about that. Perhaps something to do with Kiri? Nicolette and Kiri were a couple in the final episode I think? And now obviously not a couple, and we don't know why yet.

Ah ok.

im liking neighbours atm.

I did like Remi and David’s dinner chat to smooth things over.

It is improving a bit 🤞

I always find Paul's attitude to addicts really odd and uncomfortable seeing as he's in love with Terese.

I don't mind Karl giving Holly advice - it's quite nice he's wanting her to have a good relationship and be herself because she does seem sadly terrified of upsetting Haz. He isn't worth it!

Krista's pregnancy - is Eden the father? That's so traumatic! He was keeping her prisoner and drugged up wasn't he?
