Will the Paul/Terese/Toadie/Mel quadrangle resolve itself? Will the Baddie Builders ever return? Will Eden get his comeuppance? All these and many more, coming up on Neighbours.

I couldn't see properly on the small screen I was watching on - did Vic's laptop show he actually has a lot of money in the bank rather than none?
If so, combined with his parenting attempts, I wonder if he's got a terminal illness and has come to bond with the family/make amends for past mistakes.
I fear this could also be the lead-up to Mike and Jane splitting and Mike's exit!
Not sure what I think of Vic yet, but I do love the actor in real life, Craig Hall, I loved him in A Place to Call Home.

Yes, it was showing over $1m.

Rummikub · 16/05/2024 01:52

jane and vic go well together I thought.

“Eternally absent mike” 😂😂

HoHoHoliday · 16/05/2024 21:09

RIP Aunt Rosemary!
I heard the actress had died last year and I wondered if she would ever be mentioned again.

HoHoHoliday · 16/05/2024 21:10

After yesterday and today I'm thinking Haz should be kept well away from that cafe. They've had more customers in the last few days than in the last year! Haz clearly can't run the place well 😂

On your bike Mike… oh he already is.

I’m getting illness vibes but then I’m not sure if they want to set him up as long term character. I’m so confused!

Why does Karl have cable ties in his helmet?

Rummikub · 16/05/2024 23:19

As a bird scarer? I don’t know really!

Smidge001 · 16/05/2024 23:29

Yes apparently it's because aussie birds swoop at passers by, (possibly only when you go near their nests/territory) and can hit you in the head. (Seriously, is there an animal in australia that doesn't kill you? Grin). The cable ties stick up so the birds only clip them, instead of yer bonce.

Smidge001 · 16/05/2024 23:32

But it's a bit of a running joke. I've definitely seen bike riders do that over there, but I think half the people roll their eyes at them, and the other half believe it. I think there was a bit of a story when Karl first did it many years ago. Maybe it was a topical local news thing at the time.

Very clever!

Google Australian magpies.

Oh when he had the bike club back in the day? DD and I were confused why no one had said anything lol

I'm also getting illness vibes. I'm guessing he needs a kidney or something. I really did chuckle at eternally absent Mike. Why did Guy P agree to continue to play the role when it's this weird?! They should have just bumped him off at the start of the reboot.

Rummikub · 17/05/2024 22:36

I think it was for the fans. Happy ending for Jane and mike.
But i thought he was only doing it for a short while. Maybe they’re pushing it in case he does a flying visit.

Arconialiving · 17/05/2024 22:37

I think it's fine, plenty of long distance relationships out there - they better not kill him off!

Rummikub · 17/05/2024 22:48

I like that he agreed to it.

BareBelliedSneetch · 21/05/2024 12:46

Poor sad Dr Karl. 😢 Pretending you’ve forgotten a last day or birthday is just mean, even if there is a surprise party.

and who is that super creepy doctor?! Are we gearing up to some sort of rape story line?

HoHoHoliday · 21/05/2024 18:27

Poor Dr Karl! I've never understood the point of a surprise party. Why make someone feel sad and miserable all day just for surprising them with a couple of hours of fun. I'd much rather be appreciated all day.

They forgot to change the date of birth on the photo of Nell in Karl's gift. Yes I'm that geeky I zoomed in. It gave her date of birth as 2012 making her 12 now as she should be instead of 15 😂

Terese and Susan are heading for a big bust up!

That woman looking around the apartments - I hope she isn't going to be a new character, she seems really annoying.

HoHoHoliday · 21/05/2024 18:29

@BareBelliedSneetch I hope that isn't where the story is heading with Dr Creepy. I don't think Neighbours has ever done a rape storyline so perhaps it is that, but it will be awful to watch ☹️

He looks a bit like JJ

Secret uncle 😀

BareBelliedSneetch · 21/05/2024 20:04

JJ does NOT need any extra family members 🤣

HoHoHoliday · 21/05/2024 20:10

But we are surely going to get some extended family for Andrew soon. They've talked about him being adopted for so long now. Birth parents/siblings must be on the horizon. And if it's a long-lost previous character returning I would love that!

HoHoHoliday · 21/05/2024 20:20

Just touting the idea now that Jane Harris left Erinsborough in 1989 after being in a relationship and splitting up with Des Clarke. Imagine if they turned out to be his birth parents?! I would love that!

Mariposa123 · 21/05/2024 20:49

How old is Andrew meant to be? Surely older than 35!
