Can someone please decide a consistent pronunciation for Tane’s name? Mac in particilar seems to use at least three different pronunciations per episode.

Is Mac wearing Phoebe’s old wardrobe?

Irene’s prints would be on record.

Were these episodes filmed during the bushfires or was it just a really misty day?

Haha, I did think there were only three bedrooms when I saw that corridor, but it was so quick I couldn’t be sure I hadn’t missed one. Gemma obviously has a suite on the opposite side of the house.

The Parata house is really confusing me, I thought the door near the kitchen was the back door as Nik used that door to check out the pool, but then there’s been scenes of people entering that door from the front exterior and exiting via that door to go elsewhere.

Four weddings if you count her vow renewal to Dan. Is it 6 fiancees? Ted, Vinnie, Dan, Elijah, Zac & (by force) Douglas. I’d care more about Ben & Maggie’s relationship drama if he hadn’t just moved out & back in. They’ve also been through her cancer, him saying he couldn’t live without her, then his depression and come through both (almost). Would this break them?

Peter Zoe Brax Dylan Carter Anyone else?

I agree, there was more that should have been said onscreen. I think they just wanted to gloss over it all to not alienate new viewers who don’t know Bobby or Ailsa.

It’s really weird watching the Leah storyline as I’m filling the programming gaps with classic Home and Away and am at the Viv/Rev Newton story so it seems like I’m watching a very similar story 30 years apart.

Was there every a point in the show before Carly left that she addressed drinking again? In her return for Sally’s departure she’s seen drinking but in her original stint she spoke to Andrew Foley about not being able to ever have a drink again. During the Mirigini disaster she’s seen with orange juice, although it could be Bucks Fizz.

They’ve cut the 6pm then. I get there’s still the first look, but I don’t know why they didn’t just move Home and Away into Neighbours‘ slots of Tuesday & Thursday or something.

I think Mason was one of those characters that got lost somewhere in the middle. I liked his early craving for a real relationship that he didn’t have to leave behind when he changed identity yet again. Then towards the end I think his friendships with Willow & Alex, fighting for Raffy and then the different dynamic with Justin following the departure of Brody gradually made me warm to him. Probably controversial but I’d quite like to have seen him stick around and Tori leave - I feel he was sacrificed as they ended up with too many Doctors. If Tori & Robbo both died then Grace would’ve given either Jasmine or Justin & Leah a pretty good story to run with.

I agree, although they fit the professionals like Don, Judith & Angie, but there haven’t been very many characters they’d have suited since.

Ahh thanks, I saw there were reports pretty close around the Blaxland Ridge/Kurrajong area.

I was more concerned about the more inland areas like Kenthurst (Summer Bay House) and Vineyard (Astoni’s farmhouse) as I’d imagined they were closer to the fire areas.

http://mitchfirth.com Looks like Mitch attempted to get back into acting a couple of years ago, not sure what he’s been doing otherwise. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3321496/Where-Home-Away-cast-now.html It sounds like Kate Garven has been concentrating on being a Mum of three. http://i.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/wellington/6387305/Home-and-Away-star-joins-Wellington-dance-school Amy Mizzi was working as a dance teacher in New Zealand in 2012, but doesn’t appear to be now. My question - how close are the fires to any of the H&A locations? Obviously Summer Bay House springs to mind again, I saw there was a house destroyed in Kenthurst back in November due to a bushfire.

Possibly, her ashes were scattered at sea so he may have been out to that spot, which is the closest thing.

I guess if she was still in the titles then no, but if we’re using that as a decider then Roo returned after she was removed from the titles. But yes, Frank is the clearest example.

Yes, 5* has tended to end on the same episode in recent years then return a day earlier than Channel 5 instead. 5* just got the next episode promo.

I think it is and that’s largely because they want to gloss over Alf being a bigamist, although he didn’t know Martha was alive when he married Ailsa. I’d much rather they said that Alf had told Ailsa, they decided that Martha must have had her reasons for running away (Ailsa would have understood that better than anyone) and so decided not to act on the letter. Roo had probably just given Martha up for adoption and Ailsa was pregnant with Duncan, so it was better for everyone not to.

There was a voiceover message over the closing credits on 5* today from Ray Meagher: “And that’s it until the New Year! So from all of us down under, have a great Christmas and we’ll see you in January!”

When Frank returned for Sally & Kieran’s Wedding in 2000, his final scene with Pippa on the foot of the stairs at Summer Bay House referenced a high flying job in Manhattan and International flights waiting for no-one.

A Christmas special sounds fun! Especially the group of characters they’re including. I wonder if it’ll be a bit of a clip show too.
