Just curious is Summer Bay considered in Greater Sydney in H&A verse?.

Leah and Zac's marriage seemed doomed from the start. I think if Charlie wasn’t leaving then there wouldn’t be writing with Leah pushing Zac away and therefore no affair and staying together and I think Zac would have stayed Hunter's father. I think it would have been better if they did not marry and just be partners and waited til Leah married Justin as by time Leah married Justin they were together for five and that was longest relationship she had by then. Back on topic both Jasmine exit ruined their characters with breaking Cash heart in such cruel way and I didn’t like Jasmine character afterwards and not having proper goodbye scene with anybody.

I just wonder why they didn’t just write out both Joel and Natalie in 2000 before the Sutherlands arrived and without Natalie's affair. Gypsy could simply just move in with Vinnie. In some ways I think it would have been a more ideal time for Sally to leave in 2000 with getting married and moving away being her exit storyline. I didn’t buy them turning Sally into a foster mum and trying to turn her into new Pippa in 2004-2008. She just seemed too young when she was being a foster mum to Ric and Cassie as she seemed more like big sister figure then mother figure.

Kyle and Colby .

Doris Peters I think she would be. Summer Bay version off Mrs Mangel if she stayed and after Richmond Hill got cancelled it’s wonder why Gwen Plumb didn’t return then . I know she only one scene in the pilot but she was meant to be a regular but Gwen Plumb decided to do Richmond Hill instead but got cancelled after a year. When Gwen Plumb returned in 1995 as a new character it’s a shame they didn’t just used Doris Peters again. Doris Peters was mentioned as long as 1995 as I remember a scene when Irene was on phone to her and though she said just Doris and could be other Doris but I do believe it was actually Doris Peters given it was only seven since pilot.

Matt and Ellie-I know they were siblings but Ellie was guest and was very refreshing to see realistic storyline of older sibling taking care of his younger sibling without any huge drama and Ellie being just guest was good because while she was still around you only sure her when she was needed and was nice for once to see happy end with siblings and young family foaming together.

Wouldn’t minded seeing Loris Crawford stay longer as couldn’t help but wonder if there was more then meets eyes with her character and maybe find out what cause her become that way she was and maybe she more complex side to her. I would paid money to watch Morag bring Loris down and it’s shame we didn’t get see them in screen but guest Morag wasn’t going make random return in 1991 for no reason.
