Summer's Bay

I’m surprised that Kate Ritchie isn’t in the line up. I assume more dates/cast will be announced if there is a demand and scheduling permits.

That’s Nicolle’s husband on the right (In my opinion he looks like Greg). I assume that’s Sharyn’s husband on the left.

Wow! I did not recognize Carly! Thanks.

Hello All! Amanda Newman-Phillips aka Narelle Smart posted reunion photos with some of the early years cast. How many familiar faces can you spot? They all look great by the way. I wonder what they are up to? https://www.instagram.com/p/C81REIOSwBa/?hl=en&img_index=1 Ok, I’ll let one slip- Nicolle aka Bobby is now on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/nicbell1969/?hl=en Who is that standing next to her in the first photo wearing the scarf?

Has it ever been confirmed by anybody (Pippa, Roo, Sally) that Frank went back to live in the US? For some reason I just don’t see that happening considering he told Bobby he didn’t like it there.

I give up trying to watch it. It’s too “modern” now. It’s like the show evolved and left me behind lol. Everyone’s houses look so different, and the story lines are not as good as the earlier days. I need to see some more old faces!

I’m trying to watch Neighbours but I can’t figure out where everyone lives. I thought Jane lived at Mrs Mangels house? Does Paul live in the Robinson house? Stefan Dennis is a phenomenal actor. Paul Robinson hasn’t changed one bit.

So Des came back to Erinsborough after he and Jane split up? I hope Clive and Jane aren’t talking about marriage...the producers have turned her man hungry

Do Jane and her daughter live in Mrs Mangels old house, or with Clive? What happened to the woman Clive cheated on with Jane?

Roo never got over him. I guess he never got over her either.

Did Bronwyn ever return? Not sure how I feel about Jane and Clive. Based on some of the reviews I’ve read, the Jane character has turned a bit more comedic. Not sure how I feel about that.

Might be the other way. Has Roo matured enough to be the wife that Frank wants? I’m sure the interview is on YouTube. It was a while ago when I watched it. Alex also mentioned in that interview that he was a veterinary nurse for six years. That’s great but it just baffles me that as a trained actor, he struggled to get work, and had to retrain in another field. It’s a shame he never took the leap of faith and tried his luck in the UK/US. In my opinion he could’ve done really well in the latter, same with Justine Clarke. Greg(Ross Newton) appears to be struggling to get acting work too. He currently works at a university doing some sort of fund raising.

If I was a writer for the show, this is exactly how I would write his future. He probably would've had some relationships on the way but they didn't go anywhere. It would follow on from when Frank said to Pippa that he couldn't see himself happy with anyone but Bobby. Alex Papps was interviewed a few years ago and when asked, mentioned along the lines that Frank would still be single if he was around. I know that some people have said that it would be nice for him to reunite with Roo, but I just don't see that happening. However it would be nice to see Alex do another stint in Home and Away and just be really good friends with Roo. I never watched Franks return for Sallys wedding, but based on what I have read, its a shame the writers didn't include some kind of flash back, or any mention of Bobby.

I assume Steve is still with Selina? I recall someone saying Frank went back to USA when Bobby turned him down. It would be interesting to know if he reunited with Roo again at some point. In my opinion the biggest mistake the producers made was not to keep the original Fletcher family unit in tact. Steve, Frank and Carly didn't attend Bobbys funeral, Steve and Frank didnt attend Pippa's wedding, and as you mentioned, Frank was also absent from family events. I think a lot of Franks absences where due to Alex not wanting a long term commitment on Home and Away. I definitely believe things would've been different if he stuck around longer for either his first or second stint. I honestly wouldn't have minded a recast to preserve the character. Makes you wonder if the producers were hoping that Justine and Frank would return so they didn't kill them off.
