Hello all, same tummy bug keeps me out of action. Another week of laying around on the couch.

Good luck to Brax getting Kyle to co-operate, as if.

Silly Sasha put herself through days of anguish (and for the viewers as well). One simple test did the trick, lol. Teenagers and common sense don't mix.

Hope everyone is well. Must be getting cold in the northern hemisphere for all our ladies up that way. Cheers everyone. x

Casey and Sasha seem to be getting along very well. In fact, Casey appears to be growing older very fast.

I also hope Kim is ok.
I like Casey,poor mixed up kid.

Leah has 'entertained' a toy boy but has found that he is connected to Brax's friend, Adam and there is some kind of 'dirty-work' afoot! Can't work out what it's all about yet, but looks intriguing. Liam seems to be getting dragged into it too.
In the meantime, Brax and Heath are bringing Kyle back to Summer Bay to help clear Casey's name.

Kim - hope you are OK. Haven't heard from you for a while.

You will see him first as a stranger sitting in a car - keeping an eye on Casey. He introduces himself in a later episode when they make a flimsy attempt to show viewers some of our 'outback' area.

The search for him has ended rather weakly - but no rough stuff for our Brax! He even manages to keep Heath in line.

Hi

Dont think theres been any mention of the half brother here yet...or maybe I missed it

Brax and Heath have gone to Melbourne and finally located Kyle, the half-brother. Don't know what is going to happen, but it looks like a stand-off between two against four at the moment. We have to wait and see!

Your memory is better than mine. I don't remember Alf being in it - but that was long before I started watching Home and Away, so he would not have been familiar to me.
An interesting point on that show. The actors were all given contracts at the time and only one of them bothered to read and question hers - Bea. Consequently, I understand that she still receives royalties, where the others don't.

Her comment on it was "I always read the fine print".

You have started me now lol.
Just been looking back at CBH.
Alf was in it and so was Harrold from neighbours.VT was Vera and Joan was the freak.
I used the laugh at the sets on it,the walls would sway about lol

Marion

As I remember it - The Freak was also Vinegar T**s.
I could be wrong there. Perhaps the Warden was V.T. She was in the very early part of Home & Away, as Alf's sister.

I don't remember seeing either Alf or Harrold in Cell Block. If you mean Harrold as in Neighbours, I have only seen him in Neighbours

My memory is not as good as it used to be but I claim Old Age as the reason - and it's as good an excuse as any other.

Berona

I watched Cell block H.And I remember joan the 'Freak' and her leather gloves.
Alf was in it at one time too wasnt he? Harrold was,and wasnt vinigar t*ts in H&A or neighbours not long ago?

Marion

I will say that this program 'moves' along. I have often missed a part of it and wondered later 'what happened to....?'.It starts at 7pm and I only need to be five minutes late getting to it, and I can lose the plot of it entirely, sometimes!

Don't worry about Jett. He does all right. Quite a good little actor. In fact, he and VJ are getting more air time than usual at the moment.

Roo and Harvey are planning a wedding but seem happy to be fighting about everything in the meantime - and Bianca is finding solace in a pot of pills.

As I said before - I record the 1991 version and skim through it to see if there are any of the current actors in it. Strange, what I see! At the moment, Marilyn's adoptive mum has come into it - played by Maggie Kirkpatrick. If you ever watched "Cell Block H" (named "Prisoner" here) she was "the Freak".
Only Alf and Marilyn are recognisable at the moment, and where Alf seems to have been consistent, I believe Marilyn has been away and come back again a couple of times over the years. Even so - she still hasn't learned that it isn't practical to wear high heels in a caravan park! :-)

Hi all.
Casey is out and about now.I must have missed the bit after his Dads funeral,when he realised he had been stitched up.
Baby Roco is just out of hospital,with a dummy as big as he is in his mouth lol

Berona

I have tuned in to the thread every now and then, but was having trouble following some of the things mentioned and realised UK were behind.

I have recorded the last few episodes as I was out at the time theye were on, but the last one I saw which I think was earlier this week, was Dext pushing April away, Baby Rocky attending his grandfather's funeral and Heath not being very happy with Casey.

Haven't noticed Casey being followed yet. Roo has her ex around and stirring up trouble with her fiance.

We had a little break from looking for the half-brother whilst there was a party at Sid's place to celebrate Romeo and Indi getting back together.

Sid does all right. Party guests included Roo, Marilyn and Sid's current interest - all at the same table! He must have something! Haven't noticed what it is yet - but I'm always slow on the uptake!

Leah does all right too. She has a new man interested in her.

Hello Dee - and welcome to our thread.

The distance between our episodes varies when we have different 'lay off' periods.
At present, it is a few weeks. Have you reached the part where Casey and his Dad do the 'hold-up gone wrong' yet? After that, you will see a young man sitting in his car, following Casey. That is the half-brother and that subject is still on-going here. They need to find him or Casey is in big trouble with the police!

In between, we had a full week of sadness, There is a funeral. Perhaps we can get the exact time difference when you get to that episode, as it was shown here on Friday 12th Oct. and is shown on 5 evenings per week.
As most of our regular programs go off in October/November, it should not be long before the season ends here - and you will 'almost' catch up again, as they don't come on again until early February.

Hi all.

Dee I'm not sure.I dont think we have met the half brother yet ..have we?

Just exactly how far behind are we in UK?
Dee

We haven't had much progress for a while. Still looking for the elusive half-brother. However, Brax now has his 'henchmen' to help him and has come face to face with the meanie who belted him, but who seems to have the information Brax wants.
All very 'underworld' for Summer Bay!

I'm sure Taggart would find him in no time! Never miss it, even though we seem to get a mixture of 'seasons'. My favourite is Robbie.

However, I'm sure Brax will find him. You will see him first, watching Casey from his car.
