The all-new Neighbours 2009 thread

[wtfftw]

The point being made was that only toadie is allowed to date a fat girl not because the more slender girls can't date him but because program makers still shy away from having a fat girl with a skinny guy (unless it's for comedy value like toadie's mum and dad), it's fine for a fat guy to be with a skinny girl though obviously

Anyway back to neighbours - I like Kelly she seems like she's gonna be a good character. and fingers crossed Declan does himself some permanent damage.

Agree to all points.



Dee isn't coming back. I spotted her somewhere else in australia (Underbelly) with brown hair.

Zeke went out with Bree, but admittedly they were both about 8 at the time.

Libby has morphed into Kate from McLeod's Daughters. I'm rather amused because in McLeod's she had a relationship with Dan (Brewer) and now they're engaged (in neighbours). yeeeah.

I felt sure she's come back at some point - (Harold did it after being swept out to sea!) - I thought she was gonna turn up on Toadies wedding day

Yes. I was almost upset when she didn't turn up as he was about to marry Steph.
Underbelly has finished though so perhaps she'll dye her hair and reappear... or not.

It took me a few seconds to realise it was Libby. Libby's been in it so long (only Lou and Paul pre-date her?) that it's quite difficult when she suddenly looks very different.

Looks like the abortion is off then. How surprising.

Maybe Dan will call off the marriage when he sees.

 

[pigtails]

They should at least have someone say "You look different today - have you done something to your hair??"

 

[rollinder]

Eh? He married Dee, and was engaged to both Cindy and Steph.

Interesting how abortion was insinuated today. I can't remember them ever doing that.

Lauri (or what ever her name was who Conner got pregnant) got as far as the clinic door iirc and going way back Todd got run over doing the saving Pheobe from aborting his child at the last minute thing. Don't think anyone actually got as far as being alowd to actually have an abortion though.

Wasn't it implied last week that Elle had an abortion in the past when she told the girls she had been pregnant but unfortunately had no one to help her?

Although they could have been laying down the plot for Elle's long lost child to appear in 6 months.

Spot the difference;

the 'new' Libby is wrong on so many levels. been better to have written the character out for a while me thinks.

love the way they got 'Libby' to answer the phone "hello, Libby Kennedy" just to make it clear to the audience who she is

and Karl Kennedy. what a legend - he runs that hospital

 

[pigtails]

I don't think thay could write her out easily cause of the whole wedding thing but it would definitely have been better.

I like the way when everyone speaks to her they have to say Libby after every sentence.

 

[wtfftw]

Are we on for reruns of more old stories then?
Did Lou have a painkiller problem?
Who couldn't read? Conner?

 

[stavros]

Connor was intially only semi-literate. He was quite a good character, probably second only to Lance in terms of Toadie's many foils over the years.

Whilst they're not really linked, Callum, Donna and Lucas are all pretty good new characters. Makes up for the general dullness of the Parkers et al.

 

[stavros]

Is it me, or does Erinsborough High look like a prison from the outside? This isn't the best picture, but some of the shots they showed today looked so much like Alcatraz.

 

[wtfftw]

Oh noez! Harold storyline making me cry (no spoilers!!! I've conveniently forgotten any encountered thus far)

 

[pigtails]

Awwww poor Harold

 

[stavros]

If he does die, hopefully he'll let Lou know his true feelings for him.

 

[stavros]

If Callum needs his eyes testing, there's surely only one man is Australia who could do that;

I have been away, but I need to register my disgust at fake Libby.

It is because 'Real' Libby had pneumonia and a collapsed lung - so whilst it is shit at least it's temporary!

I know it is.

It still disgusts me though. They could have just sent her to colack or something.

Oh yeah, definitely!

She's just NOT Libby!!

 

[Dillinger4]

Oh yeah, definitely!

And they are all looking at her and talking to her like she is.



I am going to write an angry letter addressed to Ramsey St. How dare they.

 

[pigtails]

They've even fooled her poor son!!
evil bastards!

They think that just by repeatedly saying Libby we are gonna be fooled!!! We're not that stupid!!

 

[wtfftw]

See you'd all be fine if only you watched McLeods Daughters. Fitzy was getting with new libby in that before he was with Libby so all is right in my world... uh. sort of.

 

[Dillinger4]

If he does die, hopefully he'll let Lou know his true feelings for him.

 

[wtfftw]

I actually laughed proper hard at today. I wont say what at tho' as the 5:30 showing hasn't happened yet.
