    So ridiculous. The writers just seem to really love the character. Not sure why. They've milked him to death at this stage!

    It’s like they’re run out of ideas for the show.

    Fay's death was very sad, Mark and Tyler should have been there or then had it done off screen instead with Aaron and Chloe :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,671 ✭✭✭deisemum


    A sad episode.

    I'm beyond bored with Susan and the Finn storyline.

    Actor Shareena Clanton (Wentworth) has levelled allegations against Neighbours following a recent appearance on the soap.

    “Struggling to post anything positive about the months I endured on @neighbours after multiple racist traumas and navigating ongoing counselling from this highly problematic show. It’s been lonely, triggering and traumatising to work in such a culturally unsafe space,” she wrote on Instagram.

    She hasn’t appeared in our episodes yet, she’ll play a business woman called Sheila Canning and there will be some mix up with mail with the original Shelia Canning.

    This isn’t the first accusation of racism on the Neighbours set.

    At least the high pony tail looks better than the two little bunches she has sometimes on the top of her head, silly hairstyles for a professional woman in her 30's,

    The longest goodbye ever, just leave already Dipi and Shane, it's only Sydney you're going to, not Sligo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,364 ✭✭✭washiskin


    What's the betting Nicolette won't want to hand over the baby and Chloe will be stuck in the middle trying to show angst and frown a lot until a resolution is found...... :rolleyes:

    Ya, looks like she's not sure about handing baby over now that she's with Chloe. She's no doubt envisaging them as the happy family, not David and Aaron.

    That was always on the cards, Neighbours certainly love going for the obvious storylines. Nicolette is such a nasty character yet everything's fallen into place for her, despite all she's done, she finally gets her claws into Chloe (although this was always going to happen, just the writers went round in circles with it), Dipi was falling over herself to help her and then makes her manager and David & Aaron decide to have a baby with her, despite them knowing she was only doing it to stay close to Chloe. Is there any possibility that Chloe will leave soon, she's a really annoying and ridiculous character!

    Jacinta Stapleton (Amy Greenwood) has confirmed that she will be back as a regular on Neighbours following her recent guest return in a few months time.

    The actress reprised her role as Amy Greenwood after a long time away from the soap last year.

    What is the point of this new Sheila storyline :confused:




  • Jeepers dramatic ending to today’s


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 88,569 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I hope Amy is on the pill for her joint fun relationships

    Someone please cut off Chloe's hair

    Her hair is fine, they should just cut her from the show

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,902 ✭✭✭Girly Gal


    Actually love her pony tail, only thing I like about her, she's a really annoying character, delighted that Nicolette has disappeared, no doubt there will be more drama when the baby is born and Aaron and David are left empty handed, will be glad when this storyline is over.



  • Registered Users Posts: 884 ✭✭✭Caprica


    I really hope Nicolette has disappeared for ever but I doubt we’ll be that lucky. The new credits have got my hopes up. She is such an unlikeable character, normally an Aussie soap would find their good qualities at this point. I actually like Chloe and Leo as a couple. I’m really don’t like Crazy David.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 501 ✭✭✭Pistachio19


    What the hell was all that today? Whose baby did Paul end up with?



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,902 ✭✭✭Girly Gal


    Was thinking maybe she had twins, but, surely that would have shown up on the scans, so everyone would have known, but, where could she possibly have gotten a few days old baby from, at such short notice, I suppose anything is possible in soapland. I hate how the writers always allow Nicolette to come out on top regardless of the situation.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,335 ✭✭✭✭leahyl


    I’d say she stole a baby from the hospital?! It’s Neighbours at the end of the day - it could be that far fetched! The cops will come knocking on the door one day lol



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 88,569 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    The baby is belong to Leo and his ex Britney, Nicolette returns with the real Isla

    Kyle has cancer not Hendrix





  • the whole polyamourous storyline needs to end, its just pointless

    I think Hendrix having cancer would have been a great storyline , i think he is a really good actor, well by soap standards!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,148 ✭✭✭✭Annasopra


    If I was Brent I would report Paul to the cops for bribing that guy and get Toadie to lodge an appeal on the conviction

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    The whole custody case is ridiculous. David is coming off as being even more disturbed than he claims Nicolette to be.

    Also, Melanie "I'm not an old person, I can't have osteoporosis" - get a grip woman. You're 56, not 36, it may not be old per se but is old enough to get checked for osteoporosis.

    Kyle is being killed off in a cancer storyline - I like Kyle 😥

    Anyone else annoyed that RTÉ did not take the opportunity to catch up this week?


    They've ended the show today WITHOUT showing the season finale - - - so they'll show the "cliff-hanger" in January.


    This was the perfect week to catch up and be in-sync with the other broadcasters again but NO, they'll stay behind.

    A very minor character, so no real loss to show

    A very difficult soap to endure nowadays, I have to scroll online just so I can endure the episodes. The most annoying thing is the workeness, a suburban street, transsexuals, polygamy and gay parents all on a small street is unrealistic. I could cope with that if the storylines were good but they definitely aren't, the last good storyline was Finn.


    A good example of this is when the telephone post fell on the party. This could have been dramatic but the next episode they do this weird flashback episode with very little aftermath footage of the post falling.

    I've made the decision to stop watching this show in a couple of years as it isn't worth the 100 minutes per week. I've been watching on and off since 2000.


    Also I was shocked at some of the adult content I heard on this show. Roxy telling Kyle that he should "fill it to the brim" when he was going to donate semen. Then they showed him donating the sample in the hospital room. That isn't what I want to be seeing on a dinner time soap. That hypersexual character Roxy annoys me.



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,902 ✭✭✭Girly Gal


    It's completely unrealistic alright, a bit overloaded with gay characters atm, but, I think Mackenzie (the trans character) is a good character and the fact she is trans (as is the actress who plays her) is rarely referenced now that her transition storyline is complete.

    Neighbours is reportedly facing the axe on Channel 5 after 14 years at the heart of the station's daytime schedule.

    Bosses at the long-running soap are thought to be in crunch talks over the show's future amid reports that Channel 5 wants to pull its funding for budget reasons.

    According to a report in The SunNeighbours producers are "pulling out all the stops" to save the show but no deal has been reached.

    I hope it can be saved but if Holby City can go so can Neighbours.
