Those 2 chapters were :"slightly" insane !!!! Galah montser phoebe, dog frog tony, the obligatory [for OZ and H&A] kangaroo .... I was half expecting a Kane reference. LOVED the continued reference to OLivia and Hunters' "dump" and now the battle for Luc tween Irene and [soooooo appropriate] Ape man Ash .....with VJ doing all her can to find/rescue/get hold of his daughter !!!

Definitely no more spoilers. I will say though that it was VERY good to hear another VERY positive review of the movie on one of our morning news/infotainment shows this morn. Was worried, since the movie was released last week, that we wouldn't get a review on this show about the DA movie as we didn't get a movie review segment on this partic show last week, but we got one this week so all is good. btw, I'm typing latest chapter of BLADES OF SKYE !!! at the moment. Posting within the next few hours ....that's the plan anyway.

It's then no surprise that she's dating the guy who co-stars with her in the US kids show in which she stars in the movie ,.... said guy is played by Nick Westaway. Oh, and the Ben-Tara kiss in the trailer ....... actually, I don't know if I should say anything. Like, I don't want to say, as you might not want to know too much before you see the movie.

I’m not going to deny that Abigail was/is a bitch, but some of my fave H&A characters - Gypsy, Shannon, Ruby, Billie – weren’t exactly saints either. It’s about how a person “touches” you, and Grace left me cold, so to speak, for whatever reason.……and I’m not going to deny how fire bad, tree pretty that sounds. MANY thanks for reminding me that Mitzi Ruhlmann guested as well … the others you mentioned I remembered, but I initially drew a blank when you mentioned Mitzi. Not surprised especially that she was guest in DA, given that she also in ABC dramas HIDING [where somehow James Stewart played Lincoln Younes’ dad] and THE CODE [S2 of which starred Ella Scott Lynch] Saw the movie again tonight. Still EPIC ……. 2 mentions of Ethan but definitely nothing about Grace. I can see where people [reviews etc] have said the ending is the perfect end to the Tara story, but I like to think of it as the end of ONE phase of her life and the start of another [which means hopefully another movie]. Oh, and did Ben & Kat ever get together in the show??? I can’t recall.

Still loving your take in Olivia and Hunter's place. the whole John sin's thing was a nice touch ,..... and iyts almost like VJ is magnetic attracted to Billie's ...chest !!! Mat, Evie and the Justin satnav is just soooooo whacky and fun !!!

I must confess I only remember bad Grace, not good Grace …for 2 reasons in particular …… Firstly, Isobel Durant went on to play another character I wasn’t that fond of, mermaid Ondina in “h2o – just add water” spin off/sequel, “Mako – Island of Secrets” …now whether I didn’t like Ondina purely because of my memory of Grace, or things like that fact that I LOVED Ali Bertram’s Mimmi, I’m not 100% sure …….. ……and the bigger reason is that I’ve not watched full episodes of this show, for the most part, since it finished. It’s like, I’ll catch it sometimes when I’m channel surfing on weekends, if it’s on etc. Yeah, it’s more that I’ve watched, since the show ended, my ULTRA fave scenes/eps and the like [be they on store bought DVDs and my own recording off TV]. Things like…… . 1. Tara’s Red Shoes performance [of course] 2. Her “And why do we have to be naked?” O Week balcony jump with Kat; 3. Abigail’s “I love ballet. Ballet just doesn’t love me” … bonus of her counsellor being Socrates “Robert Robertson” Otto; 4. Kat’s “I have these. I have bigger these.” to a stressed out, starving herself Abigail; 5. Her “He was the BEST person I have EVER known” to the person who killed Sammy, and 6. Kat’s high school group’s “The polar bears roar their farewell to humanity” dance assessment piece …. Bonus of Isabelle Cornish and Ashleigh Cummins in Kat’s group, and that Gabrielle Schollay was in the opposing team. Funny that there’s a lot of Kat in that list, cos she’s … of the 3 main girls, she’s my least fave. I still really like her though it’s just that I like Abigail and Tara more. Further re Abigail, I can’t ever remember hating her. That stems from a number of things – her characteristics, plus Dena’s voice, and – I’m not going to lie – her physical attributes. She’s a TOTAL honey!!!!! The other thing is that I’m sure I read in those initial previews/write ups for the series, that series creator Joanne Werner is, in effect, living vicariously through Tara. Because of this, and just the way I thought of Tara initially, it was genius of Abigail, locked in a room by Tara [and probably Kat], and how she found and sent to “the world” Tara’s pros and cons list about Ethan. I know I said didn’t like Grace cos of the way she treated Tara, but by S2, I’d got to know/like Tara more …if that makes sense. Oh, and it's a nice touch that in the movie, Christian still has that cooooool phone message ..... the whole [paraphasing] Be interesting cos voice mail cost money.

To no Grace I say YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY !!!! She was SUCH a cow ....... I did like how she was REALLY emotionally affected by Tara's take on Red Shoes in the S2 finale ....and Abigail's comment about Grace's performance of such - [paraphrasing slightly I think] "Technically brilliant, but looks like she never lived a day of human emotion in her life and it showed." Speaking of the S2 finale, I liked that whilst Sammy is certainly remembered in this film, the initial draft of the script had him as a ghost [I’m guessing sim to when he appeared to Tara in her ultimately EPIC performance of Red Shoes !!!!] Oh, and I think [don't quote me on this] Kat or Abigail at least MENTIONS Ethan at one point in the movie. Also, Nick Westaway's character .....NOT a fan ...... think early days Kyle. I mean, Nic's DA role doesn't kidnap anyone and boondock them in the Outback, but he's ..... put it this way, give me most of his time in H&A Kyle over his Dance Academy character ANY DAY.

AWESOME first 2 chapters !!! LOVED VJ's very hands on way to meet Billie !!!! Also, really like your take on Ash [it's like, calling him a Neanderthal is an affront to Neanderthals] .....and I REALLY really liked your WAAAY over the top [in a good way] take on Hunter and Olivia's Particularly liked how Hunter & Liv's behaviour - everything's totally fine [with painted on smiles] -

I really enjoyed Dance Academy [definitely going to see it at least one more time big screen] .....and the ending leaves things VERY open for a sequel. YES please, I say !!! Oh, and it's GREAT that the film has received some VERY good reviews ........ https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dance_academy_the_movie/ Here's the trailer ......

Sorry, I wasn't specifically talking about that movie ...which I haven't seen ..... I was just using that term in place of actually writing Superman ....like if i'd written the Dark Knight rather than Batman. I kinda liked Batman vs Superman, but a LOT of that is Gal Gadot's take on Wonder Woman. REALLY looking fwd to the stand alone movie about the Amazonian Goddess ..... and Justice League later this year. ANd I especially LOVE that, in a world where I see countless large scale [18 inch tall and more] male figures - think Superman, Stormtroopers and Darth Vader, that they've released [and I have] 18 inch versions of Wonder Woman [form Bat vs Super] and STAR WAR Rogue One's Jyn Erso !!!!

LOOOOOVE this !!!!! Insane is too soft a word for it Althougfh i'm not really a fan of the Man OF Steel, loooved that Kyle's back story mirror'd said Kryptonion !!!!!

And things REALLY begin to click into place !!!!!!!! LOVED the unborn bub's line about wanting meat, not milk !!! And the planet Alpha Stewartus3, I don''t know where you got the inspiration for a name like that

LOOOVE your style !!!!!

I can't argue with that !!!!!

Have you no heart !!!!!!

Mermaid-zombie Hannah was coooooooool. when you mentioned a chris burger, I thought myself that someone on screen in oz did that this wekk, and I thought that someone one day will say "who was chris?" ....just like when Brody wondered who ANgelo was when he bought the restauraunt. REALLY hope [given that Bianca just bitten the dust], that Tori survives this ......and goddess Billie of course !!!! LOVING this

Although you MIGHT be teasing with your comment, pembie ........ ...... so Catherine enters the gym. She glances at VJ behind the counter as she heads right for the gym’s relatively small, but great, range of sports clothing for sale.

It's a tradition of mine, every Christmas, to catch the scene where Kee reveals to Clive Owen's character that she's preggy ....and the "parting of the red sea" moment near the end in what remains of a hotel ,,, where the british troops and the refugee army stop fighting when they see the baby with Kee and Clive Owen. the music in that scene is masterful. As a side bar to that, I also catch ALL of the Alonso Cuaron film version of "A Little Princess", having seen the BBC verion one XMas Day in the 1990s

Hunter's tea parties with his dead mother, the VERY of our time line about Hunter wishes he'd caught killing one of the zombies on camera !!!! TOO brilliant !!!!! it taking a zombie apocalypse for Olivia to figure out that Hunter's a mad man ......and her kicking him you know where TWICE !!! Kyle and THAT scarf/attempted kiss .........and Billie's line about being pregnant reminding me of Kee in the BEYOND briliant 2006 film "Children Of Men" !!!!

Cooooooooooooooooool most recent 2 chapters ...... in the 1st of the 2, I really like the idea of a "prison romance" in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. its like, yeah,. why not .....\\ and in te very latest, I like how you thought "Tabitha wasn't crazy enough when she was ON screen, lets up her crazy level to 11" ...... oh, and the whole Alf "I didn't kill the deputy" was especailly funny too.

Phoebes is sooooooooooooooooooooooo clueless and stupid !!! bigger than elvis ... I HATE elvis, but I still like him more then phoebes !!! LOVED it when Alf told Irene he couldnl't save Ireland, either taking the mickey out of her comment [or actually taking her literally]. was funny too when VJ told Billie that he wanted to hug zombie Leah cos she looked unwell [as VJ would do with his mum] !!!!\\ AWESOME chapter !!!!

I guess this is the disadvantage of me not reading too much [aside from fanfics] on this forum/website.

This is soooooooooooooooooooooo completely insane ....... and I do mean that in a GOOD way !!!!!! Still LOOOOOVE that the zombies are smitten??? by Billie !!!!! No idea why ,,,,,,,, and not necessarily caring if there isn't an actual reason. Maybe its just cos they are !!!!

I really like this. What a shocking turn of events. On the up side, Raffy and Ava, I think, are in VERY good [Tori and Brody] hands !!!!!

Billy really might not be Billy anymore ..... i'm toying with the idea, but not sure if i'll go there. And in the coming chapters, Ruby is torn about this whole sitch ...... and both teams [Skye's and her evil dad's] will be on the hunt each for a toy lightsaber ..... that Tori and Raffy buried recently.
