Technically, Donald lost four children - Alan, Bobby, Oscar and Byron. In 1997, Marilyn suffered a miscarriage and they named their son, Oscar I remember a few years ago, I was saying to my sister how it is so creepy how the only one of Donald's children who didn't die (Rebecca), the actress who played her died in real life. I do wonder why the producers killed off three (well technically four) of his children. Coincidence or more to it than that? By the way, I have enjoyed seeing Morag back. It is pretty clear that she is up to something. Did anyone think that her wanting a photo of Bobby and crying were genuine, or a put-on? Because we know Morag so well, I believe its all of a put-on. I didn't believe her tears for one minute. She's up to something and I can't wait to find out what it is. So everyone is hating on Adam now and I didn't like the idea of Sally not being there. Thanks Dan and I don't read the thread...but I should from now on.

It would have been nice to get Sally's reaction but she was too busy hanging around with the bad seeds to take much notice.

I have finally caught up with all episodes. I like this Kevin kid. He seems nice enough. RIP Bobby Marshall. You will always be my favourite Early Years character. At the moment, Tug is my favourite male character because he has come so far since Bobby "adopted" him. I didn't like the way Greg yelled at poor Ailsa who was just saying goodbye to Bobby. Everyone knew Bobby was brain dead and no way she could come out of the coma. Even Sam knew. I still don't like Greg despite him losing Bobby. Cant wait til Morag comes back! And finally Pippa visits the hospital. Maybe she had more scenes with Bobby but they got axed? I don't know. I could do without the t shirt business. It seems pointless and stupid and taking away from the Bobby's death storyline.

Where is Pippa?? And Michael hasn't been much support either. Neither has anyone else in that family either. Sally is too busy being selfish... My stomach turned when Greg and Bobby are all happy and Greg playing with Duncan. Pippa hasn't been to the hospital once, Ailsa has been more supportive and Tug. And I found the story about Roxy and Sarah being trapped with their car very pointless. I've managed to catch up on all episodes to date.

I don't know if Perth are getting these episodes. My EPG says yes after the tennis but its never on.

Perth will be behind of the episodes because of the stupid tennis

How long do I have to be without my beloved Early Years while the tennis is on?

Its quite clear to me that Don cares about Angel. I hope she doesn't leave the house because I like her relationship with Fisher. And he bought her a teddy bear aww And aren't Shane and Angel adorable? I think they are my favourite couple now. Now that Bobby and Greg are reunited, the you-know-what isn't too far behind. We probably won't get that episode until after the Tennis.

Pippa's far too soft on Sally. This whole "let her make her own mistakes" can blow up in her face. What if something really did happen at the party? Something bad? I like Michael's approach better, he won't take any crap from the kids. And the way Sally spoke to them! I really hope will put a stop to Sally's attitude. And Craig isn't even worth it all. :/ That was the last of Adam's money-making schemes because hes got his eye on the dreaded boat. Now, I never saw the episodes that lead up to you-know-what because I was in hospital at the time having my tonsils taken out (was only Sally's age back then) so its been really interesting to watch. And they remembered Angel wants to be a writer! ;p

Of course Tug would be loyal to Bobby. She's always been there for him when no one else was. Will be looking forward to his reaction when

Ross? Ross Newton who played Greg. You know that would have made more sense! I doubt 7Two or any of us thought we would reach that far. To put it in context I think the PTB from 7Two reads these forums and realize how popular the Early Years actually is

I really liked Laura and I'm sad to see her go. Still lots of potential for the character.

Talking of pointless characters has Nick done anything recently??? Adam is the most pointless character! He has stayed far too long!. Adam sure is. All he does is give really bad dating advice. I miss his schemes and his " trust me" catch phrase. Nick is also very pointless these days.

LOL for once you and I are in agreement.

That made my day! Yay Thanks for letting us know. Yes it was vindictive of Bobby's part. I think she was punishing him though.

She hasn't changed much. She's still in my dislikes list.

I can't blame poor Bobby for being upset. This is the second husband who has cheated on her. But I disagree about her coming in between Sam and Greg. As much as I dislike Greg, he IS Sam's biological father. He has every right to see him. I liked Bill. He was a sweetheart. I liked his final goodbye. And Alf is so Team Tug at the moment. LOL, just a few months ago he couldn't stand him.

I also thought Laura would be the one to find Bill, however I liked how Bill was found. I feel for Bobby. Knowing what's coming up soon, I loath Greg even more. And do Tug and Shane eventually become friends?

Angel's a little bit ungrateful too, did she even thank Don for putting a roof under her head?

Glad Greg ended it with Fiona, he has had a couple of near misses but wish Nick told Bobby. Bobby would be angry to learn that one of her best friends kept this from her. Enjoying the friendship between Laura and Damian and I also don't remember the Bill storyline too much. Interested to see how it plays out. There's not one bad storyline going atm.

Do we get the Early Years during the Christmas break?

Yes, he's a complete tool, always has been.

Who knows. LOL. She was all over Nick when she convinced him to be in the musical. He mishandled a student and got away with it! He's underestimated his brother and its clear Luke doesn't trust Bill. I'm disliking Luke more and more as time goes on.

Shane has redeemed himself (a little bit) he was shocked and angry for Michael and Pippa. He's actually protective of the Rosses. I think it was Tug who did it. My theory is he's going back to his old ways after Sarah dumped him.

He wasn't? When did he join the cast?
