Jamie!

I agree with a lot of what you say. And with the bit I've highlighted in bold - in the years before that, we've had Brax and Casey, Andy and Josh, Ash and Billie, Colby and Bella. And a lot of these sibling relationships, (all of the ones I've mentioned and a couple of yours), have all been the older sibling being overprotective towards the younger sibling. It's just exactly the same sort of thing for the past 14 years, repeated ad nauseam. We're way overdue for a change.

In no order: Pippa, Donald, Sally, Alf, Ailsa, Irene, Bobby, Marilyn, Colleen, Morag.

I've always liked Floss. I like how she has such a big personality with an equally big heart. I could imagine she'd be a lot of fun to hang about with in real life.

I think it's a case of the producers not being at all interested in Home and Away's past. I think they want to make out like it never happened.

They've now posted this:

I feel that it was another attempt for them to just bring back the River Boys full stop. I am still fully expecting for them to bring back Rory as a full-time character one day, and have all the other characters very unsubtly telling us that he's a "good guy" and trying to conveniently make us forget all his wrongdoings, where also, they'll have a female character who like Felicity, finds him totally irresistable and think he's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Where did you hear that? I've looked on the Home and Away Early Years Instagram page and they haven't said anything.

There's a YouTube playlist of a whole bunch of underscores from the Early Years of Home and Away. They were all memorable and beautiful and make me wish that the show still had them: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLq0eLfZKOODtOXrwBBZBXcw-SvCphvt-Y
