I can imagine Tom and Debra Pippa lot more then I can Vanessa Pippa and Michael .

Micheal would left in couple more years anyway as both Debra and Dennis move to Melbourne and that’s why Debra quit show and there’s every chance Debra might decided to leave show further down track even if she had stayed living in Sydney. I do however think would be interesting if Pippa and Michael did leave Summer bay together as I wonder what storyline they would to give them reason to leave . But however with both Irene and Ailsa house full up at time they probably would had to still asked Travis and Rebecca to take over.

I think Roo definitely has improved since her return and giving her storyline’s and Georgie really brings Roo to life when given opportunity for something to work with.

I think they should wrote out Ben and Carly after they got married as they basically did nothing for reminder of their time . I do wonder if Tom had lived if Tom and Ben might of clashed more once they were living under same roof .

Cornelia Frances was type actress that could make any character she played are strong character and always put her heart and soul into it. But unfortunately I can understand why she didn’t last long on H&A as regular as direction they were taking show in she wasn’t type character that would fit in that era of H&A and why would like to see Morag and Bobby have bit development but unfortunately writers seemed to want keep them hating each other and was starting get bit old them throwing insults at each other. I could see Morag being one to put Lois in her place had Morag somehow still be on show til 1991. But I think H&A did well keeping 5 original characters for first ten years though Pippa being recast. Irene and Sam and Marilyn all being around 5 years or more mark by 1998.

Only roles she ever really was mean was in early years H&A and her guest appearance in Prisoner and even in Young Doctors i wouldn't say her character Sister Scott was nasty but just someone who meant business and had no time for people fooling around in work place.
