He must have had a lot of dentist work inside.

so Bobby's death... While it was very sad it was also an anticlimax (like other things in the early years, for example Sophie's baby storyline for example). The episodes before it were difficult to watch with Bobby and Greg planning a future and another child etc. I bet the writers did that to make it worse for the viewers. However it focused on Greg too much. I would have liked to seen the reaction of you know SALLY!!!! and to see the true impact of Pippa and Alisa. While Fisher was good it was still annoying to watch Greg acting like this!!

ummm... Silence again. So nice to hear what Carly, Steven, Frank, Sophie, Lou and you Know Rebecca Bobby's sister think of this tragic situation... Not.

Its quite scary to think that I am really sad that we have reached this point with Bobby- Ever since we started the early years she has been one of the main character with only the second half of 1989 being a low point!! I wish she would just wake up....

seen up to 1297 now and oh Boy its it difficult to hear Bobby and Greg planning to have a baby of their own knowing what is coming in the very next episode. THese writers did decide to make it as cruel as possible for the viewers!!!!!

okay- When Adam returned in 1999 did he and Marilyn have much screentime together. I was thinking about how close they were in 1990/91 and I was thinking about them. Or had the Byron story started by then which spelled the end of Emily in that stint?

Don't we all!!! Its nice to see Bobby and Greg getting along if only for Sam's sake! As I recall this must be Adam's

Yeah I think its a pity with Laura as well. Its now really scary how close we are to I doubt 7Two or any of us thought we would reach that far. To put it in context

At this point I'm convinced that they made Tina sign a two year contract in the middle of 1992 when she was proving to be quite decent in the role and now everyone else in her age range as gone they cannot afford to exit her contract

you know only knowing snippets of what happened before the early years came along I thought that Greg was the evil monster and Bobby was the victim in everything and her response was reasonable. HOWEVER despite Greg being an idiot and cheating on Bobby I cannot help but feel sorry for Him and not Bobby! Bobby was hurt I grant you but using Sam like this is not wise and downright nasty Talking of pointless characters has Nick done anything recently???

I have enjoyed the happy home and away that we have seen in the past few weeks since the beginning of 1993 (baring the shane dramas) but as people have said next week we go into the the second third of the season which I think starts with and sadly ending with the which I'm now 100% certain that the producers knew about now and were planning it!!!

I have to agree Sophie. 1993 is another reset year for me (along with 1990) and its slightly new to me either.

Now that Karen and Sophie and Lou are gone can we finally leave David Croft behind us? Lets look to the future with Luke, Roxy, Sarah three of the greatest characters ever!!!

Fantastic Update- I never Knew Angel had a third child!!!! Great to see photos alongside these as well!!!

Well I have seen this weeks episodes and I have to agree with the majority here Having Sophie leave before Karen arrived seemed like a cop out (the previous two weeks seemed to have Sophie do nothing until she left which meant Belinda could have been brought in earlier and Sophie could have had an epic final few episodes). Oh well. Fin is now in the year below which is strange but they had to do something with the character now that her 'teen group' gang are gone/going. Lynne is wonderful at the moment as Irene and no wonder she is brought back later in the year!!! Shane is REALLY annoying at the moment and I think Nick is handling it the right way by throwing him out. I hope it teaches him a lesson and makes him grow up a bit!!! And finally Sarah seems nice but maybe a bit dull. Time will tell.

I'm slightly sad to see sophie go but probably because I won't have anyone to whinge about for a while. Oh wait Roxy is about. That will keep me going until 1995... Shane is reacting really stupidly to being released and begging was really awful as well. Nick has every right to chuck him out. I am loving Irene at the moment and the chemistry she has with Sally is really strong and I am glad it will stay that way for the next 15 years.

Does anyone else feel that the closing titles don't look right in black and orange anymore compared to the glossy opening titles? Maybe I know colour is coming for them but at the moment they look quite odd.

1993 has had a good start tbh. I am really liking the new teen group but I do feel for Fin being stuck between the groups now. Or Maybe I'm enjoying it more because Sophie is leaving soon (lets be honest we did need a break from the character). But the main reason I'm enjoying these episodes at the moment is that I know

Not really to be honest- they don't have any imports on ITV1 anymore (expect past 11pm and for kids and they are always fine) most of there imports are on itv2 and itv4 and they aren't touched at all.

Sadly she doesn't count to me as an original cast member but its great to see a familiar face in the show now. Its amazing to think that she was brought in just to cover Debra's maternity leave.

Finally someone who can confirm that Tamara's birth was shown AGAIN in the Uk and I wasn't dreaming as a 5/6 year old!!!

I have to agree with this season ending the early years with being the most obvious storyline that marks the end. Do we have an exact date of when Alisa cuts her awful hair at the moment.

I think Sophie has reached the end of her time in H&A naturally. And Natasha you are not alone in hating Alisa's hairstyle. What was Judy thinking?

oh god that really does look bad to be honest.
