Think Luke chucked in the towel during a break and it forced a rewrite? This is just me speculating.

I love that part with the slow reveal and dramatic synth coming down and boof... Next instant her going full "Little Old Lady from Pasadena" Probably couldn't clear the rights to that song but "I wanna be Up" more than sufficed!

Celia still thought it was 1958 or earlier with some of her ways

I like Sonny for some reason, makes Lyrik less boring!

^ Just thought Martha's return was a waste of plot, character and quite frankly, Belinda, who really deserved better.

Tbf she had miscarried and there went her final shot of being a mum again

Curtis when he started was a bit of a goody-two-shoes teaming him up with Jack put paid to that

He was a bit Marmite for some but provided some memorable moments for the Diehards

Brett Bit Wet though but in 2005, he was outright murderous!

She would A) have hated his guts B) or realised he was genuinely remorseful and defended him from Alf and Irene

Jesse was fine until he and Leah split and was going down a self-destructive path which culminated in Chloe's death and his imprisonment he was... never heard from again.

Yep. It was a see-saw Year but still managed to have a bit of early years charm to it, returns notwithstanding. ITV pulling the plug Mid-Season was definitely a shocker after Channel 5 bought the rights which prevented it being shown for 13mths and we were fobbed off with butchered 1996/97 repeats in the daytime on ITV2. Them dropping eps leaving it sometimes at only 3 eps a week was infuriating. The Diner fire was somewhat hilarious due to the culprit Clumsy Colleen thinking she's helping but in fact she exacerbated it (Water on an oil fire ffs!). It's just the aftermath wasn't so funny

Well they got top Billing for 5yrs

Even Lance Smart would twig "Yeah, I reckon that Nerida Bird's gonna hurt us all"

This reminds me of a kickoff Shannon, Hayley et al would dive in on back in the day.

Of all the soaps, There's just a louder vocal disullision with Corrie at the moment. Even the Diehards have had enough. I'm deferring thr current at least a week or two these days and I'm more into the 2006 rpts.

Tbf, The Bretts, Nathans and Joshes of the world deserved it.

Maybe too good an actor and let's leave it there.

Yes. He's a bone of contention.

I'll always defend 1994 because it seemed like everyone genuinely happier and there were belly laughs galore (Jack/Fisher bedroom incident, Rob, Roxy and the overheated lift, Waterbedgate, Sleepwalking Irene, Sarah: "I look like Ronald McDonald and Shirley Temple rolled into one!") and there was *some* drama (Ross seperation, Year 12 cheat week arc, Shane/Ros)

I'd actually like to see a Lego H&A Mockumentary ala Piece by Piece (Best Lego film to date)

1994 was a year where Alf had QUITE a few comedic mishaps bad back, waterbed, Nick bending his putter ("the first time he lends the flamin' thing!"), Christmas Tree catching aflame, etc

Yup. Roo bombed her HSC but still managed to end up working for the Macklins.

Tbf Palmer *does* talk twaddle sometimes! But yeah Alf can go overboard. Mind you Maz is still on his Jock at times also, Poor JP can't get a break. He will bite back now and then though

The sinking car stunt by Shane was hilarious tbf.
