I think they struggled with making the characters is 3D characters in the early 90s, and not just a "a cop" or "a teacher". Nick, Luke, Grant and Roxy were mainly cast as their occupation and on the flip side Lou and Ben were purely a vehicle for family dramas with limited connection to anyone outside of 2 -3 characters. This meant to an extent they only served one purpose or could work well with one age group of characters, limiting their storylines. When the show moved into the mid-late 90s with Travis, Stevo v2, Kelly and later Sally, Shauna, Harry and Vinnie we see these characters could have scenes with all ages and groupings of characters, whether it was socially or through their work.

Yeah I think we need a Beachside diner to talk about everything up until Sally left.

Did we ever see where Ailsa lived before she moved in with Alf?

The lead singer is actually Sia

Episode 7395? Stuck with U by Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber

Didn’t Steven mention he was with someone like May-Ling?

Students can leave school after they turn 16 years old if they have an apprenticeship, TAFE course or full time job to go to and have parental consent. Students also receive a Record Of School Achievement (ROSA) at the end of Year 10 which is a qualification that highlights marks and achievements to date. The ROSA replaced the School Certificate in 2012 which was a similar to the HSC in which students had to do a series of exams.

How many sieges have there been at Summer Bay High? I recall one in 2001 with Dani, Brodie and Sally and one in the mid 90s. Have there been any more?

Maddy also repeated and then dropped out.

Golly gosh. The Blaxland and St James church on the same day. Bring back some blasts from the past for the 30th

Does anyone have a timeline for Alf's kids. What years were Roo, Quinn, Owen and Duncan born? and do we have anything similar for the grandkids? (assuming there are just Martha, Ric and Bryce).

Didn't he sell it to fund Pippa's treatment? Not 100% sure so may need someone else to verify my memory

This was the fire that happen due to the Australia Day riots where Hazem (Leah's boyfriend at the time) and Geoff were injured.

Hi Guys, I have heard through some contacts that Plus7 is getting a revamp. In addition to adds, they will be having some (generic) fun facts about each show. Do we have a list of any or can we put our heads together and come up with some, keeping in mind that they would have to transcend time as they won't be updated regularly. An example would be that the show's working title was "Refuge".

Looking at recent years, it seems we are having a trend of losing a baby every year aswell as the birth nearly every year.

Very conscious that she doesn't turn into Bianca to Heath (Justin), as I can already tell from the dislike for one another that they will end up together.

Are we able to see stats from these (perhaps monthly or yearly), or will we just have to tally ourselves?

I was wondering if anyone on the forum does a character count or lists the episodes that each character appears in.

Irene has recently. So maybe this is prompting more info to come.

Summer Bay (Palmy) is a part of Sydney, yet is not in the City CBD.

How many sets of twins have we had on the show? We had; Carly and Samantha, Sally and Miles, Kirsty and Jade/Laura, Matilda and Henry, Evie and Oscar. Were Justine and Aaron twins or just brother and sister? Have I forgotten any?

She had the scuba diving near drowning, and also had a decent storyline when she was taking "uppers" during her HSC. I see really strong similarities between her and Spencer, who were brought in as part of a duo that were fostered, and then snubbed both family and relationship wise, as the writers used them to fill cast numbers.

Have Leah's 2nd and 3rd marriages been as a result of her being in love with Dan and Zac respectively, or is it just a result of her being scared of being alone?

Do we know who was the first teens or a list of teens who have dropped out of school? There don't seem to be as many in TEYs episodes compared to current eps.

I've missed a couple of weeks of episodes on TEY and they are no longer online on PLUS7. I really want to catch up as I last saw Angel's plane crash (ep1717) and am trying to find somewhere to fill in the gaps, as I'm loving the current Jack/Chloe storyline as well as Irene and her new man.
