Quick Questions

[Ryan]

During 1998 and 99, the show was struggling and so in 2000 an effort was made to, and successfully, to reposition the show.

Can someone tell me why the original actress, that played Pippa, left & was replaced with the one we now see as a guest, every so often?

Also, when did Colleen make her 1st appearence?

Just curious really.

I'm not sure if this is right but I've read that Vanessa Downing quit because of Roger Oakley's departure.

Colleen made her first appearance in episode 36 and only stayed for a few months. She returned as a guest in 1997 then left and became a regular in 1999.

Thanks for the info river4ever

Am really pleased Colleen was made a regular, she's great, should be used more though.

Yes thats reason why Vanessa left and iam very surpise she quit just becouse Roger left and it got me thinking maybe Vanessa had carsh on Roger or something. My sister kept magazine form 1990 and in magazine there was saying that Vanessa was leaving and Vanessa said why she was leaving becouse and she said i love playing Pippa and working on home and away but its just non shame without Roger and thats why iam leaving.

I don't remember that, but I do remember Ailsa and Duncan crashing into a lake and Ailsa going into a coma, then when she came out of it she turned evil for a while. That was from 1999 I think.

Thanks, but I'm not sure if that is the right crash!!

Perhaps it is, maybe it wasn't Marilyn, but it was a woman with blonde hair!

Anyone know??
