halcyon06 Posted February 16, 2009 Report Posted February 16, 2009 Thats what I thought about Paul anyway, still I have heard it about Ray a few times. Quote
grumble bum Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Alf is a bloody legend. Ray has played the part for STONE THE BLOODY CROWS,21 YEARS. Alf is a bay legend. Summer Bay will not be the same without Alf. Quote
alexx Posted February 17, 2009 Report Posted February 17, 2009 Thats what I thought about Paul anyway, still I have heard it about Ray a few times. I've been following the show for its entire run including articles interviews...etc etc and I've never heard any of those rumours. Quote

I've been following the show for its entire run including articles interviews...etc etc and I've never heard any of those rumours. I heard it in school, and I googled it, and it came up in some gossip magazine article, and yeah I know not to believe them I was just wondering if there was some reason that these rumours came about. Obviously It wouldn't affect my opinion on him, I love Ray, Alf is a legend! I was just curious. Quote
Symphony Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 How does Alf only have two pages of discussion when he's the longest character? Wowsers! That said, he does just seem to 'fade' into the background in so many of the storylines, yet if you show his picture to practically anyone in the modern society world, they'll know him as "Alf" and "flamin mongrel" which ain't a half bad achievement for a soap actor! I'd like to see him becoming more involved in this mystery storyline; particularly as he runs the bait shop and so would surely have dealings with all the 'fishy' [haha] people around Summer Bay.

halcyon06 Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 I love Alf! My all time fav character. EVERYONE KNOWS WHO HE IS! Quote
Lise Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 Alf is great and Ray does a fantastic job with him. I think they should use him a bit more. I know he had the Bridget storyline but I was never a fan of her. I like his relationship with Miles. They seem to work well together. Quote
jodlebirger Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) Alf is a background characters these days and have been that for years. But he is such an important charachter. He conntect so many of the others together that the show will be totally different the day when Ray/Alf leaves. And the show needs a character like this. A character who does normally thing, who know the most people in the bay, someone that the others turn to when they need some advice. Actually if they don't have characters like this, everything would have been a totally mess about evilness, stalkers, crimes and disasters. You need som normality to identify the unormal. Otherwise, everything would have been a total disaster! And I don't think that every characters/actors need stalker-storylines to become popular and to show their acting skills. What about an everyday problem/issue?? Edited September 27, 2009 by jodlebirger Quote
j.laur5 Posted January 20, 2010 Report Posted January 20, 2010 (edited) After watching the Early Years it makes me realise how greatful I am that Alf is still around. I was watching 1988 episodes. Back in year 1988 if If I was to guess one character that would still be there in 22 years it would have been Alf. Edited January 22, 2010 by john003au SPAG Quote
Lesley Bee Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 I love the fact that Alf is still around, he is like the backbone of the show and i would really miss him if he wasn't around i just wish the writers would give him a bit more of a storyline, they seem to have forgotten about him recently.
