Summer Break 2013

[JamesC10]

Brax won the Summer Bay Sexiest poll. But most of us already knew that lol

[Light of the Bay]

Home and Away shouldn't be about good-looking people and who oozes sex appeal.

Channel 5 are promoting the show in that vein and I don't understand why?!

[H&Alover]

Oh no pierced, it isn't Alf!!!!!!!!! Let's get our placards out and march through the bay! Agree there Light, you don't have to be good looking to be qualify as sexy, but a character one person finds good looking won't do a thing for someone else. I didn't find Heath that attractive when he first arrived, but now we've seen a different side to him he's got better looking, if that makes any sense.

Wonder which one of Brax's episodes they will use?

Summer was a bright girl spotting the attraction between Dex and April before even they were aware of it. Dex didn't really lead her on, she soon caught on, which is more than can be said for Xav.

Morag, as usual, was her sharp self, picking up on the looks between Brax and Charlie and subtly having her little say to stop Charlie making a big mistake. Interesting to see it was the episode before Angelo's and we saw Heath escorting that other River Boy out (the one 'who wouldn't be walking for a while').

[Pierced Musie]

Ya know those cheesy B-movie action films, where the person falls to their knees screaming 'noooo'?

... That was me when it became obvious that Alf was not voted #1.

But seriously speaking I am still way beyond pissed that Kit Hunter was not even on the list of those you could vote for. Plus what if I wanted to vote for recast!Hayley and not original flavour? *facepalm*

[Red Ranger 1]

Well, Alf was in the episode that got voted #1 so maybe we can pretend it's him."Keep in touch, Morag.I might need a bed."/"You're going to have so much fun, Alfred."Marilyn came across as slightly patronising in the way she wanted to turn Roo into a fellow victim.Odd how I appreciate Heath being cocky so much more in retrospect.So, we're obviously on the cusp of Romeo and Indi's hideaway being turned into Braxton Central, with Brax and Heath using it to meet even though neither of them live there.

That episode really was the nadir of Brax's "Can't arrest me, I'm a regular" phase.A guest character would have been locked up and charged on a witness testimony but Brax gets questioned and then the police don't do anything else about it ever, which makes Joyce acting as though he's achieved something all the more laughable.And Charlie continuing to be Too Dumb To Live.Ruby's really going to regret telling her to go for it...

[H&Alover]

My thoughts exactly Red about Alf being 'our' No.1!! Odd to think that back then Heath was Public Enemy No. 1 and now he's everybody's favourite guy. I remember how Marilyn and Roo were pussyfooting round each other until Alf put his foot down and made them talk through their problem. The Braxtons very subtly took over Indi and Romeo's place, didn't they I'd forgotten they had actually lived there until they had to move back to the farm. As it was a River Boy giving evidence it was bound to be viewed with suspicion. Charlie broke up with Brax again!!!!!

Back to normal service next week.

Thanks

I'm not sure. I looked but theres a good chance I missed them

[Blaxland 89]

So the general opinion is that the topic choice of episodes for this year wasn't great. Does anyone have any good ideas for next year if they do it. I thought perhaps an arrival theme.. So characters's first episodes. Or if there were two episode slots, their first episode followed by their last. And character's from all era's of the show.

Any one got any other/better ideas?
