1995 Episode Discussion

But Donald asked Alf repeatedly to let go of him. He only shoved Alf to get him off of him.

 Ok so now Shannon isn't anorexic she has bulimia. Now that she has easily managed to convince Pippa she is eating only to throw up after.  I think these days it would be more of a bigger storyline and body issues are still a problem in society.

Ok so the day before Maja left. It was sad to see her go and I think I'd rather stay in Summer Bay than go to Bosnia. She was a sweet little girl, but the next episode there was no mention of her. Zilch, I mean she didn't even get to have her party and we didn't see what Pippa and Michael gave her as a present. But you think Shannon would have said something about her having to go home. We didn't even see Michael and Pippa tell anyone. Anyway that's just my annoyance. 

Where is Sam? He hasn't been seen for days

So yes maybe Fisher shouldn't have gone to the cops but Curtis you did break the law by breaking into a sports store. But for Alf to clock him one in front of the students would be highly embarrassing for Don. I'm sure they will sort things out.

And just the way I like it.

The actor probably has school at the time.

Yeah Maya's exit was dismal. It's like she wasn't even there.

When does Sally

fall off the cliff while hiking with Jack and Curtis?

JACK: I don't know, maybe I could make my skin whiter!

CHLOE: I like the way you look.

I'm glad attitudes like Max's (or is that Les Smart?) are increasingly becoming a thing of the past. It's just such a ridiculous thing to be so hateful about and such a waste of energy.

I loved it when Max was saying how Jack should get out of 'his' country and Jack replied 'When did the aborigines invite you over?'  I really like Chloe so far.

Oh my, this is a corker:

MICK: I'm glad my wife left me. Cause now I've met someone who loves me for who I am. Plain old hard-working Mick O'Reilly. 

Brilliant.

Another part that was completely cut from UK broadcast with various other bits, as well as the whole scene with Maja walking in on Shannon in the bathroom - it's a wonder us UK viewers understood a thing of what was going on back then.

I laughed so much at that line too. He's a great character, he should have stuck around.

That's atrocious. I could understand them cutting it if H&A was (inexplicably) glorifying racism or anorexia but it's clearly not.

I really wish he had. He is brilliant.

'Blokes like this give real tradesmen a bad name'. I love his lack of self-awareness.

Can't believe the Shannon scene was cut, her bulimia story has actually been pretty good so far, I wasn't expecting it to. The wardrobe and make up dept did a good job.
