On a more light-hearted note, when they brought Lucinda in. You know that most of her future will involve fighting with or sleeping with Nick, then Ryan, then Nick again, then Ryan. Rinse and repeat until everybody loses the will to live and stops caring who she chooses. 

 

Sounds like another terrible show called The vampire diaries I meet someone on here who liked to talk about it with me I tried to fake my excitement about it she was only young but my goodness that show was bad

Has there ever been a vampire in Home and Away? If not, why not? It can't be more implausible than some of the other things they've filmed.

If you’re going for soap opera vampire then there’s Barnabas Collins. I think it was last year during Halloween week Shortland Street had a patient who thought he was a vampire and tried to bite nurse Madonna Diaz. Not the weirdest patient, or staff member, the hospital has had.

That is a possible angle, someone who believes they are or someone else is a vampire. It’d take some contrivances, but contrivances aren’t anything new and some storylines have run entirely on them. A Halloween party would be a less intrusive way to do it.

Would you have a scary vampire like Salem lot ones that kill you or Edward sparkle like diamonds oh I’m so lovely dovey Twlight awful movie Vampire Diaries was worse though that crap went on for 6 years 

Bringing it back to the show I don’t like watching any long time illness say cancer now I think that should stop being used for stories

That's always a tricky one. Where do you draw the line between the bad things that need to happen to people, and it being too much for viewers? I don't have an answer for that. My own feeling is that if an issue touches on something too close to home, it's particularly hard to watch. Most characters seem to die suddenly or violently on H&A. I'm looking at a list of deaths and there have been an awful lot of fatal shootings.

Especially if you are a cop they should wear bulletproof vests

If you thought Remi and Bree were bad they  have nothing on Elena Damon and Stefan

Not storylines as such but:-

Any scenes with Vanessa Downing playing Pip, knowing what comes after she leaves It's hard to not get too attached to her performance in the role. 

Anything with earlier Ailsa, knowing how much her character changes (for the worse in my opinion) by the late 90s.
