Cowshed Chris Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 This would have been too easy for neighbours.The actress that played Dee is back but she is, er, pretending to be Dee. She's turned up with her daughter, who she's forcing to pretend to be Toady's daughter, while toady's wife is carrying a the baby of Steph's fiancé, while Steph herself is indeed "lezzyin' it up" but with a random.Honestly it's the wife that watches it. You really have to question what the writers are playing at. Bringing back Dee is bad enough but bringing back a fake Dee with the same actress is absolutely mental.I hear she's back for 2 months, afterwhich I expect we'll have a short break before the real Dee appears with the usual amnesia story 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fiance has this on all the time and I can't help watch (mainly for Paige!) - we've not seen the recent episodes so to hear that Dee isn't actually Dee is just fantastic The writers must have been pished when coming up with this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowshed Chris Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Apparently Neighbours only continues due to the UK following. By all accounts, it's popularity is incredibly low these days over here. On the way out, perhaps? Yet another explosion at Lassiters that kills off the whole cast should do it.Until then, I will continue to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even know what channel or time it's shown here in Oz. Whereas Home & Away is on a major network at a prime time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Been watching the London episodes this week. It's been utterly shit but hilarious at the same time. Toadie basically chases Dee & Willow around London based on Twitter posts and at one point goes to Buckingham Palace. Literally gets out the black cab for about 5 seconds and decides that they aren't there and gets back in. There's about 100 tourists in the distance looking at BP but he immediately can tell they aren't there. It all ends with Toadie finally giving into temptation and pumping Dee. Unfortunately Sonya is sitting on Skype watching it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsjfc Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Kicking off now. The guy that plays toadie is terrible actor - you'd think he'd might have improved slightly by now! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nelsjfc Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 How dare you The character is excellent tbf and 90% time he's okay. For the more emotional scenes though it's cringy to watch. His reaction to Sonia losing the baby was toe curling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordfishtrombone Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 f**k is he still kicking about. I'm old enough to remember his brother Stonefish. I haven't watched this since it got banished to channel 5. It was always amazing for women though. My top 5 would be. 1-Libby 2-Cath-3 her sister Sarah that Dr Karl pumped.4-DannI Stark, 5-Beth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mungo Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Saw a bit of this today. Some guy of either Emmerdale or Coronation Street is in it now. He wants to kill Paul Robinson! Good to see the script writers are thinking up new ideas that have never been done before. . Also... Izzy is back in it now , she has aged well and looks great. Karl and Susan in it still, I didn't have a fucking clue who any of the others were. Assuming Toady is still in it , can't imagine anyone else would give him a job. Going to make an effort to watch this once a week before it's pulled from our screens. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I still watch this shite for the perving and that I can't stand watching the news after work or some other rubbish. Some of the storylines 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mungo Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Realise almost nobody else is watching this shite but I will continue to post regardless. Watched this pish again today. The guy from Emmerdale is playing a half English/Brazilian guy whos mum died in a factory in Sao Paulo, owned by Pual Robinson. Awful storyline. The actor is brutal as well. Makes Karl Kennedy look like Al Pacino.The policewoman is cracking however - worth tuning in for. Sophie from Home and Away is in it, ( showing my age) . She was my favourite as a teenager , but she has aged very badly - looks about 100 now , big saggy chin now and generally looks like shit. Toadie used to have a little annoying fat kid that he found . He seems to have been written out. So its not all bad news. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David W Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I've watched Neighbours pretty much every day for over 20 years and I've never been as close to stopping as I am watching this Emmerdale guy. HORRENDOUS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mungo Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 The Emmerdale guy is doing my tits in. Hopefully Paul Robinson goes berserk and beats him to death with his wooden leg . Seeing Sophie from home and away in this state is also starting to make me feel sick, I actually counted her chins today. She has 3. Steph Scully still in this, she looks fantastic . Hasnt aged a day and her norks seems to have doubled in size over the past 10 years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi Shandrix Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I'm a support worker and one of my new clients is a chap of around 80 who loves Neighbours. I haven't seen it since about 1988. Amazed to see so many of the cast from that era still in it. Clive the doctor, Melanie with the weird laugh, Des from Daphne and Des, Paul Robinson and most sadly of all, Plain Jane Superbrain. The years have not been kind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The years have not been kind. Not sure why they brought back so many from that era. Clive is a decent supporting character (I'm just glad Dr Karl is no longer the only doctor at the hospital, he's not as young as he used to be) but Jane is pointless, Des is even more pointless (thankfully only makes fleeting appearances) and I can't for the life of me comprehend the point of Melanie.The script writing is as bad as ever but I still can't help watching every day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I see Neighbours has been axed. Dissapointing considering it gave us such greats like margot Robbie and Dr Karl Kennedy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
