I didn't want to know the spoilers, but I am weak, and I clicked. Now I'm all open mouthed and ohmygod.
One very sad thing that I wasn't expecting although I should have been as I couldn't work out how it would happen. One thing that is supposed to be sad but actually is pleasing.
And Rainbow! Gadzooks.

OMG Sally on the LC front page!
I've been watching Oz eps since the season premiere and they are brillo! The stuff with Cassie has been great, and I can't believe so much has happened with Sally so far, I thought all that stuff would be saved for her departure. It's made me curious to know how she actually leaves now.

OMG Sally on the LC front page! It would be even more amazing if she was in floods of tears in the picture, as that's always how I like to think of Sally. Re: the spoilers, THAT IS AMAZING.

It's a shame that a lot of people won't know to watch these eps as they have gotten used to H&A being all sensationalist stalkers, but this stuff is great cos it acknowledges so much of the show's history. Not just recent shitty Sutherland history, proper hardcore Tom and Pippa stuff. Anyone know which of the former cast are officially confirmed to be reappearing this year? So far, we will see/have seen: Tom Fletcher Kirsty and Kane Floss Johnny (ok I know he was never a full-time cast member)

This has been a cracking few days of Home and Away.
Johnny! Sally! Roman! Miles! Awesome! The stabbing was horrific.
Anyway, I'm hanging out for Rachel and Tony to be a forever deal. I see them as the new Pippa and Tom, Sally and Flynn, foster parents sent from heaven to help sad kiddies, blessed with patience, wisdom and humour.
Plus La Bellingham is back for 6 months and does a storyline with Aiden which I am rather looking forward to.
It's all good in the bay, and I'm hoping shiny gal and Henk stay away...

This week in Australia (which is KILLING ME because my computer is broken and I cant watch as it happens): Alf, Morag and Colleen are all related! I believe they are half siblings or something. Apparently this means Alf has been in an incestuous storyline of his own as I read somewhere he had a brief dalliance with a sheila called Maureen (I think) which is related to Colleen? There is a chance I dreamt I read that but still. I think Mrs Smart's face says it all:

I don't like the way Johnny was looking at Mattie yesterday as she slept.

I was totally addicted to H & A about 4 years ago but only had shitty freeview when we moved and lost C5. Now I have cable and because its on straight after neighbours I am getting sucked in again.
So far all I can really add is that I don't like the credits. Can anyone fill me in on who Johnny is? I have searched online but keep finding too many spoiler type things.

Johnny Cooper is the older brother of Rocco Cooper, a bad-gang-member-turned-almost-good who stabbed Sally about a year or so ago. When Sally survived the stabbing, Johnny went apeshit and ended up killing him, because the only way you ever leave a gang is through death, apparently. Ace Detectives Ric and Matilda worked out that it was Johnny who killed Rocco (Ric was in the frame for his murder, after it was revealed that Rocco had stabbed Sally), and he was sent to jail, but has since escaped and re-stabbed Sally to finish off what Rocco started. It's all a bit grim, but ends with the awesomeness that is - SAM DYING!!! which will truly be a day of excellence. Johnny also used to be in Heartbreak High, and is quite fanciable.

Thank you very much Schmindie.
It was bugging me why Johnny looked familiar. Ah Heartbreak High. They should re-run that too....

Are all gang members in Australian soaps called Rocco?

I just watched Sally's final scene on Youtube and I'm now crying like a baby.

One of my enduring sadnesses about growing older is that I grew away from having the time to watch Home & Away. Sally's final scenes had me in tears too.

They were trying to do a moving tribute to Dan Baker and filmed the school kids on the beach holding their own renegade memorial, and fucking hell, I have never seen so many flies in all my life. Kudos to Belle and Drew for managing not to scream, but both used the opportunity of looking sad and stressed to constantly cover their faces with their hands and wipe away flies. Ugh, absolutely revolting.

I noticed the flies too and briefly wondered if decomposing dead Dan was joining them for all that sanctimonious crap crutches boy was spouting. I'm not meant to like him right? He makes my teeth clench and his face is funny is all.

The flies seem to be an ongoing thing at the moment, they are still rampant in the Aus episodes (5weeks on from where we are now) Also future/spoiler case of intersoapiality with a new cast member

Oh noes to the ongoing flies, and to the spoiler too. Bleurgh!

HA! I had a real Home and Away dream last night where Roman tried it on with me, Martha was giving me evil stares as a result, and Leah had a child called Moses. No more cheese before bedtime for me...

I am loving Sam being found out, and Jacks dilemma. Exciting stuff. And a new diner on the way, and seeing the back of whiny/shiny Cassie. But I am sad about Sally's imminent departure.

H&A right up to Sally/Cassie's departure is brilliant. The new H&A after that is weird - in that it's such a change from what we were used to before. It's very late 90s Home and Away, not exactly slow-paced but not a 'Who will die?' with every episode. It's nice. Oh and one thing I'm loving... Jazz and Miles! I can't believe I used to hate her, she's been brilliant since she came back for Dan's funeral. It's a pity she's not permanent.

Re: Spoiler - omgz. That's weird.
Hmm "nice" doesn't sound very thrilling. I am liking the whole Sam/Johnny thing very much. I hate Sam's mouth. ugh.
Looking forward to more Morag, and Aden's rehabilitation a la Rik.

Oh Morag is brill. Pure class. They're trying not to make Aden into Ric i.e. turns into a good guy over night. He's made a lot of progress but there was a scene the other day where he was nasty to Morag for no reason and Roman's reasoning was 'It'll take time'
Nicole is fun, if a little over the top.
When I say nice, all I mean is good storytelling. You still have the more dramatic storylines, i.e. Ric's fighting (Which incidentally, ties in nicely with his backstory of being a Really Agressive Character and could possibly pave the way for his and Matilda's exits... which have also been confirmed recently)

Jazz is still on screen in Australia and doesn't seem to be leaving yet which is brilliant as she is ace. And also, Nicole is very annoying and even manages to sound dirty talking to her own dad. Vomit.

I think she leaves w/c 17th, could be wrong though. They really need to bring her back permanently, she is BRILLIANT.
Re: Nicole, in an effort to overplay the Minx/Hottie/Vixen Character, as the promos love to call her (over and over and over again...) she does come off as flirting with Roman, unintentionally. And it's very ewwww.

What was going on with Aidens injury make up? Green eye shadow for bruises and red crayon for streaks of blood?
