    I love the tension between Imogen and Amber exploding into a scrap. And I agree about the pool. Still, another good epsidoe. Neighbours really is good at the moment.

    I enjoyed Paige and Amber's sniping at the table, some of the digs they were getting in were pretty funny. I love post-reveal Paige even more she's such a great character.

    Really good to see a proper soap catfight today, between that and the awesome Sonya/Naomi slap the other week you realise Neighbours doesn't do either nearly enough. Lol at Therese's insuation it's all Paige's fault

    Say what you want about Mason, but at least he didn't mumble like Nate does, I'm guessing he is Ex Army or something going off the picture on the funeral booklet and the comments Nate was making about his mate

    Don't often post here but I'm an avid reader! Just had to say though, what a beautiful scene between Lauren and Matt. I was actually tearing up by the end. I'm so glad they didn't go down the more predictable route of Matt seeking consolation in the arms of the "corporate ball-breaker" (got to love Paige!) and ditto Lauren and Brad - at least not yet - I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Can't wait for tonight's ep, Neighbours is on fire at the moment.

    I'm loving Neighbours so much right now. It's in incredible form. I'm finding myself having to watch at Aus pace as I can't get enough of it, and there are some fantastic scenes coming up.

    Jason Herbison needs to be cemented to this programme and not allowed to leave, he's done a fantastic job of rejuvenating the show. Paige and Naomi have been such wonderful additions.

    The days of Rani's play are now a long, distant memory.

    I'm so sorry. I'm willing to pay for your therapy sessions...:blush:

    I'm even warming to Brennan for the first time. I feel Kate's character dragged him down.

    Therese is fast becoming annoying, if she gets hit by a bus... I'd be ok with that lol.

    So Imogan's jealous of Daniel & Amber because she likes Daniel.

    I think that I'd prefer Amber if she was single for a while and I wanted Daniel with Imogen from the start.

    I love Terese, and I'm glad she saw that Imogen was the villain. I hope she will apologize to Paige.

    Imogen had two epiphanies today: 1) she secretly likes Daniel, and 2) she admitted she's been nasty lately. Now, all she's got to do is stop being nasty and all will be fine.

    I quite liked the Bailey story today. I think Calen MacKenzie played those scenes pretty natural, and I've not been all that fussed by him before.

    The scenes of Josh Willis roaming around the street starters will no doubt be reminiscent of Henry Ramsay doing the same thing all those years ago...!

    He's improved massively since Kate's death, I even quite like Brennan now :o similarly I'm getting fonder of Josh now he's away from Amber. For something I really didn't think would work and was slightly dreading, Josh/Naomi's is surprisingly enjoyable and working well.

    I actually found myself feeling sorry for Terese today despite the fact she's being portrayed as the 'baddie'. It must be hard adjusting to learning your partner has another child with someone else. She put a lot of effort into celebrating Brad's birthday and he walked out on her. To then catch him meeting in secret with his ex-girlfriend and their daughter it's no wonder she's annoyed.

    I'd be p!ssed off by that too. Especially as Brad didn't tell Terese the truth about going there.

    Terese was doing my head in, but now I'm starting to feel sorry for her, I really can't stand Imogen though.

    It's amazing. Josh and Brennan are a thousand times better without those actresses dragging them down. They've totally got their spark back.

    And I love Josh and Naomi.

    I agree. I felt massively for Terese! I confess I'm not that fond of Lauren as I always feel she's trying to rekindle things with Brad - albeit slow and subtly!

    BIB: He didn't even eat any of the cake she bought, either!

    I'm glad she's realised that how she's been acting has been all wrong. I do believe she wants to fix things, too. How awful for her see her husband having fun with his ex and their long-lost daughter eating cake that Lauren made, celebrating his birthday. That must have stung!

    I think Imogen would have stayed longer if Josh hadn't of bolted. While he's improved as a character without Amber, he's still self obsessed enough to walk on his dad's birthday for a booty call! And is that all they got Brad - PJs?! Poor guy.

    I feel that, too. It's like subconsciously Lauren wants to recapture what was once lost with Brad. I believe she does love her family with Matt, but I think if the chance ever came up, she would ditch Matt for Brad in a heart beat.

    Naomi is the best new character in years imo. Neighbours has a terrible habit of employing actors with absolutely no charisma. She is a nice change.

    This is what has peeved me off with Neighbours for years now. The actors used to make the characters fun and interesting and didn't just act straight laced and bland all the time. Then the show went down this route and the characters became boring and bland. It seems to be getting back to its old self now with characters who have a twinkle in their eyes. There's still some crap characters though - Matt for example.

    Bailey, Chris, Nate, Kyle, Georgia, Josh, Imogen, Amber, Daniel - there's barely a shred of stage presence or charisma between them

    Aaaah for the days of Scott and Charlene, haha. I'm surprised Kyle gets off so lightly on here as I find him hideously wooden. I don't mind Chris or Georgia though.
