It's nice to read about one of the younger Aussie stars pledging more time and loyalty to the show that made them famous rather than doing the obligatury 2/3 years and counting down the days until they can ditch it and go to Hollywood and become movie stars. It's made both Home and Away and Neighbours a bit predictable as a bunch of characters are introduced at the same time and three years later the same batch of characters all depart at the same time and then it's just repeated. Not saying Olympia should stay forever but i really like Paige so it'll be nice to have her for another year (as long as this dreadful Paige/Jack storyline isn't going to drag on throughout it).
Still got my fingers crossed that Mark/Paige might one day be reunited if both Olympia and Scott are hanging around for a while.

I think Mark works better with Steph than Paige now.
I believe Twitter confirmed that Olympia is staying on Neighbours and has signed a one year extension to her contract which means she will be on screens until June 2018 as Paige.
I think it makes sense for Neighbours to extend her contract as Olympia is the only one of the current cast members who gets the show press outside of soap/TV magazines and keeps the shows in the papers.
I do find Paige rather annoying, but at least Lauren will stay on the show. Mind you, they could always turn her into a foster mother. Or have a baby late in life.

Oh God they were awful together. Just awful. The age gap between them may have only been 10 years but with Paige's immaturity and Mark's old beyond his years persona the age gap between them seemed massive. Their relationship was like watching a boring, joyless dad being constantly exasperated by his fun loving, juvenile daughter's behaviour. Both characters work better away from each other.
That's good news. I like Paige and I like Mark too. Not together though, I like Mark with Steph. I also prefer characters to hang around for a while, it's so annoying when they leave when you've just got used to them.
I don't really like the character of Paige, but it is refreshing to see one of the younger cast members to stay and not hot foot it to LA at the first opportunity. I hate the way all the younger cast leave fairly quickly.

If she stays I hope they give her better material to work with instead of ruining her character.

Its good to see she is committing to the show.
