The way that was written, it sounds like Hugo is the one that is using Ruby as an alibi....like she is covering for him for some reason?
Gina and John Palmer....oo er!

Hello
Today we learnt that Charlie had the baby 16 years ago, and that Ruby is the baby that was 16 years ago, the whole thing is a farce, Charlie is 27 years old, I know that soaps time, is not always the same as ours, but they are missing out years here, if people had a child the way she did, would they really be comfortable having them in front of them, day in day out, reminding them of what happened, which in effect is what Ruby is doing each time, without knowing it, the script writers, must think we are think and stupid to believe this.
I really hope the story line does improve.

Way back in the 50s and earlier there was such stigma on girls having a baby out of wedlock that often the grandparents brought up the child pretending they were it's parents, not grandparents. OK, sixteen years ago, 1993, attitudes had changed somewhat but the point I'm making is that grandparents pretending to be a child's parents is not uncommon, even now.
The script writers are using a scenario that has been played out many, many times in real life.
I thought Charlie was thirty, this would fit in time wise. How do you know she is 27?

I think its been awful and contrived, its plucked out of nowhere and they have changed Charlie's age to fit it. Plus there is the hideous presence of the horrible Angelo to ruin it further. Rebecca Breeds have been great though but she is the only good thing about the storyline, well that and the fact that Esther/Rebecca generally do a good job together despite EA OTT acting in other places.

I actually know someone who was brought up by his grandparents and viewed his mother as his sister - she got pregnant at a young age too. I think the explanation they gave about Charlie going away to stay with her aunt and then realising that Ruby had bonded so well with Ross and his wife was actually quite a good element to throw in. The thing about Ruby being around as a reminder is something I think that they thought would fade as Charlie came to love her. Mothers love and all that....

Can someone please tell me when they stated on the show that Charlie was 27? I can only remember reading it on here when people were discussing how old the characters were when Nicole appeared and people were trying to work out how old Roman was. All things considered, I think the storyline is not a bad one and Rebecca Breeds has been doing a great job. Shame about Xavier ruining some of her scenes! Not minded Angelo either but agree that Esther Anderson is not the most fantastic dramatic actress ever. Mind you, thought Belle's final scenes were a bit OTT with all the shaky voice and half-closed eyes carry on so maybe I just don't do well with these kinds of things!
Am I the only one who thinks Charlie has either had too much botox, struggles with crying, struggles with emotion or is a crap actress. She does that stupid face when she is crying or disgusted or hurt erg

Nope, you're not the only one! I like the character and sometimes Esther Anderson is quite good, usually when she's in angry mode, but her "distressed" acting ain't that great. Her mouth always seems to be set in the same expression and the crying doesn't seem to come too naturally. Also, has anyone else noticed how thin she's become? In the Fiver episode yesterday she had a black vest on and grey-ish trousers and she looked so skinny. I know she was never exactly huge but she looks to be going down the Jessica Tovey route and just about disappearing.
I can't believe how sad Belle's last two eps were, I cried my eyes out lol!
Gutted about Lincoln leaving, anybody know why he is? Guess Aden in pretty much the only all round totty left now!
Esther Anderson has been really hit and miss acting wise, sometimes she's really good, yet more so is she awful!
And it was never stated Charlie is 27, it's just what her estimated age was reckoned to be! And it's not like it's the first time they've aged a character to fit in a story! They did it to Martha! She should only be 20 now but they aged her when they brought her in to involve her with Tasha/Robbie/Kim, and so then they had to add a couple years onto Duncan's age when he came back too!

That's what I thought.
Agree about Belle's last scenes being really sad but for me it was more to do with the others around her and how they reacted. Todd Lasance did a really good job, I especially liked the scene after the funeral when he was yelling at Nicole about comforting him. Powerful and entirely believable.
I have missed SO much of Home and Away!! I am very ashamed to admit that I haven't watched it since it came back from summer break, have missed the Charlie and Ruby and the Belle storylines! How bad is that?!!! Really must make more of an effort to watch, tho it looks like i've avoided all the sad bits which is good as I do tend to cry lots!

Yes they did state Charlie was 27 in the episode where she went on the date with Roman.
I don't care for Lincoln or Geoff that much but I only wish it was Luke that is leaving as he is a tragically limited actor.
EA has been awful for weeks now since Wart trundled back into town and they started this ridiclous plot with Ruby being her kid.
Cokey Gordon is staying put to serve out her new 3 year contract. Her and Hugo are great compared to Charlie/Wart so I guess I don't mind Barfa much now. I hope Hugo stays as its probably him that makes Martha tolerable.

Well Aden will be gone before Geoff I think! Lincoln is in a film in Sydney - bigger and better things I guess!

Yeah, i don't hold out much hope for Todd sticking around much longer. I reckon after the big storyline he'll be outta there.

You're not gonna like this jagged but I thought the way Angelo's acted through this storyline has been great.
Especially his scene with Ruby.
