Yay
Always was the best name IMO. Never liked any of the names that followed. Maybe "Chez Chez" but that's very 90s now!

Didn't Stephen fall off the Waterhole roof?
Edit: Glenn fell of the Lassiter's roof but Stephen was injured in the Waterhole explosion.

Oooooo I wonder why the sudden switch to an old name.
I suspect Paul is involved somewhere

Coool! Brad used too work there, and was trapped inside, with Beth I think when there was an explosion, Stephen Gottlieb was left unable too walk for a while as a result...It was also the place they held Helen Daniels surprize party when Paul & Lucy returned, the whole episode featured all the cast I think and was only set in the pub. Great that another blast from the past is back!! You can really tell the new producer cares about the past history of the soap.!!

Good change, The Charlies name was so outdated, I think it was like 7 years ago, plus he wasnt all that anyway, should have been changed long ago.

I kind of feel bad for Neighbours. Compared to H&A their sets for businesses have always looked so bad.

I still can't see how a massive complex fits above that tiny reception of Lassiters Hotel

The Lassiter's Hotel back lot set in Neighbours was initially built for short lived 1981 series Holiday Island https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-nT...etailpage#t=50 - which featured Tom Oliver.

Oh for goodness sake. I'm so glad I don't watch anymore. Move forwards not backwards. They seem to have no faith in new ideas!

I thought the complex was next to the hotel and not above the reception as the hotel rooms would be above the reception

In the early 90s there was definitely a Mall attached to Lassiters. From The Perfect Blend;
Lassiter's Arcade The shopping centre attached to the hotel, it housed the Lassiter’s Gift Shop, run by Christina Alessi in 1990, Gabrielle’s boutique owned and run by Gaby Willis which opened in 1991 and burned down in 1992, and the newsagency, originally run by Wendy Slater, then taken over by Philip Martin in 1994. He ran it for two years before quitting to become a romance novelist. From this point on, the arcade was rarely used or mentioned on screen. The establishing shot of Paul's apartment is what Lassiter's is meant to look like, which doesn't fit what we see from the courtyard at all! |

I know it is a soap and not a documentary etc - just does stretch believability slightly for me

I have no problems with the name reverting back (though I agree with the comment on 'past glories' being dragged back into the show for the hell of it), but the new exterior looks AWFUL! Charlies was hardly brilliant, but atleast it looked a little authentic. The sign/ logo is one step away from being comic-sans!
Hopefully the interior isn't as bad... |
