Loved the wedding liked Lauren's hair up too, I think it was the dress that was a bit wrong and the lippy.

Dance made me smile, And isn't piper absolutely stunning ! Glad to see her and Tyler getting on together again, I quite like them as a couple.

Hopefully if Sonia isn't pregnant that might make it possible for her and toadie to get back on an even keel, they've been too close to the rocks for too long now, I liked it when they were a happy couple.

I thought the dancing was great in cheesy way because, lets face it, some weddings are like that in all honesty but most of all it was quite a little throwback to old school twee neighbours which was what it used to excel at, this final week has been quite strong and whats even better is that there is not some sort of stupid stunt to end it on just good storytelling.

Was nice to see Paul and Therese together but we all know what will happen right? This is a soap and Paul Robinson after all!!

I honestly think Sonya is pregnant and felt a bit dizzy or crampy so told people it was her period. I think she knows she's pregnant - sometimes you just do.

Has Elly only got one pair of shoes? She wears those impossibly high ankle strappy things for everything - work, nights out, a wedding. If she could walk in them then fair enough but she looks like either a newborn giraffe or as if someone has stuck a stick up her bum.

Yes but if Terese told her she needed them to help Ned Piper would do it
Or Piper being the hot head she is, would storm over to Tim and make it worse. Or maybe she does not want her kids involved.

I love Typer too and I think Piper is beautiful. She is a natural beauty not flashy or tarty.

I think they have much better chemistry than Tyler had with Paige. It's funny how we all see things different ways. Makes life interesting!
Yes, another Typer fan - we are an endangered species!

You're a man - I think mums are more repulsed by it than men especially those of us with teenagers. Would I allow my child to go out with someone Tyler's age who had previous casual sexual relationships? No way in hell. I know Terese is a pretty awful mother and didn't bat an eyelid when Piper told her she'd lost her virginity to a one night stand with a neighbour and I'm a helicopter parent so maybe that's it.

Why do you feel sorry for Elly? Aren't you intrigued about what she'd done that would have been brought up in Court?

I wish they'd decide who Xanthe is. Is she a hurt child missing her mum or a daft lass with no thought for anything but what she looks like? I like her as a hurt child much better than when she's vacuous.
Well, fathers of teenage girls are notorious for being over protective, or so the stereotype goes. I'm not a father of a teenage girl so I don't view the story through those eyes. But, I can understand that point of view. However, did you feel the same way when Libby slept with Taj? Would things be different if Piper was a teenage boy? Piper could date someone her age who has had casual relationships, too. If they really love each other then shouldn't that count for something?

I started to feel a little sorry for Elly after her ex used her for sex. She seems quite a tragic woman in some ways. Remarking how Angus is the only guy who actually wants to be with her, was sad. And then seeing her crushed again when she realised she couldn't rely on Ned. She is a narcissist, generally unlikeable, but there is also a sad desperation about her. But, given how prone Elly is to never taking responsibility for her own actions, I could easily stop feeling sorry for her. I guess whatever her secret is it has nothing to do with teaching. However, how is it that Susan doesn't know about her criminal record when she hired her?

Can't Xanthe be both a hurt child and a vacuous ditz?

Sorry but Piper and Tyler is wrong. She's a schoolgirl and he's 25
I think he is definitely supposed to be 22, as they mentioned his age during his abuse story last year. I guess they never bothered to cover Travis' tattoo.

Just catching up with the wedding. Lauren looks kinda terrible in that getup.

Please, for the love of Elvis, don't let Sonya be pregnant. I can't take nine months of her superciliousness.

Have to agree, plus I just cannot take to Piper she's so irritating.

I'm hoping the woman in the pic is Dee so we can get rid off annoying Sonya.

He acts about 15 and she appears older plus it's a soap for me normal rules don't really apply, I'm not sure how old they are I real life but I'm betting she is older than she plays.

I like Sonya too but that weird smile when she read the pregnancy result seemed to come across as evily psychotic to me!
So I guess I can finally relate to all those who loved Paige at first bit now hate her, coz that's currently how I'm feeling about Sonya!!
I hate that they have done this to her and made her so awful during this surrogacy!!

I hope 'Dee's' return isn't like when the exact double of Kerry Bishop turned up. Her snogging her 'Dad' Harold is still the low watermark for terrible, terrible Neighbours' plots.

Poor Sky in that storyline.

So why exactly is Therese bothered about Tim Collins?

Brad has just married someone else, Ned isn't related to her at all. Unless I'm mistaken she didn't pay the old bag any money as Brad was setting things up in case he carked it, which, unfortunately he didn't.

Just tell Collins to do one.

PS. If Brad had died, did he expect that Therese would continue paying out her own money?

I'm taking it that both Sonya and Paige are pregnant - i.e. that two lines means a positive. I'm assuming the different colours red and blue are related to the brand of pregnancy test kit being used. Blast Sonya and this surrogacy storyline anyway (unless it ends up being Toadies)! Jack and Paige isn't much better.

Kathy's mother looks great. I also preferred her dress to Kathy's. They actually make quite a good mother/daughter combo in looks.

Thought I was sick of the Paul / Therese storyline being dragged out but seeing them together again today they're actually quite funny and good together and it seems spark is still there.

That was a good end of season episode, I liked it.

I'm catching up on Demand 5 player. I do find it funny how Ellie worries about telling Susan about Angus, because she doesn't want to look unprofessional. She wasn't worried about being unprofessional, when she bullied Piper Ellie is already unprofessional and a poor Teacher, who bullied Piper and favours Xanthe.

Husband 😉 - I would find any adult and a schoolchild distasteful. I did find Libby and Taj wrong even though she was going through an awful time and was an emotional mess. If my 16 year old son went out with a 25 year old woman I'd be absolutely furious whether they said they loved each other or not. Once kids have left school (and are not chasing after someone who shagged their sisters) they can do what they want with some guidance. Sadly Piper doesn't get much of that from her neglectful parents.

Xanthe is better as vulnerable than self centred. I don't think they go well together.

I hate Elly. I couldn't bring myself to feel sorry for her.

Tyler's age was changed and it was mentioned that he was now 25 after the close ups and focus on the tattoo. I've not quoted you as the post would be huge!!

Did Brad say in his vows that he wouldn't abandon Lauren 😂. Well that would be a first.

Those bridesmaid dresses didnt leave much to the imagination boobage wise. Lots of shots of Paige's front side boobs.

I KNEW Sonya was pregnant.

Piper and Tyler in bed together - yuck.
