No no, you've got it all wrong. I am sure you will find that was just Piper being really deep and cultured and mature and stuff.

Just when you think Jimmy couldn't get any more annoying, he notch it up. Weird looking kid too.

What is becoming quite comical is the shocking way incidents with Jimmy are filmed. When you thought it couldnt get much worse than Jimmy walking into the fence and spraining his arm after an innocuous collision it got worse with this Pepper Spray incident. one moment both Charlie and Jimmy are sitting down and the next Charlie is on the floor. It was very badly done and could have been done a lot better and simpler.

I don't know if this has been asked before as I haven't read the whole thread, but is Walter Jade's dad too? Or does Jade not exist anymore?

well they always looked like half sisters, so maybe now they are not even sisters at all.

I assume he isn't otherwise they would have said something by now. Jade has been mentioned a few times lately by Sonya so she's not completely forgotten.

I'd love it if they brought Jade back, and Gemma Pranita did say at one time she'd be open to a return. Always did like that character a lot.

Jimmy has to be one of the most annoying kids on the soaps.

I don't understand why Neighbours is so bad at casting kids, but they really are. Who cares about bratty Jimmy acting out? With his end-of-the-world tone of voice and severe, emotionless face, the kid is seriously terrifying. Charlie is an absolute shocker of an actor as well, and Angus is just such a phenomenally smug git, you cannot possibly feel sorry for him. The brats have taken over Ramsay Street and I am close to switching off for a bit.
All three kids appear to have fallen out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down.

The writing on today's episode is shockingly bad. Sonya's sister's dialogue was just so unnatural; nobody talks like that in real life. Only good bit of today's episode was cute bomb Nell!

Jimmy is Bobby Beale Mark 2. It won't be long until he attacks Amy with a chainsaw.

I've heard the Charlie actor is the son of "someone" on Aussie TV, so it's job for the boys.

Piper is by far the best teenage character on the show right now. A strong actress, playing a strong character. I like Ben and Xanthe too, but Piper is brilliant.

Seeing as Sonya's mother cheated with Walter and produced Sonya maybe she had another slip with the Thai neighbour to produce Jade? The actress is half Thai and it was glaringly obvious that her and thingy who plays Sonya weren't a bit alike. I liked Jade - she was a strong character well acted by a stunning looking girl which is a rare thing. She ought to come back and support her sister with this Walter stuff. Or is Amy kind of a replacement for Jade - (was) going out with Kyle, living at the Canning house, strong independent woman and very pretty too?

I hope Walter's younger daughter stays, thought she was actually quite good. But once again Jimmy is annoying, if I was Charlie think I would have punched him when he started making chicken sounds.

Sonya presumably thought Jade was her full sister until 'uncle Walter' revised his true identity. SO Jade is her half-sister.

Back to the brats - could you believe that anybody would pay good money for that 'concert' today? And Susan still hasn't blown the whistle on their 'charity' fundraising!

But still obviously has Asian heritage which was never explained. Maybe we just weren't meant to notice.

Just been catching up on the last few episodes. I assume Paige's green, bra-less, wiggly breast top was the wardrobe dept's way of making up to male viewers for how annoying she has been lately?

Can anyone else see a future couple in Mark and Amy? They do look quite well matched, more so than him and Steph.

Just looking on Neighbours wikipedia page, has Ned actually left for good? was expecting him to return after he has given his Dad and Lauren some space.

Yes he has gone. He was a guest character. I think he most probs be back in the future.

But still obviously has Asian heritage which was never explained. Maybe we just weren't meant to notice.
Their full sisters. Did not really see anything too it tbh. Jade is just a little darker. Maybe her dad( who Son thought was her dad) is darker

its difficult, he cares about her and wants to support her but it keeps getting out of hand and lets face it with Brad of r a father it's not like she has much other support
Of couse she has other support. She had Ben, Xanthie, Paige, Lauren and all the neighbours and Ned and Imogen still( only a phone call away). Tyler is the one who is embaressing. Grown man playing with silly small cars and creeply fawning over school girls. He is more creepy than Brodie tbh. Nate and Courtney, Josh and Imogen all warned jim over Piper and he as the elder should make the stand.

Agree with everything you said! Cant believe they have made Terese suddenly have a change of heart and personality regarding Lauren and telling her 'still husband' that he should focus on his relationship with Lauren and she loves him so much blah blah blah. Come on Neighbours!! In what universe would this EVER EVER happen?? Its bad enough she has to co-exist on the same street as her cheating husband and home wrecking 'friend' Lauren but to have us believe she would give Brad relationship advise to save what he and Lauren has?? Bull!! Keep the characters true in their beliefs, their hurt and their emotions- dont just turn a character in to some happy forgiving saint because you feel like it. This really annoys me and is an insult to viewers that invest in these characters

And yes as it happens Brad and Lauren have zero chemistry and are just not believable as a couple and although I think she is better off without the scumbag, Terese and Brad did have better chemistry together.
I guess it is tptb's way of telling the viewers to move on etc. If Terese can we should too. I agree it is silly and Beth is still bitter over it. Guess Terese knows she just has to move on with life. I guess when her divorce comes through she may get sad again.
