How corny can Neighbours get,Paul Robinson doing a burglary with one leg ,how the hell did he get up on the platform for a start,the other day in the shop every one wearing pies on their heads

Neighbours is meant to be like that, its always like a comedy at times.

The pie hats were just a small comedy piece

As for Pauls leg- I was wondering the same thing about how he managed to get in to the house. They do seem to forget about him only having one proper leg at times

It was like Liliana out of hospital just a couple of days after having a partial liver transplant

It's better than being really depressing and miserable like Eastenders and other soaps are. Atleast when you watch Neighbours it is garuanteed to make you smile.

Neighbours is a feel good soap, live with it. You've complained about how bad it was once before. If you don't like it, why watch it and then come on here to moan about it some more?

The only reason I have to watch it now is that I have a sick wife who at the moment cant be left on her own and I stay with her when she watches it

So why pay attention to it? You don't have to.

Neighbours probably made her sick.

Neighbours is so corny, everybody knows burglars don't dress in black. The Neighbours producers must have learnt all they know from comics.

Hiding in the cupboard,how corny is that

Why don't you both shut it?! If you don't like it, don't watch it and don't yap on about it, talking crap in the process. If you don't have something nice to say, don't say it at all unless you can justify your argument - you can't so stop talking. Children

I dont like it but I have to watch it now and then because for my sins Harold looks like me and Lou looks like my brother and we get fed up with people asking for our Autographs (true) how can you talk crap about crap and as for calling us children ,get a life

The burglary was a joke. The alarm gives you enough time to disable the backup battery before going off ? And where did the scaffoling come from ?

And the fat woman made the mean business man fall in love with her instantly by pulling her top's zipper down half an inch. What a load of crap !

Uncle fester have a look at these Neighbours summaries, they're hilarious :

Neighbours has it's own sweet style. Everyone knows what it is, and like it or doesn't.

Theres nothing else quite like it.

Besides if you want to start picking on plot problems, I'm very sure there are thousands and thousands of them in our 'bigger' UK soaps.

LOL!

I've just started getting into Neighbours again, after over 7 years, and it's just as ridiculous as before, but it's perfectly watchable teatime nonsense

Spreading the word then Steph? Whos replied yet?

Im actually quite shocked with Neighbours with this plane crash coming where they its just a pity

I love that when they do a burglary Paul and Izzy dress as Misson Impossible as Possible.

Love Neighbours, always makes me smile.

Makes you smie,its supposed to be seri arse

LMAO brilliant!

“The Erotic Adventures of Harold and Madge,” “Lou Carpenter: A Sex Offender In Their Midst” and “Dr Karl Kennedy’s Liver Blending Diet.”

Oh come on. Anyone can tell from the opening titles...yeah it's a soap but it's light hearted and I know that. it's why i watch because I don't particuarly want to watch gripping drama at 5.35pm on a weeknight.

Because of the way it is, it actually makes me like it more than other soaps such as Eastenders.

I cant comment on Neighbours alot, as i dont watch it. It does seem a bit ''Happy'' all the time however it was brilliant when the cafe went on fire earlier this year - who set it alight as i didn't watch?

It wasn't just the cafe, it was the complex. Well Paul Robinson turned up out of the blue. That should clue you in! - Steph
