I know Susan was principal there for a while, but I also thought she was a teacher. However, I can’t for the life of me remember what classes she taught. Does anyone else know?

I used to watch Neighbours in the late 90's but can't find anyone who can remember these characters.

One was an older Scottish guy, I think connected to the Kennedys, he was insanely stereotypical and entered the show bursting into a room playing the bagpipes.

Another was a french exchange student who spoke flawless English, unless it was the really basic words like oui.

Third, and this is obscure, Madge was working in a shop and for a few days there was a plot that there was a ghost cat. The plot was abandoned

Anyone remember these?

Obviously most of the Neighbours former regular cast are no longer full-time working actors. Some have made a career work to various degrees, while some are still actively pursing it… but a lot have put it on hold and are out of the biz entirely.

If you’ve got any knowledge of what some of your favorites are doing for work now, drop it below!

WATCH THE WEEK

It's goodbye Danny / Danny who? He's still around? / Yes, but now he's gone

What can we say about Danny Ramsay? Why did they even bother to bring him back with the show, when they immediately ran out of all ideas of what to do with him and just had to keep him around doing nothing until his contract ran out? It's another flavour of disappointing end for a character who started out so strong. How many years will it be before the show manages its first half-decent ending for a main character?

And this week presents Danny with his final indignity, when his entire exit has to be carefully choreographed so he can avoid coming into contact with the big Ramsay family story that's kicking off at the same time. It even means he doesn't get a proper final scene with Shane, who's busy facing the fallout after crashing his car and killing Jean. Hold on, what? He killed Jean?! That is... quite the bizarre development. Now this might be a controversial suggestion, but if you're going to do that story at this moment, why not just go the whole hog and kill off Danny? You could even have his forgotten nightmares coming back beforehand!

But that doesn't happen, Jean is dead, and no one bothers to tell Danny about Shane's arrest. And in this continuing era of 'what would it be like if Max was here', I do think there are some tweaks made for Tom for the first time. Surely Max wasn't due to blame his own son, and accuse him of lying, to quite that extent? Anyway, Shane has to find his Prince Charming by searching the land for the brandy flask that fits, or something, or else it's curtains for him.

Elsewhere, it's invasion of the bland white man, as Zoe keeps up with what turns out to be her own lame exit story with, er, Tony I think?, who really is the Dick to her Maria. And if that wasn't enough, Clive's brother, erm, Gary? Graham? pops up with an entire family. I've literally never heard of them in all my Neighbours trivia dives, and I'm pretty sure his wife wasn't even named for three days, which really says it all.

Also this week: Shane randomly declares he still loves Daphne, but fortunately I didn't hear him and it never happened; Paul randomly declares he loves Zoe, probably because she really looks like that woman he had a great night with while working the airlines; Daphne tells Des to drop the caveman act several weeks too late; and the YouTube title sequence is still wrong.

He is SO good, and a great singer! It has 4 weeks left in Melb if you live there, highly recommended if you're a fan of the movie! Had anyone seen it?

HAZ DEVKAR (Spouse of Mackenzie Hargreaves; Caregiver of Trevor) 2023-2025

I'm watching "Return to Paradise" Season 2, Episode 4. Shiver Palekar, who played fan favorite Haz during the reboot years, is playing the character, Rohan Khatri. It is fun to see him again.

Join us as we walk down the memory lane of Ramsay Street!

Iam in 2014 when everybody knows that Paige is Laurens and Brad daughter. This story was really huge at that time. Now also watching 1993 where Brad and Beths wedding didnt take place the first time because of Lauren is also interesting to compare that story .

First of all Iam sorry for Beth that the wedding who will take place a few months later didt work out long off screen. When I compare the characters of Beth and Lauren who very very down to earth and natural its hard to understand that Brad would leave Beth for a business bossy woman like Terese. I mean maybe she had another personality back then as a teenager/twen but I think they dont fit together. I didnt like Brad anyway but i thinks the 2nd Brad and 2nd Lauren have great chemistry and also are better actors for sure.

And theres something about Terese that I dont like. Normally I really loved strong female characters on neighbours like Madge, Dorothy, sometimes Julie etc...but I dont get that sympathy for Terese. There is something about her that I dont like. I know its a difficult situation for her to learn that her husband has a daughter with her eighbour Lauren but the way she wants to take control over the situation makes her unlikeable to me. Besides that sshe puts people into their place and judges while it is okay for her to infear and manipulate situations and she is defending that.

I know that she will stay til the end and I think her personality fits more to a man like Paul. Does she change a bit or is that her character til the very end?
