Pretty good article on changing times in France. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/apr/22/france-elections-2017-le-pen-fillon-macron

He left with his BFF Lucy Robinson after they agreed to have a child together.

For some reason it's listed as age verification.

Debbi Morgan and Darnell Williams PSA about 20 minutes in.

Margaret Reed put up a video with some of her early material as Shannon - I'm not sure if it's still around.

These days I mostly have a lot of scans, but I'd be happy to start uploading more of the scans I have from that era, if you want to see them.

This is Aaron's first scene. And his relationship with Nate (there are a lot of scenes missing I assume) Aaron is now with David. There was another gay character on the show before Aaron named Chris.

Thanks. How did the story play out onscreen? I wonder if they changed any of it when it was obvious Harney wasn't going to catch on. Didn't Willis become a horror to some other woman (was it Angie Perrini)? I wonder if that story was ever intended for Alice.

Neighbours will keep you happy in that department. Their main gay character at present used to be a stripper, although this was not Chippendales stripping, obviously. I've watched off and on in different periods. I'm aware the show has often been a bit of a softer soap and that's preferable to too much shock and gore. It's just some of the current stories are choosing to tackle some difficult subjects, and the handling of them...like the Kim/Paul mess...doesn't really suit the tone.

I wasn't sure if it had been around before - it probably has a few times over, but I wasn't sure if her full statement had ever been out there. I thought you might like it. Was she talking about the story with Ray and his mother?

@safe - sorry if you already have this one. December 1975 Daytime TV

I just think some of the characters are a bit empty and the show has a bit of a clinical, empty tone to it. There are some gritty characters, like Sonya and Steph and Susan (lots of S's there), but the younger set - people like Aaron, David, Leo, Amy, etc. seem quite bland.

@Vee here is the Everett McGill photo. Daytime TV December 1975. My editing tools have gone haywire so I couldn't crop more.

I know you love to rag on promos...the Neighbours promos these days have the most OTT nature possible. I have to say the current show isn't really to my taste entirely but it does have some good moments.

There are some surgery photos at the start of this.

There are a number of episodes on Dailymotion if you ever want to just watch a random one.

It's odd as Tori was such a weak, fragile character - I don't remember seeing any Tori scene where she wasn't a neurotic mess. Did they see Mary that way? If nothing else it makes you appreciate the grit HJK brought to Mary that may not have been there on the page.

I'm surprised they thought anyone would be a fan of Mason/Tori. That character was a dull mess. Was she supposed to be another Mary replacement? Was it you or someone else who said that Katrina was also supposed to be a Mary replacement? I watched a Mason/Katrina scene a month or two back and she was also a very odd character.

Sad to hear that. She was a beautiful lady.

I knew Frank Beaty did some stuff after his breakdown/GL but I'd never seen any of it. (apparently he tweeted once in early 2015 - his profile picture suggested he'd aged pretty well...no idea whether it was real of course)

Thanks.

Nice shots (although he seems awkward with that briefcase).
