It wouldn't surprise me if they are licensing the episodes to places like VL and Cala, that they don't want to catch up to the episodes those places are screening (on YouTube) - it could be eating into their ability to sell to those markets if the episodes are available on YT. So I think once they have shown all of S5, they will then jump to continuing S10 at 4 episodes pace per day. Just a feeling - otherwise it doesn't make sense why they would jump to S10 like this. By the time 19 Sept rolls around, there will only be about 2-3 months left of S5 to upload to the YT channel, which would only take about half a month in real time to finish off.

But they were cold and dying, needed warmth! lolol She did own up to it but by then she'd already "died" twice!

Some might remember here a while back at the time that episode #956 had no background music. Well the mystery has been solved. There WAS background music for it. It's now available on YouTube if anyone wanted to grab it.

Thank you anyway! I'm positive the guy ended up in bigger roles. His face is incredibly familiar but I just can't place him.

I just watched episode 1066, and this guy delivered flowers to Macy, a small speaking role. I can't find any credits but for the life of me I feel like I have seen him before in a larger regular role, and more than likely a soap? Does anyone recognise him? thanks!

It's incredibly haphazard. They go back and forth between bad and better quality. And for a while there they only had the audio coming out of the left channel. We are grateful but they could do so much better on the official channel. Soon they will overtake what we are up to in 1993 in the vault. They will rip through a year's worth of episodes in 2 months at a release of 4 episodes a day, and they are currently up to late August 1990. So in about 6 months from now, YouTube will catch up to what we have for August 1993 in the Vault.

No, it's not you, I checked with Marco on twitter and you are 2 different people.

You're not @marco_poll_o on Twitter, are you?

Thank you so much! Please don't forget the end of 1554? What a golden time!

Incredible uploads there Angels! Thank you so much. One day I will find the time to watch them all! 😂

I have this one saved to a Note on my computer and it takes me straight there: https://bit.ly/3kMIjRN

Thank you, it needs to be said.

I thought you weren’t going to complain about size from an earlier post? Sorry, no February 2001 is such a bad month for missing episodes.

I just hope they don't forget to fill in the "gaps", the missing episodes that exist in the seasons (18? onwards) that they have already uploaded. It's not impossible they "re-release" season 18 onwards like they have certain seasons, and so the missing ones crop up that way... time will tell!

So very much appreciated, and the quality is awesome! 🙏🥰

Speaking of Hunter, when Taylor "died" the first time, in the plane crash, had Hunter left the show, or was it just a temporary fakeout? She was gone for three whole months. Had she left, and then been put on cast again three months later, or was she just given a three month break to do something else knowing she'd be back? Does anyone know the facts?

I'm sure all of us are grateful to the Angels for what has been able to be provided thus far. Thank you thank you thank you! In "good" news, albeit it will take some time, but I did some rough calculations with the official channel on YouTube putting three new classic episodes up per calendar day (21 per week) and VL putting up 2 per weekday (10 per week), that sometime in late December 2023, the official channel on YouTube will OVERTAKE VL's episodes (that is, the episode number VL will be up to in December 2023 - around #2460) - so if you have patience we will get to 1993 and have the show ON TAP, at three episodes per calendar day on the official YouTube channel!!! In good quality, and without graphics or subtitles - plus some bonus sponsors after the opening credits! Personally, I'm up to #945 in my re-watch, and can only fit in an episode per day, so the official channel on YT will catch up to me in late October this year - meaning I can switch to watching those, and if their promise to upload all the seasons is kept, then I need never run out of "new" classic episodes to watch. And I will have to think hard about whether I want to up my viewing to 3 a day at that point! Despite that, I'm hopeful that someone can help out those who are presently up to date in the meantime x

Grateful to you all!!! Thank you!

I always wondered why he needed to be recast - was it something he did? - or they decided they needed "singing Thorne" and Norcross couldn't sing (that's what I assumed)?

Clayton was the perfect Ken Doll. Just beautiful. I'd love him back if he was still in the acting gig.

🙏 You are Heaven Sent! 🙏

271 and 283 have been replaced on YouTube, with 30 minute versions with black chunks for commercial placeholders. Better than the mess that was uploaded originally. They weren't deliberate cuts, just faulty uploads. If you dragged the timer along the bottom for the original uploads, you could see that the full episodes were there, you just couldn't watch them. You can't check that now they've been replaced, but that was the case, just faulty uploads, no deliberate cutting. People complained in the comments for these episodes, so thankfully TPTB took notice and replaced.

TPTB have said they plan to upload them all, which is wonderful news! Especially because it won't take them long to overtake VL. The only bummer is that most of the YT uploads are inferior quality to the ones in the Vault, however don't carry the Dutch subtitles. The YT versions also are generally in full from what I can see, whilst Amy's versions would often have 5 seconds missing at the start, music muted for copyright, and the end credits regularly altered/cut, possibly to bypass YT copyright. Of course, depending on what the Angels were able to rip in terms of quality, there can be a lot of variance in the quality of the uploads since Amy stopped at 750. So we probably need to question whether we would rather maintain better quality episodes in the Vault, or inferior quality but at least complete (and without banners and subtitles)? It would free up some space (as long as you got rid of the originals) as the YT episodes are much, much smaller file sizes. Food for thought!!

I'm watching around 880 and the Ben Maclaine actor has been added and removed randomly. It's very noticeable as he is the first actor listed. That's just an example of the hiccups at times. Joanna Johnson was left for a while in the closing credits after Caroline died, whilst her image was removed immediately after she died in the opening titles. Other times, they have used the actor as the character eg Scott Clifton played by Liam Spencer. At the moment, Kimberlin Brown is listed BEFORE Darin Brooks, and has been since she returned. Fire the interns!!!

The show has always been sloppy at removing cast from the end and start credits. Look how long it took for a Jack Wagner, Lesley Anne Down to be removed - and Hunter Tylo more recently.
