Thanks. Crazy that only has 59 views. Hopefully it will get more now.

I thought the same thing when I found it. I hope it reaches more people.

All the episodes I have are already on YouTube with the exception of October-Dec 1991 which the person who is uploading that year is still uploading it.  I uploaded the episode you asked for and that's ALL I can do.

If I have time I may add in the missing 1991 episodes on YouTube, but I have to find the time, which I don't have right now. I'm sorry. I barely have free time to watch my soaps. 

 

Do you have Fiona Hutchinson’s last episode from 1991?

Don't know. Have no idea which date that is. I've started watching the show from mid October 1991 and that's when this character has already been off. I don't remember seeing her in any episodes, only hearing about her and that she was in prison. Her last episode should be on YouTube though. I just don't know that date.

P.S if it's not on YouTube, tell me a date and I can upload it on Vimeo. @cassadine1991

I'm entering March 1992! Up to March 3rd to be exact. 🐍

So much great stuff is happening. The show is firing on all cylinders. When I started watching (October 1991)... it was good... but now... it's just spectacular. Even since Megan died... it's like the show is finally DONE with all the deaths and doom and gloom for a moment and everything is moving ahead to exciting new horizons. 

So what is happening right now?

 Alex Olanov is blackmailing Carlo into marrying her and giving her control of his crime dynasty. She is holding the incriminating tapes over his head while also seducing him. Tonja Walker is so addicting to watch. A perfect, I mean... perfect soap opera villain. 

 Leanne and Kevin got married by a priest who could barely remember his own name... and poor Victoria was there to witness the entire fiasco. Minutes before... she found out from Joey...(you can always count on little brother to tell your secrets) that Leanne is indeed pregnant. 🤪 Victoria swallowed her motherly instincts and pride for a day, so that she can "accept" Leanne into the family. Not before asking her plain and direct - Are you sure Kevin IS the daddy? Leanne lied through her teeth! I think all HELL will break lose when that letter revealing it may not be Kevin's child... resurfaces.

Asa and Renee's relationship suffered after Asa blamed Renee for always choosing other people's sides against him... In the end of the scene... he very cruelly told her... to "adopt some child". It was so sadistic and devastating to say this to a woman... who I don't recall has children of her own. Renee was left crying alone in his cabinet. It was quite disgusting for him to do this to her. 

 In Dorian Lord's apartment there was a sinister shadow moving from room to room - the shadow of doubt! - it's been couple of days since Dorian found that bizarre, almost in code... message... "beginning of an article" about a "Publishing Queen" that will soon be in ruins - her whole life destroyed. She consulted with Cassie... about who may be behind this message. Later in the evening the Publishing Queen met her match (she still doesn't know it) when confronting Blair about writing that message on her laptop. Blair skillfully managed to get out of that situation by yet another lie - Yes, she wrote that message... but it was about VICTORIA! Not you, Dorian, of course... not you! Did Dorian buy it? Did her hatred towards Victoria manage to blur her natural instincts... I think so. The scene was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Blair then proceeded to put on Dorian's clothes again... and this time she even went into her bed. It's like watching a soap opera version of "The Favourite".

Overall - 10/10!!!!!!!!!

I am watching... with bated breath... every-single-episode. This show is an absolute masterpiece. Together with All My Children, they have become my favorite classic soaps. I just love, love, love them both.

Clip of the day - Dorian confronts Blair.

R.I.P. Jack Betts (Dr. Ivan Kipling, 1979-1985). 

He appeared in a number of soaps but I think Kipling was probably the most memorable character.

The article mentions that he was friend and frequent escort of Doris Roberts for decades.

I had no idea just how many soaps he was in.

I can't say I was ever into the Kipling stories (I don't think they were the best fit for the show) but I should watch more closely sometime. Betts was a very striking presence. He was born for Dark Shadows, even if he was never on Dark Shadows.

Up to March 9th 1992 🐍  I spend till 04-00 in the morning binge-watching. I'm functioning on 5 hours of sleep thanks to OLTL.

"A drunk mind speaks a sober heart."

  Alex and Carlo got married in a highly comedic setting - Alex was wearing a black dress and the person who got them married (the mayor) ended the ceremony with "Whatever!". Alex then proceeded to surprise Carlo with a black briefcase full of sex toys! Just when it was getting veeeeery hot...  the cute mustache district attorney and his people... interrupted the sexcapade with a search warrant. Alex invited them in like they were part of the festivities.

  Tina is showing us a different side of her personality that I hadn't seen so far... gone are the days of the boring housewife constantly corrected by her controlling husband (Cord) - she is becoming a free woman with a mind of her own, taste for TROUBLE and scamming people. That 1 dollar land - well... she decided to keep it and go SOLO without Max and Luna's participation. Even the cat Cordero that has been eating her lunch couldn't change her mind. It's the emancipation of TINA. I say - Go, girl.

  Now let's get into the most interesting (to me) storyline - Blair's plan to destroy Dorian... went 1 step further when Blair and Dorian got "drunk" together. As in - Blair "acted" like she is drinking... while Dorian inhaled the entire bottle. In the end Dorian became very "open" and started telling Blair stuff from her past. Not enough to destroy her yet, but Blair now has a lead - Victor Lord's mysterious death... so many years ago.  

  Ah and I shouldn't forget - Sarah is now a full blown drug addict... she left town and found herself a dealer. Bo, of course, is searching for her... even after Cassie asked him to stop engaging with Sarah. Ugh.

  Overall - 10 out of freaking 10! This show is unstoppable. You miss 1 minute and you miss soooo much! I don't fast-forward or skip anything. 

  Clip of the day - Dorian slipping up... in front of her worst enemy.

I have it. Give me some time and I'll upload it and tag you in this topic. I will put it on Vimeo because YouTube does not allow me to upload longer than 15 minutes videos.

@cassadine1991 - correction, I'm sorry, I just checked and the episode I have named March 27th 1991 is actually the one that is uploaded on youtube as "April 1st".  Same episode. I wanted to double check and be sure that I have these missing ones, but they are the same. My 27, 28 and 29 are uploaded already as April 1,2 and 3rd on youtube by another user. So they are missing from my collection too.

I'll recheck my March and April episodes, there may be misdated episode somewhere, it has happened before. But thank you for sharing this clip, worst case scenario I'll add it as a clip for my missing March 27-29 episodes.
