No problem! I wish we could have seen more of Viki's extended family. I probably would have enjoyed her aunt Gwendolyn.

Viki saw him, though, and she assessed that he was. Of course, as we know by now, physical resemblance alone means nothing in these situations, and they could explain it away by saying he underwent surgery to look like Victor.

I have had the same thoughts over the years. I have come to beleive Victor had a twin brother that maybe he kept in the attic (hey if Viki can keep both Ben and Todd there for long periods of time, Victor could have kept his brother there.) My storyline would be Viki going into an unknown room of the house that is rarely used and finds a birth cetificate hidden in the back of a closet that confirmed Victor had a twin. Viki then realizes it was the twin who sexually abused her for years. He was the one sneaking up to her bedroom and doing what he did. Yes Victor liked young girls and built the secret room but it was his twin who abused Viki. of course Viki was only seven when he started doing it so she beleived it was her father since she knew nothing of him having a twin and she split into the alters because of it. maybe Victor found out about what happend and vanished his brother to that farm house before it could be revealed. Meaning it was the brother who wanted to cut out Jessica's or Natalie's heart to give to him. and he's the one who died in 2003.

Perhaps Dorian knew but hasn't told Viki because she's still afraid of Jean Randolph. Maybe her saying "if it was Victor" meant that she was trying to feel Viki out on if she knew anything of the brother. Perhaps she was going to tell Viki the truth before Nigel came into the room and then she decided to just let it be since Viki flew to Texas later that day and Dorian didn't hear from her for months.

That means Viki would have to come to the realization that her alter Tori killed Victor for something he didn't do. and he was really the loving father she always beleived he was until she found out about the abuse. he wasn't perfect. He did have his eye for the young ladies like Irene Manning and he did father Tony (from someone else), Tina, Todd and Victor Junior but that was maybe his biggest faults. but he wasn't a monster, he was just a flawed man who kept trying to keep control of his image and his private sexual urges (like Bill Clinton!)

Max Holden is 55! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JAMES DEPAIVA!

This photo seems so modern every time I look at it, which is odd, since Erika usually reminds me more of a very refined, stately era, like she should be on Downton Abbey (and then I'd actually watch Downton Abbey).

Thank you very much for the pictures AdelaideCate007....I love that period and all these great pictures!!!!! Thankssss

Lots of OLTL people at Jerry ver Dorn's charity bowling event.

I beleive Jerry's been doing that for a lot of years now. I mean since he was on Guiding Light. It was nice to see some old Guiding Light people come to it. I still remember when Blake and Ross were "Bloss", a very popular couple.

Yes, he has. I used to see photos of it in soap magazines in the 90s. I'm glad it's still going on, and that some of the OLTL people showed up too.

Do you think that if they kept Vinnie Wolek on the show in 1985, they would have played the Niki Smith /Harry O'Neil story. She didn't even mention Vinnie when she was with Harry. but Vinniy was a very big part of her life in the late 1960's.

I don't think Vinnie would have fallen for her again, as he would have known her.

She mentioned that she had only loved Harry O'Neil.

yes in these 1985 clips it seems that way but Niki ran off with Vinnie Wolek when Viki was going to marry Joe in 1969. She wanted to be with Vinnie until he wanted marriage from her. that's how they got Viki back out. Actually Viki told this story to Jessica right before she married Antonio because Jessica was afraid tess could come out during the wedding and run off with Nash, just like Niki did to Viki.
