Y&R: Lorie said she thought she was pregnant. She and Brad slept together ? I always assumed she tried to seduce him, but was unsuccessful. We saw the brief glimpse from Janice Lynde's youtube reel of the young orderly trying to make love to Leslie and being put in a straight jacket.  The Gwen Sherman story sounds Zzzzzzz.

It's weird reading about a pre-Monty spy storyline on GH. It does feel very Dobson-ish though.

 

Also good to see what Steve Hardy was getting up to. Those yearly summaries they used to have on Abc.com always seemed to suggest that all Steve did in the early - mid 70s was pining after Audrey.

All good everyone. Happy to share @FrenchFan Yes I think we are both determined to track them down, so hopefully soon we will have them all.

 

Bryna's recap of Y&R seems to confirm Bruce and Jen were together in the summer of 73 and that Gwen and Jill had a storyline previously as well. From what I read Gwen came into the salon all fabulous and beautiful, Jill was in awe. Gwen told Jill she had a great job as an escort. Jill mistakes this as simply a woman who escorts men around town as their dates and makes plans to sign on, until she visits Gwen's workplace and realises it is a brothel. Not sure if those details are 100% correct, so if anyone knows more, would be good to find out.

 

This happened again (sort of) in 1976. Jill takes a job at a hotel as a manicurist and is offered the chance to prostitute herself for the male clients at the hotel, but Snapper realises what Jill has gotten herself into and goes to stop her. Jill is almost ready to go through with it but Snapper gets through to her. She then took a job at the Golden Comb with Derek Thurston in the aborted Shampoo-esque story that got dumped and pushed back to 1977 when they finally cast Joe LaDue
