Spin off series
I have been of the opinion for some time that Home and Away should develop a number of spin off series. Here are a few ideas on what they might be.
“Justice Bellingham PI” – Morag interferes and meddles in all manner of legal shenaningans. She never fails to uncover those who are trying to pull an illegal fast one.
“The bear essentials” – By day Vinnie Patterson journeys around children’s parties dressed as a bear. By night he goes out to the bush and leads a sleuth of bears in a never-ending quest for honey.
“Blunderers in blue” – Jack and Fitzy investigate local crime but invariably make a mess of it. Jack ignores every rule in the book and discusses his cases openly in the diner or the surf club. They somehow catch their suspects and Jack gets a dressing down from the Sarge who says that he’s in the last chance saloon. “Fitzy and Jack: pathetic” could be an alternative title.
“Auld ones” – Colleen Smart and Madge Wilkins present a lifestyles magazine show. Cooking tips, fashion advise on mad outfits and any gossip doing the rounds is dispensed with gusto.

Brilliant, I can just see Morag on her bike now, a la Angela Lansbury.
Maybe her show and Jack’s can do a crossover double episode involving Vinnie and honey theft.

Great idea. We should start writing the script now. It’ll be like that episode of the A-team that had Boy George in it.

This is an amazing idea. I would love to see a detective show featuring Morag. What about just Morag P.I.? and what about Coleen appearing as her bumbling associate, who inadvertently helps her solve the crime. Maybe HBO could make it?

I would imagine that they’ll be on the phone to us about making it any minute now.
