Turns out doctor-loving, riding-while-dying Kim Hyde aka Thor has an equally handsome and successful film-star brother.

I expect Home and Away: The Movie any day now.

Selina arrived in the bay with a bad attitude and a bad mother. She ditched them both and changed her ways to become a shining light of goodness by the time she left. She moved in with Irene and liked it so much that she even adopted her name.

Selina met a boy called Jesse. He was a bit of a bad boy but that wasn’t a problem for Selina. Selina was a great one for leading fellas up the stairs by the hand in Irene’s house which usually meant that they were about to take it to the next level. That happened quite a few times. She pioneered that move but many others have taken up that torch since then, including Gypsy, Martha and Nicole.

As well as dating Jessie, she also went out with Jack Wilson. Jack, like Selina, was a bit of a tearaway but had a good heart, don’t they all? Selina also had a fling with Damian, Irene’s son, which led to a teen pregnancy. She miscarried in the school which was pretty traumatic event for her.

She had many advertures during her time in the bay, which included joining a cult led by Saul. Saul had a powerful effect on Selina and became a bit obsessed with her. She overcame his brainwashing after her friends intervened but that wasn’t enough for Saul and he kidnapped her not once, not twice but three times. Persistance sometimes pays off but not in this case, he got shot to bits by the cops.

Selina had a thing for Stephen Matheson, one of the original cast members who made a return as an adult. This would have been fine except for the fact that he was Selina’s teacher. The broke off their illicit affair and he left town but she still harboured feelings for him when she was going out with Jesse. When she bumped into Stevo again, she couldn’t deny her feelings for him. They agreed to get married and managed to go through with it at the second attempt, the first was a non-starter what with all the kidnapping and shooting. The course of true love never did run smooth.

It’s been on Facebook, it’s been on Twitter and now here is the blog announcement that Ms. Gypsy Nash is returning to Summer Bay!  Once the town’s biggest wagon, then a roadside ma, who knows what scandal she’ll bring with her this time.   I bet she makes a beeline for Dr. Sid.

Ah, he sounds like a grand chap.

Not satisfied with heading off to the city with Kit and baby Archie, Kim Hyde has discovered within himself great Norse powers. Turns out he was Thor, god of thunder,  all along! Does that mean Barry is Odin?

Guess who directed Friday’s episode?  None other than Danny Raco, aka Alex Poulos.  Apparently he’s been directing on the show since he returned in 2007.  Fair play Danny.

Check this out; who do you think wears the beard best? This was sent to homeandawayireland HQ by the reader known only as Saul.

Check this out.  The very very first episode of Home and Away, as sent to us by one Donal O’Malley.  Fisher was a bit evil, eh, suggesting lying in order to land Bobby in prison?

Once we knew him as Kim Hyde but now you will have to refer to him as Thor. Between this and the Star Trek film last year, Chris Hemsworth is doing pretty well for himself.  You can expect Kenneth Branagh’s film to hit your screens sometime in the new year.

Commenter Belle pointed out that the Fashion on the Field lady was very like Alf’s erstwhile paramour, Bridget. They are suspiciously alike. What do you think?

I suppose I could have looked at the credits to find out.
