Hurray, Home and Away madness is back!  Today’s episode started with the ominous title “Six months ago”, and a shady figure having a great oul’ laugh at Alf on that documentary where he laments the hoons who’ve ruined his town.  Fast forward to the present day and there’s a strange new character at the diner chatting up Irene.  Strewth.  He seems to be a new love interest for Nicole (at least those are her intentions) but I bet he’s going to CHANGE THE BAY FOREVER.

That aside, there’s a “sexy” love triangle going on between Gina, John and Jill.  Very alliterative.  Jill wants John, John wants Gina but will make do with Jill, and Gina’s not sure if she wants John, but she definitely doesn’t want Jill to have him.  Romeo’s on Gina’s side, apparently she’s like a mother to him.  Phew.

Apparently John Palmer is drop dead gorgeous, according to Jill anyway.  But that whole hiding in the bedroom from Gina story is pretty boring.  No doubt there will be confusion and rows when Jill gets discovered.

Hugo nearly got his entire family killed but Rachel seems to be the only one who give a damn about it.  The rest of them aren’t too bothered at all despite the fact they were nearly drowned and shot by the guy with the shotgun and a confused accent.  Thankfully, Tony ambushed him with a rock from behind after Hugo ran him over.  Now he’s banged up in the YCPD station and is looking at some hard time plus 1000 questions from Angelo.

I don’t know how Angelo is going to fit in time for a relationship with Charlie.  He’s far too obsessed with Hugo to leave room for a girlfriend, even if she is one who likes doing her ironing in her silver underwear.
