Case closed

That Robert Robertson is one smart cookie. He knew that Charlie wasn’t the killer but he arrested her anyway to force Ross to confess. His plan worked like a dream. I suppose it helped that all of his suspects were considerably stupider than him.
So now that his job is complete with a confession in hand, Robert has bid good day to the bay. His brief liason with Leah went nowhere much but at least it meant that she had a slightly more interesting storyline than her usual one of a busy lunchtime order in the Diner. One thing he has left us with is a new nickname for Morag. Battleship Potemkin will stay with us forever.

Spont me

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Ruby’s stalking her rapist da on cool new networking site Spont Me.  What is Spont?  Is that an Aussie term or something?  It sounds rude.  Cue loads of anguished faces from Charlie when she finds out!

Morag has moved back in with Aden after Ross shipped himself off to a nursing home.  Poor oul’ Ross, he was sound.  Morag’s ruling the roost already though, she’ll have Aden forgetting his dead wife in no time.

Nicole tried to crack on to Dr. Sid (who has a lovely house), but he was having none of it.  That’ll soon change.  A bit more pouting and I’d say she’ll have him.

P.S. Xavier described himself as a “total knob” today.  Where did you learn that blue language, Xave?

OK Rachel has lost it

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

Rachel is a pain in the hoop. You’d think she’d be delighted to have the negligence case sorted, but no, she just looked annoyed that she had nothing to moan about. Then Tony brought Harry to the diner to introduce him to Auntie Colleen, and Rachel nearly lost her reason. She’d want to watch herself or topless Tony (did you see that?) will be packing Harry up for good.

Martha is certainly acting like a happy spa these days. Better that than weepy and confused I suppose.

Those were crafty tactics by Morag, using Ross’s Alzheimer’s to try to get to the bottom of the baby mystery. But Charlie had a trick up her sleeve as well, saying her baby had died when in fact she was sitting opposite with a gaping mouth that would catch all the flies in Oz.  I suppose it’s her cop training that allows her to think so quickly, but Jack would never have thought of that.

Poor Charlie all the same, it looks like her journey to the next level wasn’t as consensual as most.

He used to bring me roses…

Prison isn’t treating Irene well; she seems to have lost the plot altogether.  Her voice is shaky, her eyes are wide, and she’s looking generally shook (although her hair isn’t too bad).  She’s been dubbed a legend for offing her fella, and already been offered some grog.  I’d say she’ll be following that particular line of inquiry fairly soon…

Morag must have something against Irene.  She was very gung-ho when Aden was in trouble with the law.  Sure Ross wouldn’t even know she was gone.

Poor Ross

Monday, November 24th, 2008

Poor oul’ Ross.  Do you reckon he’s going to leave the Bay out of frustration?  They’re all fussing around him like Mrs. Doyle.  Or maybe Charlie’s ridiculously bad acting will get to him.

Belle doesn’t know what she wants; maybe she’s after a (René) menage a trois with Aden and Angelo.  She’d want to buck her ideas up, girlie.

Morag returns

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008

Ah poor oul Morag; only back from her honeymoon and it turns out that Ross is losing his marbles.  She’s back on form with the tongue-lashings though.  She seems to have given up the black lipstick; maybe that was to attract the fellas, and now she’s married she doesn’t need it.

If that Bridget wan starts going after Alf, I’m going to go nuts.

I wonder if Martha is going to lose her hair; it was lovely in that episode.

True that

“Men focus, women fuss. It’s the nature of things” according to Ross when Irene asked him how he had time for a coffee on the morning of his wedding.
