About time. I don't think H & A has touched anything gay since that massive Charlie lesbian drama like a decade ago.

i'm still bitter over what happened with charlie and joey!



eta: i just looked at h&a's list of current cast members and they're really struggling to hold on to any younger ppl long term, aren't they

for all the crap that Neighbours gets, at least they actually and have a bit of diversity. H&A is soooo white and stale.



I miss the H&A days with ugly Duncan when he drove the car off the cliff with Jade(?) in the car and Seb/Zeb on the bonnet

Lmaooo. I remember that, I started properly watching like a year before Noah was killed off, I remember being so fucking upset. I gave up after Sally left though, because the cast is stale, the writing is bad and it's so boring.



Do you remember when people lost their minds when Leah and family was added because she was Greek? I do.

H&A are patting themselves on the back about 'keeping up with the times' and desperately grabbing at some diversity points by bringing in a gay teen character...for a six week long guest stint.



Looks like he's going to be closeted and struggle with his sexuality/get outed and then finally learn to accept himself before disappearing off to whence he came. You know, groundbreaking stuff if we were living in the 90's.

Can’t wait to read all the angry Facebook comments about how it’s a “family show”, even though everyone is always having affairs with everyone else, marrying 47 times (looking at you, Paul), almost bonking their sibling, etc. etc.

ARE YOU REALLY SURPRISED THO. Australian television is notorious for having little to no diversity.

hdu! H&A are bringing in a non-white gay teen, that's worth double the diversity points!

That's nice! Bless them for giving David a haircut.



I watch Home and Away, although they never show the Friday episodes on youtube so I miss stuff and it's like... sighhh. And then there are long stints where nobody even posts stuff on youtube because Seven cracks down on it.

sometimes you have to sift through a bit or search cos other random programs will appear in the most recent uploads, but they tend to post them quickly after they air they don't have friday episodes, but i'm from the UK (we're really behind on eps) and watch on dailymotion here: https://www.dailymotion.com/homenaway sometimes you have to sift through a bit or search cos other random programs will appear in the most recent uploads, but they tend to post them quickly after they air

My fave daytime queer couples were Luke and Noah from A the World Turns and John Paul McQueen and Father Kieron from Hollyoaks. Craig Dean was a whiny little bitch and Kieron was way sexier. I was so pissed when JP left with Craig after Kieron was murdered. Thank God he and Craig didn't last. lol



As for Luke and Noah...well they were my first daytime queer couple so I'll always have a soft spot for them.

And I know Neighbours is a nightime soap but the longest running serial soaps in the US are on daytime TV. lol

who turned out to be Neighbours veteran Paul Robinson



Lmao of course it was Paul Robinson. He's probably fathered half of Ramsay Street by this point.

I mean, David just came out and Aaron is his first boyfriend, but alright, you do you I guess. I wish they'd give Elly something to do except cry about her boyfriends all the time. In fact all the young women on this show seem to only have storylines revolving around men.

same. pretty sure they're gonna have elly get back with mark though. i wish they'd give piper something to do as well. i used to really like her but this whole obsessing/crying over tyler is so OTT.

I've also noticed sometimes people randomly call her Ally, and it's so annoying. Oh my god, yes. Piper really irritates her. Like the whole melt down she had over that chair was so extra.
