We have heaps of fans tuning in from overseas and even though these countries are behind Australia in the storylines, they still love the site so we thought we'd start an overseas page!

So O/S fans, send your thoughts or comments to homeandaway@seven.com.au with 'Overseas calls' in the subject field and we'll do our best to post them here. Don't forget, you too can discuss what's happening in Summer Bay on our yahoo7 message board.

Jessica: Ireland - Just wanted to wish all cast and crew a very happy christmas and a great new year !!! i have been a fan years and years the characters i like most are Belle and Aden, I watch it every week day. todd you're hot hot!!! ok so enjoy x mas and take care!!

Juliane: Norway - I Absolutely love Home and Away! In Norway, we are exactly 2 years behind Australia. The season final 2006 is on friday, here in Norway.It`s really sad that we are 2 years behind Australia :( I watch the Australian episodes of H&A on youtube every day(when it`s not holiday,of course)and i absolutely love the cliffhanger!! I can`t wait until H&A is back next year! In the meantime,Merry Christmas to all of you ;) I have just read that a own Home and Away Magazine is coming out next year. That is so great! :D I really hope the magazine will be sold in Norway.

Marie: I am from the UK (near London) and just wanted to say how much I love Home and Away. I have been watching it since I was a little girl. I always come on the website and see little previews of what is to come on our screens soon and love it. I have just seen that someone is going to die and it all looks very exciting all round so I am really really looking forward to that. If it is Jack though, I feel really sorry for Martha. PS - I think Aden (Todd Lasance) is absolutely gorgeous!!!, but don't tell my fiance that!!!

Tanya watching from London: Hi again. OMG. Melody's going crazy. She should leave Geoff and Nicole alone. Their gd together. I missed so much because I havn't been on the website for ages but I am now since today I was watching reruns of old episodes of Home and Away. I still can't believe how all the hot guys have left Home and Away. Like Drew, Rocco, Lucas, Kim, Charlie ( the really hot phyco guy) oh and did I say Drew. Whos next? Jack. But if Jack did leave I'd be sad. Lol. But at least that new guy Xavier is kinda cute. Me and my friend at school where talking about Rocco and how cool it would be if he wasn't dead. But he was in the witness protection programme living in Tasmania. But when an old member of his brother spots him, he's on the run and comes back to summer bay looking for Sally thinking his brother is still in prison. Juicy or what? And everything is getting so good these days. GO HOME AND AWAY!

Cedar: (US) I watch Home and Away every night, on You tube of course! But I love the storylines, and Jai and Annie together, Belle and Aden together, and Geoff and Nicole together! I can't cope without Home and Away, it's the best show ever on TV!! I can't believe Jack got shot and I hope he doesn't die.

Sarah: (UK) Hi i would like to congratulate the writers, jodi gordon and paul o'brien for their fantastic potrayal of the breast cancer story line i am a nurse i now work in a+e environment but previously worked on ward which specialised on breast cancer. jodi has mirror imaged the fears and stages that these women go through. i was particularly amazed at how well they handled the diagnostic period was these woman barely have time to have a personal thought between finding lump and facing surgery. also paul should be proud as he has played the husband role brilliantly woman in this position often push people closest to them away and they feel helpless. jodi and paul should be very proud they have paid a massive tribute to women and their families in this situation and it is more humbling when i think jodi has personally suffered such a similar situation. jodi and pauls on screen chemistry only emphasises the storyline and i thank them for highlighting the emotions of this situation.

Sally: I am a 67 year old grandmother and a very staunch follower of 'Home & Away'. I have watched this series for a number of years although we are a bit behind here in South Africa! Have to have my daily dose even on holiday! Anyway, I was in Australia earlier this year visiting relatives in Byron Bay & Sydney. Whilst in Sydney I was taken to the film site in Palm Beach. Unfortunately for me the cast was not there that day but I was able to experience the set first hand which makes it even more fun for me!!! What a beautiful beach you have there.

Sky 16 (UK) - WAAAAAAAZZZZUP!!!!!!! i would just like to say todd is a hotty with a body, love him and love his storyline! the steamy scenes are just HOT! lovin the aden and belle relationship, they are the ultimate couple. i was watching the interview with jess and todd, both seem totally relaxed and down to earth people with great chemistry, there acting is intence and i would just like to give credit to them both and to the rest of the cast. TOTALLY AWSOME!!!! anyways home and away rox the sox, so much better than the depressing soaps in britain, keep up the amazing work! THANX!

Sun: Belgium - I started watching home and away when I was very little, given I was born in 1980. My grandmother used to watch it and I watched with her. So we can say that I am present since the early start. Now I do have to say that I absolutely love the Aden-Belle love story. For me definitely a reason to scotch myself to the tv everyday. I truly hope they may continue as a couple and live happily ever after. Cause one of the reasons that I love to watch, is that not everything is negative in your Summerbay. Good things actually do happen and stay good. And that is what makes you different from all the other series. So keep up the good work and we'll keep watching.

Clara: hey i just want to say i love the show heaps!! im from ireland and its really popular here i got all my friends hooked haha!! i just wanted to say i love geoff and nicole together they are so different it matches perfectly (gicole) ha! oh and obviously adelle everyone loves them and i hope they get back together officially!! todd and jess's interview was great i hope they do another one soon!

Sally: Just wanted to say that the show is getting better and better. I've been a fan of the show for god knows how many years and I've always enjoyed the story lines and the new charactors. I do also watch Neighbours, which I do addmit, first thought was better than Home and Away, how wrong I was though. I'm a 37 year old single mum from England and as soon as I come in from work, channel 5 has to go on. I watch the show religously, I even watch the next days episode on Fiver channel because I just can't wait for the next one. I know that you will be getting all the recognition in your own country but as an English women I just wanted to say that you deserve the best Australian soap, ever! Everything about your show seems so real and some of the recent episodes have really hit home. Congratulations to all the cast and thank you for bringing us a really fantastic programme which makes me what to visit your beautiful country. Here's to many more of your exciting, funny, sad and thrilling episodes. Well done.

Laura, 16, Ireland!: I'd just like to say that the Todd & Jess interview was brilliant and really enjoyable to watch! They were both so relaxed and casual as they answered all the questions and I was in fits of laughter when Jess read out that question where one girl asked Todd would he have her babies!! It was just so funny to see his response. Everytime I see them in an episode i keep saying to myself that they should win an award for their dedication and pure brilliant acting abilities! When 'Adelle' got back together on the show, it was just perfect. However, it's not great though that Belle is cheating on Angelo. He's a nice guy and doesn't deserve to be treated like that. However, he really did annoy me when he had a go at Aden for visiting Belle in hospital. I so wanted to tell him to back off. Aden can visit Belle if he wants to! I really hope that the scriptwriters keep 'Adelle' as a couple, they are just so perfect for each other, and as Jess said in the interview, there is something between them that wasn't there between Belle and Drew or Belle and Lucas. The show is absolutely brilliant at the moment, I love watching it!!! Keep up the great work!!! x0x0x

Rebecca: I live in Drogheda in Ireland ans I'm a huge fan of Home and Away! I'm 18 and I've watched it for years. Its definitely ones of the best shows I look at. I love the Aden and Belle relationship and I hope they stay together for a while now. Todd is so gorgeous! Love You!! He's so amazing as an actor, he's best at his emotional scenes but of course also great in the steamy scenes! I also love the fact that Nicole and Geoff are together now, they're so different but so right for each other. I've always loved Martha and Jack, they're the ultiumate Summer Bay couple! Love the show so much!! xoxo

Caroline: (UK) I would just like to say how well Todd Lasance is doing in his acting scenes. In England we see Home and Away episodes after Australia and i am enjoying it that much that i have watched all of the episodes up to date in your time. Todd Lasance has grown in the show so much and is becoming a very famous actor even over here in the UK. I can see him going very far (Hollywood maybe). His emotional scenes seem so real its un true and you can see how committed to acting he is through Home and Away. Could you please pass the message on to Todd.

Gail: I live in Dundee in Scotland. I would like to say to Todd that the way he has portrayed the character Aden has been amazing and I suspect that he has a long acting career in front of him. I would hope to see him in more things. I believe he has the talent and of course the looks to take him even to Hollywood if that was his desire. May you long continue on in home and away so I can keep watching. Thanks for the pleasure I get from watching you everyday.

Ruth: I'm e-mailing from the UK- I absolutly LOVE the show and never miss an episode. I think the UK is a bit behind with the storylines so cant wait to see what's coming up!!!! I think all the actors/actresses and their characters are amazing and really tell the stories of what is happening in Summer Bay well! So... never mind watching the British soaps... The Australian soaps win every time!!!!!!

Jenny: (UK) the HOT TODD feature is so sexy! The 13 photos of Todd as Aden are jaw dropping! One of the best features to appear on the site. Made my oh so boring day at work much brighter when I came across these photos! Todd is amazing. Also the vote that is happening for who has the best body without a shirt on is unquestionably TODD LASANCE!!

Eva: Belgium - Hi, thanks for the interview! Todd and Jess seem as great in real life as they are on the show. I'm really happy that they got back together! I'm also glad that geoff and nicole made up! they're soooo great as a couple! geoff is just so sweet and amazing when he tells nicole how he feels about her! they also have great chemistry! But I'm worried because on the site there is a picture of Melody dressing the same as Nicole and kissing Geoff!! Don't let psycho girl ruin it for Nicole and Geoff please please please please please!! Melody is crazy and obsessed with Geoff and she can't live up to Nicole! She's not as hot or as fun or anything! It's not because Melody and Geoff are both religious that they're meant to be together. When you see Nicole and Geoff on screen together it just kind of works, they click, you know! and when he's with Melody it's all kind of sad and you're just like oh he takes pity on the poor crazy girl. they don't match, so please let Geoff and Nicole be together they're both so goodlooking and they have an amazing on screen connection and please ditch stupid Melody! thanks!!

Laura: I just wanted to write an email and say how much I love the show and credit to all the cast and crew. My favourite couple are Tony and Rachel, it's a shame they don't get more screentime. There are so many fans of 'Tachel' over at the forums and after seeing how brilliant an idea the Aden and Belle interview was on the official site it would be so good if there could be a Tony and Rachel one. All the fans love seeing interviews and behind the scenes features as I'm sure you know, it would be great if these interviews could be done with the cast on a regular basis although I understand it's a lot of work to set these up! Thank you for reading my comment, Home and Away is so much better than any of the soaps in the UK so thank you!

Sarah-Jane: (UK) Hey. First of all i would just like to say how fantastic the storyline is at the moment. Aden and Belle getting back together, Geoff and Nicole (but keep melody away from them and let the be together!) But i really dont want Jai and Annie to break up. I think they are a really sweet couple and i think Annie should just accept that Jai wants their relationship to be more public. Also keep Aden and Belle and Geoff and Nicole together, they have to be the three greastest couples at the moment. Talking about Aden and Belle, the interview with Jessica and Todd was really good and made me laugh. Maybe you could do one with Lincoln Lewis and Tessa James? That would be great and im sure loads of viewers would watch it. Another brilliant thing you have done is kept Roman and Charlie together. I also think they are a great couple. Please keep them together! Thanks for all the great storylines and i think all the actors are brilliant. Thanks to all the producers and even though i am way ahead than what people are watching here in Britain, I LOVE THIS SHOW!! Thanks again and cant wait till the next episode!

Charlotte: UK - Just wanted to say keep up the good work, the show is fantastic, the writers,actors everyone involved you do a great job! Loved the Todd & Jess interview, any chance there will be a Jon & Amy one soon? There are a lot of Rachel & Tony fans out here too, and we've never seen them interviewed and would love too!

Jean: Heya!! not sure if todd and jess will read this but just like give ye both a huge thanks for doing the interview, it rocked!! I thought that australia was 12 hours ahead of ireland, so i thought that i'd be able to catch the interview before I went to school, but no such luck!!!It's great to see ye both taking time out to talk to the fans and answering all our questions!You both make the characters SSOOOOOO believable together as a couple and you look REALLY cute together!!! I hope adelle stay together!! ditch the cop already!!!!!!(please?!)

NIKKI: I HAVE JUST WATCHED THE ADELLE INTERVIEW ITS THE BEST ONE I HAVE EVER WATCHED HOPE THEY ARE TOGETHER FOR A VERY LONG TIME THEY HAVE ALOT OF CHEMISTRY ON SCREEN AND OFF SCREEN BY THE LOOK OF THEM TOGETHER ARE THEY A COUPLE IN REAL LIFE? ADEN IS SO HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Louise: Dublin - I just want to say thank you SOOOO much for the interview with Jessica Tovey and Todd Lasance! It was brilliant! They both seem like so much fun and so down to earth! Thanks a MILLION!!!

Jenny: UK - I have just watched the new interview Todd and Jess have done in response to their fans! It is great to watch. Tell Todd and Jess thank you so much for taking the time to answer letters. It means so much that they care. The storyline that the two of them are involved with at the moment that is being shown in the UK is gripping! Todd playing Aden is out of this world. His acting for the abuse storyline is mega amazing. Jess's acting too. Belles love for Aden is heart breaking. Aden and Belle or Adelle have got to be the best couple the show has had. I am hooked on the show and cannot miss an episode! love it love it love it!! Keep Adelle together!!! Aden and Belle belong - they are meant to be together!!! Loads of love Jenny G xx

Selvi(London,UK): As a 17 year old teenager, soaps are the perfect way to step back from reality and forget about gruelling exams and looming career decisions - even if it is just for half an hour a day. And home and away is no exception! As one of the many fans of Adelle and having just watched the interview between them, I can clearly see why they are such a hit! My eyes were particular transfixed on Todd for obvious reasons. His character is so similar to his personality in real life and I think that is why i am so attracted to him. Aden's character is what I look for in a guy: funny, cheeky, bad boyish yet still has a feminine side, confident and slightly cocky but in a good way, flirtacious, sweet and on top of that he is hot and single! What more could a girl want? I just wish I wasn't half way across the world. I think another reason why I really enjoy the show is that you have a teenage aspect to your show. Watching Nicole and Geoff - who by the way is also a really good looking - and their interaction is really great. Anyway I better stop writing before I sound like an infatuated Home and Away boy stalker. Keep doing what you are doing and I will definitely try n pop dwn to Austrailia nxt year n see if I can check out the set and cast. Love the show always!

Meeta (uk): HI, I love Home and Away have been watching it for years n years. Aden/Todd is the best looking guy 2eva be on the show he is HOTTTT!Lol, i love the adelle story at the begining just before the got together with him trying to impress her and her playing hard to get, it was cheeky + sweet...recently its gotten a bit heavy for them so I would like to see them get back to the fun stuff...they are like the new hayley+noah...i hope get married and stay in the show forever...be like the alf and alsa of this generation. :)

Ella: Hi! I'm 15 from surrey England and i have watched Home and Away for ever! i was devastated when it went of regular channels for a few years but now i watch it on fiver and it is better than ever. i am loving Todd and think he is one of the best characters but missing Drew and Ric! Keep it up!

Betty: HI! ALL AT HOME AND AWAY, I'M A VERY BIG FAN OF YOUR PROGRAMME LIVING IN THE U.K. I'M 65 YEARS OLD AND LOVE EVERY STORY LINE THAT YOU PRODUCE. I HAVE WATCHED YOUR SHOW FROM THE BEGINNING, WHEN SALLY ARRIVED IN THE BAY AS A VERY YOUNG GIRL,RIGHT UP TO THE PRESENT, WITH A COUPLE OF YEARS IN BETWEEN WHEN IT WAS TAKEN OFF OF OUR REGULAR CHANNELS AND PUT ONTO A DIGITAL ONE WHICH I WAS UNABLE TO GET, I WAS DEVISTATED , AS HOME AND AWAY HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVOURITE SHOW EVER. LUCKILY WE NOW HAVE DIGITAL AND ONCE AGAIN I CAN ENJOY YOUR PROGRAMME AND NEVER MISS AN EPISODE, I'VE EVEN GOT MY HUBBY HOOKED ON IT, SO PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND GIVE OUR REGARDS AND LOVE TO ALL THE CAST.LOOK FORWARD TO ALL THE GOOD STORY LINES IN THE FUTURE. REGARDS A POMME FAN

Clodagh.(Pronounced CLO-DA...don't worry, everyone gets it wrong!)I'm 13 years old from Ireland and I've gotta say I LOOOOOOOOOOVE Home & Away! It rocks! 10 MILLION times better than any of our stupid Irish soaps! LOL! Anyway! Thank you so, so, SOOOO much for hiring Jordon to play the role as Jai on your show! Why? Because he is the single most fittest, most HOTTEST lad ON this planet! Ha ha! <3 him! LOL! Thank's for making your show SO great that I just HAVE to see it everyday! Thanks...again! Love, Clodagh! Your number 1 Irish fan! ha ha!

Tom: Essex, England - Hallo to Australia! I am eighty years old and have been watching the wonderful Home and Away for ten years now, since my grand-children introduced me to it. I often think that the show keeps me going! The Belle/Aden storyline is the best ever, most sensitively played by two excellent young actors. I just hope we don't lose either of them to Hollywood too soon!

Kez: Scotland - I am 33 and watched H&A since the beginning I have three kids who all watch along with me and also my husband who will probably kill me for telling you all lol. The times i have cried to some of the storylines I could have flooded my country with tears haha. So sad to see Sally leave but I understand she needed a change and who knows we might see her back at some point. So excited when I realised who ollie was can't wait to see Kirsty and Kane back they were great together. Don't know if I am happy at the Jack and Martha story, she always comes across as a bit selfish, after Roman helping her out over the sam story and then dumping him for jack when i didn't work the first time round because of her demands, but hopefully they will last this time. Listen to me you'd think it was real life haha but thats just it, it seem so real that you can't help but get sucked in. Keep up the good work guys and heres to another 20yrs xx

Rebecca: (Yorkshire, England) I turn 18 next month and it will be 18 years watching the amazing Home and Away. I grew up watching the show seeing the incredible things that could happen in such a little show. My mum said when she was pregnant with me and the music of Home and Away came on i would always kick along to the music and after i was born and the music came on i would always turn my head in that direction towatch the TV she thoughth it was amazing. The show here is monday to friday at 6:30 and myself and my mother and father watch it every night i sometimes think it's the only thing that can get us into a room together to watch TV. I have my favourite charcters over the years like Dani and Nick and Noah and Hayley and Will when eachone would leave i would be very upset i also have my long time favourite characters such as Alf, Irene and the fabulous Colleen. I now have my favourite characters at the moment my ultimate favourite is Aden he's so hot and is such a bad boy i wish we had Todd Jeffries in England we need more of him around. I also like Jack and Martha and then Maddy and Nicole those girls are so great im always watching their outfits their fashion senses are incredible the costume manager of the show is amazing he or she should get a raise from their amazing outfits. I check the Australian site to see what comes up a little before it hits us and it just makes me so excited can't wait for the next couple of months they look to be amazing. Keep up the good job Home and Away cast and crew you all do an a amazing job.

Claire: I've just celebrated my 34th birthday and have been a fan of H&A ever since it began in the UK over 20 years ago. I make sure I record it every day so I don't miss and episode whilst I'm at the works and the storylines continue to be as good as they were on day 1! Its also been good to see some old characters making a return such as Flos, Carly and Steven for Sall's leaving party and Kirsty and Kane. When I'm at home I can't resist logging onto the website to see the latest sneak peeks so I know whats coming up. I was lucky enough to visit Palm Beach a couple of years ago and have a photo of myself on the beach with "Stewarts Point" in the background so whenever I watch the show it reminds me of holidays. My husband and I have visited Australia on holiday for the last 6 years and one of the bits I look forward to is getting back from a hard day's sight-seeing to catch the latest episode! We're back again this November so I can't wait to catch up on some of the stuff I seen in sneak peeks. Keep up the great work and here's to another 20 years!

Hayley: I just wanted to say I have followed home and away over the last 20 something years and I love it. I have to say the story line with Aden and Belle has been absolutely amazing, Aden especialy. We have watched as Aden has grown closer to Belle and finaly letting the cat out of the bag to what has been troubling him. I have to say last nights episode saw Aden finaly telling Belle what his grandfather had done to him as a child and I have to say I was moved to tears, this was one of the most moving scenes I have ever seen on Home and Away and was done wonderfully by Todd, speaking from experience abuse is tough on anyone and to re tell what happend to you to another person takes great strength and courage. Well done Todd for playing such an amazing character. It just shows what diverse roles an actor can play, the hard face angry young man to the sensitive and sweet Aden. I love this character and hope he finds happiness with Belle as i think they make an awsome couple onscreen and Aden deserves to be happy.

Dara: (Ireland)Hi guys, well I just want to say I am a 'mature' viewer of H+A! -I started watching it in the 80's and have always been a big fan... I say 'mature', - I don't FEEL that old, but you seem to have a lot of MUCH younger fans,and -well maybe I am 'mature' because... I remember Bobbi and Sam!! oooooh! I've enjoyed SO many stories over the years, I started watching it living at home, and continued watching it in London where I went to College. Now I'm married, and still religiously watching H+A each day! I was never into computers and only recently got a present of one from my husband. I started following your website, so now I get to catchup on your storylines, which is great because we are a couple of months behind you here in Ireland! I want to say I've REALLY been enjoying your storylines, but looking at the website, I can't wait to see this "Olympic Cliffhanger" that you've all been talking about! I think we only have a few days to go! I hope we don't have a 2 week wait for the outcome like you did for the Olympics!! I also want to get on the 'Keep Aden and Belle together' bandwagon!! Keep up the good storylines.

Brittany: Hi everybody in Australia, I am a huge fan of Home and Away. I am fifteen now and have watched it since I was about 3 years old. I am in Japan at the moment and I am missing out on two weeks of home and away and am worried about that. I have visited this website many times and I am finding it very helpful finding out on what i missed out on!

Jean(Ireland): My sisiter and I have been watching for years and just want to say that the Summerbay Stalker storyline was CLASS! Peter was brilliant and looked so hot solving crime. Why did he leave? Why?! Another missed character is Jonah, sorry, Michael. Bring him back. I've been reduced to watching youtube for glimpses of these two finers. Please introduce a mystery so convoluted that only Peter Baker can solve. And make Michael involved or something. I dunno. I'm not writing it, please come up with something to accomodate my needs. Scott should come back to visit Maddie. How come that family never visit each other? Loving Aden at the moment, as well as Martha and Jack. Thought the Cassie/HIV plotline was the best. Flynn's death was handled brilliantly. Everyone in Ireland mourned him. Whatever happened to Henry and Max? Thank you so much Home and Away for enriching our lives!

Lyndsey: (Ireland) - I Would Like To Request That You Have Geoff And Nicole Back Together !!! I Know They Are Complete Oposites ...... But There Great Together ! I Would Also Like To Congradulate The Script Writers Because There Doing A Great Job Now !! I'd Also Like It If Belle And Aden Could Get Back Together But If They Could Have A Great Storyline And Then They Should Get Back Together. I'm So Glad Martha Didnt Die Because Jacks Been Through Too Much Already, And Im Pretty Sure The Rest Of World Is Very Glad She Didnt Die Too. I Dont Think Kirsty And Miles Are Right For Each Other But Im Very Surprised Leah Wasnt Upset. Thats Pretty Much All I Have To Say But I Hope You Read This Email And Hopefully Put It On The Website ....

Jennifer: In January 2008 my daughter and her boyfriend decided to give up their jobs and travel to Australia for 8 months working their way from Melbourne to Cairns and back and ending up in Sydney before they returned home via San Francisco. My mother and myself decided to fly out in June 2008 to see them and visit some friends of mums in Melbourne we also flew around the country but one of my favourite places was seeing Palm Beach where some of Home and Away is filmed, i was luckly enough to be there when filming was going on and was able to see the beach and Alf's dinner and the surf club, our family watch Home and Away every night and hate to miss an episode and now every time i see the beach scenes i keep saying ' i was there' it is also very special to our family as my daughter Tracey was proposed to there on the beach (unfortunately the cast off Home and Away were on a break that day) in August before they came home but she will always be reminded when we watch our favourite soap very night. They would not have been in Palm Beach if it hadn't been for Home and Away many thanks and keep up the good work.

Christina: (24) Hi from Waterford Ireland. Just to let you know I've been watching the show all my life (I'm now 24) and it's the only soap that I will actually watch. Home and Away by far allows you inside another culture and community and the characters are so great that you can't wait until the next episode. Some of the most memorable episodes would be when Shane died and I suppose when Pippa kept on taking in foster kids etc...My mam fosters kids too and like Pippa and now Irene, she has an open door policy...all are welcome. Its great! My main reason for emailing is to describe how much Home and Away has an affect on the Irish people. Our local University WIT, has its own Bar (The Dome) and it airs Home and Away at lunch time. Not only is the place packed out with students watching Home and Away, but workers from the local banks and industrial estate also come in and watch the next episode unfold. We all get carried away and clap in some places, laugh, cry or shout in astonishment or glee. So KEEP providing us with your great story lines and all of Ireland will keep watching.

Louise: Oh my goodness - H&A just keeps getting better and better!! How do you guys do it?? I've never been so addicted to a show before.. 'o) I'm on the edge of my seat most nights - if not being moved to tears.. and hang for the next episode. Just want you all to know that you are doing a fabulous job! Great writers/producers and actors.... and thank goodness for the wonderful people who download to youtube for those of us who can't pick up Channel Five reception here in England!! Thank you all.

Jonathan: (California) While we haven't had Home and Away in America since early 1995, there are still a few Americans such as myself who continue to love the show and do everything we can to keep up! Luckily I have some wonderful mates in Aus so I still get to watch on a regular basis! The show has been amazing this year, great work to everyone! There are rumours going around that there have been negotiations with American networks to bring the show back over to America. I was just wondering if that was true? Keep up the great work with the website! All my love to the cast and crew!

Emma 14 (Ireland): I just want to say that I absolutely love Home & Away! My older cousins got me into I would say when I was about 5 and I have watched it ever since. The writers never fail to produce a great storyline and always have us on the edge of our seats. The cast of Home & Away are fantastic actors, and portray(not sure if right word) their characters very well i.e: Sharni Vinson (Cassie) with the H.I.V storyline and Todd Lasance (Aden) with the childhood abuse storyline. All the cast and crew really are fantastic. Hopefully when I am older I will travel to Australia and visit Palm Beach and hopefully meet some of the cast.

Khowla: (UK) I'm just loving home and away its the best ever. My favourite actress is Jodi Gordon and Tessa James. Both of them are the best. I would love to meet them both they are both great and i so wish they would come to britain. In the UK Ruby and Pat has just arrived i think i never miss and episode becuase Home And Away is the best i hope my favourite 2 characters stay forever Martha and Nicole please make them stay they are the best i hope home and away carries on at 6.00 and comes on again at 6.30 the next episode!!! I LOVE HOME AND AWAY ITS THE BEST OF THE BEST

Louise: Hi Home and Away.From the very first moment I saw Home and away I've watched it ever since.I can't live life without it.The best part of my day is when my sister and I watch it at 6.30pm from Monday - Friday.My favourite actor is Paul O' Brien who plays Jack Holden. My favourite actress is Jodi Gordon who plays Martha Mackenzie.Someday I would love to meet Paul O' Brien and Jodi Gordon.In Ireland Ruby Buckton and her boyfriend Pat have just come to our screens.They both are in Blue Water High.The best scene in Home and Away was when the roof fell in at Jack and Martha's first wedding.The saddest moment for me was when Kim left.Is there any chance of Amanda Vale or Kim Hyde returning to our screens? I can't wait for the next episode of Home and Away.

Emma: (Ireland) Home and Away is the best thing on the television at the moment. In Ireland we are about a month to two months behind. It has just taken a three week break due to the Olympics, which is annoying as they are showing Neighbours in its slot when we could be catching up on episodes that have already been viewed in Australia. However I have viewed the 'cliff hanger' episode on YouTube and I have to say I can't wait to view it here in Ireland! Poor Jack and Martha nothing ever seems to go right for them. Every actor/actress in Home and Away are fantastic and fair play to the writers, their storylines are exceptional and always have us glued to the T.V in awe. One of the best but sad scenes this year was the departure of Kate Ritchie-Home and Away isn't the same without her and the episode in which she was stabbed by Rocco really left me glued to the T.V and of course Johnny!!!! The scenes with Zoe were great especially the aftermath of Jack and Martha's wedding where Peter died and then suddenly came back to life where he then transferred to the city to be with Amanda. Holly Brisley is a great actress. Mama Rose and the Believers was also a great storyline-a small bit creepy however! All in all every episode of Home and Away is a pleasure to watch as it is the best soap on the television. Ray Meagher-LEDGEND(You will always be Mr.Stewart to me, ALF!) I would really love to visit the set of Home and Away and meet some of the cast members someday. Keep up with the good work.

Maria (13) from England: just wanna say home and away is the best show by, it sure beats neighbours. the storylines are really good and the actors are great. the Uk is like one month behind australia so its always cool to catch up on the aussie site. the soap IS on a 3 week break and i think im going mental, but thank god we can watch the oldern days of H&A. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND ACTING.

Kerry: (UK) Hi, I've been watching Home and Away since the very beginning and I have to say, the show just goes from strength to strength. Recent storylines such as Aden's abuse, Axel assaulting Melody and Cassie's HIV diagnosis have been dealt with with such sensitivity by the writing staff. These are issues that are often kept quiet because people are ashamed to talk about them, but the way that the cast and crew of Home and Away has highlighted them should be commended. These storylines are showing that victims should speak out. A huge congratualtions to all who have been involved in these stories - thank you for getting the right message across. Also, goodbye and the very best of luck to Mark Furze and Indiana Evans, two very talented actors who I'm sure will find success wherever they go.

Eeva:(Estonia) I'm 14 years old. Well the show here is in year 2005 although it's very interesting, i love this show, so is my granny loving it. I have watched it for 10 years. This show is so well built up that i'd watch it like forever, i always get up in the morning knowing: tonight is a new episode of Home And Away. I like the twists in the show, like Josie's and Jesse's wedding and "old loves" returning. I thing the best couples are Tasha & Robbie and Ric & Matilda, they just fit together perfectly:). The show wouldn't be good without Colleen, she tells every secret to anyone. And the stalker, I also thougt it was Mark, but Zoe, yeah thats so unbelivable. I've been watching for some ep. in the future(well my future). I hate that Sally leaves and Dan dies, but this is how life goes. I want this show to be on tv when i have grandchildren, I want them to see this piece of masterpiece. Thanks for listening to me! Keep up the good work!;)

Katelyn: I just read on your website that Annie and Jai are going to kiss this week!!!!! Yay Yay Yay! Annie has been my favourite character since she entered the show and I've been wishing she would get a kiss! Thankyou so much for making this happen!!!!! I also think the Miles, Leah and Kirsty stituation is great. I think this week will be interesting seeing as miles keeps seeing her half naked! I also hope that Miles like Kirsty not Leah. xxx sorry Leah but Kirsty suits him more. I'll be watching, and keep these great storylines going.

Sharon: (Ireland) Have to say you really aren't making Jack and Martha's reunited relationship easy are you?! First the 'who's the daddy' story and now you're putting them through breast cancer...please let Martha live...they deserve to be happy, for a wee while at least! Martha just told Jack today that she's pregnant so the cancer story hasn't aired here yet but I've seen the headers on your site. If anyone in Summer Bay are soulmates they are! Poor Roman, what an absolute babe...him and Leah would be a great couple...hint, hint, nudge, nudge!! I know this Charlie is coming but by the sounds of it she's not out to make too many friends so she definitely wouldn't fit with Roman...unless she mellows of course. I have to say I'm hoping for a Roman/Leah union. I did think Miles and Leah would make be good but I've changed my mind! I've just read that Ric and Mattie are leaving for pastures new soon. I want to wish them both every success in their future careers and boy will Ric be missed on the Summer Bay screen...Mattie will too but Ric for the eye candy feature!!!!! Keep up the good work, loving the show more and more every day. There is a three week break of H&A coming up from 2nd August...withdrawal symptoms here we go!!!

Elysia: hey, omg i love home and away!!!!! I am seriously addicted and have been since i was tall enough to get the remote to change the channel!!!! When I am older i want to be an actress, so I hope I get a chance to appear in the serious-somehow! I am 12 years old, live in Wiltshire-England and we are SO far behind australia its a serious problem! Me and my mate Maisie are forever watching it on youtube and we have a slight addiction for aden at the moment, keep the storylines coming!!!!!!

Shauna (Ireland) -17 - Just givin a shout out to d best show ever!! Have been a fan ever since i can remember and it seems to be getting better every week!!! I've just finished secondary school and one of the memories that will always stick with me is our conversations about home and away in music class (a mix of 35 boys and girls!!) It's weird watching it without Sally but all d other characters more than make up for it..especially Aden!!! The storylines are addictive which leaves me unable to miss an episode. All of my friends are big fans and hope to be for years to come..keep up the good work!!x

Elly Rose: I am a 22 yr old female from Papua New Guinea and Im studying here in Brisbane. Ever since I was a kid...my dad bought us this Tv Dish so that we could watch other channels apart from our National Tv. I love Home and away since my childhood... I would try not to miss one show. Livin in the village...where our country is still developing..you could imagine how many people would come to my house to watch Tele. Thats when my mum went and bought two screen for herself and us the kids.

My mum, my four brothers and my little sister are crazy with your show. My dad really hates them coz he cannot watch BBC world news. I was on holiday from the college so I went home and it was so quiet, and the only person in the house was Dad. I asked him where the all tribe went and he said " Sweetie...just watched the clock by 7pm sharp you'll see the big faces rushing in for the Remote. Beleive me ...I was Shocked to see my Mum...She came runnin and she just took the remote, switched the Tele and sat on the couch.!! I was like Mum you didnt even say Hi to your Daughter!! and ma mum lookedd at me and said..Sweetie I'll still give u a hug and a kiss but Home and Away.... is goin away..and I won't replay. I was shocked and after some seconds the whole gang came in...I was there althrough the show..seeing how well they were concentrating and stuff. God..My Mum really loves Leah and Sally. God she cried so hard for Sally. Shes really really addicted to Home and Away. Any way after the show they came and hug me and God I was hot and angry coz the Kids were trying to update me with the shows I missed. Imagine five little kids trying to summerize the all shows I missed. Its intresting..as English is not our first langage..The kids can speak some words in English. Im very grateful of that.

I'm sending you this email...coz my small sister said please let them know that there's a little girl in Papua New Guinea who cannot miss a show. Im sending you this letter on behalf as I fell satisfied and happy as a Great Fan. My Favorite was Vinnie,Leah,Wills and Hayley,JC and yeah God I love Irene so much...I really admire her. Belle you Rock...Top of ma heart..I love Leah and I do Admire you. And to all the Home and Aways.. you guys doin a good show...I love your shows so keep comin better. Please do know its not Australia only that watches your shows...You do ave fans in PNG especially people in the village. Thankyou very much and all the very best in your upcoming shows.

Kylie: Although i am Australian, i have moved to Japan for 10 months and am still getting my weekly 2.5 hours of Home and Away. My parents record it onto a DVD for me every week and send it to me in Japan, i couldn't live with out it! I have been watching the show ever since i can remember and although i have moved countries, it is the one consistant factor in my life! I have even been able to get some other foreigners addicted to the show!! Thanks Home and Away, can't live without you!

Michelle -(England): I would like to say that I have been watching what has been happening with kirsty and Kane from the edge of my seat it was good to see them back in the show and the little boy that plays their son ollie does it so well. The thing that I have been really into is the growing relationship between Aden and Belle everyone that is watching knows that they want to be with each other but they are to scared to admit it even to themselves but thankfully it all come out after Aden looks at Belles laptop and notices that she has got loads of photo`s of him on it, I particually like the way that it was him that made the first move between the pair of them because if he hadn`t I don`t think that anything would have happened. I hope that they continue with the Aden/Belle love story line for a long time because not only is it a great story but the pair of them need a good person in their lives after everything that has happened. I was sad to see Sally go after all this time on the bay but what made me cry was the very last scene Kate Richie did on the beach with Ray in which she said for the first and last time his name I will never forget that and I have watch everyone since it started I even remember the old cafe that was part of the shop and it had a flat at the back of it that is how far my memory goes back. I will repeat I hope that the Aden/Belle story line goes on for a long time.

Serian: (USA) - I started watching Home and Away when I was a little kid back in Norway. I since moved to the United States and was for many years sick to my stomach because I missed so many episodes. Thanks to the wonderful Internet, I am reunited with my favorite show at last. I have been reading up on blogs and surfing the Internet to try and catch up on the lost episodes, and I am finally all caught up. My favorite time of day is getting ready to watch what exciting things are going to erupt in Summer Bay. I absolutely love this show. Hope it stays on forever. I appreciate the authenticity of the cast, the location and the overall feel of the show. I am sick and tired of American glamorous soaps and find it just refreshing to see people that look real and that live love and work everyday, just like you and me. Thank you Home and Away, for making my days a little bit more sunny...

Sue: Hi there everyone in Home and Away. I am a big fan from Ireland. I am 38 and have been watching your show since the pilot....I love it....When I go on Hols I always arrange for someone to tape it for me! I was so sad to hear Kate leaving the show, but can understand her wanting to have a change. I heard her on our radio station here lately. They did a link up with Radio Nova, and chatted to her and her co-host (don't know his name - but I gather he is big over there - or was there two of them - was only really listening to Kate...Lol). Glad to hear she is having a ball. Her leaving was only aired here in Ireland last week and it was so emotional. Her speech sounded like it was written from the heart, and I am sure she meant every word as she was saying it. As for the song....Pure genius. I went looking for it today, as it was such a powerful song. And through my searching I came across this site. Congrats to you all for a great show, a great site, and recognizing all your fans both home and away... I have just spent last 4 or 5 hours watching all your videos etc....Maybe I need a life..Lol. I love all your episodes through the years that show the flashbacks....Always brings me back.... Now that Sally has gone there probably isn't much call for flashbacks...Don't let Alf leave. I always loved the shows where previous cast members came back. And think its a real tribute to the show that they would take time out to come back for episode or two....Loved Alf's birthday. On a final note, I watched the best moments of 2007 on your video list. Any chance of doing that through the years from the beginning? Would be really great to look back on the storylines. You could set up a new section....Just a thought...Lots of love and best wishes for your next 20 + years. S

Kerry: Glasgow - Just wanted to let u you i love the show, it's great. I was in Oz recently with my fiance and we went to palm beach, was a bit disappointing as there was no filming that day but was great to sit outside the surf club and have a drink. Hope to be back again soon.

Grace: Hi guys. May i just say that i absolutely love the show. It is far better than the Irish or British soaps. Your storylines cover wide areas that British soaps dont do. The Aden(who is hot) story is brilliant, you can see the good side of him coming out,and the HIV/AIDS epidemic story was brilliant. I love all the new characters, i did have my doubts on them at the start, but i'm learning to love them. It was sad to see Sally go after all these years,she is brilliant. I love her and Miles(he is so funny),and also glad for Martha and Jack. But the real storyline im looking forward to is the Kirsty/Kane returning. I loved them before,and i'm gonna love them again. What would be gr8 is if his father was finally caught and they could live permanently happily ever after in Summer Bay with little Ollie. Once again, i love the show, its all me and my friends can talk about.Its brilliant and keep up the good work,hopefully one day my kids will love it just as much as i do.Thanks for the gr8 characters and storylines.Love u guys,espec:Jack,Aden,Geoff and Roman...tlk about hotness in the bay and Axel aint bad either..keep him in too..Love u Home and Away.U Rock!

Sabrina: Ireland - O.M.G I cannot believe Ive been watching H&A for the best part of 20yrs!! Where's the time gone? I'm 28 and have practically grown with the show and now my two little boys T.J and Noah, love it too. And yes, I did take Noahs name from the show! I was a HUGE fan of Kim so imagine my suprise when he and Hayley called her son Noah. My Noahs middle name is Jonathan so I was even more suprised when Kim gave Noah the middle name Jonathan! great taste in names or what?! Sorry to see Sally go after all this time- she's fantastic, but I wish Kate every success in her new ventures. Any chance of Chris coming back to play Kim soon? Whats with all my favourite hotties leaving? Is it because I got married recently?! haha. Well, keep up with the fantastic storylines, employ more hot-male talent (I know theres still a few left) and keep thinking up great character names. Where do you get them from anyway? Sabrina is a petty good one too dontcha think?!! Bye x x

Jo: Ireland - Hi, have to say was sad to see sally (kate) leave home and away been watchin the programme since I was a teenager and now beeing a mature student in college have to say its a staple part of every irish students diet..... our college has a tv room and its always full for the afternoon episode whether or not we should be in lectures... heading to sydney in july and as a huge fan would love to see the beach where its filmed... anyway keep up the good work and don't forget ur irish fans....

Rodney: I'm 22 and from England, I've watched Home and Away pretty much since the start, through School, College and University and seeing the people of Summer Bay has been the one constant. I've got to know so many characters, great storylines and especially the beautiful landscape on the set. Of all the characters in the show however, it's definitely the hardest to say goodbye to Sal. She has been such a great part of the show seeing her grow up, and the ending the writers gave with the farewell concert was very fitting for a character who has given 20 memorable years to the show. Here in the UK today is Sally's last appearance and there will be a big gap when she leaves. I hope one day to visit Australia and see the area where Summer Bay is set and please keep up the good work as the cast and the storylines are very strong right now, especially with Jack and Sam. Most of all I wish the very best of luck to Kate Ritchie in all she does in the future, all Home and Away fans here in the UK will miss you very much on our screens.

Robbi: Ireland - 'Home and Away' is watched by everyone here!! I watch it every weeknight, and the omnibus on RTE (obsessed or what?!). My brother and I have to be the biggest fans ever! We were lucky enough to catch Ray in Belfast when we were kids for the Christmas pantomime, and were wondering, is there any chance of seeing the Home and Away stars back in Ireland?

They usually make it over to England, not sure about Ireland.

Anne: Hey! I'm a 16 year old girl from Norway. I simply love Home and Away, and I've watched it for years. I even watched it when i was maybe 4 or 5 years old, cause my babysitter watched it. And i can still remember the old soundtrack. I also remember one time when i was in first grade, i told my teacher that i watched Home and Away. She didn't believe me and just said "No you don't, that show is for grownups." So, i have watched the show for as long i can remember and i never get tired:D And if i miss one episode, i feel like skipping school the next day so i can watch the reprise(is that the word?) Well, as you can see; I think it's the best show ever made!

Sarah:'England' Hello every one at Home and Away!
My name is Sarah and I am 19 years old. I have been a fan of Home and Away since such a young age. I think I "inherited" it from my grandparents.
Here in England we have a channel called five life where we can watch Home and Away a night early (first chance woo woo!!!)
I absolutely love Home and Away, it's fab. I want to move to Australia when I'm older. It's always been my dream. I just think it is so beautiful and has MUCH better weather than here in sunny England.
I love all of the story lines at present and I'm loving the new eye candy (in the form of Roman o la la) even more! I really hope the Geoff gets a girlfriend, I am just waiting to find out.. give him somone beautiful but with values like Geoff pleaseee!
Home and away is AMAZING!!
love to you all

Tanya:'London' I'm 13 and I just love Home and Away. I've been watching it for so long and it's so sad to see my favourite characters leave like Sally. I know it's kinda cheesy but watching that video of her farewell concert made me cry. And I hope she at least comes back in the future. And I was so shocked when I found out Drew was gunna leave. When I found this website I was like I LOVE YOU AUSTRALIA! I always knew there some something up with Sam. Don't get me wrong she acted like a nice person but I knew she had deep secrets. And now Martha and Jack can get back together even though it's a rough patch for them too. In a way I'm happy Johnny blackmailed her because it made the programme even better but I felt so bad for him when I watched him in hospital. Well even criminals have feelings too. But it was so sad when he got someone to kill Rocco. My sister screamed so loud. She loves Ian Meadows and I bet a lot of other girls do. I can't wait to see movie's he's in coz he's such a good actor. And I felt so sad when Dan died but at least 1 brother did okay for himself. Peter with Amanda. Wow I wrote a lot, but I'm just so happy. I LOVE HOME AND AWAY!

Roisin: 'Ireland' I'm 15 and I have been Watching the show since I was about 6!! Home and Away is like the teenager's bible in Ireland. Last year we did a survey in a class of 18 girls, the result was that 16 out of the 18 were watching Home And Away. The two girls that didn't watch Home And Away are now watching the show. It isn't just teenagers who watch Home And Away, my 20 and 26 year old sisters watch the show as do my mom, aunt, and all their friends. I am sooo sad to see Kate leaving the show, she is a fantasic actress and I'm sure she has great things ahead of her. I have never seen an actress so good at crying. To the writers, lately you have been coming up with amazing storylines. I was shocked to find out that it was Sam that was helping Johnny, then killed him and when Jack founded out she said that she was pregnant was just genius! Cassie being HIV was a great storyline and it really infromed me on HIV. I'm a very big Jack and Martha fan and want them to get back together but I think Roman and Martha are so cute, and a really hope Roman stays as nice and sweet like he is now. I was very sad to see Rhys and Bobby leave but bringing Aden in as a main character was a brillant idea. His one liners make me laugh out loud. Rachel and Tony are such an adorable couple. Home and Away is the best show and soap on TV, it really beats all Irish and English soaps that I watch. To all the cast, crew and writers, keep up the good work and I am excited to see what new storylines lay ahead.

Emma: 'New Zealand' I just LOVE H&A!! I've been watching it for like 5 years now and it's SO awesome! We often come across the ditch to oz for holidays and then we get ahead on all the goss!

Sharmila: Kia Ora! Im from New Zealand and have been watching Home and Away for over 10 years now, and I can recall a storyline a few years back when Colleen had met with her daughter that she had at the age of 15 and adopted her out. Her daughter came to the Bay and in fact had a short-term relationship with Alf Stewart, and now I am disappointed as Colleen turns out to be Alf's sister so does that makes out that Alf had a romantic relationship with his neice?? I wish the writers though carefully about what their storylines were going to be and not just make up something so out of the blue and ridiculous because the shows 20 year anniversary is coming up. I'm sorry to be so mean, but I generally think Home and Away is a good show, but was just disappointed with the recent storyline concerning Alf and Colleen.

Sarah: Hi, I am 23 and I am from the UK, I have been watching Home and Away since I dont know when and I am loving every min of it! The story lines have been so great over the years and the story line at the moment is great too. I'm obsessed with the new guy Roman played by Conrad Coleby, he is so nice looking and such a great actor and his personality is really nice too! I dont suppose there is a way I can contact him? I was just going to write him a letter and send it to the address that is said on the website.
I was so sad when Lucas left as I really liked him! I went to OZ last year and thought it was such a beautiful country and I would love so much to live there...much better than rainy England!
Just want to say that I think the soap is brilliant and will always keep watching it, your all great, keep dong what your doing!
love
Sarah xx

Stephanie: "Scotland" i am 17 and love Home & Away. I am totally addicted to it =) Started watching home and away a couple of years ago and now i am glued to it. All the storylines are great and i want Jack & Martha to get back together! Aussie live looks amazing and my dream after studying Architecture at University is to move to Australia. Hopefully soon i will have the chance to come over for a wee holiday. I love the younger characters of the show : Ric, Matilda, Cassie , Belle and Drew as they are around the same age as me, in some ways i can relate to them. It would be amazing to meet some of the actors of the show : Mark Furze , Sharni Vinson , Indiana Evans. They all look like a really good bunch of people allow with the rest of the cast. I think its soo sad that Sally is leaving the bay she has been on the show forever and is a central character which everyone loves. She will be missed a lot. I heard rumors that Tasha's coming back to the bay , is that true ?

Kirsty is coming back..maybe the rumours got mixed up.

Marie: Hiya everyone in Home & Away I'm from Ireland and I'd just like to tell ye that I absolutely LOVE home and away! Nearly everyone here does!!!! I think ye do great story lines and really get the message out there to people about say HIV,like with cassie or when she got hit with macca. I think yere all amazing and i'd love to go to australia one day and see the set!!! we're about three months behind here so i always go onto the website to see whats happening!! all yere actors and actresses are amazing!!!! I know that Kate Ritchie left there a while ago(it'll be another few months before she leaves our screens!) and i wish every luck to her. who ever the script writer(s) is is amazing! i love watching home and away and when you think theres nothing left to give ,ye come up with something else! i absolutely love it! one question: are Martha and Jack ever going to get back together ?!;i've been looking at the photos and they still havent go together! and thats months away! anyway thanks for such a great show! From a big fan! oh ya and remember ye've got some loada irish fans!

Emma: Hey I'm from the UK, and would just like to say I absolutely love Home and Away! It is my favourite soap on tv it keeps me more glued to the screen than any of our soaps! I've been watching it for as long as I can remember, and all my family know not to bother me when its on hahaha! The story lines are fantastic, and I'm enjoying the current one, the trouble with Johnny Cooper escaping prison so much so I've had to sneak a look at the story line in advance-brilliant. I love Callan Mulvey and was so happy to have him back in the Bay, so sad he's been killed off though :(
Question-I've always liked Callan Mulvey back to the days of Heartbreak High are you able to tell me what Callan has in the pipe line now his days on Home and Away are finished, and does he have a current fan web site he is adorable. x
Love the show keep it up, everyone on it is FANTASTIC :) lol x

He is currently in the show Underbelly...Cheers!

Katrina: G’day…! Kat from ‘Scotland’ Calling.! ‘’uck aye the noo’’…! I just wanted to say that as well as being a fantastic show with great story lines you guys are all amazing actors too. I have watched the show from the very beginning, I’m the same age as Sally so watching the show with Sally there has been a huge part of my growing up and childhood. I will be so soo sooo sad to see Sally leave and I just cannot imagine what the show it will be like without her. On a brighter note however, I’d like to say as a fan thanks for all the great years you gave to the show and good luck with everything in the future ! P.S will we be seeing wee Pippa before they leave.. ha ha..!

Emma: I am a HUGE H&A fan and have been for many years. I just wanted to ask a quick question regarding 'Sally's Blog'. As we are so far behind here, I look forward to reading Sally's Blog every week as it gives a really good in-depth guide as to what's been going on in Summer Bay. With Sally now leaving are you going to get someone else, like Leah for example, to do these weekly updates as my week just wouldn't be the same without them!?

Hi Emma, yes Leah will take over from Sally to keep all the fans up-to-date with life in Summer Bay.

Lior: I'm in the UK so I appreciate that we're a few months behind on the storylines, but I have to say this - has there been a drastic change in the writers department because if there has...its worked! Home and Away has been so brilliant lately, I'm so happy. The change is so noticable and I'm so glad, please please keep it up! But I have to say this, I don't know what the rules are in Australia about what is appropraite to put on television or not, but please don't be afraid to tackle gritty storylines. For example, the Rachel and Henk connection - I swear you refused to say the word "rape" so it didn't ring true, also the Cassie with HIV storyline, brilliant - real stuff like that happens, and it makes for great viewing + i especially loved the Reverend Hall Hospital Attacker storyline, the religious connection was inspired.

Hi Lior, yes we are restricted from using words like 'rape', but the writers still managed to get the message across.

Jennie: Kent, England - I love Home and Away so much its better than any other soap i love the fast pace of the storylines and the fact that when people leave the show they are still talked about unlike other soaps where when characters leave they are never mentioned again and its like they never existed! I'm really sad to hear Kate Ritchie is leaving, Home and Away will never be quite the same without her! I do have a question for you though, How come Sam was able to marry Jack using the name Sam as if my memory is correct she is really called Carly and Sam was the name she used while hiding from her Ex???!!!!! I think Jack and Martha should be reunited they are meant to be and you should bring back old favourites like Kirsty and Kane!!! Keep up the good work guys and i love the Home and Away Newsletter for the Sneak peeks as we are so far behind you!!!!

Hi Jennie, I believe Sam changed her name officially. I'm glad you enjoy the newsletter and sneak peeks it's a good way to keep up-to-date. Make sure you check Bay News next week for info on Kirsty!! Cheers Tania

Pearl: Northampton, England - I would like to say that I love Home and Away and it is shame that Sally is leaving the show, my mum and I have watched Home and Away since the beginning and it just keeps getting better and better. Lot’s of the comments have talked about Jack and Martha and although I to would like them to get back together I would like to talk about Ric and Mattie, ahhh such a great couple who are indeed in love, it is a shame that Ric was taken in by Viv and even though sometimes Viv “appears” to be sincere, I can’t help think she has a hidden agenda she didn’t love or like Ric she only liked what he had to offer that her husband couldn’t give her or what she really wanted from him, she didn’t care about how he was in an relationship as she wouldn’t off kept calling him personally to fix her car she was acting like a spoilt child that couldn’t get her sweets, I wouldn’t be surprised if she damaged the car herself in order for Ric to come and fix it, I really hope that the pregnancy thing is a fake, can you imagine Ric as a dad and the other crazy thing if they did get back together Mattie being a step mum, I am looking forward to what 2008 brings. Thank you for a great show!!!!

Cara: Ireland - hey!! May I say this site is totally cool!! I have been watching home and away 4 as long as i can remember and even though i'm only fifteen that's a long time!!! i love the storyline at the mo!!! and even though jack and martha make a cute couple i think sam would be a better option for jack!!! but i'll just have to wait and see!!! i'm very distraught to hear that sally has shot her final scenes in home and away but at the same time i'm looking forward to seeing her in her next projects!! Before i go i'd just like to say hello to mark (ric) and even though it was a few years ago when you were on soap star superstar i was ruiting for you to win and when you were voted out i was sooo angry i couldn't watch the final (i voted for you every night)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!well i'm marks biggest fan and hopefully one day i'll get to meet him!!!!!!!! x

Penny: I love Home & Away! And now my 12 year old son is getting into it too. Every other evening we'll relax on the sofa and watch a couple of episodes that I have recorded previously. I set the timer on my video recorder, so I never miss an episode! I love to read Sally's Blog, to see what's in store for us here in the UK. It doesn't spoil my viewing, but my son doesn't want to know. Although sometimes he'll say 'Who is the attacker?' (we're up to just after Martha's attack and then her kiss with Jack on the beach) I keep him guessing! Haha! My question to you is, as Kate Ritchie is leaving the show, who will be continuing 'Sally's Blog'? Irene or Colleen could be suitable contenders. What do you think?

Hi Penny, I spoke to Ada Nicodemou the other day and as Leah is Sally's best friend and gave birth to little Pippa, we think Leah would be a good contender...Regards Tania

Cherie: South Africa - I was blessed to visit Australia in 1993 at the age of 15. I was touring your beautiful country for 2 months and had the priviledge of watching Home & Away. I was hooked from then on. H&A reached South African shores soon after that & I continued to enjoy every episode. Unfortunately a couple of years later and the show ended in SA much to my sadness. But approximately 10 years later and its returned to our screens:) You can't believe how I felt when I got to watch the show again. I was filled with such emotion & began remebering the good old days. At the age of 30, I never imagined that I could be so engrossed in a show. I have tried to put all the pieces together, as, from what i'm seeing, the show that has returned is fairly current. So many years of the show have been cut out. Never the less, we are blessed to have the show viewed Monday to Friday and I dont miss a single episode. I am completely hooked. I dont know how far behind we are at the moment. We are at the stage where Sally has just left Brad at the alter and Cassie has just moved in with Henk. I was so surprised to see that the adorable & hunky Jack Holden was born in South Africa:) I hope that the show continues viewing for many years to come. Is there a dvd box set out of the series? I would love to be able to watch from episode 1. I notice that there are competitions for guest appearances fo residents only. Is there ever a chance that you could run a competition for your overseas fan club to appear in the show and meet the cast. That would be the ultimate dream come true. Carry on doing the awesome job that you are doing! Love you guys.

Sorry there are no DVD's but we will be putting the 'pilot' episode online as part of the Celebrating 20 years of Home and Away in June.

Sophie O'Grady: New Zealand (12)- I absolutely ADORE home and away! we a little bit behind in NZ and todays episode featured Martha and Michael leaving the bay! i just told my uncle's girlfriend about the hospital attacker (the reverend hall) and boy was she laughing!!! i am sooo glad that i came across this website because i love knowing whats happened in Aussie! i really do not like sam coz shes sooo EVIL y'no! Like today, martha rang up jack before she left and it went onto answer phone and she left a message and then sam deleted it.... i mean that's pure evil. i really want jack and martha to get married again becoz its obvious that thats how its meant to be!!!! Anyway i really love Sally and want her to stay! i also wanna know whats up with the MILCO thing, when it's gonna start?? Anyway, all my best wishes to Kate Ritchie in her life she's been a real role model, the last 3 years i've been watching the show.

Isobel: Dartford, England - Having watched today's episode on Five, I can't help but wonder if Jack actually picked the right dress up from the shop? Martha's about a foot taller than Sam and that dress was long enough on her! What's the plan? Sam puts the dress on and it is so long she trips over and breaks her neck half way up the aisle, allowing for the Martha/Jack reunion everyone wants? And what's going to happen to Sal?!?!? I've heard about the Cassie plotlines, which will be an interesting watch, but I am a little worried about Sally. Also it was FANTASTIC to see the love of my life from my teenage years, Simon Kay (Now Bossell) return to the Bay as Kevin a few weeks ago! I was very excited! (A bit sad when you're 34 and you loved him when you were 15!) Keep up the good work, all ye in Summer Bay!

Sarah: Belgium - I'm 23 and I've been watching Home and Away since I was 13. After a few years my best friend started to watch H&A because I was always telling her about it! We are now at the episode where Mama Rose has kidnapped Martha and pregnant Tasha. Because we look on this site we know what's about to come, but that's not so bad. Were just so curious about what's going to happen to everyone =) Home and Away has made me laugh and cry over the many years I've been watching. There is only one program that I cannot miss and that's Home and Away. So thank you for such a great program!

Frode: Trondheim, Norway - Here i Norway we have just participated in Dr Saunders funeral. The series is a daily enjoyment in both my own and my girlfriends days, and will continue to be hopefully for many years yet.

Rossettio: UK - Am I the only person in the world who doesn't think Martha deserves Jack? She knew he was a policeman when she married him and that his timetable would be full and erratic yet she hollered at him and tried to pin him down to her timetable from day one and the poor bloke was just doing his job. He hasn't changed as he still treats Sam accordingly. Martha needs to grow up...she had her chance and now she sees Jack is happy with someone else she decides the grass is greener and wants something she can't have. Typically jealous homewrecker.

Brian: North Devon, England - I read all the ‘Overseas comments’, often they are most interesting and I download the 'Week in Pictures'. I am 81 years old, but I may not have mentioned that four years ago I became blind! Cataracts were treated with implants in both eyes. As a result I have 20/20 distant vision down to 20 yards, close-up, things are not so clever (I can't see to shave so I am pleased I have sported a beard for 61 years). Reading is however simple! I have a 32” hi-definition Screen above my desk. I scan in items like the Sally’s Blog, I can see it on this huge screen. Running a “Read” programme reads the text aloud to me and any strange word I hear, a click of the mouse causes the software to try a list of synonyms. I also play your Video Clips on this big screen.

Wow how impressive! A dedicated fan and tech savy...well done Brian.

Kate and Brona: Dublin, Ireland - We are a bit behind Australia in episodes so just watched Martha and Michael in the hay. MY GOD could be a person be any HOTTER??! (In reference to Michael) We cant understand why people want her to get back together with Jack. Him (in his 7 year old boys clothes) and annoying Sam can stay together for all we care! We ask you this...who looks better in a vest, Michael or Jack? (rhetorical question) James...give us a call. I hope we're portraying how in love we are with you. We want to see you with your top off soon and a close up of your back would be much appreciated. Also anytime you feel like coming to Dublin, we will be your official guides and we'll make a makeshift barn in our back gardens, loaded with hay!! That tattoo, what a tattoo. If you writers write him out of the show we'll be ragin at ya. Or if you choose to leave for that matter James. Unless it is to come to Dublin to see us of course. I think we've said enough. And we are fully aware of how sad we are. We'd never get over it if you wrote back, you could consider it your good deed of the year! Lots of love, your biggest fans

Sharon: Ireland - I absolutely love your show, you're storylines are brilliant, I am really hooked. I've have watched H&A since day one and loved every minute of it. You really know how to take the plots to the edge! I'm really sorry to hear that Kate Ritchie is leaving, she is a fab actress and has been brilliant as Sally. I feel like I've known her most of my life as she grew up on my television screen! I just want to wish her every success with whatever she goes on to do but she will be greatly missed. I hope that awful creature Johnny isn't involved in her exit!!! As for Jack and Martha...sort yourselves out will you?!!! It's so obvious that the still fancy the pants off each other...every time I watch them in a scene together the chemistry is buzzing...two great actors!!! Today was so sad when Pop made amends with Geoff over his footie and thanked Tony for his help before collapsing building the cattle fences...poor Annie and Geoff will be heartbroken but again fab story and great work to the cast and crew. Ric is very nice eye candy...I hope he doesn't quit the show anytime soom!!! I love every one of the cast...I laugh, cry and cringe with you all...keep up the good work. From your no. 1 fan. xxx

Chelsea: (England) I am a huge fan of home and away, i'm 14 years old and for as far as i can remember i have been watching the show, my mum has watched it from the beginning. My favorite characters are Jack and Martha, i wish with all my heart they would get back together. athough we are a few months behind i do know what has been going on out in Australia. i try to get down to the panto's around the country when home and away stars are in them. I live just outside London, so my parents end up taking me over the place. Keep the good work going guys, its great watching. hopefully Jack and Martha can get back together in the new season, eventhough of his marriage to sam!!!!! keep it going!...

Laura: Ireland - I just wrote in to tell you that i am huge huge fan of home and away as so is 3/4 of the irish population! The 1/4 that does'nt either hasnt a tv or does'nt speak english! I was so devaststed to hear that sally was leaving, i love her and she is a real role model for children and teenagers, shes always come across as very respectful and seems very down to earth in all interviews, and does'nt go out getting drunk and partying everynight!...When i was younger i never used to stop crying until i heard and watched home and away, so my mum recorded home and away and every time i was in a mood or i was cranky shed put that on and i used to laugh away not knowing that it was the same episode i was watching over and over!..I was a huge brad and sally fan and i was so mad that you split them up! My dream wars always to go over to australia and meet the cast but mostly kate ritchie but i guess thats not going to happen now!:( Ive got some of their autographs from my friends and relatived that have been there but i have never met them in person! Are any of the home and away characters or ex-characters going to be in a panto in ireland any time soon? It would go down very well and there would be alot of fans willing to go! Or is anyone preforming in england anytime soon? Home and away an rud is fear ar an telifis ( it means home and away is the best thing on tv) in irish of course!

Hari: Chennai, India - Actually, I have lived in Australia - in both the rival cities Sydney and Melbourne - which got me caught to the 'Home and Away' drama. To an international like myself, it gives a great idea of the unique aussie lifestyle. It's great to have 'Home and Away' in India... Hope the fans increase and u keeping rocking!!!

Evelin: Estonia - Hello everyone in "Home and Away"! I just wanted to say that this TV-serial "Home and Away" is very popular in Estonia. And this is my favourite series. Wish success! Con Amore.

Mel: Netherlands - We don't get Home and Away here so thankfully my wonderful Mum has video taped most of the episodes and posted them to me each month! I really could not have gotten by without them. One of the main reasons I love Home and Away is not only the great actors and exciting storyline but also it reminds me of home and our beautiful golden beaches and bright sunny days. I can hardly believe that Sally is leaving. She has done an amazing job and will be missed by everyone who watches the show. I must agree with everyone else on this blog and say that Martha and Jack must get back together. Congratulations to both of them for a fabulous year as I would have to say they have both shone. If it's allowed I would like to offer the video tapes to someone who is in Europe and would like to see most of the episodes over the past six months. As much as I would love to keep them and watch them over and over it would be nice to pass them onto someone else to enjoy...you can email me at positiv1@gmail.com Happy New Year and Looking forward to many more exciting episodes in 2008! :)

Sarah: Belgium - I just LOVE H&A! We are a few years behind, Jack and Martha are married last week. So it's really exciting but I also follow the new episodes on the internet so I already know what's gonna happen but still I watch it every day! And I hope that Martha and Jack are going back together even now he married Sam! Jack and Martha are the perfect couple. X I love the show and I love Australia!!

Mary: Ireland: Hey i just want to say how amazing your show is and how good all the actors are! Your show is by far the best on irish tv and all my friends LOVE it!! As we're a few months behind we're up to the point where Tam arrives...... I luv jack and martha! Everyone wants them to be together. EVERYONE!!!!! The writers just have to put them back together again. PLEASE DO!!! Im sad that Kate is leaving but she has done a fantastic job. We'll miss her tons!

Alisha: (New Zealand) I Luv ur show each time i miss it i watch the 'omnibus'. Jack Holden, he is meant 2 be with Martha? But I guess Jack didn't want to break poor Rory's heart but.... I think the show won't be right without BRAD and SALLY ..Thankfully ur keepin' COLLEEN in the show because there issum thin' bout her that just makes the show feel good and its just that she talks too much and she has so much passion for the show. UR SHOW ROCKS ILL BE WATCHIN IT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE AND JACK AND MARTHA SALLY AND BRAD R MY ALL TIME FAVS BUT ESP JACK! HOME AND AWAY RULZ! :)

Laura: (England) I'd just like to say that I am really looking forward to seeing Amy Mizzi (Kit Hunter) in my local pantomime this December in Aladdin at the Civic Theatre in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, Northern England. Think she's a really good actress and I wish her the best of luck and hope she enjoys her time over here. P.S Keep up the excellent work Home and Away - you're great!

Paul O'Brien is in Aladdin too. I'm not sure if it's the same theatre.

Carol: Hi there, how are you?? I was just wondering is it possible to meet Alf Stewart played by Ray Meagher!!! can you catch him filming on Palm Beach? Im from Ireland and Im backpacking for a year, will be in Australia until the end of April and I have been a HUGE fan since I was a kid!!! Home and Away is soooooooooooo popular in Ireland and everyone just loves Alf!! he's a real typical Aussie and would give anything to say Hello and get a picture taken with him!! I know ye proberly get so many emails with requests like this but it would really make my year!!! So can you please look in to it for me??? I would be go grateful and SO HAPPY!!!

We cannot organise a meeting for you I'm afraid or inform you of the shooting schedule, but if you go to Palm Beach when you come to Sydney you might be lucky to see them shooting and meet Alf in person. Good luck.

John, Dublin: kate i am so sad that you are leaving the show i have watched the show from day one and i am going to miss you dearly when you go (I hope they dont kill you off) then maybe some day you can come back to the bay and be part of the best soap i have ever watched. Good luck in whatever you do next and i shall look out and hope the fans in Ireland get to see what you do next.

Veronica, Norway: I wach Home & Away every day. A big fan. Now we have come to where Flynn is dying. I must say I have been angry, been crying and laughing through many episodes. It's exiting. My biggest dream is to come to Australia. You are all doing a good job and keep on doing it.

Kiara: Hey sally, your blog is great but thats not what i am here to talk about, i wanted to ask if u were really leaving, are you? Sally i love you, you are my favourite person from home and away you cant leave please...I know its probably a personal reason you are leaving, or is it because you have had enough of home and away, either way can you not share it with your fans, share it with me. I know its alot to ask but can you think about staying with channel seven, home and away. Other then that your blog is great, your great. Good luck. Lots of Love

60+ Grandmother...: We are currently on holidays in the United States, we have been here for 5-1/2 weeks, and we have so missed the shows, what a pity it is not shown here, we will be home in 2 weeks, but in the meantime I am catching up with Sally's Blog...boy she does a good job blogging...lol...Miss you Home and Away.

Danielle, Israel: I just want to say that i'm so addicted to "home and away"... here in Israel it's only 2005 season.. just after Dan almost broke up from Leah... I really love this show (bought dvd recorder only because i'm so addicted)..., i just can't wait to see what is going to happen at the next seasons.

Deb, Rach and Jacci Kelly, Turkey: I just wanted to say thank you for Sally's Blog, we have watched home and away since the beginning. We moved to Ankara, Turkey in April this year and every Saturday morning we check out the blog to see what has happened in Summer Bay. My girls are a bit homesick and I think it helps. Keep up the good work

Dominique: Hey there Aussies!!! This is Belgium calling! My name is Dominique, I'm 21yrs old and I'm a huuuuuuuuge fan of the show!!!! My sister started watching it from the very beginning and I watched it then too(even though I was only 3 yrs old but back then we didn't have any Belgian channels so we only could watch English talking shows) so I still remember our Sally being an 8 year old and Bobby and Michael and all those people!!! After a few years my sister stopped watching because she was too busy with high school so we didn't watch it back then but sometimes we did watch some episodes just to catch up. About more then 5 years ago I started watching it again on a daily basis (I think I started watching it when Becky & Nick just came to the bay) so from then on I haven't missed a single episode and since about 2 or 3 years my mom is watching it with me too so we watch it every single day!!! I know we're 1 yr and 1/2 behind the Aussies but I get the newsletter every monday so it's cool to actually catch up with the Aussies too!!! We are now where Ric just got a job at the garage and where Dom just threw that liquid over his legs and he passed out at home so today(monday) we'll see how Belle finds him and makes him go to the doctor. Peter is also keeping behind information about the search for Josh's murderer so I really want to know who that TT person is. I'm also wondering how the other cast members are doing that left the show!!!! I know Ryan Kwanten(Vinnie) and Chris Egan are in the US doing movies(I saw Chris in Eragon and Ryan in Summerland) but how are the others doing??? I also really hate the fact that Kate is leaving the show as she was(together with Ray) THE ones that are the center of the show!!! But I understand that she wants to do something else rather then always being recognized as Sally from H&A so I wish her all the luck in her future projects!!!! Keep up the great work because H&A is one of my favorite shows and I can't live without it anymore!!!I hope one day I'll be able to go to Australia and visit the cast members!!!

Amanda: Hey there! I’m Amanda and I live in Birmingham. Big fan! Just a quick question – when Sally leaves, will someone else be taking over her diary duties? I don’t want to miss out on anything!! I do think Leah would be a good candidate as her and Sally have very similar personalities! Keep us updated!

The blog section will be taken over by another cast member when Sally leaves. Leah would make a good candidate, but the decision is not made yet as to who will write it.

Hannah: Hi I just wanted to say how much home and away rocks it beats all the other English soaps as it has such amazing storylines and extremely talented actors. I love every single character especially RIC as he is so good lucking!!!! I always read the website to find out whats going to happen and I love all the features on your website its much better than the English version. I think you need some English actors to come into home and away like home and away actors have come into English soaps. Anyway I just think home and away is amazing and the actors should come over to the UK more often.

Claire: i live in england and i love the show, i watch home and away during the day and i also watch the home and away early years. my fav cast members are Ric, Sally,Brad, Jack and mattie. I started watching it when it was on itv, then when it changed to channel 5 i stopped as i couldn't get it, but i have been watching it for the last 2 years and have not missed an episode. I am sorry to hear that Kate Ritchie is leaving, good luck to her and best wishes, she will be sadly missed. can i ask why she is leaving and what is she going to do?

Kate will be having a holiday and then she will decide what she wants to do.

Sue Pass: Hi there - I'm from Nottingham, England and we have been on holiday so have not yet had the chance to say how sorry I am that Kate Ritchie is leaving - Home and Away will not be the same without her. Kate is a super actress and I would like to wish her well in whatever she does in the future. I hope the 'door is being left open' should she wish to return - perhaps like Pippa senior does, from time to time.

Jodie, England: Love the show, I;ve watched it since it began- please, please, please bring Dr Hugh back and get Martha & Jack back together, they are fab couples and should be back together!!

Laura: Hi, i live in england and i just want to say how much i love home and away! it's one of the best things on tv! even though i'm in england, and were ages behind u in oz, i always read on the website what's happening in australia at the mo. My favourite characters are Martha, Jack, Mattie and Ric. I know everybody keeps on saying this but please please please can Martha and Jack get bck together!!! they were such a gud couple and obviously still love each other, and hopefully if everybody says it enough the producers might listen and put them bck together! Please! Also i want to say how gud Mark Furze was on Soap Star superstar, I know it was ages ago now but he was really gud, and I think he shud of won! I was also sad to hear Kate Ritchie was leaving :( But want to wish her all the best for the future :) and hope she gets a gud exit storyline, she deserves it. I hav just recently started university and unfortunately don't get to watch home and away during the week, but i do get to catch the omnibus on a weekend when i go home! and also stay up to date through both this and the english website. Finally i want to say to the cast keep up the excellent work and i look forward to lots more great storylines, involving Jack and Martha in particular! Bye! lv laura xx

Annelies: Belgium calling! I just LOVE home and away. It makes me wanna jump on to a plane and just fly to summer bay...One day I'll visit that beach, I'm sure! :-) Over here, we are at the point of Josh West's death. Anyway, keep on making new episodes for this great show! Looking forward to it!

Jeanne: I work all day and have very little time to myself, but, I make time to sit and watch H & A. I'm so troubled by the Hugh & Rachel episodes. Rachel should definitely be with Hugh because they're meant to be, same education, same age, friends, and let's face it Hugh (Rodger Corser), is one of the most handsome, sexiest men I've seen in a long time. Please bring him back from South Africa to be with Rachel. Scenes have been going through my head of how and when they should meet again, but of course, as true love never runs smooth, it should be an eventful build-up to them finally getting together, i.e. a medical seminar in the city that they're both invited to, although they both don't know the other is there.

Jilson: i really like jessica tovey, she is a really beautful girl, i am a big home and way fan, i watch every day. i am dutch, but I live in manchester now, because of my studies. i wish jessica good luck in future.

Claire: Hey I’m Claire from Cape Town South Africa. Have been watching your show for almost 2 years now. I started out being the only one in the family to watch it, and now my mom and sister love it too! Keep up the good work love your South African fan.

Tsach: i from Israel, i just want to say i love your show since i was a little, i watch most of the episodes and now I'm 28 so you can guess how many episodes i have seen and home and away its one of the reason i fall in love in the Aussie people and six years ago i even travel in Australia but the important thing keep doing this amazing show

Karen: Hi I just wanted to say how much I adore watching home and away, it is with out a doubt my favorite tv soap.Of course here in the UK we a far behind but that's the beauty of the internet you can look up future episodes.I am a forty four year old single mum and one month away from becoming a registered foster carer. Some of the story lines have been a great help for future reference. I have really enjoyed the episodes involving Naomi Preston and Lucas only because it has given Rhys Wakefeild the chance to show what a great young actor he is and lets hope he gets a chance to star in a hollywood blockbuster which I'm sure he will. There are of course many great actors in the show and it's great to see them visiting the UK,London is a fantastic place but don't forget to visit the countryside down here in Devon we also have some great beaches. I will keep a close eye on more story lines involving fostering and maybe give the writers a new script on my own experiences in fostering watch this space.Keep up the good work to all actors and crew.Karenxxxxxxx

Thanks Karen...Yes Rhys is a good actor and has already landed a role in a feature film called 'The Black Balloon' which will be released in September in Australia. Let us know how you go as a foster mum, hopefully the kids will enjoy Home and Away too! - Tania
