[@aaronpeaty6619]

i think it be good if selina and steven made a return to home and away in 2023 and was played by the OG character's also people's jaw's would drop that they return with there children to the bay and the story line be to help the kid's with there problem it would fit the show nicely

Selina so beautiful, she was my teen crush x

Wow. I have zero recollection of this episode/storyline!! Also, the guy who would go on to play Nick Platt on Corrie playing Selina's potential love interest!

All the episodes up until around 1995 on dailymotion. Wish it went to around 2001. That's when people say the show went down and others also say it kinda "ended" then...

[@Irishgui83]

Lol true for me too. It got too boring for me from then on so I stopped watching and haven't dipped back in since. Hard to believe that's a longer time frame between then and now than there time frame between the shows launch to 2001!

Oh my God, Jeff played by Ben Price is in a British Soap Coronation Street for over 11 years. He is the third actor to play Nick Tilsly.

[@SummerBayJournal]

Whilst I wil l say I never really took to him as Nick, at least his acting improved since this H&A ep!

[@thebigloc1]

@@SummerBayJournal I always felt he was too old looking to be playing Nick who would be 42 in December. When he first rocked up he looked 42 not the 30 he was meant to be.

[@SummerBayJournal]

@@thebigloc1 I agree he was too old and just too different. Very serious and straight laced. Whereas the previous actor played him like a bit more gormless. But either way his acting was better than it was in this episode of H&A lol

For you, when do the early years of home and away end? When did you find it beginning to become not as good as it used to be?

[@SummerBayJournal]

I began to find it not as good when The Sutherlands arrived and the writing seemed to get dumbed down around 2001. I hung in for a few more years but eventually gave up in 2010

[@thebigloc1]

@@SummerBayJournal I never took to them either and for a few years it was not great but I stuck in there and it actually good the last few years.

[@PatrickVianello-o]

I'll always say if Tom remained the show would have been good for a LOT longer. Alf (though he's even still there now in 2022!!!) helped but Tom I believe was a core. Michael was a good actor (and perhaps if Dennis just replaced Tom instead of being Michael it would have been fine) but in my opinion he just didn't fit into Tom's "shoes" so to speak. If Tom was the one who drowned in 1996 it would have been FAAR more dramatic. For one Steven would have had faaar more emotion (obviously since he never really knew Michael) amongst a few others

[@Irishgui83]

@@PatrickVianello-o alf is still in Home & Away?? I thought he retired years ago. Wow

[@67ktb]

@@PatrickVianello-o In terms of what we saw on screen in early 91-mid 95, Michael and Steven's relationship didn't receive known development, but Michael was in Steven's life nearly twice as long as Tom was and we assume that Steven came home from uni for holidays or Pippa, Michael, Sally, etc. went to visit him and take some meatloaf, although we didn't see it. When Steven was charged with Dodge's "murder", Michael was the one who sorted out bail. Although the drinks were mostly in Shane's honour for Angel being pregnant, Steven was involved when Michael and Alf took them out for celebratory drinks. Even if it was less "foster father and son" because Steven was just turning 18 and going away to uni as Pippa and Michael got together, they were probably friends though. As much as I believe that Steven needed Tom when he was going through his HSC and the stuff with Jennifer, I believe that he would have needed Michael (or maybe more Tom seeing as Michael didn't really have a great track record with this kind of thing, e.g. Sophie and David, Finn and Randy) when everything blew up over his affair with Selina's. By that time, Michael is dead, Shane is dead, he's lost the respect and friendship with Don, and later on in 1996 before he packs up and leaves, there are also issues between him and both Travis and Jesse. I've never really bought a relationship between Steven and Alf, but I think Michael is another loss of a male friend or father figure when he needed it more than ever.
