It gets to a really critical point 47 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: where they drown in us. 48 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 4: I love that. 49 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 3: I love that, isn't it?

She just feels safe now she knows 57 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 2: it's out of love. And Hue's had a go at 58 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 2: her and he's come home from school and he's all grumpy, 59 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: and now she's turned that into a positive. 60 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 3: I thought was weird. 61 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 4: You've got to go and have a listen to this podcast. 62 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 4: Excuse me thirty six months.

But the thing that they do 65 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 4: is all they want to do when they get home 66 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 4: is fight and play. 67 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,799 Speaker 3: With their doodles. 68 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 4: Right, that's what boys want to do. And why that 69 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 4: is is because it's what they can't do at school. 70 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 4: So when they get home, all they want to do, 71 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 4: Like Maggie's talking about the attitude they give their parents 72 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 4: because at school, they're not allowed to carry that attitude 73 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 4: and they're not allowed to fight at school, and they're not. 74 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: Allowed to play with their doodle at school. 75 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 5: And also they've seen, they've seen what their dad does 76 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 5: when he's at home and mode monkey. 77 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 4: See monkey do so when they arrive home and I'm 78 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 4: just on the couch just having. 79 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 6: A little you're mad if you don't fiddle. 80 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 2: Anything around school. 81 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just they treat us very badly. 82 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: I need to play this young girl, she's around about 83 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 2: eight years of age.

But I decided that 170 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 6: I would start putting in some irenisms. That's what they've become. 171 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 6: And in fact, my mom and dad spoke like that 172 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 6: and so I kind of I didn't have to go 173 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 6: looking for it. I'll still say things to someone in 174 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 6: the younger person in the cast and they'll look at 175 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 6: me like I'm thin and go what does that mean? 176 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 5: You know? 177 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 6: And I'm like you for real because it's part of 178 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 6: me out. 179 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 3: We don't want you to go. 180 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 4: And I know when the announcement was made, Australia threw 181 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 4: the hands in the air and said, what have we 182 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 4: got to live for now? When it comes to the 183 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 4: departure of Irene, how. 184 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 7: Is she going out? 185 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 3: Do you get to choose that? And what are some 186 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 3: of the ideas throwing around? 187 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 6: Yes, well, my initial thought was, can maybe she can 188 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 6: just get hit by a bus outside the diner because 189 00:08:56,160 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 6: it's quick, it's done, and I don't know, maybe she's 190 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 6: not really dead. And then at the funeral she's let 191 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 6: me out out flipping it. 192 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 9: Is what everyone walks over to you and just sinks 193 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 9: the booty in just to see if you And then 194 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 9: what about blow up a few gas bottles or something 195 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 9: at the caravan pires we've. 196 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 6: Done that, we've done or what do you do differently? Well, 197 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 6: I can. I just tell you that I had an 198 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 6: idea when I decided that the time was right, I 199 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 6: had this idea. But what I think it's a terrific storyline. 200 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 6: And I went to the writers and normally they're like, 201 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 6: quick lock the door, she comes. Last time she came, 202 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 6: she wanted Irene to get abducted by aliens. 203 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 8: It's just. 204 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 6: It's not a valid storyline. But this time they heard 205 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 6: me out and they went, that's great. In all these years, 206 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 6: I should have been in the writing department. 207 00:09:55,280 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 3: No, but they're run with do you have to though? 208 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: Like or can you leave Summer Bay? 209 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 6: Well, this is what I can't tell you. You see, 210 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 6: because it is very the storyline, and once you get 211 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 6: into the storyline you'll understand why. But I can't say 212 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 6: anything because you know, we want people to watch and 213 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 6: we want people to be invested in iron story, and 214 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 6: God willing they were, they will be. And I think 215 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 6: I think it's a valid storyline. I think it's very pertinent, 216 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 6: and I think people will travel the journey. 217 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 2: Could could just quickly could remember neighbors, Madge came back 218 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 2: as a ghost. 219 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 3: I mean, could like kiel you. 220 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 1: Off and. 221 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 6: I come back like I could morph through the white 222 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 6: goods like Bobby did back in the day when Alsa 223 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:55,599 Speaker 6: was having issues and Bobby morphed through the white I 224 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 6: mean that she did, She absolutely did. But no, it's 225 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 6: been done. That's just we can't go back. 226 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 3: Sorry, Lynn, can I can? I ask? Like you talk? 227 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 4: He talks about Neighbors there in the great marathon that 228 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 4: has been Neighbors, Home and Away, right and Neighbors has 229 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 4: it's gone that it came back, and I think it's 230 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 4: stopped again, gone again, it's gone again. 231 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 6: But not I think they're still filming up until in 232 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 6: the middle. 233 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 4: Do you put Home and Away success down to look 234 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 4: like why is it the ultimate? 235 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 6: I think it's got primarily to do with the writing. 236 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 6: Then I think it's got to do with their their 237 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 6: turnover of characters. But they're hanging on to to poor 238 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 6: characters or older characters and letting the young ones come 239 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 6: and go. They've gone a bit, you know, off piece 240 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 6: a couple of times. I think Neighbors away with storylines, 241 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 6: But then the very clever writers have brought it back, 242 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 6: and I think that the characters that they get on 243 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 6: the show, you know, a new generation of people or 244 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 6: even an old generation who have come back to the 245 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 6: show will get invested in them. So I think it's 246 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 6: a great mixture of the cleverness of the writers and 247 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 6: of the casting and and all of those things, and 248 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 6: hanging on two core characters. 249 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: Is there a big goodbye party? I mean with Channel sevens, 250 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: it'll be at a fish and chip shop. 251 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 3: At a beach. 252 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 6: I can hear you. Look there we are. They are 253 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 6: throwing me a shindy. They they are, and I'm very excited. 254 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,959 Speaker 6: Now obviously I can't say when and where, otherwise we'll have, 255 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 6: you know, another trive or ten people turning up, and 256 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 6: we can't have that. Now they're throwing me a bit 257 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 6: of a shindy, which is lovely because normally we do 258 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 6: it on set. But they've decided not to do it 259 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 6: from the last scene because you know, I can talk 260 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 6: under wet concrete. The people who get up and talk 261 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 6: and say goodbye to me, they can talk under wet concrete, 262 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 6: will be there till, you know, next Christmas. So they've 263 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 6: decided to do it on the night and there'll still 264 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 6: be people come. 265 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 4: Down kind invite us, and of course Richard, who's not 266 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 4: here right now, she will be there I loved. She'll 267 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 4: get involved, will be there. We might shoot a bit 268 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 4: of behind the scenes stuff for Lind's wrap party, a 269 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 4: couple of grogs you think fits. 270 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 3: You'll have a bit more time to go watch the 271 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: Swanees now as well. 272 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 6: Absolutely will because I can't go this Saturday because we're 273 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 6: filming on Saturday. 274 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 3: That's why she's the best. 275 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 6: I'm so disappointed because it's a rematch, isn't it of 276 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 6: the Grand Final, which we will say. Nothing that's not 277 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 6: a good storyline, doesn't talk about the GFS. 278 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 3: Football team dying. 279 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 2: I don't know what you're more nervous about finishing up 280 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 2: on Summer Bay or the game this weekend.
