Couch - check
TV - check
VCR - check
Video - check
Flatmate - check
Duct tape - check
Hmmmm, not sure that she'd appreciate the duct tape part
LMAO!
Yay - it's back tomorrow night!!!
I missed it last week. :|
I went to bed early cos I was sick, and I set my tape but didn't check the channel cos my flatmate was watching something else. I pressed '2' twice, just to make sure it was on the right channel, but I must've done it too close together and taped channel 22 - which is a blue screen cos it's nothing. :S
Don't panic - it wasn't on last week!
"Production break" I think they call it 
Oh great! That's okay then. lol I thought the ads were the same for this week and I was like ??? but just before I clicked to come in here and read the one message, I thought 'Ohhhh it's gonna tell me there was a production break and it wasn't on last week' cos I just remembered Idolbabe said something about that. I don't remember them saying it last week though. lol
We all missed it!
another break next week from MD why are they always having production breaks.
Noooooooooo :cry: Alex you weren't supposed to DO that!!!!
Oh man! I thought up till now I actually was trying to like Fiona ... but now, she's too spiteful and malicious - and she's gotta go! 
LOL
I didn't think Alex would actually go ahead with it!:( Fiona's really showing the nasty side of herself now!: Now we have reason to think she's a horrible person- before I thought it was just personal, must have seen something in her though!
Do love Kate though!
Here here!! - I was like. . . . . .. AHHHHH you Biarch!!!
how is he going to feel when when he learns she aint pregnant.
poor stevie
Poor Alex
Will there be a wedding tonight ... or won't there??!!
What do you think?
Personally I think it would be too cheesy and predictable for Stevie to break up Alex and Fi's ceremony ... much as I want it to be HER marrying Alex! One things for sure, it's going to be a GREAT show anyway!!
I hope someone stops it in time
ok better shut up now - I've seen what happens 
You be quiet!
LOL
:-#
I just hope something happens to make Alex see through Fiona.
I won't get to see it until Saturday - won't look here to find out though!
Yeah like getting shot through the stomach with a cannon like on Death Becomes Her.
I think that's what happened...haven't seen that movie for a while.
Well I wouldn't go quite that far! Just banishing her back to the city for good would be enough - before they say 'I do'.
hehe Have you not seen that movie? Goldie Hawn takes some sort of immortality potion and gets shot through the stomach and is walking around with a gaping whole in her middle. Definitely big enough to see through.
No I haven't. But after that last episode, think yes, maybe that is what Fiona deserves. Then Alex could see she's hasn't got a baby there!
LOL Another good point.
Stupid Fi, she makes me want to throw rocks.
I hope they dont get married. :S
Darn it - I posted my message twice cause my webpage timed out on me so I didn't know it had posted my original message ... now I look silly for double posting :cry:
Well, something tells me she's definitely hiding something about her past ... and I don't like it when people can't be totally honest, particularly with someone they purport to love!
I join you in your annoyance at Fi, Blah! 
Poor Jodi again, trying so hard, but just not getting things right again. So glad it all worked out right in the end!:) Showed what team they all are - and how Fiona has no idea how things are! Thank goodness Alex did go to help his mates! Fiona just want to change him - and now lying to him!
Never thought it would actually come to the wedding the way things have been going. Well I wonder if it would have if Fiona hadn't lied. Will they say "I do"? Really hope something stops them - well not something too bad!
I caught up with one week on tape, still haven't seen last week's on tape and missed last night as I was out. I just remembered what the ad for it was too. :| So what happened last night?
Oh my gosh, last night's episode was fantastic!!!
Where do I begin?
It all started with Jodi stuffing up the first order for Gungellan Fresh to go to Tokyo and they herded up 500 unshorn sheep ... so they eventually managed to persuade the japanese to send another truck the next morning at 9.00! Which meant shearing 500 sheep in less than a day!
Oh, then Kevin turned up! :| And Jodi eventually told him that Jack was actually her dad, but then it transpired later that actually he already knew that cause he'd already read the book before arriving and he was just coming round to scab again
So Jodi sent him packing ... again ... at the end of the show!
Fiona's mum turned up LOL and Alex started getting all these new surprises about family Christmas holidays, and some apartment in the city she'd found for them, not to mention the old grandchildren topic of course!
Oh, the funniest bit of the whole show was when there was a storm coming (of course!) except they couldn't get all the remaining sheep to be shorn under cover ... so Patrick raced over to Killarney and asked Alex if they could borrow the wedding marquee, which had just turned up!!! LMAO at that - imagine the smell during the ceremony!
So at the end of the show, she played the ultimate blackmail card ... after asking if he still wanted to marry her, and he made all the excuses, blah, blah, and then she goes, something like "I'm pregnant." Which we all know, of course, can not possibly be true but of course she'll say anything now to get him, won't she?! I tell you - I was sooooo angry when she did that to him ... it would have to be the worst thing you can do to a guy, wouldn't it?!! 
Oh, and Patrick's doing the wedding photography now, cause Kate saw some landscapes he had been doing and then the original photographer had a heart attack and was in hospital so couldn't do it, so Pat was "practicing" his portrait shots, taking photos of everyone for the rest of an episode ... including a cosy, huggy one of Alex and Stevie when he turned up to help them shear the rest of the sheep! And of course Fiona saw that, didn't she?!
Um, what else happened? Can anyone else fill in the blanks?
Thank you very muchly.
You're welcome
That was so well written!
Thanks Loyal
I'm in shock after that episode tonight!!!
I honestly cannot believe Fi has resorted to blackmail to keep Alex's attention!!! :| What did the rest of you think of the show tonight, anyway?!
Will it be I do next week. hope stevie gets there in time.
So ... after tonight's episode, will Alex and Fiona still be engaged??!!!
Hope so
I have a feeling the writers are going to leave us hanging on some crucial moment
Did you all know that Aaron is actually going out with Michelle, the girl who plays Fiona, in real life?! No wonder they're acting is so convincing, huh?!
And also she's a Kiwi chick too 
Takes New Zealanders to make the show what it is of course 
LOL
How's the new job going BIMI?
Boring this week, cause I don't have enough to do
But overall, it's great! 
At last, got to report back on the moving episode of Harry being buried and Alex finding out so much unexpected about his past.
Finally - Alex gets to know his dad and understand so much about him and what made him tick - too late! :( That was what was so sad, but also sort of happy that he can now move on ahead, respecting his dad's achievements! :)
What a totally unexpected end, that Harry was someone to feel sorry for, how he overcame a sad childhood and made something of himself. Guess he never grew up with love, so didn't know how to give it. Think Sandra was probably the only person who loved him - cause I think she really did/does!
So now it looks like Alex finds how much Stevie means to him! Fiona's been good to him and tried to be understanding, but just not right for him.
Read in the TV Guide who's not back next series!
Sadly, I don't think Sandra actually did love Harry ... I have a feeling she's only hanging around in case she still gets something in his will. I mean, they never ACTUALLY got divorced, did they, so theoretically she's still his wife ... darn it
Don't you! I've thought that she does really care for Harry.
Well, I have to say not as many tears as I thought last night ;) What did the rest of you think of the episode?
Shock more than tears for me
I never saw that coming, Harry Ryan turning out to be another person altogether, and adopted too. I'm adopted too, and even *I* never saw that coming. What a shocker for the whole family come to that, finding out that the Ryan dynasty was a whole heap of lies.
Wonder what will happen next time?
Hope you've all got your tissues handy for tonight's episode!!! ;) I can almost guarantee I'm going to cry at some point, anyway LOL
Just as well I bought a new box of tissues the other day, I certainly will probably start as it looks like an episode full of emotions this time. :cry: I always tuck up into my nightie and brand new, gorgeous red, zippered polar fleece dressing gown, after a busy day of document formatting for the lady I'm doing it for who is from Wellington when McLeod's Daughters is on.
Now there's an image I didn't really want!
heh heh heh
Just shake what ya mumma gave you, get on it.
Red is a cool colour
Thanks for that Scap.
