Or Ryan Kwanten who played Vinnie who also left about two years ago.? He's now an actor on the US show 'Summerland' where he plays an Aussie surfer.

Thats the one!....do you know how how left the soap?

Sent to jail on a fraud charge, after his father had (without him really knowing what was going on) got him involved in some rather shady business. He was arrested just after VJ was born, left the soap a few weeks into the next year (after a few visits he told Leah he didn't want her seeing him in prison any more) and was finally killed off in an off-screen fire at the prison (in true soap style) on VJ's first birthday).


Thanks very much to everyone who helped! Smile

Can this soap come up with any more bizarre story lines???????
I don't think they're bizarre, just a tad OTT. I'm looking forward to the next three months as we see the Psycho Sarah storyline play out - H&A's very own Richard Hillman, if you will! Very Happy

I am taking a guess that Channel 5 will catch up with RTE during the year and that then the 2 channels will show home and away on same day, either channels have nothing to loose viewers wise as channel 5 is not avaliable in the South of Ireland. Us northern viewers will just be left with a choice of what channel to watch it on, well those of us that have the choice.

Plotwise, is it only me that thinks it odd that they've given Kirsty such a major plotline hardly five minutes after Jade left, without making some effort to have even a brief appearance by her? And yes, I know she was mentioned in passing by Rhys.

I do agree it's odd that Jade hasn't hurried home to see her seriously-ill 'sister'. However, she does make a brief reappearance next week.

I haven't seen next week's episodes, but with Laura still around it would the perfect time for Jade and Laura to interact, and help them both to come to terms with their identity.

We'll probably go ahead of RTE this year... unless they are dileberately trying to pull it back to Five's level.

It might stop spoilerage to borderline viewers though, and what with probably one of the biggest storylines ever about to unfold it seems a good time to do that.

I think they have to as Five when the bought the rights and ITV wouldnt release it for a year, five tried to do something similar to RTE. Home and Away was of air for few months on RTE when that happened as i think there was a court case over it. But the 2 channels most of came to an agreement.
I dont know if this is still the case but when RTE was introduced to cabel tv in Belfast TV scenes went blank when H&A was on duw to fives in security.

Anyone notice the new David Callaghan tonight?

Don't like the new actor much, I felt the one from Dani's trial was more powerfully acted.

I was wondering if it was a new actor, but with my memory I couldn't be sure.

He's faniliar though, has he been in Neighbours/Prisoner?!

Incidentally I missed a couple of episodes last week; has Tash's real father been revealed to the viewer? If so then could someone tell me who it is? If not then I'm not after a spoiler!

No, the viewer doesn't know yet. Tasha hasn't told anyone, and Duncan found out by reading the letter.
