I can remember before it got moved to tea time, whenever someone was off sick from school, they got interrogated on their return as to what happened on Neighbours etc.

Thems were the best days on Neighbours - Scott, Charlene, Bouncer, Daphne, Mark Little (ex Brighton resident!), Madge, Harold. The days when they had proper characters. Used to love it, home from school and a bit of Neighbours.

The Argus website is saying that she lived in Shoreham.
Did anyone know her?

From the Argus:
"The star, who was living in Shoreham, landed her most famous role, as busybody Mrs Mangel in Neighbours, in 1986.
The actress became an overnight star in the soap but her role was so convincing that she received abuse from viewers, and decided to leave Neighbours after two years.
Gray is said to have moved back to West Sussex after leaving Neighbours."

Reminds me a bit of Roy Hodgson, with a bit of slap on.

Remember making her coffee when I was working in a dept store in Melbourne when I was backpacking round oz in 2001. Refused autographs though.

Do you remember the episode where Daphne died? She woke up from the coma just to say goodbye to Des before passing away....................It brings a tear to my eye even now after all these years.

He recovered by getting it on with Jane, I seem to recall though.

Apparently the funeral is on Monday at 1.30.
And will be repeated again at 5.30.

Definitely. Back in the day, Neighbours was essential viewing when [MENTION=22473]mac04[/MENTION] and I used to go back to a mate's house at lunch break when we were at Worthing Sixth Form College. I'm pretty sure that Daphne also has the unusual record of have given birth on a TV show whilst still wearing tights.
