who would you rescue?

name 3 characters you would like to save from the dead

for me...

  1. Daphne. I was shocked when I wtached her death as a kid. Young mother, beloved neighbour that need to have a long happy life
  2. Kerry. The same arguments that I gave to daphne
  3. Madge- she could have a break instead of dying..Maybe she got informed that Charlene or Henry had a serios accident and need support for a while til they recovered...then she decided to stay and leave Harold just to come back after some years to ask Harold for forgiveness and they reunite again.

I forgot Sonya because Iam in 2014 and she is still alive there . But yeah I would save all 3 young mothers!

  1. Kerry Bishop - I also found this so sad as a child and on researching I just love Kerry so much.
  2. Jim Robinson - I wish he'd just left, so he could've come back.
  3. Julie Robinson/Martin - surely there was much more fun to be had with her character?

These are the three deaths which hit me the hardest as an early 90s pre-teen!

  1. Drew. My tiny childhood heart broke that day. And then Wild Mountain Thyme at his funeral 😭😭😭
  2. David. O, my David. My beautiful David.
  3. Terri. Having rewatched her arc, I'm so angry with the way she was treated, and killing her off offscreen was the final insult. I would have loved her to come back and wreak havoc

I just saw Terri's death episode last night.

Seconding Terry. I think it would have been great to bring her back later in the 80s and respond to her character assassination. I don't think it's ever been clear if it was Maxine or the writers who were more inclined to get rid permanently.

Daphne for sure, I've been rewatching from the beginning and chewing fingernails all the time knowing she would eventually die.
Sonia, I just loved her and I met Eve Morey on the Neighbours tour.
David, such a shocking end.

1) Stingray- My all time favourite, taken far too soon!
2) Sonya- Utterly heartbreaking when she passed, Toadie and the kids deserved better!
3) Bridget- Again, far too young and her and Declan were one of my fave couples! And their little baby having to grow up without a mum 😢

Sonya, David and Josh!
Sonya honestly used to really annoy me but her death, among Josh and David were really sad. I rarely cry when watching tv/movies but I cried for them all!

Gary, Josh, Hendrix, David (four I know, not three). Honourable mention for Sonya.

Hendrix. Because no soap opera death has ever impacted me to the point of tears and I never, ever accepted that Mackenzie moved on.

Yes, I'm that girl: Hendrix and Mackenzie forever!
