Ric turned 18 a while back, I can't remmeber how long ago that was now.

Didn't Ric have his 20th birthday just recently? He's either 19 or 20 now anyway. Tony is about 41 I think, as they said something about him being 40 when Beth was still around. I remember everyone saying that it was stupid, as he has a son in his early-mid twenties! I think Jack is about 24.

I don't think it's stupid that Tony's 41 and Jack is in his early-mid twenties. It just means Tony was really young when Jack was born. It's not really unrealistic either. It reminds me of the Peter & Drew storyline.

But Drew was the result of a teenage pregnancy, whereas Tony was supposedly married and settled down when Jack was born. Which would mean he got married at about 16! I suppose it's plausible at a stretch, but at the very least he'd have to have been 17 or 18 when Jack was born.

Yeah I agree he had to be around that age, which can happen I guess. I don't think the writers realise that us lot remember/notice these things. :lol:

I think Michael was around 20 in 2005 when he arrived because he was a friend of Dylan Russell's who would have been that age then, and he had trained as a nurse if I remember correctly, so he'd be 23 now.

Martha was born on the show in September 1988, which would make her 19 now, but the character was aged by 18 months in 2005 to join the show to fill the void left by Dani Sutherland, they needed another young woman, not a teen. So Martha will be 21 next month, which is her new age, not her original one. She was 19 when she married Jack.

Annie is 14, she was 13 when she arrived, but she turned 14 soon after. She seems younger because she was kept back a year in school and her best friend Rory is only 12.

I remember Geoff saying his birthday was April 26th too, as its the same as a friend of mine.

Ric is definitely 20, he just had his birthday party. I didn't know Drew was younger than him though, I thought they were both 20 ish and Lucas was 18.

I think I remember Irene being 50 a while ago, because she was going on about how old she was, and getting depressed.

Its nice that people who were 'born on the show' e.g. Martha, are now in it as characters. I didn't watch it in 1988, I thought Martha was just some unknown grand daughter of Alf! :lol: Because wasn't Ric an unknown grandchild of Alf? :unsure:

Yes, he was. Alf didn't know the Guv, his ex-girlfriend, had a son named Owen Dalby. The Guv told him a bit before she died. It turned out that Owen was a violent father. When he died, Alf wanted to create a bond with Ric, his grandson. Their relationship was a bit complicated at first but they got along afterwards.

Drew turned 18 recently.

^^The more I see of Drew back in school the more I get confused about his age. I know he's repeating and all but I remember that when he first came to the Bay he was 6 months away from turning 18 so that would mean he's around Ric's age now or 19 at least. :blink:
