Dan F Posted June 5, 2014 Report Posted June 5, 2014 A nice shiny new thread for the 1993 season which starts on 7TWO on Monday. It's a huge season for the show with arguably some of the most memorable and emotional episodes of all time. Below is a guide to when you can expect key episodes to air over the coming season (these dates presume that 7TWO will continue showing episodes over Christmas). There's also an in-depth preview for the year available on the main site - http://www.backtothebay.net/news/2014/06/06/early-years-1993.shtml1146 - Mon 9th Jun 2014 - 1993 Season Opener1147 - Tue 10th Jun 2014 - Lynne McGranger's first episode as Irene / Luke Cunningham's first episode1157 - Tue 24th Jun 2014 - Sarah Thompson's first episode1158 - Wed 25th Jun 2014 - Sophie's final episode1164 - Thu 3rd Jul 2014 - Karen Dean returns1176 - Mon 21st Jul 2014 - Pippa gives birth to Dale1178 - Wed 23rd Jul 2014 - Blake's final episode1202 - Tue 26th Aug 2014 - Angel's first episode1207 - Tue 2nd Sep 2014 - Irene returns to the city1222 - Tue 23rd Sep 2014 - Dale's death1230 - Fri 3rd Oct 2014 - Dale's funeral1251 - Mon 3rd Nov 2014 - The Summer Bay Musical1259 - Thu 13th Nov 2014 - Greg starts an affair with Fiona1273 - Tue 3rd Dec 2014 - Bobby tells Greg their marriage is over1295 - Fri 2nd Jan 2015 - Bobby & Greg reunite1298 - Wed 7th Jan 2015 - Bobby's accident1304 - Thu 15th Jan 2015 - Bobby's death1307 - Tue 20th Jan 2015 - Morag returns1309 - Thu 22nd Jan 2015 - Bobby's funeral1323 - Wed 11th Feb 2015 - Greg's final episode1339 - Thu 5th Mar 2015 - Irene returns to the bay permanently1346 - Mon 16th Mar 2015 - Nathan Roberts' first episode1348 - Wed 18th Mar 2015 - Morag leaves (final appearance for 8 years)1370 - Fri 17th Apr 2015 - James Healey's (Simon Baker) first episode1375 - Fri 24th Apr 2015 - 1993 Season finale - Shane confronts Angel about Dylan
j.laur5 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Does Irene make the 1993 credits? Irene must be the longest running guest to become a regular!
Dan F Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Posted June 6, 2014 Does Irene make the 1993 credits? Irene must be the longest running guest to become a regular! No she doesn't, but when she arrives as a regular it's only 7 weeks to the end of the season anyway, and of course there was another complete overhaul of the titles at the beginning of 1994.
beau_t Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Irene must be the longest running guest to become a regular! Quite possibly. I'm trying to think of other characters who made guest appearances for a long time before eventually becoming regular and the only other one I can think of is Peter Baker.
Blaxland 89 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 It was just under a year before Vinnie got to the credits but still not as long as Peter and Irene. Actually maybe you could say Colleen. What with her making guestie appearances through out 88 and 89. Then the one in 97. Return in 99, but not in credit until 2000. And then there Duncan, if you can include him.
Natasha Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Looking forward to this season! And there was a musical episode?? Don't remember this one, then again I was only Sally's age in 1993!
Dan F Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Posted June 6, 2014 Looking forward to this season! And there was a musical episode?? Don't remember this one, then again I was only Sally's age in 1993! Haha, not quite but that would make interesting viewing! It's just a performance that some characters take part in at the surf club. Bit more info on it in the article on the main site which might jog your memory. Though saying that a real life Home and Away Musical with some of the cast did make it's way to UK stages in 1989!
-Andrew- Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 An actual musical episode, with the characters singing would definitely be something haha! Though of all the non-US soaps, I think Home and Away used to be the only one with any chance of getting away with it! Especially back in the days of the orchestral underscores and zanier plots. When the repeats were first announced, I recall thinking 'how awesome would it be if they got all the way to 1993', never actually thinking it would happen! Massive thanks to SevenTwo!!
Jezz Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Fantastic to see that we've reached 1993 now. I never thought we'd get this far after the Early Years commenced in November 2009 as I thought in all honesty we'd be lucky just to get through 1988. This is a huge year for the show no doubt and this year probably marks an end of an era for the true 'Early Years' and a new era of the show begins which is the period of 1994 to 1997. I'm hanging out for 1995 as well, but anyway looking forward to these upcoming episodes nevertheless. Well done to Channel 7 for airing these episodes, it's been fantastic to relive these old episodes.
rachel1990 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 I have to agree with this season ending the early years with Bobby's death being the most obvious storyline that marks the end. Do we have an exact date of when Alisa cuts her awful hair at the moment.
