So I thought about turning this series off more times than I can remember, but something (maybe the Sunday afternoon lull) compelled me to keep watching...

Jo Joyner carries this show, not sure why she felt the need to head across the pond but hey Ho a job is a job and whilst the acting at times is wooden by the cast, overall it's fairly watchable. Very typical of Australian soap, think neighbours/home and away. (Why is Australia filming always very grey?!)

Yes, I'm massively confused by why they chose an English mum and dad and an Australian actor for the daughter but i managed to overlook this and somewhat enjoy overall.

Okay, this is not acting at its finest but I thoroughly enjoyed watching this series for some light entertainment and the friends I spoke to enjoyed it to!! Sally Lindsay is always a fab watch and so is Neil Morrissey, if you're looking for a heavy weight drama go to BBC 1 or ITV.

The worse part of the series for me, was the casting and acting of the daughter's role. She had a slap-able face and her selfish, prat like demeanour had me shouting at the screen, so if that was the intention great, however, her acting was dreadful and I really didn't hear most of what she was saying!

Yes, I could guess the plot, yes, there were times I giggled, especially the hop-along scene, but overall this is an enjoyable watch and I would recommend to if your looking for something to binge.
