[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 353985, member: 23"] Well-spotted James. I noticed from his IMDb he'd also done[I] One Summer[/I] just before this. Aha - that's cleared it up for me. Thanks. I'd usually associate this kind of thing with the actress having a real-life reason for needing time off such as scheduling conflicts with another job. I wonder if this was the case with Susan Hanson or just a whim of the writers/producers? I think that's her, yes. And I think she's the same one who's just broken Sandy's heart at Christmas by deciding to fly to get married in Geneva (or was it China? It's certainly somewhere further afield than Malvern). Oh my. That sounds like something. Has a lot of this been wiped or did I blink and miss it? Benny's now appeared in the series, though has yet to arrive at the motel itself. His scenes have taken place in some kind of spinoff-within-the-series where he and Diane and her uncle and some manipulative-girl-after-Benny's-newfound-wealth (after he found his rich father who wanted nothing to do with him and paid him off) are living on a farm. He looks very familiar to me, but I'm not sure if that's because he's not unlike Seth from [I]Emmerdale Farm[/I] in appearance. Ah. That explains a dialogue at Meg's wedding reception (which was the first time Stephanie appeared according to the remaining episodes) where Meg asked if she should call her Harriet, and she gave a reply that implied she was embarrassed about the whole Harriet business. Wow - that was great. There's absolutely no ground CM hasn't covered, and I love that there's no end to their vintage pop culture knowledge (even if I respectfully disagree with them about homemade jam). Now I feel a 2-on-1 CD featuring the [I]Crossroads Wedding Party and Noele Gordon Sings[/I] is the one thing missing from the box set. That's good to know.
