I find H&A is more watchable than a year ago. The old H&A seems to have returned.

No it has not improved. In fact I would say it has gotten worse.
I thought it would have gotten better with the Braxtons leaving. But with the arrival of the Morgan`s I can`t say I`m too impressed so far.
I watched some H&A eps from 1994 last night, and they were a lot better in my opinion.

I can't say I have watched enough to say either way. It was nice to have Morag back. The problem for me is, all the young characters seem the same.

I'm re watching early episodes online and its fantastic. Morag was superbitch and very much an 80s powerwoman!

I`m finding it difficult to concentrate watching H&A online while doing some knitting lately. And I just can`t think why.   |

Oh wow. How unfortunate.
I remember in the late 80`s or early 90`s they had Grant Mitchell as a teacher played by Neighbours Henry Ramsay character).
And in PCBH they had a teacher at the prison who did look like Fred West.

Surely Fred and Rose West made the News over in Australia? I mean UK producers wouldn't name a character Ted Bundy (yes i know Married with children did but that was deliberate) or Jeffrey Dahmer would they, despite not being Home grown serial killers?
Sometimes these things really are accidental though - i remember at a Buffy convention asking Joss Whedon whether they'd given Buffy the middle name of Anne as a joke given her surname was Summers. He replied no, just thought it was a nice traditional middle name 1hich lots of people have (indeed they do, my middle name is Anne) and why would it be a joke? We then had to explain that Ann Summers is a leading sex toy brand in the UK which he'd had no knowledge of.
Re the opening question, i actually think it has improved a lot. I like the Morgan's - all seem like quite good characters played by decent actors and although there is still a crime connection, it isn't as though they are habitual criminals who we are still meant to root for like the Braxtons and the Witness Protection is an interesting take on it - especially as they are so many years into it rather than still being in the adjustment stage.
I'm also looking forward to having Duncan back.
Their tendency to have people recover overnight from what should be life changing injuries or events grates though. Alf had his stroke what, 3 weeks ago? And he is completely fine from what i can make out.
