Thanks as always Pantherboy.
January is always the longest and coldest month for me. And with no H&A to watch - the wait will seem even longer.
Off topic..... its the same with 'A Place Called Home' - one of the finest drama in Australia for many years in my opinion. The wait for season 4 next year will be so excruciating.

Yes, Dazzle I really liked "An eye for an eye" on Presto. The big thing about it of course is that Heath & Bianca return. It goes for 1hr 6mins, so it is basically 3 episodes long (minus the adverts of course!!). Most people would have seen by now the summary of the show i.e. Gunno kidnaps baby Casey & demands money from Ricky to get him back. The girls (Ricky, Phoebe & Bianca) try to raise the money, while the boys (Heath, Ash & Kyle) go looking for Gunno up in the Blue Mountains (Blackheath). Irene, Kat & Nate are also seen in the show, but no Brax.
Although Ch7 has been heavily promoting this Presto episode as a great idea etc, there has been a huge online backlash from disgruntled H&A viewers about it only being on Presto/streaming TV & not on free-to-air (+ some people can't get Presto where they live etc). The marketing ploy/promotion for the show has been asking people to sign up to Presto for a free one mth trial. Even though you can then cancel after the one mth, this hasn't stopped people from venting their displeasure. Not sure whether they will eventually show it on Ch7 or release it on DVD etc, but you would think that it will eventually find its way online somewhere (if it hasn't already!!). I think I mentioned sometime ago that I had a 6 mths free trial of Presto on my Telsta T-Box, but that runout in Sept. I thought that it was over after that & I wouldn't get to see this H&A episode, but lo & behold, unbeknown to me, my Mrs has been paying the mthly fee since then, so I got to watch it. Bless her! Happy Days!
I wasn't able to record Presto of course, but I tried to take some notes while it was on (but my shorthand/memory, aren't the best!!), so I could possibly have a go at outlining details of what happened if people are interested?? (or would people rather wait & see it for themselves if they can??).

I'm glad you enjoyed An Eye for an Eye. What a nice surprise that your wife has secretly been paying for Presto.
I'm sure many people would enjoy reading an outline of the episode if you have the time to write it. I'll probably wait to see if Channel 5 shows it (the episode's already online but I'll wait and watch it legally if I have the opportunity to do so).
