Charlotte King (Erika Heynatz)

[Dazzle]

I'm liking the sound of Charlotte and Hunter. It sounds like they're really going to stir things up for our Summer Bay residents. I think we're just about to meet Charlotte at UK pace.

I was thinking maybe Hunter is not really Zacs and maybe she's come up with this story to get Zac back..? But I dunno. Casting wise, wouldn't you cast someone who looked like baby daddy? Hunter doesn't look like Zac... Just a thought. ..

Yes, that is also quite a possibllity lellygurl. As the advert/clip says, she seems to have been plotting for a while to get Zac back - so it may well be she is using Hunter as leverage to get Zac "onboard". This would mean though that she has been lying to her own son for quite a while - he seems convinced Zac is his Dad, obviously based on what his Mum has told him (we have seen his temper on display, so what will he do if he finds out she has been lying to him for probably years?). This would also be a risky play for her to make as she must have realised that is was a possibility that Zac might want a paternity test done at some stage - speaking of which, now Leah has asked for such a test, if Charlotte knew he wasn't Zac's son, I would have thought she would have just refused outright, rather than getting written information on paternity tests (which Hunter finds!!). As she appears to have been in love with Zac all this time, another possibility might be that she has just hoped/assumed he was Zac's without really knowing for sure (& therefore wouldn't be concerned at a paternity test being done).

I agree about the casting, but I doubt they even think about things like that (Even though they obviously aren't identical twins, I don't think Evie & Oscar look much alike)

I would think it is a requirement if they deliberately turn up to get their man or woman back!

Well, an interesting development in last night's (Aust) episode (Thurs Aug 10) which may cast some doubt on the theory/rumour that Charlotte murders Denny, so :

SPOILER ALERT!!!!

Denny is introduced to Roo's new boyfriend, Dr James for the first time & she thinks that she has met him or knows him from somewhere before. He says they haven't met & he probably just has "one of those faces". Denny ponders it for a while & when she fronts him again, saying she is sure she knows him & starts asking him questions about where they could have met in the City, he shuts her down by quite sternly asking her to save them the aggravation by dropping it. Denny leaves (a bit miffed), & James then lies to Roo when she asks him what his "discussion" with Denny was about. He also gives Denny a "worried" type of look later on when she comes back to the Diner (but is only looking for Ash).

Is there something sinister in James' past that he thinks Denny might expose if she can remember where she knows him from? Is it enough for him to want to kill her so he won't be found out? Or maybe this is just a red herring, & whatever Denny might know about him is only a relatively smaller thing - but still might have implications for his relationship with Roo?? The plot thickens!

I've just watched that one too...he's obviously hiding something and Denny will surely remember where she knows him from sooner or later. I always thought he was a bit too "nice" but whether or not he'll kill her, I'm not sure...I'd still keep Charlotte or Hunter in the frame too.

Charlotte / Hunter: I'm thinking that she got so 'angry' because she never thought of the paternity test idea OR because Leah is getting involved.... know what I mean?

Denny / James : this is interesting. I can't pick it. I can't work out the connection between them. We don't know much about her history, so that doesn't help....

Charlotte's stalker
Just who is watching her?
Charlotte's life takes another dangerous turn when it's revealed she has a stalker!
Someone bangs on her door but when Charlotte (Erika Heynatz) answers it, she finds a nore with the ominous words, "I'm watching you." Creepy!
As the unknown person keeps watch on Charlotte's apartment, she continues to try to cover up Denny's (Jessica Grace Smith) murder by responding to Denny's Facecloud messages.
The high school teacher is cracking under the pressure of her heinous crime, having seen ghostly images of Denny in her mirror at home.
She continues to seek comfort in the arms of former fling Matt (Alec Snow).
He has no idea she accidentally killed Denny and buried her.
"Charlotte casts her spell on him again," Alec, 23, says. "He doesn't realise how much trouble she's in."
When a concerned Josh (Jackson Gallagher) goes to Charlotte and pleads for her to end things with Matt, she lashes out.
Desperate, Charlotte accuses Josh of having written the note.
Josh then goes to Matt to tell him what Charlotte said.
Matt, in a show of bravado, rushes to see Charlotte to find out what's going on.
"Matt feels obliged to help her out," Alec tells TV Week.
"He wants to help her and be that man who steps up and solves all her problems."
In truth, Matt is being drawn into Charlotte's web of lies.
Will he realises the danger he's in before it's too late?
Also, the next move by Charlotte's stalker is about to be seen!

I am still betting that her stalker will be the new shady/bad boy guest character of Trystan (Ben Mingay).
