Feckin feckers.
Was talking to a mate in NBrissy last night and she said the real Carl looks EXACTLY like the Tv carl, and alot of the characters look like who they are playing. ------------- The Honest Un PC Parent of 2, usually stuck in the naughty corner! :P |

Yep Annie, me and Emma have commented on that in our usual 9.30-10.30pm txting while the show is on. They did very good casting for Carl Williams. It has just finished in AUS - the other night I can't remember which one but I was talking to my mum and she said tehy were just sitting down to watch it. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Do you remember him (the actor) from Home & Away last year as Kit's boyfriend? So many old H&A actors in UnderBelly!
I did see a pic of the real Carl Williams and they are very similiar! ------------- Mum to Hayley **30.6.08

Guilty of thinking of Johnny Cooper too. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

I thought Johnny Cooper was hot, till they showed him shirtless in hospital and he has a hairy chest, sooooo not attractive!
What I really don't get is the casting of Lewis Moran - the freaky Whitcoulls guy that used to be in Neighbours? He does NOT make a good crim! He is too much of a dork. Apparently Carl Williams IRL is as much of a dopey dork as he is on the show, but he must have some brains in there under the dumb exterior, altho I reckon that tart of his, Roberta, has a lot to answer for coz she is really goading him on. Oh and Tony whatever his name is that's hiding out in Greece has lost his extradition case so is supposed to be being shipped back to Oz, but he's appealing. He's in jail in Greece tho. I am sooo going to stay up and watch it on principle, just to prove that putting it in a crap timeslot won't stop people watching it. ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Oh - that's where Lewis Moran looks familiar from! He so doesn't look like the head of a crime family. ------------- Mum to two wee boys |

Well all my good intentions went to waste! DH and I love this programme and are totally gutted TV3 moved it to such a stink timeslot! There was no way we were going to stay up to watch it so set up the ol' video and taped it... only thing is, the tape was too old and dodgy and we can't hear a thing and the pics are all wobbly 
Any chance some lovely person out there in Oh Baby land taped or DVD'd it and can lend it to us to watch?? I'll pay postage! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Yeah that would be good. I will do my best to try and watch them - might write a dirty email to TV3 about the stupid timeslot - but I think I will fall asleep towards the end. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
