What about Toadie?

I missed the last episode this year. I was out doing something and I forgot to be at home at 6:30 (as well as forgetting to set the VCR) so I'm not sure exactly what happens but from what I've heard there is a hostage situation with people including Katya, Toadie & Steph (as well as the Kinski kids I think). They are being held by Katya's crazy friend.

Now, someone dies - and according to TV Week ("you never see it coming), but maybe I do see it coming. There's a picture of Bree in front of a coffin and she is apparently talking at the funeral so it must be someone related.

Although in my infamous Circle Of Toadie everyone in Ramsay Street is somehow related.

So, why would Toadie die? Surely he has a bright future in front of him?

Well - first off he's been kicked out of his home by the newbies and has been living in his office. The other two shareholders of his house (The House of Trouser) are living in the bush.

Love hasn't really come on the Toadie front of late either. It's not the first time that Toadie has gone after a married woman, but surely he should've learnt the last time! The last time he did that the family moved away. And now - his love of the married woman may be his kiss of death!

It will be sad if it is Toadie that dies as he was the real comedic element to Neighbours. He was the mainstay of Neighbours and truly will be missed by me and others.

But, if he doesn't die, I hope that he gets some decent storylines before his contact runs out.

UPDATE 31/12/06: I was watching the New Year's Eve fireworks on Ten and Toadie (!) was one of the people saying Happy New Year. Generally if a character dies then they won't do publicity afterwards. So I reckon it's now Katya (who wasn't having her contract renewed) - and it makes more sense. Either that or Zeke getting killed. Wouldn't mind less of the freak!
