[QUOTE="ArchieLucasCarringtonEwing1989, post: 49818, member: 95"] And that's the other thing about The Colby's, and a Dynasty as a whole, the entire history and timeline are completely out of sync, Phillip was serving in the Vietnam war which was the 60s, yet Jeff who was born in 1956, implied that Phillip was declared dead before he was born, I don't think America was at war with any nation or faction in 1956, it was after the Korean War and years before the Vietnam war. I was confused with Phillip's backstory if I'm honest, but I'm also confused by the ages of Sable and Francesca, Sable is the oldest yet Katherine Ross is older than Stephanie Beacham by several years, By season 9 Sable's age is moved closer to that of Stephanie Beacham age at the time, pushing back the birth years of Miles and Monica from 1958 to at the latest 1963, I could live with this but Frankie was still younger than Sable by let's say two years, so Frankie was born in 1949 yet still able to get married, give birth and widowed by 1956, the year Jeff was born, it would've made more sense if Frankie was the eldest daughter born in 1940 or 1941, that way she could still get married and have Jeff in 1956, only just though. In that sense casting Kate O'Mara as the younger sister of Joan Collins was better as in real life JC was older than O'Mara. [/QUOTE]
