[QUOTE="Canon, post: 242275, member: 109"] No, Martha's return hasn't been rooted in backstory at all which would be frustrating for anyone who was invested in the original characters. It plays into a long running problem with Roo, she could be anyone, she is Roo in name only. Martha's mental health is a plot point so that she doesn't have to commit to Summer Bay full time which allows Alf to come and go. This being the whole purpose of Martha, to allow Ray Meagher to cut down on filming. Still for me these characters in their current incarnation, in what Home & Away is now, have built a nice relationship and it is one of the better aspects of today's show. I don't think Martha's return was casual, it impacted Alf and Roo, but it was as fleeting as any story in the show is. [/QUOTE]
