linrb62 By the 2nd episode the story & characters reminded me of the old TV soap Dynasty & the acting is pretty awful. Mauboy should stick to her POP music & altho she is only an average musician it is a heck of a lot better than her acting in this soap series. After the first few episodes the story is very predictable & it jumps back & forth between the dramas that each side of the family have in what I can only describe as chaotic. The producer should have been sacked for it. At first glance this looked like a very good Australian drama series but it has been spoiled by being so chaotic in it's presentation. The locations/backgrounds it set in it are really good & mostly original but the chaotic execution of the story & acting has let it down. The execution is very clumsy & I am surprised it has made it through all the episodes so far. But then TV ratings are over for the year & it fits well with all the old repeats we are currently seeing on Australian free TV. I would have given it a zero rating but it deserves 1 point for the beautiful settings that were used in it.
stevepat99 Nice tale of lost daughter found...or was she? Jessica Mauboy a well known, young Aussie singer does a credible job playing the part of Billie Carter a local bar room band-singer, along with her group and craggy dad Gus, the latter irritatingly played by David Field.Circumstances finds Billie fleeing to the city in the company of the 'hot' looking son of a wealthy hotel owner family. Billie is thought to be the lost daughter of the family's recently deceased father Jack Norton.The tale takes twists and turns involving love, greed, money and family back stabbing. There are also tearjerker moments involving love, devotion and friendship.Of course these days no such tale can be credible without an easily available DNA test to determine if Billie is the lost daughter. In the first instance the screenplay recognizes the need for a DNA test and then in the second instance creates an unforgivably huge plot hole.If Billie is anyone's secret daughter then she can not be the bio daughter of Gus, the man she's known as her dad since birth. Gus is a mostly good-natured serial liar. We have no idea if he is lying when he announces to Billie and the Nortons that he not her bio dad making way for her to be part of a very wealthy family (which Gus is salivating over). By the same token, when Billie learns that her own DNA material was never actually tested she and all others decide this somehow proves she is NOT Jack Norton's daughter. This is nonsensical since a 'non-test' proves nothing one way or the other. Again, she was never tested. The need for another correct DNA test is as essential now as it was in the first place yet everyone is suddenly plot hole blind to this. Not a single person suggests a new valid DNA test. Plot holes do not get bigger than this.Name for season 2: DNA Tells ALL!
