Here are the Nate and Aaron related spoilers for upcoming episodes (highlight below to read): Thursday 24th September 2015 – 7219: Aaron worries that his decision to announce his relationship with Nate has lost him clients. Meanwhile, during The Heat's latest performance, Josh is shocked when the police interrupt the strip show to search his belongings, and Paul is smug when the cops discover a quantity of illegal peptides in Josh's bag.
Wednesday 30th September 2015 – 7223: Aaron hopes to bond with Karl and Susan. However, his first official dinner at the Kennedy house as Nate's partner goes awry when Nate issues Karl and Susan with a list of strict rules about making conversation with Aaron.
Monday 5th October 2015 – 7226: Sheila urges Nate to make a relationship-damaging decision.
Tuesday 6th October 2015 – 7227: After suffering injuries during his arrest at a party, Aaron is determined to find and punish the person who put the cops onto him, but is shocked when he learns the person's identity.

Those spoilers about Steph are really intriguing. Her character is a massive part of the show’s history, so going in this direction is definitely going to be controversial. The show needs to handle this sensitively because there’s a lot of potential for a complex, dramatic and soapy story, but it could also go badly wrong.
Clearly, the show isn’t trying to form romance out of violence and the play fighting between Nate and Aaron was supposed to be funny and charming – which it was to an extent – but it was quite unnerving because it was somewhat reminiscent of when Nate lashed out at Chris after the tornado. I know that was over a year ago and a lot has changed since, but considering that Nate is still struggling with PTSD, it just didn’t sit comfortably with me. Though the conflict between Aaron’s job and his ‘relationship’ with Nate is an interesting one: Aaron flirting with customers, regardless of gender, is part of the service and if it boosts business then it can only be of a benefit. However, Nate’s already made it clear that he’s always been comfortable with his sexuality – as has Aaron – so Nate’s discomfort at seeing Aaron flirting with women is understandable. But would the fact that Aaron and Nate are dating actually help business? Anyway, if this past week has proven anything, it’s that Aaron and Nate’s ‘relationship’ has the potential to be an unpredictable, fun, soapy and entertaining story; and nobody can complain about that.

Thanks for the clip, kevvoi! Here are the Nate and Aaron related spoilers for upcoming episodes (highlight below to read): Wednesday 30th September 2015 – 7223: Nate and Aaron accept a dinner invitation from Susan and Karl, which quickly becomes awkward. Will this spell trouble for the new couple?
Monday 5th October 2015 – 7226: Sheila’s concern for Nate has disastrous consequences
Tuesday 6th October 2015 – 7227: Aaron discovers who tipped off the police.
Friday 9th October 2015- 7230: The Brennan boys play nanny.
Thursday 15th October 2015- 7234: Aaron’s attempt to make cash backfires
Friday 16th October 2015- 7235: Josh and Nate find dirt on Paul but will it be enough?
Spoilers courtesy of Soap Extra and Southern Cross Media
Nate’s scenes with Karl and Susan have always been awesome, regardless of whether it’s the serious PTSD stuff or the lighter filler-plot scenes. And it’s lovely that the characters usually learn some kind of life lesson through their interactions. It’s also good that Nate told Aaron about the coward-punching and that it’s not been brushed under the carpet a year after it happened, instead of just focusing on the peptides stuff.

Here are the Nate and Aaron spoilers for upcoming episodes (highlight below to read): Friday 9th October 2015- 7230: Mark, Aaron and Tyler sing Nell an unconventional lullaby to get her to fall asleep.
Thursday 15th October 2015- 7234: Aaron’s money-making idea backfires.
Friday 16th October 2015- 7235: Josh and Nate stumble upon incriminating information about Paul.
Spoilers courtesy of TV Week, Soap Extra, The Perfect Blend and TV Soap
I stumbled across some interesting information on Digital Spy from the show’s producer who admitted that Aaron was originally only intended to be a guest character – presumably as part of the child abuse storyline – but Matt’s performance convinced the producer to promote him to regular (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/s14/neighbours/news/a670959/neighbours-producer-jason-herbison-scrapped-a-revenge-storyline-for-amy.html#~ppGAmNg0M0du1U). Personally, I assumed he was always intended to be a regular, so that was a bit of a surprise. Although, it was pretty obvious in this week’s episode when Mark admitted that he wasn’t sure how long Aaron was going to be sticking around for. Actually, despite Matt not being the strongest actor (though this is his first proper acting gig, so he can only improve), he has taken to the role really naturally; he’s seemed really comfortable with the character since day one and has some great nuances to make the character his own, so Herbison made the right decision by keeping him on. Besides, someone’s suggested that the Nate/Aaron story has been more about developing Nate as a character than the actual romance itself, which is quite logical if you consider how Nate has changed over these past three months or so; the story has really brought out different sides to the character that the audience hadn’t seen until Aaron arrived.
Strangely enough, I assumed that the show insinuated that Nate and Aaron had already slept together in the most off-handed way possible a couple of weeks ago, but supposedly they hadn’t until the show not-so-subtly suggested otherwise this week. Though the fact that Aaron was ‘meeting’ Nate’s aunt and uncle really highlights the fact that the show hasn’t introduced Nate’s parents, which I really hope they do at some point.

Here are the Nate and Aaron related spoilers for upcoming episodes (highlight below to read): Thursday 15th October 2015- 7234: Aaron finds a new way to make money by setting up a coffee cart at the school.
Friday 16th October 2015- 7235: Aaron confronts Tyler with his suspicion that he’s trying to split up Mark and Paige, whilst Josh admits to Nate that he has Paul’s encrypted USB.
Thursday 22nd October 2015- 7239: Daniel is horrified to discover that the Sheriff's Office has shut down the Off Air bar until further notice. He's forced to confess to Nate that he's in arrears with the lease repayments for the bar equipment. Friday 23rd October 2015- 7240: Aaron gets a glimpse of Daniel’s latent bully, whilst Kyle reveals he and Nate saw Steph arguing with a woman on the day of the fire.
Spoilers courtesy of The Perfect Blend, TV Week and TV Soap.
I don’t blame Nate for his discomfort about Aaron’s job and wanting to keep a distance from his shows. It’s not that he’s forcing him to make a choice between the relationship and his job or disapproves of Aaron’s career, but that he doesn’t want to go along and watch him entertain other guys; he’s still being supportive even if he’s not going along to Aaron’s gigs and having it shoved in his face. Saying that, I’m glad it wasn’t Nate who called the police on Aaron, though it being Sheila was quite predictable.

I've dated a gogo dancer and a stripper before and I really enjoyed watching them perform. I know it was just work and they audience wasn't allowed to touch the plus most of the audience was male and she was a lesbian so it didn't bother me at all.
I think if Nate were more comfortable with himself and felt more secure with his sexuality and his relationship he'd probably have fun at Aaron's shows. But I guess we can only be where we are.

Even though Nate and Aaron seem out of place in the storyline about the school closure, I like how they’ve been used – especially Aaron taking advantage of it in order to try to make money. And although seeing Josh and Nate interacting is a bit unnerving considering where the characters were a year ago, it’s fun to see Nate doing something questionable again, even if his motivation for hacking Paul’s e-mails is weak.

Here are the Nate and Aaron related spoilers for upcoming episodes (highlight below to read): Monday 26th October 2015- 7241: Aaron is sympathetic when Daniel apologises for his bullish behaviour. But when Aaron discovers that Paul is the source of Daniel's recent behaviour, he plots to publicly expose Paul as a bully in the local newspaper.
Wednesday 28th October 2015- 7243: Aaron receives a risky proposition from Paul.
Monday 2nd November 2015- 7246: Mark compromises his principles to help Aaron.
Tuesday 3rd November 2015- 7247: The Brennan brothers are at odds.
Friday 6th November 2015- 7250: A call from Chris leads to a crisis of confidence for Nate. Apparently both James Mason (Chris) and Melissa Bell (Lucy) will be returning for guest appearances in this episode.I think if Nate were more comfortable with himself and felt more secure with his sexuality and his relationship he'd probably have fun at Aaron's shows. But I guess we can only be where we are. I don’t think it has much to do with Nate being insecure about his sexuality – maybe a bit to do with his relationship, because he and Aaron are so different – but I just don’t think it's his 'cup of tea'. Like, when Sheila suggested that Nate go to the circuit party and Nate replied ‘no thanks’, it seemed as though it was more to do with the circuit party not really being his scene, which is understandable considering the type of person Nate is; I can’t imagine him being all that enamoured by it really. Even though Aaron being attacked (sort of) is annoying, it’s interesting to consider that both of the times this has happened, it was a provoked attack. Unlike the attacks on Chris and Nate, Aaron has said/done something that’s caused someone to lash out (he really needs to think before he speaks) and it’s been quite enlightening in terms of getting more of an insight into Daniel.

Here are the Nate and Aaron spoilers for upcoming episodes (highlight below to read): Tuesday 3rd November 2015- 7247: Tyler is stunned that Mark wants to stop Aaron from confessing about the fire.
Friday 6th November 2015- 7250: After learning of ex-boyfriend Chris' commitment to his new baby with Lucy, Nate questions Aaron's relationship with him and wonders if they have a future together.
Thursday 12th November 2015- 7254: After learning that Paul received a dead rat at the penthouse, Aaron investigates.
Friday 13th November 2015- 7255: Nate runs a pool competition and ropes in Daniel, Shay and Kyle as contestants.
Monday 16th November 2015- 7256: Paul uses Aaron to do his dirty work.
Tuesday 17th November 2015- 7257: After Paul blackmails him into doing his dirty work for him, Aaron reluctantly complies with Paul's instructions - even though it means hurting an innocent victim.
Spoilers courtesy of TV Week and TV Soap.
This story about Paul and Aaron has lots of potential, even if the job offer came from nowhere: it’ll be interesting to see how Aaron copes working for the man that he publically shamed, and if he turns to ‘the dark side’ then that would be cool as well. It would be even better if Paul somehow already knew what Aaron had done, but was waiting to see whether or not he’d crack under the pressure of working for him.
Just a random thought: why are Nate, Sheila and Steph in a shot together in the opening titles (which strangely, haven't appeared in Australia yet)? Fair enough, Nate works with Sheila (though he should have been kept in the pool shot with the Brennan brothers) and they needed to fill the shot following Naomi’s departure, but poor Steph just looks superimposed and awkward in that shot.

Thanks for the video, kevvoi! Here are the Nate and Aaron (with a distinct lack of Nate) related spoilers for upcoming episodes (highlight below to read): Thursday 12th November 2015- 7254: Aaron makes a surprising discovery about Paul’s stalker.
Monday 16th November 2015- 7256: Aaron feels guilty about duping Paul.
Tuesday 17th November 2015- 7257: Aaron comes to a shocking realisation.
Tuesday 24th November 2015- 7262: Aaron is guilt-ridden over betraying an innocent victim to help Paul.
Spoilers courtesy of The Perfect Blend and Southern Cross Media.
So Aaron’s not so much Paul’s bodyguard but more of an assistant? That makes more sense than the bodyguard idea, I guess. I did feel sorry for Matt during that scene by the pool considering that it was filmed in the middle of winter and he was wet and shirtless in the freezing cold!
It was lovely to see Chris again; he’ll always be my favourite despite some dodgy writing for him over the years. I wonder if his ‘return’ was filmed before he left because he looks exactly the same as he did eight months ago despite the fact that the actor cut his hair short and grew a beard shortly after leaving the show, and also that there was no mention of anything that Amber went through recently what with going into labour during the fire and her baby still being in Hospital. Even funnier was the fact that his profile picture was a publicity shot from 2011, rather than something more up-to-date. Saying that, it was a nice touch that Chris and Amber were talking instead of Nate, Sheila or Kyle, especially considering that Amber’s just had her baby as well; it was quite a nice nod to the past (and also that the baby is named after Lucy’s mum).

Even though Nate and Aaron were playing supporting roles to Mark and Paige’s contrived one-episode drama, at least they’re entertaining whilst they’re doing it; some of their facial expressions were brilliant. And Aaron looks great in a suit, just pointing it out…
There are some really weird vibes between Steph and Belinda: surely the latter can’t be the person making Steph think she’s losing her mind, that would be too obvious. Whether we’re supposed to root for them as a couple is unclear because there’s been some quite menacing, almost abusive moments between them, but with Charlie returning they might end up making them a family unit; who knows?
