Foreign Exchange

- Season 1

(2004)

The old boiler in the cellar at O'Keefe's explodes, revealing the hidden diary of Aonghus O'Keefe.

Hannah portals from Ireland to get her first look at an Australian beach, but finds herself having to explain to Brett's mother why she is in Brett's bedroom at 7.00 in the morning.

Seamus the caretaker has a plumbing problem - an upstairs toilet is well and truly blocked with porridge. The pipes must be flushed but the porridge won't go down without a fight. Brett solves the problem with some Aussie ingenuity.

In the science lab at O'Keefe's, Hannah and Cormac discover the extraordinary magnetic powers of the portal key.

Asking a colourful Irish busker to pretend to be Hannah's father seemed like a good idea at the time. . . .

Brett and his new stepbrother Wayne can't seem to get on, so Craig suggests they go bush for a "bonding" camp.

Keeping the portal a secret has gotten Hannah into a lot of trouble - and now she is in Miss Murphy's sights.

Hannah goes to portal back to Ireland but the key is missing. Hannah is stranded in Australia until she and Brett can discover who took it.

Tara finds a photo of Brett and Hannah on a glorious beach and is convinced it is proof of their romance. To keep the photo a secret, Hannah is forced to become Tara's slave.

While preparing to be hostess of 'Founder's Day' at O'Keefe's college, Tara sneaks into town to buy a new dress. After all, one can't look one's best in a school uniform.

Brett falls off a ladder at O'Keefe's and knocks himself unconscious. He wakes up in hospital and makes the doctor think that he is concussed by insisting that he lives in Australia.

When Hannah discovers a silver candelabra from O'Keefe's in Brett's home, she can't believe that Brett is a thief.

Preparing a meal for Jackie and Craig for their 4-month wedding "anniversay" was Meredith's idea, so how did Brett end up doing the cooking?

Michael O'Connor claims to operate hotels all over the world including Galway, so when he asks Jackie and Craig to be partners in a new hotel in Perth, and offers Brett sponsorship for the World Surfing Classic, Brett is very excited.

Brett is pleased that Hannah has decided to learn to surf, unaware that it's only because she's got a crush on Paul, the handsome young surfer who runs the new surf clinic.

Tara catches Hannah sneaking out of the school at night and threatens to tell Miss Murphy unless Hannah agrees to take part in her "extreme make-over" assignment.

Tara smuggles her pet dog Pookie into the school but while hiding it from Seamus, Brett accidentally sends Pookie through the portal to Australia.

While Cormac is showing off his interplanetary exploration robot to Martin, the robot follows Hannah through the portal and sends back intriguing pictures.

When Craig tells Wayne to help Hannah take home some food, Hannah suddenly has to have a home in Australia to take it to.

When Cormac discovers an old chest of junk at O'Keefe's, Brett takes what he thinks is a worthless old tin soldier as a birthday present for Wayne.

When Miss Murphy asks about the hostel that Brett claims he is living in, Brett doesn't realise that she is looking for accommodation for her visiting mother.

The hot new book 'Prince of Roth' is being launched at midnight all over the world and no-one, not even Tara, can get an advance copy.

Tara sees Brett riding Seamus's old motorbike around the school and thinks he's cool. To prove that he's cool too, Martin takes the bike for a joy ride and crashes it.

When Meredith gets interested in Feng Shui, Craig decides that Brett's room needs renovating - and the first thing he'll fix is that ugly rock wall.

Aonghus O'Keefe, inventor of the portal and founder of the school, disappeared over 100 years ago and Hannah is keen to find out where he is buried.

The old boiler in the cellar at O'Keefe's explodes, revealing the hidden diary of Aonghus O'Keefe.
