    • Trivia
      According to Rita's character profile on the official Westside (2015) website, she met Ted when she was 16. In Series 2 Episode 5, set in 1981, they celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary. This places her year of birth 36 years prior to 1981, in 1945. However, by Vern Gardiner's account to Loretta in Outrageous Fortune (2005), he was 14 and Rita was 18 when they first met, meaning she was 4 years older. Vern said he was 23 when he last saw her, which we see takes place in 1974 in Westside. This means Rita was 27 in 1974, placing her year of birth in or close to 1947.

    The best NZ/Australia series I've found.
    I like this so much. Near history, '79-87 from down under perspective and great ensemble characters (Rita and Ted particularly). Easy to enjoy but you might bring up subtitles because of accents. 3 seasons now on Prime, 3 more to come. Terrific use of regional pop music. I think its better than Outrageous Fortune.
