For full length credits with no voice over try Network two tonight, thou i think they have a voice over, but the repeat is tomorrow morning on RTE and it has full ozzie creidts and no voice over.


You can only get RTE in Ireland though can't you? I am in the UK and although I have Sky digital, it's not available on there either.

Neighbours, gets a new set of credits and slightly new on look appearance with split screen location shots. It looks pretty cool!

FFS, you would think marketing would have the sense to not ask for the credits to be squashed on both episodes! I know I always bang on about this but Neighbours is far far better than EastEnders at the moment and yet the BBC didn't trail the finale and now squash both sets of credits.

I think they're just embarresed at how successful Neighbours is at the moment and that EastEnders is flagging behind.

When is this happening?

Quite enjoyed tonights show, however would of liked Stuart and Sindi bumped off in that fire.. Its pretty silly to know in the next epidode that they are alive and well.

One problem that Neighbours has now is silly childish story-lines.

Still, in the days of the Waterhole, the front door use to be where behind the bar
is on Lou's Place. But the exterior shots of both places remained the same.


Actually, the front doors and the bar of Lou's Place (and The Waterhole before it) have always been in the same position.
When the pub was reopened after a gas explosion, the camera positions changed from one end of the pub to the other.

Yep, the "Waterhole", as it was known then, blew up in c.1993, in the days of Brad Willis and Annalise Hartman - in fact, I think those two were trapped in the pub (or maybe Brad and Beth? Can't quite remember!). So, they're basically ripping off the work of previous story writers, thinking that nobody would remember that far back. It's a shame really, but there's only so much you can do in a soap. Most of the original writing nowadays is a bit tacky. I've been an avid Neighbours viewer for many years, and continue to watch just out of habit, not merit. If I'd never seen it before, I certainly wouldn't stick with it now.

I've got an 80s/90s Neighbours Annual somewhere (don't ask!!) which shows Harold saving Des (or vice versa) from a flaming Waterhole ... still there's only so many things that can happen in one area!!

What a brilliant episode! I only saw the last 5 minutes and Max (?) being carried out into the ambulance and the spooky reappearance of Paul Robinson! He was one of my favourite characters from the early days! Smile

It is a shame the Beeb squashed and V/O'd the credits Rolling Eyes Would have been nice just to see the full theme.
