Neighbours

Also for Neighbours presentation fans. The BBC will be showing the full Australian closing credits (which run for over a minute) for Tuesday's episode, which features all the returning characters on the documentary.

Its good to see the BBC do that, though I think I see a cock up coming in that department. Hope I am wrong.

Yes, an excellent decision for once - the cast list for that episode goes on longer than the normal BBC credit duration anyway!! Nice to see a few crew who don't normally feature getting a name check over here too.

It's a good episode and nice to see some familiar faces from when I was more of an avid viewer.

There's a great scene coming up (Monday? maybe) featuring Toadie, Annalise and a former house-mate who's "so much like Connor it's almost like you wheeled him in as a replacement". Also features another BBC name-drop. Wonder if they're on commission?!

Brilliant! I request captures for Tuesday's episode, in case i don't see it. Thanks.

Whats the bet, the Beeb put a messy EPG and voiceover on the long credits?

Apparently BBC Breakfast are going to be on the set of Neighbours on Tuesday's programme from 8.30 onwards.

Well the credits in Australia were like THIS. So they can't really put an ECP over that or talk over them.

Brilliant! Some great faces in there. Isn't it funny how many of them haven't aged.

But the BBC will have to edit out the Mercure Hotel advert?

Is there much point in editing that out, since (AFAIK) no-one over here has even heard of Mercure Hotels?

I seem to remember from the credits in the 80s "Fiona Corke's wardrobe supplied by......"

Of course as indicated back then, sponsors were left back in.

I guess an advert is an advert though...

That leaves them with two options - either hold on the copyright caption for a bit longer or edit the music right at the end to sound more like the BBC cut.

You just know they're going to edit the music though.
