Neighbours

....

Yeah, but they'll run out of episodes quicker without the two week break... the BBC has to remain a little way behind Australia because of this, that's why they don't show it during Wimbledon but they do sometimes show it during holidays.

Yeah, kind of bizarre! Is that Sinitta as well?

No but dont forget the show takes a break in Oz every Christmas for quite a few weeks so ITV would stlll have to fit in a break somewhere. Unless it was off air for a long time leaving a big gap between the UK and Oz episodes like what happened with Home and Away.

They played the end credits without an announcer talking over them, quite strange to hear!

Bloody hell - what did we do to deserve that?

I noticed they did that the other week too. Its much better without announcers talking, we already know whats on next anyway!

And the BBC One ident (Hippos) before the program started was completely silent ... no music, no anno, nothing!

Very Strange!

Perhaps, for whatever reason, BBC1 had no announcer cover at the time.

Something very funny was going on that's for sure. It was great to hear the closing music, although there was a VERY VERY annoying graphic promoting something on CBBC that appeared before the end of Neighbours. I hope this isn't the shape of things to come from the BBC. I do NOT expect my licence fee to be spent on intrusive graphics over the programme - ECP's and announcements over credits are bloody annoying how it is.

Ah yes...I wasn't sure quite what your were on about but it's happened again tonight - namely, a large, intrusive, animated OSN promoting Shaun The Sheep a few minutes before the end of tonight's Neighbours.

WHEN WILL THE MARKETING PEOPLE LISTEN AND STOP THIS???

Sorry to re - mention this again (from Jan) ... but when will we see the episodes they filmed in London - it must be soon! Does anyone know an exact dates for them to be broadcast?

Thanks!
