Channel 5 is now up to episode 6062, currently 20 episodes behind Australia, episode 6082 was aired earlier today.
One thing that rather irks me somewhat, in most episodes of Neighbours during the last year or so, is the frequent
use of Apple products. Almost every mobile phone seen on screen used by characters is an iPhone, almost every
laptop is either a MacBook Pro or MacBook Air ... the latter of which are flimsy disposable overpriced junk.
The only exception is Toadie who has a netbook running Windows, and he's supposed to be a professional lawyer.
You'd think someone in his line of work would use a decent full sized laptop, rather than a crappy slow netbook.
I watched episode 6080 a short while ago, shown in Aus on Friday, in which there was a scene in the General Store,
where Donna wanted to check something on the internet. Zeke was quick to help out, and handed her ... an iPad!
Either Apple are secretly sponsoring the show, or there's at least one Apple fanboi amongst the production staff!
