'Neighbours' in London

Quick question (May 2007)

I don't normally watch the programme, but I noticed they've got to the UK episodes shot last year.

Would a Aussie Tv crew done the UK filming themselves, or would one of Fremantle's UK outlets (eg Talkback Thames) done the filming on behalf of Grundy Tv, for union reasons maybe?

Aussie teams probably, as they would have been more familiar with how Neighbours is shot and exactly what they were aiming to film. So probably the staff would be from down under, but equipment would be from one of Fremantle's bases in London.

Hope this helps!!

On the Australian spoiler clips on youtube, the UK episodes got a special title sequence yet the BBC isn't showing it? Unless the title sequence i saw was a mock?

It was, The one on youtube was put together of all the UK clips and they made the titles.

I thought it was an actual sequence they made for these episodes. That would have been a good idea though.

If they didn't bring it over with them than it's likely that they would just hire the kit out in London. Production companies very rarely own their own kit, just like studios it is hired as and when it's needed

I just had a look, the user who uploaded the spoiler clips seems to have removed the spoilers now.

When were these episodes shot, because wasn't it last year 'Rogue Traders'(Natalie's band), were in the charts with their single 'Voodoo Child' & they did make an appearance on TOTP at the time?

I think it was late October / November the scenes were filmed.

It was around the time of the TV Awards.
