Sorry but I think Neighbours is well past its' sell by date. It's had a fantastic run, but it should now be seconded to the big soap bin in the sky!

Sorry I didn't mean my post to intermingle like it has. I merely intended it it say as follows:

My opinion only, but I do apologise for my posting getting entwined with the previous persons posting.

Maybe it will be better on ITV maybe they will repaet it. Also they might not edit so much.

A petition won't stop BBC from dropping Neighbours.
Freemantle media are simply asking for too much money for each episode, (around $25,000 extra) therefore the BBC are considering whether to drop it or not.
I hope it stays at the BBC though, although I think they need to follow in Network Ten (Australian channel which shows Neighbours) steps and advertise Neighbours with preview trailers...

I agree with what you say about Fremantle Media there Geo1. I know Neighbours still has a UK following - of sorts, but the Aussies think it's well and truly a 'sucked orange' and the only reason it's still around is coz of the Beeb. Can't see why ITV would want a Beeb cast off.

How would it be better on ITV Steadman?? Confused It would still be the same show, produced in Australia, the fact ITV utilise their airtime rather than the Been wouldn't alter the programme!

The bbc cut out bits they think should not be shown in the daytime. Maybe Itv have a differnt view on sensership. Or maybe show a late night repeat.

I assume you've never been to Australia then Aquamarine Star? Or if you have you didn't see Neighbours whilst you were there? Over there they put a couple of ad breaks during the show! You wouldn't have thought the programme long enough - but they do!

Perhaps that's a little harsh!! Big Grin I just feel it's had it's day. Brookside and Crossroads both ran for many years, but eventually we said goodbye to them, the same with Prisoner Cell Block H, Sons & Daughters, The Flying Doctors, The Young Doctors etc etc etc. Maybe there is room for some new blood now. The only way I can see Neighbours recovering itself is to bring back some well known names from other popular Aussie soaps. I know Rowena Wallace (Pat 'the rat' Hamilton from Sons & Daughters) joins the programme for a couple of months soon, but a couple of months here and there isn't enough. H&A succeeds because of well known faces like Ray Meagher and Cornelia Frances being regular fixtures, both have a huge acting history in Aus. Neighbours got a bit of a lift when they brought back Stefan Dennis as Paul Robinson, another Actor with aeons of Aussie acting experience. In recent times they've also had Anne Phelan (Myra Desmond from PCBH and Maggie Millar (Marie Winter from PCBH but again for short or medium term stints). Just my personal opinion.
