when is that aired in the UK?

It will be around late February, beginning March I think.

oh right cool :)

I'm downloading the episode now from Diwana, so I can watch it tomorrow morning or something .

Former Neighbours scriptwriter Susan Bower has been named as the Aussie soap's new executive producer.

 

Bower will take over from Ric Pellizzeri, who is bowing out after five years, when production resumes in the New Year.

 

Though the soap's recent revamp has failed to have the positive effect on Oz ratings that producers had hoped, Bower has insisted that she is confident about further changes which will be seen in 2008.

 

"I'm really excited to be working on an Australian icon," she revealed. "The talented people who have worked on the show for years have made significant changes which will bear fruit very soon."

 

"I have the greatest respect for serialised drama," Bower added. "I never call them soapies."

I can see Libby :o :wub:

I can see Libby :o :wub:

 

 

She'll be returning to UK screens very shortly. Seemingly as part of Susan's MS plot at first, though it eventually emerges that it has more to do with her relationship with Darren Stark than anything.

 

 

 

Having watched recent Aussie episodes, there really is such an improvement in quality between the show now and a year ago. Storylines that would have once been given 10 minutes are now been properly explored from all angles, with the reactions of EVRRY involved character being charted. The acting has improved a lot aswell. Aside from Dan O'Connor (Ned), there's not really one weak actor in the current cast. Even previously poor performers like Zeke, Elle and Carmella have come on in leaps and bounds.

LOVE the song that was performed in Charlie's Bar on today's episode...

 

Its called She Devil by Robyn Loau :wub:

today marks the end of an era. The last time neighbours will be shown on bbc1

The end of an era :( It's gonna be so weird watching it on Five. I'm glad they're keeping it at the same times though.

David Hoflin (Oliver Barnes) has quit the show. Eliza Taylor-Cotter (Janae) leaves in todays Aus episode

it'll be weird seeing it with adverts next week :(

 

I'm going to miss the last ever BBC one :cry: as I'm going out at 2

At last! A rubbish character leaving! (Oliver that is) as apposed to Janae, Frazer, Rosie and Harold who should all stay!

Oh and another character is rumoured to be returning.

 

 

apparently Lyn Scully will be back briefly for a month-apparently she comes back for Toadie and Steph's wedding and takes a liking to this 'new' Paul Robinson!

 

^ Ooh yeah I heard about that!

pepper leaves next week :cry: along with adam
