[TV] Neighbours - RIP

[Is it PotG?]

Disastrous news for UK fans of this great TV treat, being axed from domestic telly channels.

Some great memories.

Yay

 

[Baker lite]

Terrible news. That plain Jane… she was a right Sawt..

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Who could forget the classic storyline of Julie Martin accusing the Chinese family of Barbecuing the dog. They don't make them like that anymore.

Is shocking that a show that wasn’t able to transition from the 20th Century to the 21st Century is still in production and being shown on UK channels.

Medical grounds ?

 

[Uncle C]

Its Crap

 

[franks brother]

EastEnders next please

 

[carlzeiss]

Stopped watching it a long time ago due to a lack of diversity in cast members so no loss

 

[B-right-on]

EastEnders next please

Pathological hatred of this pgm.

Then followed by cancellation of
Coronation Street
That Farm thingy (if it is still going)
The scouser one
Big Brother

None of them contribute to society positively in any way

 

[super-seagulls]

I didn’t realise it was still going.

 

[bluenitsuj]

I am sure both fans will be devastated

 

[bluenitsuj]

EastEnders next please

And all soaps
All reality bollocks

 

[Fat Boy Fat]

And all soaps
All reality bollocks

You do realise your TV has an off button? Failing that I am sure it has a remote, so you can turn it over to something less bollocks!

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

Back in the day you used to have to justify not watching Neighbours by replying “no, I watch Home And Away”

 

[Elbow750]

Pathological hatred of this pgm.

Then followed by cancellation of
Coronation Street
That Farm thingy (if it is still going)
The scouser one
Big Brother

None of them contribute to society positively in any way

I take issue with the Farm thingy. The Victorian and Edwardian Farm series were magnificent, some of the most enjoyable and educational TV going !!

It’s hard to believe people were inexplicably obsessed with this guff in the mid to late 80’s.
Launched a few high profile careers though. Russell Crowe, Guy Pierce, Kylie, Naomi Harris. And some also rans, Donovan, Craig McGlachlan.
