I have a question. Does anyone know the episode number of the commune fire. One of the classics aired here the other night and ended with Joey showing up at the infamous commune. Remember Saul tried to burn it down and take Selina with him? I just can't find that episode anywhere. Thanks

Closing

Those surreal for the time ( and maybe now too ) credits with the grey banners, wow they brought back memories. Best credits ever!! I wonder can we expect a change of credits in 2023 for the 35th anniversay? Well, what credits there are lol. I don't miss opening credits at all and tbh I wish they would just show them as they do in OZ. If they can supply those credits to NZ and other places, why not in the UK?

Yeah interestingly I can download the pilot onto my tablet via sky go. But not to the box. Weird. Thanks, will check now. Yup, that's working. Yay. Weird the pre 1990s won't download?

Still not working ??

I wonder what the issue is? So frustrating and good to know it's not just me either. I think I will email channel 5. I want to watch these. ?

Hey all. I have a question. For those of you in the UK that have Sky Q are you able to watch the Home and Away Classics? So far one episode has dropped, the two hour very first episode ever. It just will not download. Keep getting the failed, technical fault. So frustrating. I want to watch these.

Sunny. A chilly 47 degrees

You're welcome. I just had to know if the rumour was true and then share it with my home and away besties. I haven't seen the pilot for a very long time and looking forward to some eps from the 2000-2010 danger decade. ?

I agree. The landscape is changing radically and has been for a long time and shows / broadcasters need to adapt. ITVX will be the one to watch.

Cast and producers have helped pick the most memorable episodes including weddings, births, deaths and tragedies — such as the great storm and the 2002 epic bus crash. Yours sincerely Chris VIEWER ADVISOR There you are guys:) I can't wait........what a treat for us in the UK.

I have a sneaky suspicion that the show is going to go to My5 only. No linear broadcasts. Not too sure but it seems to be heading that way. And I hope not, because that's how they would get the show to sneak off into the night like Sam Holden on that boat!!

I will have a look. Oh I loved those classic episode days.

I guess they also need to take into account the on demand viewers. I can't be the only one who does that so I can watch it in HD. I wonder what the actual total numbers across the board is. Will have to do some digging.

https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/home-and-away/a41833995/home-and-away-break-2022/ Aaaaah, I was just about to post this. The Marylin/Heather story arc. Perfect cliffhanger.

Hey. Shouldn't be too long now. Whilst Channel 5 will for sure already know they usually release details first week of November. Let's see if my Marylin/Heather cliffhanger is the one.

Yeah I can totally see that. I watch the show as it airs in Australia though. So if they air a 90 minute episode for a big story, I will watch it like that,a mid season finale and the season finale etc it all ties in well for me. I just make sure I watch it as it's meant to be watched. Season finale / end of year wrap up storylines can appear to be very very drawn out in the UK. What should have wrapped up in November / early Decmember drags out onto the screen way into early / mid March here. I just don't get why Channel 5 doesn't air the show as it's intended to. Jan through November. Yeah complete

Isn't that the point of a cliffhanger though? I remember that episode very well and we all knew something was going to happen to the plane, via promos etc. So the plane takes off......what happens next = cliffhanger. No? Then again, I guess the missing on an Island cliffhanger had some of the story already played out right before the return premiere. So I see what you mean.

Let me know when you have a look please as again I was like, 5STAR HD!! So the regular channel has that noisy MPEG noise? Do you use the setting on the TV to reduce that? I had mine on but read somewhere to turn it off. So many settings on these TVs!!

Yeah I guess that's the case. I was very surprised to see the actual channel in HD as I have never seen it anywhere else. I agree, they should have taken a break until after the funeral. Just cleared the slate until then. I am currently five weeks behind ( UK airings ) so thankfully I usually wrap up mid December and then only have to wait about two weeks until it returns in January.

@1.17pm Sunny. Some clouds. 75 degrees ( 24 C )

To be honest with you as soon as Channel 5 dropped the 6pm airing, which I recorded from the very first day and watched later, as soon as they dropped that I moved to on demand only. I do get though that some people may not have the option to watch on demand/catch up so therefore in HD. So it can be a nuisance. I want my episodes in HD! Interestingly enough though, a friend of mine recently got sky glass. 5STARHD is an actual channel on there! Although presumably they can do that as it is streaming so not using digital airwaves?

@ 1.58pm heavy rain 71 degrees ( 21C )

@5.21pm Cloudy 72 degrees ( 22 c )
