630si Posted January 21, 2006 Report Posted January 21, 2006 hi, im new here so ive been reading through the posts and i want to reply to a post i read on page 2. Neighbours is like more (aka watched more) because its on the bbc. Home and away is on a channel called Five which struggles to get 5% audience share in primetime. Home and away has become one of Five's most watched programmes pulling in 2million at just 6pm. The majority of neighbours viewers are in the early afternoon, less people watch the repeated version at 5.35pm. There was an article about this when the tennis was on because the bbc wer worried about a lot of neighbours fans missing an important episode because the ennis was on in the day. Give home and away credit for once, it manages 2 million viewers on britains smallest terrestrial channel. It used to get about 5 million when it was on itv! I dont want neighbours to be axed i like to listen to its theme tune. lol. people like it, its the only decent thing on at 1pm in the afternoon, and many like it, just as they do with home and away.
Lisa S Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 Here is a link to another thread on this forum that discusses the future of Neighbours. It also explains how Neighbours is paid for and by whom. http://www.backtothebay.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10845
Hellboy Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 Neighbours gets more viewers in the evening than it does in the afternoon, however it gets a more share of the viewers in the afternoon than it does in the evening. At one point, Neighbours combined viewing figures for the day was getting more than Eastenders!
Liz Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 neightbours should be axed How would you feel if H&A was axed? There are many people who enjoy Neighbours; don't you think that this is a rather selfish post?
Miss Home & Away Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 Neigbours has great potential I think the scriptwriters need to more with storylines and the characters,
Jennifer Lopez Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 Neighbours is way better than Home And Away. That's why it's on Channel 5! I mean Channel 5 has nakedness at like 7pm! It's the worst channel ever! That's why everyone takes the pi*s out of it there are like no good programmes on it.
Ryan Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 If you;re out in the Maldives and don't receive Five there, you'll be surprised to see how far it's come. I do however think that there was no need to change the Friday night schedules.
*dW* Posted February 6, 2006 Report Posted February 6, 2006 Neighbours is like a day to day soap about life in a street Which brings about 900,000 viewers a night Home and away is about little town around a beach. Where home and away brings in more then 1 million in the ratings. Everyone knows that neighbours is surving cause its huge in UK. Also neighbours goes for around 20 minutes and will never be 30 minutes as its produced for TEN and they are a commercial network and have to screen around 3 - 4 minutes of advertisements in the each of the four breaks they have.
Miss Home & Away Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 Neighbours should not be axed. I think the Australian Soaps are alot better than our English soaps.

It's probably the channel i watch most, unlike BBC1 on which i only watch Neighbours. (Although i do think it's been getting a bit dull lately. The storyline with the plane, the letter, the poison stuff, all done by H&A months ago) xxx
