Romeo Smith fan Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 Home and Away used to be the highest rated Aussie Soap during the late 1990s when it was on ITV I believe? It also used to get lots of coverage in the tv magazines etc. Its a shame that its on a smaller channel now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not true, Neighbours would have rated higher than Home and Away did in the Nineties. But H and A did do very well then . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexx Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Actually Home and Away won Best Overseas Drama in the soap awards in the UK during the 90's, a couple of times. Neighbours was more popular in the 80's, but during the 90's (1995/1996 especially) I think H&A was just as, if not more popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubyxfan Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 I watch british soaps sometimes when theres nothing else on, but im just not that into it I just think that British soaps are TOO unrealistic. Anyone watched Eastenders latley? A 18 year old boy got a 40 year old woman pregnant ?!? I dunno if its just me, but that really put me off it There was a time when they were pretty good, and they had amazing storylines but now.. I can definetley relate to the H&A storylines more, and in my opinion i think aussie actors are MUCHHH better than the brits &.. cuter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreetlike Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Can't bear British soaps, Eastenders is all doom and gloom and Coronation Street is just terrible. The others aren't really worth mentioning. I don't follow Neighbours, but would watch that over any British soap, and H&A is of course my favourite. I think other than me I only know 4 people that watch H&A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasingstarlight Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 I'm in the US, and I used to be addicted to Days of Our Lives, but eventually gave it up as it got ridiculously unrealistic, even more so than it already was. That's why I like H&A and Neighbours, yeah they're unrealistic, but not nearly as much as US soaps, or what I've seen of British ones. Plus I think the acting is a million times better than any in US soaps. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
