John Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 I have Monday and Tuesdays Early Years episodes but this morning's ( Wednesday ) episode was not shown. I am miles behind with my Early Years watching. I'll try and catch up with the content of those episodes in the next couple of days.
CaptainHulk Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 1309 is the funeral, complete with flashbacks. Fortunately, I saw it a couple years ago when 5* aired a ton of eps from the show's 25yr period during Channel 5's Olympic break.
beau_t Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Perhaps we could email 7Two and ask them to put this week's episodes online as a special one-off favour considering they have messed them around so much. It's a reasonable request.
Dan F Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 With it seemingly not airing anywhere in the country, I really can't see any conceivable reason why they would skip episodes. They're the ones that control the playout, it's not like they're patching in to another feed that is continually running and can't be stopped. Nor is it likely that the tapes would self-destruct if not played on a specific day. If they did skip then it's just sheer incompetence. Hopefully it's just a case of the synopses in the TV guides not having been amended.

Old H&A Fan Posted January 21, 2015 Author Report Posted January 21, 2015 Dan F, if they do skip any episodes, I think we'd need to show them that we are serious, we mean business, and get a petition together to send them the message that people do watch their network and the old repeats on 7TWO are not old junk playing to a non-existent audience they can skip over whenever they feel the need to show endless amounts of sports coverage (in Seven's case, tennis) during the Great Christmas Summer Bludge time of the year.

beau_t Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 Has anybody contacted 7two regarding the missing episodes to make sure they get shown and not skipped?
Old H&A Fan Posted January 23, 2015 Author Report Posted January 23, 2015 Very good question BeauT. Urgent action is needed, as it has taken 22 years to get around to repeating these episodes and we are not likely to ever see these episodes again before we die, we are dealing with a 6000+ episode series that itself has been running for more than a quarter of a century, and I can't see Yahoo7 web streaming as an acceptable viable alternative (I notice they are showing episodes from the start on there). It is highly imperative that we do everything in our power to make sure there are no skipped episodes (especially the death/funeral of such an important Home And Away icon as Bobby). What's more, people who weren't even born when these episodes were originally broadcast, will never get to see these episodes if they are skipped. When contacting Channel Seven, make sure you get onto someone who is in charge of "programming" who has control of the playouts.
Matt Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 NEWS FOR ALL!!!!! (Sorry about Caps, just got really excited) On the Official TV Guide on Foxtel, Monday 26th January's episode summary reads: Adam bears the brunt of Summer Bay's fury for killing the town's favourite daughter. Fisher and Alf are shocked by the arrival of a surprise visitor. This is episode 1307! It is to air at 8:30 and subsequent episodes have been updated, so it looks like we won't skip any episodes! I apologise! It's set to air at 10am
