Posy Posted July 27, 2021 Report Posted July 27, 2021 But that link shows a triple episode which never happens in the UK. Surely this means 3 episodes, the last of which is on the Friday. Quote

Mon and Tues single eps and sometimes a double Wednesday then a triple on a Thursday. There was a year when the airings were very very random and all over the place. I think it was to do with a very late premiere in the year and they took a break for something. So I think it was just a lucky coincidence for sure. I think that's pretty much every year these days! But I think it was early enough that the cliffhanger might have been locked in for the end of a block, so Channel 7 had to make sure they broadcast the episode at the end of that week. 3 hours ago, Posy said: But that link shows a triple episode which never happens in the UK.

Given that Channel 5 is currently broadcasting the show in weeks of ***0-***4/***5-***9, that should be a Friday episode. Quote

Speaking of weekly blocs in the correct order how have we in the next week or so and for sure by the Olympic finale ended up back in sync weekly? I can't seem to figure out how. Quote
James Martin Posted July 28, 2021 Report Posted July 28, 2021 We haven't. We've been one episode out since the death of Prince Phillip. However, because the Olympic Cliffhanger was scheduled for a Thursday in Oz, it'll hit us on a Friday. Quote

So something has changed along the way. 1 minute ago, Bri1231 said: ?? But as of this week OZ Thursday episode is landing here on a Friday and Monday on a Monday.

Just always like to know Just like I will never figure out how RTE in Ireland who was a complete year ahead of ITV then ended up behind channel five ( due to a legal clause ) yet they never ever went off the air for the year that it was not broadcast in the UK. 1 Quote

It's just that Australia is even more out of synch than us, having been showing 6 episodes a week for most of the year (a triple bill on Monday or Thursday, with no episode on Friday). It just seems to be pure coincidence that the end of the pre-Olympic week is also the end of a week here. Quote

Because we are this week and next totally in the correct airing bloc then out of it again. Quote
