I'm a couple of days behind as I have to wait for the episodes to come on to that episodes.all.at website.

I can't get a freeview signal on my freeview TV thing for the computer in this student place I'm now living at. Pity as well, it stopped working the day after I purchased a TV license.

BBC faces fight with Five for Neighbours
Dan Wootton
8:00am
Five is plotting a Ramsay Street raid by trying to snatch Australian soap Neighbours from the BBC after 20 years.

The contract for the BBC1 soap opera is understood to come up for renewal in the middle of next year, when there will be a short window for negotiation. Senior sources at Five indicated it was keen on the show. A deal would give it new episodes from 2008.

Neighbours is made by Grundy and distributed by Fremantle Media. Both companies are owned by RTL, which is also the parent company of Five.

It is believed Five would schedule the show at 6.30pm, where it has struggled to replace axed local soap Family Affairs. It would form an Australian soap zone with Home and Away.

Channel 4 and ITV have ruled out joining a bidding war for the show, but the BBC will have to tread carefully if Five forces up the price. The government white paper on Charter renewal said it should offer licence fee payers "something different from what is available to them from other sources" through its acquired content.

However, the corporation will not want to lose Neighbours, which anchors its early afternoon and evening line-up. This year the soap opera has averaged a share of 38.4% at 1.40pm and 20.2% at 5.35pm.

A BBC spokeswoman said it was "absolutely committed" to Neighbours, but refused to discuss contract details.

That would be spiggin' awful if that happened

[Quincy]

i would welcome it cos then i wouldnt miss it. ever

[Jimmy_Lemon]

it stopped working the day after I purchased a TV license.

Send you licence back and get a refund for what is left on it - its meant for moving house and stuff but should work for you,

[Adam]

Noooooooooo. I cant get Five TV - grrr.

[Sidders]

It would be rubbish.

[matt_32510]

I can't get five and I need to watch it at lunchtime as I work in the evening.

[Sidders]

I wouldn't cope with the adverts.

[Dimon Trowel]

I have no idea what anyone is talking about.

Is the toadfish still in it?

[Sidders]

Oh yes.

[David]

When the combination of Karl and the Toad have both left, I'm stopping watching as I feel as though that would be the time to stop....

Hopefully it'll never happen!

[Dimon Trowel]

Even though I haven't seen it in years I have to agree with you there.

Is that legend Harold still in it?

[Sidders]

Oh yes.

[Dimon Trowel]

I'll have to get back into it. Times people?

[fish heads]

Same as it ever was - 1:40 and 5:35, Monday to Friday

[Dimon Trowel]

Gotcha.

[Danz]

wasn't today's neighbours the funniest ever.

[GF05]

Susan getting from the bar to her house in seconds was great .

And they should have done that thing were we hear there thoughts when Sky told Lou she didn't know who the baby's father was. Hearing him call her a tramp would have been hilarious .

[fish heads]

So, who put Sky up the duff then? Stinger or Dilldog?

[David]

The same person that got Steve Irwin "up the duff" - someone said on this thread way back it was Stingray I seem to remember.

[Sidders]

But why is she assuming it can only be Dylan or JP? Doesn't she remember sleeping with Stinger?

[fish heads]

Nobody knows about that except her and Stinger. She probably doesn't want to complicate matters and she wants Dylan back so she's doing the easiest thing and denying in her mind probably

[David]

Plus if it was Stingrays, it would have a hint of Dylan in it's looks so he'd never question it. Stingray might though.

[SAV1OUR]

Its Sky dammit, fit as.

[Mafro]

I must be the only person on here that doesn't find her vaguely hot.
