Well wishes from the cast of Eastenders. And a special appearance from a certain Dr!

Is that of all the UK?
I thought reports suggested it was rating closer to a million?
The ratings reported are usually the afternoon and evening rating added together. First screening has more viewers I believe. Last figures I saw were around 1.2m most days.
Yes national overnights

Really is so disrespectful. It’s a practice which should be banned.

It’s fair to say the cast and crew did themselves proud. Have to suspend disbelief for most of the returnee scenes, and Scott and Charlene (or more to the point, Jason Donovan and Charlene) was as underwhelming as I thought it would be and wasn’t really needed. Other touches were better - especially the final scene with the ghosts but also the Natalie Imbruglia and Holly Valance scene worked so well too. Of the 80s crew the Mike and Jane scenes worked by far the best - and plaudits to the editors for having a couple of scenes with them and Scott and Charlene without Guy Pearce being on the set the same day.
I agree, Jane and Mike were in the Ramsay house having moments and all I could see was a flapping helicopter animation for Hunted that was positioned perfectly over Jane’s hands. So distracting and unnecessary.

That’s live. The UK ratings are usually reported on a Monday to include the last 7 days viewing across all platforms. (They’ve always done this).
We won’t get official total Neighbours Finale figures until Monday 10 days away.

A one-off Neighbours themed Tourism Australia ad, co-produced by Fremantle, aired on Channel 5 UK on Friday night during the double episode finale broadcast.

Nicola Charles (who played Sarah Beaumont), has told the Herald Sun that just like Craig McLachlan, she’d been overlooked for the finale, saying “I’ve been cancelled because I’m unvaccinated.”
However, she said in the end she was glad Sarah was not part of the ‘shambles’ that was the last episode of Neighbours, saying there was zero suspension of disbelief, no attempt to round off storylines, or drag even theatre-school performances from the actors, Guy Pearce excepted.
Bitter and twisted nut bags.

Is it just me, or did Channel 5 show a different end screencap?
This is the screencap posted by TVCynic on Thursday night, with cast and crew:
Here is the end cap from Neighbours’ Twitter this morning, with cast only:
There were also complaints from some UK viewers that Channel 5 cut a couple of scenes from 10’s broadcast:

Very bitter response by her… she was only on the show for 2 years in the mid 90s.
There were lots of key characters that didn’t return for the send off. You just couldn’t have them all.

She does know it’s on in the UK right…?

If she’s on holidays she probably has better things to do that bunker down for a night of TV

I replied to Lynne when I saw her tweet yesterday morning, telling her that the finale would be on Friday night on Channel 5, and she liked my tweet.

The article mentions Stephanie Macintosh appearing as Sky Mangel. When did that happen?
