If they were willing they could easily clear a spot for classic Neighbours on the Peach schedule and I doubt people would miss the endless sitcom re-runs.

Just so people know they scheduled a 4th episode of Friends at 6:30 on Friday so that means 4 episodes of Friends will now air on Fridays. Like they really don’t care at Peach do they given how terrible that lineup has been for so long.
The lineup is pretty strong, does well in demos and consistent. It’s lazy programming though.
They air the same episodes of Friends and Big Bang twice since they proceed to re-air the same batch of episodes starting at 9. I hope when they re-branded to Peach things might get better but its just more of the same lazy scheduling that plagued 11 for years.
Almost all multi-channels are the same, just airing endless repeats of shows that were once popular and whatever dregs wouldn’t work on the main channel.

Well one day Melbourne has 50k and another 25k, Sydney 40k and 15k. If they all happen to be high together it adds up.
I know they all do it but there is just something about Peach in-particular that really bothers me, Perhaps its the constant Friends and Big Bang blocks they feel propelled to do.
Every episode of those two shows are available on Netflix, yet they still rate well.

Does anyone follow Nicola Charles who played Sarah Beaumont on Twitter? She’s turned into an absolute loonie. She’s created this “Charles in Charge” video blog. She’s absolutely lost the plot. No wonder the show doesn’t want/ refuses to have her back.
Her ultra-right-wing nonsense aside what point is there to her character coming back anyway, There surely isn’t more mileage in the Karl/Susan/Sarah triangle at this point they milked it dry in her 2013 and 2016 stints.

I just meant for a while there she was begging to return.
Anyways I’m sure her Twitter account will be blocked or banned soon. She’s posting very dangerous stuff on there.
I recall hearing she was begging to come back a few years back.
She posts a lot of anti-vax stuff on Twitter
Might be able to take her schtick to Sky
Shame Sky UK doesn’t seem to have a lineup of terrible right-wing nutjobs on a nightly basis. They could build a lineup of really terrible people for that.
Their faux equivalent in GB News might need one or a few of her kind.
This is a topic about Neighbours , not about someone’s political stance and whether you agree or disagree with it. Let’s get back to the actual show. Not attacking someone personally because it doesn’t match your type of political viewpoints .

It seemed as if I was mentioning the dissatisfaction with Neighbours ratings in the UK in my post, but I was referring to other poor performers like Home & Away that Neighbours may have to be moved to prop up ratings.
As far as I’m aware Neighbours is doing pretty good in the ratings in the UK so far, especially compared to certain UK soaps.
I’ve been really enjoying all the Nicolette build up and fall out. Her last episode was so good.
Nicolette gets quite a bit of hate online, but she’s a fantastically layered character and not so cookie cutter perfect like so many other characters. Easily my most favourite Neighbours character in a very long time. Hope she returns soon.
Not really looking forward to where this Amy plot of polyamory is going. I hope it doesn’t ruin her character because her being in a potential long term threesome is not something I want to see.
