Caps (via 7Plus) from Seven’s master copies of Blue Heelers from 1994 to 2006, showing various network logos / Southern Star logos / some other elements such as credits:
2004 two new cast in closing credits before being added to opening theme an episode later & brand new opening credits style following “station bombing” - new look for the series
BLOOPER! Seven must’ve forgotten to remove that off the 7plus version or the broadcast tape (akin to that Doctor Who Power Of The Daleks Promo’s discovery, read about it).
Should’ve mentioned, from Season 11 (season 12 on DVD) onwards, the DVDs used a home entertainment only/generic closing credits, with the translucent blue background showing various farm landscape footage (which is the background to the 2004 opening credits) and 2004 music theme.
Whereas for broadcast in 2005 and 2006 (as seen in Seven’s dirty masters in the caps above), Southern Cross provided Seven’s own presentation closing credits (those long running red ‘split screens’) to Seven instead.
Only in this case (as seen), they’re blank. That’s where prior to broadcast, the promo for next week would be inserted, which can be seen on YouTube.
