we can only hope that Coronation Street and Eastenders follow suit.

I could easily add lots more to that list, but there's probably a 10,000 character limit to forum posts :D

Wishful thinking, sadly.

Well I did learn one thing from that article, I never knew Margot Robbie was in it.

Loads have done well after Neighbours

Russel Crowe, Liam Hemsworth, Holly Valance, Delta Goodrum, Natalie Imbruglia, Luke Mitchell to name but a few and not including the obvious ones

A lot of soaps are like Mousetrap in that they keep going because they've been going so long. People still go to see Mousetrap because it's the longest running play in the world, everyone knows the murderer is .. put down that axe Agatha, and the gun, and the lead pipe ... <click>

It's not been axed, C5 have just withdrawn their funding. Probably going to spend it on Live Tiddlywinks.
I stopped watching when Bouncer the dog got the sack for taking an unnatural interest in Charlene.

Re: Neighbours axed
 

Without funding, its axed.

Its only hope is someone else funding it, and they have no one atm.

Used to love Neighbours and Home and Away when I was a kid.


Looking at it now though I cant believe how bad some of the acting is.


Still I guess Neighbours got me through my teenage years.




Nothing can be as bad as when they rebooted Crossroads in the early 2000's. That was terrible!

Re: Neighbours axed
 

I can see Eastenders ending, it's not the show it was that's for sure

Guy Pearce, the girl from The 100, Jason Donovan's Characters dad, that show has spawned some serious stars

Even the Australians stopped watching it a while back! If no U.K. channels pick it up, it’ll be gone by autumn.
