Re: Neighbours axed
and might the same happen to Home and Away if Channel 5 decides to drop this series as well?

Many of us watched them during our teenage years and people of a certain age might remember when Neighbours was only shown during the day and iirc it was Michael Grade's grand-daughter who suggested moving it to a tea time slot, which is what happened at the start of 1988 and it became a huge hit.
Incidentally, the first edition of Neighbours was shown on the day that the BBC launched its daytime television service - 27th October 1986.

Re: Neighbours axed
Let's admit it, everyone had a crush on a Neighbours or Home&Away star once in their lives.

If I recall correctly Neighbours used to be shown twice a day, once around lunchtime and then again at 5.30pm so you had two chances ot watch it.

The evening one was added once they realised how popular it was with children

Neighbours went out with a lunchtime broadcast and then a morning broadcast repeat the following day.[111] Michael Grade, the channel's then controller, was advised by his daughter to move the morning broadcast repeat to a late afternoon slot, as she and her friends kept missing it due to their being at school,[111] which took place from 4 January 1988.
