The 2016 Olympic finale, flight crash, was broadcast here on a Friday. Totally in sync with OZ including the post Olympics premiere, Monday here in the UK and in OZ.

I think that wouldn't be a bad idea. They can then air a one hour news show at 5pm and begin primetime shows at 6pm without interruption. Probably name the 5pm broadcast first at five, Neighbours at 6pm followed by Home and Away at 6.30pm. Only issue there is then the show will go out directly against Hollyoaks. But in this day and age of on demand and PVRs does that make much of a difference? I never watch Home and Away at 6pm. I record it and watch at 7pm.

Very true. It does pull in the ratings and also it pays five more to air it there as there are two commercial breaks equals more bang for their buck. Haha, got one of those old CRT TVs up there with a coat hanger for an ariel?

Oh if only 5 star was in HD! I didn't even think about that, now they are in the correct airing blocks. Maybe it's more than possible they may want to keep it like that on 5 star now? I have to watch in HD though. So record a watch for me.

Maybe the might re sync during the Olympics break? I imagine the show will go off air in Australia for this so maybe Channel 5 may take the same opportunity and reduce episode numbers for 4 weeks to go back into the blocks and remain behind the Australian airings. To be fair Channel 7 have been out of sync for years now with their erratic schedule. For me it's not such an issue really as I tend to be at work when it airs for 3 days one week and 4 the next. So I always watch a double on Mondays then a triple on either Tuesdays or Thursdays which are my alternate week days off. So I will just make sure I keep them in sync via recordings.

Sunny 54 deg

100% agree. Don't want it to be a major storyline but they should at least acknowledge it right?

I have watched Home and Away from episode one and it still remains my favourite ever tv show. What do you think of the decision not to address covid19 on the show? Basically ever other tv show I watch have addressed this and continue to do so. I read that the producers said " Who wants to see covid on a beach"? Erm, me!! I think a show that wants to remain relevant does. I don't know how it will feel to watch future episodes so disconnected from the current worldwide pandemic. What are your thoughts on this?
