After all these years it is such a shame.

It looks like Digital Spy have removed that article, but it was reported by The Daily Telegraph here.

7 are an incredibly ruthless, greedy business who want to keep the H&A brand to themselves yet do very little with it. An example being this website forced to remove all episodes from various eras of the show (which were enjoyed by many) and 7 using the same tired excuse that they can't release any episodes themselves because of 'contractual issues'.

The stupid thing is that whilst they do own the Home and Away brand and logo, they don't earn the words Home, And, and Away so as long as they don't use their font and call themselves Unofficial it shouldn't be a problem.

Maybe you could make that suggestion to tour guy  c120701? Sounds like a really good idea to get around the problem that network 7 has caused....

If you aren't going to do your own tours 7 then stop crapping on the little guy who wants to provide interesting tours to tourists.
