As we brace ourselves for the final ever week of Neighbours – starting July 25 – Channel 5 have revealed the schedules for the following week so we get a look at what’s replacing our regular trip to Erinsborough.
Home And Away will shift half an hour later to Neighbours’ former regular slot of 1.45pm.
In the 6pm Neighbours repeat slot, Channel 5 will now show Cash In the Attic. ‘Helping people find the hidden treasure in their home to sell at auction and make a dream come true,’ they say. The series, which is a revival of the original show that aired from 2002 to 2012, will be fronted by Jules Hudson and Chris Kamara.
No doubt there are people who can’t wait to see what Jules and Chris will discover in people’s attics, but for soap fans it’s not much of a consolation for losing a show that’s been part of our lives for 37 years.
Neighbours’ final week is set to be incredibly emotional, as a myriad of former stars line up to return. Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan will be back for one last time as Charlene and Scott, while Guy Pearce is also going to return as Mike Young.
The final episodes will centre on Toadie (Ryan Moloney) and Melanie Pearson as they prepare to get married in a ceremony that will bring together Ramsey Street faces from the past as well as current favourites.
Neighbours was cancelled earlier this year, with Channel 5 boss Ben Frow saying the decision was for purely business reasons. ‘I can better spend the Neighbours money on UK shows,’ he said.
