    Home and Away 2019 UK Christmas Break confirmed

    Digital Spy article:


    Home and Away confirms six-week Christmas break on Channel 5
    The soap will be off air in the UK from late next month.

    Home and Away will be taking a six-week break in the UK for the Christmas period.

    The Australian soap is going on a hiatus on Channel 5 starting late next month – with the last episode of 2019 airing on Friday, November 22. The first episode of 2020 has been scheduled for Monday, January 6 for UK viewers.

    There's no news for fans Down Under just yet. It airs on Channel 7 in Australia, but details of when the show will go off air there have still yet to be confirmed.

    Neighbours is airing all-year-round and over Christmas for the second year running, on Channel 5 in the UK and 10 Peach in Australia. A big part of that is down to Channel 5's multi-year broadcast deal with the Ramsay Street soap.

    By contrast, Home and Away traditionally airs 230 episodes in a year. As Channel 5 airs the show five times a week, this works out to 46 weeks – hence the need to take a six-week break.

    Meanwhile, Summer Bay fans will soon see Olivia Deeble's exit as Raffy Morrison.

    Raffy's exit storyline recently kicked off, as Deeble confirmed that she would be leaving after three years in the role.

    Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK) and Mondays to Thursdays at 7pm on Channel 7 (Australia).

    Whatsontv.co.uk article. A series of H&A Christmas specials are to air on Ch5 (My5) from Monday 25 Nov, with a new episode to be released every Monday. There is no word yet as to whether they will be released on 7Plus for Aust viewers.

    Deck the halls and hang the mistletoe! It's time to catch-up with your favourite stars of Home and Away in a series of Christmas specials!

    With Home and Away now on a six-week break until the New Year (the series returns to Channel 5 on Monday 6th January, check our TV Guide for full listings), don’t despair if you’re already missing the folks of Summer Bay.

    Home and Away: Christmas in Summer Bay is a five-part series, available exclusively on My5, presented by ex-Home and Away star Jason Smith (aka Robbie Hunter, he was on the series the same time as Chris Hemsworth!).

    In each episode, Jason will be visiting a different Summer Bay location to meet the cast of the long-running Aussie soap to find out behind-the-scenes secrets and take a trip down memory lane with some classic clips from the show’s almost 32 years on air.

    For any Australian viewers interested, the H&A: Christmas In Summer Bay (Episode 1) special is now up on 7Plus. I think they will release episodes each Tuesday.
