[Abbie]

LOL that advert is sooo random and funny

[*-Rooney-*]

im glad the times are roughly the same also as there were rumours that it may be getting shown at 6.30 (same time 5 showed family affairs before it got axed) so glad that wasnt true as i watch hollyoaks then

[Abbie]

Well its pretty much on the same time it used to be on, so its not that bad

Neighbours will air at 5:30pm when it starts on Five on February 11.

Five's news bulletin will move 30 minutes earlier to 5pm to allow Neighbours to lead in to Home and Away at 6pm. A lunchtime Aussie block will also be created, with Neighbours airing at 1:45pm before Home and Away at 2:15.

Other scheduling plans confirmed today include a Neighbours omnibus starting at 12:30pm on Saturdays on Five and repeating on Five Life on Sundays.

The soap currently airs at 2:10pm and 5:35pm on BBC One.

UPDATE: We've since had it confirmed that, as on BBC One, the 1.45pm showing will be a new episode, with the 5.30pm episode a repeat. The show will be sponsored on Five by Weight Watchers.

Five has also scheduled a weekly Neighbours omnibus from 12.30pm on Saturdays.

A catch-up episode will also be shown twice daily on the broadcaster's digital channel Five Life, which will screen the omnibus on Sundays.

It is understood that the scheduling of Neighbours on Five's flagship channel has been designed to closely match the times that fans have become accustomed to after 21 years of it running on BBC1. Neighbours currently airs at 2.10pm and 5.35pm on BBC1 on weekdays.


I wonder what time the H&A repeat will be on a Saturday as it currently airs at 11.15am
