oh right yeh she said it was a bit of a drosshole. Last i heard she'd moved to Perth (is there actually anything in Perth? I thought it was in the middle of nowhere, somewhere)

Perth, thats the capital of Western Australia. Its just dust and heat. And Kangaroos.

Neighbours?!?! *shudder*. Another series that recycles the same old plot lines alongside bad acting, and needs to be axed. No offence intended, although for me as an Australian, it is not an accurate portrayal of every life. I imagine that the show is much more effective when seen overseas.

As for exports, what about all of the musicians and actors? We can't forget Dame Edna, can we possums?

Dame Edna ... I'd rather take Nicole Kidman, thank you very much.

well thats probably because edna is a man.

as for neighbors, no one actually beleives it, its just compulsive. I mean you watch it and someone just walks into someone elses house. If that was our neighbourhood my dad would be hammering them with a long bit of wood telling them to "get the hell out of our house!" but in TV land everyone lives out of each others places like a big comune.

Me and a few friends are really tempted to go down and do the Set tour and meet all our idols. I tell you, when i was a kid i used to fancy SO many girls from neighbours. I also wanna shake hands with Karl "Dr Love" Kennedy. My inebriated alter ego.


"Something wicked this way comes"

Dame Edna is a man? That's not true, that's impossible! Nooooo!!!

I have heard that Neighbours is addictive, but I saw a few episodes once and, well, those hackneyed plots drove me up the wall! It's SO predictable and melodramatic! Still, isn't that the attraction of modern drama?

Every time they think of a new idea, like "hmm, lets have her have a baby!" They drag it out over like 20 episodes!

Tell me about it! They also seem to have a set limit of three near-death experiences in which the whole cast gather around looking sad until the character in question comes out of their coma, etc.
