Not thought about these characters for years, it's funny how when I heard their 1st names I immediately knew their surnames! Makes you realise how long ago it was, not a mobile phone in sight all we had to do back then was playing out, and talking to people face to face lol 🤣
I do love the closing credits that contains detailed acknowledgements and cheeky advertising. 'We choose to fly' When this was aired in the UK, we never had this. Thanks for uploading these. I'm very fascinated by this and a huge fan of Neighbours overall.
I know, she's looking in the direction of No. 30 and would need eyes in the back of her head PLUS x-ray vision to see No.28 from there. Similarly, for years, No.26 was visible from the Kennedys' kitchen window even though you'd actually never be able to see it from that window.
@richardchristie3203 the irony of the entire spatial situation is that she gets shot through the window of No. 30 by a gun that actually was fired through the window of No. 30!! 😂

My how that intro brings back memories and the outro with the envelope in the background, people used to doubt me when I always said it was an envelope in the background.
How did Debbie come to the conclusion it was an accident? Surely Julie not screaming whilst falling most likely indicates that she fell on purpose? Most normal people would scream or at least make a noise if they accidentally fell.
As she was meant to be blind drunk, the intention was probably that she was almost too pissed to notice herself falling or passed out as she went over the edge.
@@stephenmcconnell1000she was saying things a suicidal person would say like everyone would be better off without her. That and her not screaming when falling would make me believe she jumped on purpose .

Wow the character of Karl is 100 miles now from what he was like back in the day. He was stern then. Then they transferred it all to his wife. An affair or two will do that i guess. Came to check out Brett, as he's returning for an episode and i didnt really remember him. I was watching back then but i was like 15. Was Paul around? This was after the plane crash right? And i remember Julie, did she ever get a different role afterwards on the show or im thinking of someone similar. I remember when Anne died. We all do. I remember being sad about Cody but it was so long ago. Skipped thru her.
You're thinking of "Eddie Buckingham" who implausibly followed Harold and Madge back from their holiday in England and was a totally one-dimensional character whose only purpose was to provide a token black face 😂 even the character's name was implausible; how do we make him sound English? I know, we'll name him after the Queen's London residence!! 😂
Gosh Neighbours back in the day was a beauty parade. Virtually all the young people were hot! Both sexes. It was a great advert for Australia haha. So glad for the new season as well.
Because you often get other people's mail when they deliver to the wrong address? Probably symbolised how you pop it in the right box because that's what good neighbours do.
@@MarilynVirginiaGroverOffical I hope so, the myriad connections with the ever changing relationships makes it confusing enough to know who is related to who without throwing another marriage into the mix!
They changed the story. Originally she meant to kill herself then they changed their minds because the Australian channel what showed Neighbours complained suicide was too dark a storyline for their channel.
They were very early 90’s that’s for sure. Around this time ‘Neighbours’ had lost most of it’s very popular characters and it was beginning to dwindle in the ratings. This was the first attempt at refreshing the show. Some new sets, new theme and titles and credits. That wasn’t the problem though. The theme tune melody was iconic and only needed a refresh, likewise the graphics. The Kennedy’s were an attempt to actually bring a whole new family dynamic in with this. The problem was the writing. Everybody was so goody two shoes. They needed a new Mrs Mangle busybody type and a new nasty Paul Robinson type. Those key character tenements that make soap dramas compelling viewing. What they ended up with was loads of stray teens moving in and out of one and others houses, often without on screen families. If you looked at the real houses from outside then the crappy sets that were supposed to be on the inside, the whole show just became disjointed and lost within itself. Afterwards, it only declined to the point where it ended. Hard to imagine that in the UK in 1988 upwards of 18 million viewers were watching it. By 1998 it was less than half that. By the time it was axed in 2022, it was barely able to manage 1 million. The final episode managed to pull in 3 million British viewers, more so to see Kylie and Jason’s (disappointing) return and all the publicity surrounding it. It’s going to be interesting how it fairs once transmissions begin on Freevee.
@@wishkid79 Brits don't like change, as evident in Coronation Street and EastEnders, which clings to its roots. In the 80s, Neighbours mastered the difficult task of capturing the hearts of British people. Had it adopted the same model as Coronation Street, keeping the likes of Jim, Madge, Mrs Mangel, Jane and Henry around forever and keeping the same format, Neighbours would probably still be pulling in millions of viewers today. Neighbours had a different system though. Every 6 years, it was like an entirely different show. Over the 6 years, it would gently change its target audience. It would start off as a family show with kids. The kids would grow up, they would be followed through high school, then they would become teenagers, have relationships, go to 'uni', get a job at the Coffee Shop etc. and then a massive revamp would clear everyone out and a new generation would begin. At the end of every generation, the show turns a bit silly and becomes a kind of big celebration of Neighbours as a whole, perhaps to justify a later revamp? As far as I can tell, the generations are 1985-1991, 1992-1996, 1997-2001, 2002-2006, 2007-2011, 2012-2016, 2017-2022
@@wishkid79those are extremely skewers numbers.

Helen really was the heart of this show, that kind of died when she died in the show and even sadder when Anne Haddy passed shorty after

Omg! I haven’t watched this show in over 20 years and yet I remember this like yesterday, and all these faces. 😮 I remember when the Kennedys arrived…

There's no way Cody would be able to see that angle of the Kennedy house by looking out that window.
