- Brett's hormones start playing up again, and he finds it hard to contain his desire for new neighbour Libby Kennedy. Debbie seeks help from her psychiatrist.
I had the biggest crush on Dan Falzon (Ric) back then. I’m surprised he didn’t go on to do more bigger things after he finished ‘Neighbours’.
Thank you for this full episode.
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
It really wasn't the shows fault. When actirs pass on their legacy is hard to fill, if not impossible
Malcom Kennedy aka Benji Mcnair is born in the UK London and Susan Kennedy aka Jackie Woodbourne is Irish. Majority of the older cast of niegbours are originally born in the Uk same with Mike young aka Guy Pearce born in the UK too ,Mrs Mangel aka Vivean Grey.
Jackie was born in Ireland but she was only little when she moved down under (about 3 I think)
The late Vivian Grey, who played Mrs Mangel was also British. Kylie Minogue is also half welsh on her mothers side.
And there were a lot more guest characters with strong British accents back then, also characters like Helen whose accent seems more like a British/Australian hybrid
I guess that's why it made sense for to pack Mal off to London when he left.
@Harry-fk5of Alot of Australians are of English and Irish decent many left the UK 🇬🇧 in.droves to Australia 🇦🇺 ten pound pommes.
Great episode! 👋
Anyone remember the English chef (I think he was mixed race) in a brief role?
There's no way Cody would be able to see that angle of the Kennedy house by looking out that window.
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.
@@stephenmcconnell1000 that's crazy!
@@stephenmcconnell1000 that used to irrationally make me uncomfortable
Don’t worry, she gets her just desserts for being so nosy in the end
I remember when I was a kid I wanted libbys hair it was really long I tried but only got to my shoulder 😢😂
My god this feels like a lifetime ago now
It was. Lol.
Approximately 29 years ago today.....damn 👴
When she was younger Jackie Woodbourne was hotness personified and beyond gorgeous!
Always had a soft spot for her.
I so had a crush on drew in neighbours omg miss those days of him being in this 😢
It was another 4yrs before he turned up.
This feels so homely ❤
Poor Brett and his crush on Libby.
Brett really Blewitt with Libby.
Cody ❤
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.
At the time they thought Phil had pushed her (and to be honest, it wouild've been justifiable homicide IMO, she was annoying)
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 .
@@startracker5895 she was feeling sorry for herself because she was pissed and stumbled over the edge as a result, lol. Let's not overanalyse throwaway fiction here 😂
@@stephenmcconnell1000 apparently it was supposed to be suicide but they changed their minds at the last minute. Which makes sense by the way Julie was behaving before she died.
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.
This was all before the plane crash. This was 1994 and the plane crash was 2005
I watched neighbours in 1997 but I ve never known that Helen has already been in 1994
Marnie Reece-Wilmore's acting is incredible.
All the Martins were so great. I need them back!!
Jesse!!
Libby was actually pretty cute before she hit the drugs.
Hello i subscribe your you tube channel are you doing any more Neighbours because im a biggest Neighbours fan ?

Vikka and Linda in the background x
Speed up the end credits by X2 you got a banging tune
Cody Willis looks like someone who listens to the Baby Animals.

Kym Valentine, what a beauty, then and now
What other shows has Philip been in?I have seen him before.
Libby😜
What relation was Phillip and the kids to the Robinson's?
Brent looks like Mike Myers
wtf?
@@smashingrickfanboy9457
Just my opinion
@@tombaycka true true.
Mike Myers the actor, he certainly does look like a younger version of him
never notice hoe much brunettes dyed there hair with highlights lol
I remember this,i liked the Keennedy's but couldn't stand Cody,she was always sulky and angry.
One of the weakest deaths
I remember this,did Julie fall on purpose or was it accidently?
Linny i5 the hottest totty in it. Lol.
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.
Yes, but it’s a reminder to all girls that nothing last forever
Susan is an absolute fox 30 years later.
Malcolmmmmmm 😜
Malcom Kennedy aka Benji Mcnair is English born in London UK 🇬🇧
Did anyone else get frustrated when the end titles run as they are off centre?
Phil Sticky Buns
Why is there a letter in the end credits when their fricking neighbours!
It was *your* invitation to join them, metaphorically speaking.
The episode was a post card from Australia to the UK
You're only just noticing it now? They had that envelope background for nearly 4 years!
Australians are same as English people judging neighbours when new face moves in always suspicious of someone different or newcomers ,most Australians are originally from England and Ireland invaders trace thier history back to the UK.
Awful acting at its very best
So shoddy graphics it did my head in why ruin the original
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.
The original was horrible lol. Grainy backdrop and a very old fashioned theme, it was clearly so outdated by the early 90s.
Literally cry more, the original came out in the mid 80s, this was almost 10 years later.
@@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. You're picking the highest rated individual episode of the 80s when in reality it generally got 5-7 million viewers per episode.
1 million UK viewers per episode for a daytime soap in 2022 *before* accounting for catch up and streaming is actually a really solid audience, we know full well why C5 tanked the show due to their shady dealings.
Neighbours theme tune, the most irritating song on the planet 🌎, the really annoying lyrics and tune, over the years of developed just more irritating.
