Has anyone heard anymore about it? I would love to see HAA from the begin or at least from about five years ago when it change from ITV to channel 5 we missed so much!

well the bit on " five's" website and the front page here refering to " life" showing classic h&a was removed pretty abruptly as that went to pot (typical) as for the downunder tv channel or whatever they heck they decided to call it in the end i have read the same all over the net the idea and concept never got past the drawing board i doubt it ever after what now 2? years of it being first mentioned it got passed the coffee and digestives at a meeting stage the plans never went anywhere !!!

i for one would love to see re runs last uk viewers got was on living these ended in 200 (3)?

I sent five a message (very sad I know) this was my reply

Thank you for your recent enquiry regarding Home and Away and please allow us to apologise for the delay in responding.

We have no plans to screen classic episodes of the programme on Five Life but you may be pleased to know that we plan to bring back the Home And Away Omnibus.

At this time we have no scheduling information about the new channels and recommend that you regularly check our listings, which are supplied to the national press.

It annoyed me so much uk gold (I think) show neighbours, EE, coronation street why not HAA as well?

Can’t sky do a soaps channel?

[victim-ofthenight]

Is not sad at all sending an email to find out facts shame it wasnt what we all wanted to hear.

gold show neighbours early hours and eastenders 8.25/ early hours but these 2 were cut down as once upon a time they were both shown 5 times a day

corrie was granada plus which became itv3

h&a was on living 1999?-2003 back to back with brookside and hasnt been shown in reapeat form since as you say surely some channel can pick it up it isnt as if it is unpopular.

i cant see why five cant re run it in the early hours like cell block sons and daughters and sunset beach were silly time of day but still available for people to record and / or collect

They'd lose money because they'd no longer be able to show "Phone-in TV"

[victim-ofthenight]

meant the original five Ryan not life yes 90% of channels do show that phone in rubbish everynight your hard pressed to find a channel thats doesnt they make excuses that it pays for quality programs but i dont buy this as this is only a new introuduction to channels in last couple of years they got by plenty before without it

five already have re run prisoner cell block h and sons and daughters in full and half the sunset beach series in the 5-6am slots why not h&a

[freakybuffy]

It’s got something to do with ITV still owing the rights for it, but I don’t understand why 5 can’t show episodes since HAA changed channel, I mean it must be a good 5 years of episodes. Apart from HAA, charmed and prison break all the other programmes are rubbish.

Why can’t we have something decent on TV for a change?

[Cat3]

Downunder tv have got the rights to show home and away from the start [ episode 1] But with the channel having problems over others rights like trying to get australians ad's and trying to get the money to start this channel going, this have now been going on for over two years now, all it needs is this channel to start for old episodes of home and away.

But it's just looks blank.
