Homeandawayfan. Posted February 22, 2017 Report Posted February 22, 2017 One of my fave ones is where Del Boy in Only Fools and Horses says to Rodney "Its alright for some little dipstick to jolly it up down the pub then crawl out of bed when he hears the theme tune to Home And Away". From a 1991 episode. Back when H&A was huge in the UK. On the ITV Show Who Wants To Be A Millionaire a question came up about H&A and where it was set. The person in the hot seat said it is quality and Chris Tarrant said "Yeah right". Did EastEnders once mention H&A, I have watched for years but cannot remember exactly. Any other mentions of our beachside show in other TV shows?
Blaxland 89 Posted February 23, 2017 Report Posted February 23, 2017 Corrie and emmerdale have previously mentioned home and away. And birds of a feather
masterjai30 Posted February 23, 2017 Report Posted February 23, 2017 There was an episode of One Foot In The Grave where Victor's VCR was stolen.He gets a call from the robber who say's he needs the instruction manual because he doesn't like to miss Home And Away.
cal2003 Posted March 15, 2017 Report Posted March 15, 2017 In the 1st royle family Dave asks what you watching and Barbara says it's only home and away.
Homeandawayfan. Posted May 23, 2017 Author Report Posted May 23, 2017 On a TV show Nick Knowles asked "Ray Meagher played Harold Bishop in Home And Away" True or false? The answer was false obviously Nick then said "He played Alf Roberts in Home And Away". Nick pronounced Meagher phonetically (it is pronounced Marr) and Alf Roberts was actually Coronation Street. I can understand why he got mixed up as Alf Roberts and Alf Stewart from their 2 shows were both grocers, both big men and both grumpy.
ter06 Posted May 29, 2017 Report Posted May 29, 2017 Interesting it was mentioned on Emmerdale given Emily Symons played a big part in the Dales
CaptainHulk Posted May 31, 2017 Report Posted May 31, 2017 Brookside. Then again, they mentioned everything!
Homeandawayfan. Posted June 1, 2017 Author Report Posted June 1, 2017 Summer Bay must be twinned with Brookside as they both have high crime rates lol. I think H&A has also been noted in various quiz shows other than the Chris Tarrant and Nick Knowles mention. I think Eamonn Holmes has mentioned it. Robert Kilroy Silk even visited the old diner.

And both went a bit over top during later lifespans. Difference is, It's helped H&A in Australia and it killed Brookside. Sad thing is Brookie get better towards the end but the damage had been done and it seemed C4 were more interested in Hollyoaks (which had probably peaked at that point) and gave it that 5th weekly ep. And don't get me started with Kilroy. If he kept his mouth shut, he'd still have his show now!
