Sounds interesting. We don't get enough NZ stuff here, but I'm sure it's of an even poorer quality than Australian-made stuff.

I'd love to see some British soaps on FTA though.

spooky

I was just reading something about this program

Apparently you are correct it is from our cousins, but it has a couple of Australians in the cast

I really enjoy it as well !!

Presumably , it is being used as a non-ratings period filler and Ch 9 didn't think it would be popular ( hence the 10.30 slot )

I figure they want it finished before ratings start , so because it wasn't shown one night (  Boxing Day,  I think  ) they wanted two in one week to catch up

Shane Warne's tribute show presumably ran over time last Monday so the "extra" episode got bumped

Now the "catch-up" is scheduled for next week

Yet with a bit of promoting  ( Grant Bowler is known here for Blue Heelers , The Mole ( ? ) and other appearances ) it might have gained an audience

Yes Paula it is cheaply made , but there are some funny lines and situations -- did you watch from the series start or just last Tuesday ?

Grant Bowler is more well known now for being the face of Australias #1 show - Border Security which is on channel seven. As a result, theres no chance nine will be promotiong Grant Bowler - not in a long shot.

It is definately coming to Foxtel. Starting from the very beginning and running twice a week from the 9th of December I believe.

It's trashy, but I liked it. I'll be putting it on the planner Can't resist the 'bad guys going good' storyline!


This year there will be no ... withdrawal symptoms!

Channel 9 will be playing the remainder of season 1 (which they failed to do last year).

TEN however will continue playing the second season randomly on Fridays/Sundays.

Stupid Nine. I don't see why they'd even bother.
