Has anyone heard of this show? its on Monday night, 10.30pm on NINE. Just saw an advert for it. Looks interesting! If not a little B-Grade soapy. It also looks Australian.. but I am not sure it is. The other tv guide says its from "new zealand" but they had aussie accents.

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. |

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! |

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. |
