Amidst the ebb and flow of television’s tides, few shows have left a mark as lasting as the iconic Aussie soap opera, “Neighbours.” Just when we thought it was an end of an era for the beloved drama, a silver lining emerged. Prime Video and Amazon Freevee stepped in to revive the classic Aussie show.
And guess what? Our daily dose of Ramsay Street magic is coming back in September 2023. That’s not even a year after we bid it adieu. New episodes will premiere from Monday, September 18 at 4:30pm on Channel 10 and 6:30pm on 10 Peach and 10 Play. The revitalised series will also be available ad-free on Prime Video in Australia & New Zealand seven days following the free-to-air viewing of the new series.
