Help Save Neighbours

Help Save Neighbours

The issue

The TV show "Neighbours" has touched my heart and many others in a way few others have. It has been a constant companion, almost like family. I've watched it almost all my life, and it deeply pains me to hear whispers of its impending cancellation. For me, and millions worldwide, 'Neighbours' isn't just a form of entertainment—it's a cherished tradition since 1985.

The show has not only offered substantial contributions to the entertainment industry, but it also has provided countless opportunities for new talent. Many famous actors, like Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan, got their start on 'Neighbours.' More than simply an industry, 'Neighbours' is a launching pad for aspiring young stars. The potential loss of this crucial platform is a disheartening thought.

Drawing from Broadcasters’ Audience Research Board (BARB) data, 'Neighbours' average daily views in the UK alone reaches an impressive mark of 1.5 million in 2020. Its cancellation would affect a significant number of viewers who looked forward to the daily broadcasts. For them, the programme is a lot more than just a show—it's their comfort zone, their connection with the broader global community.

We encourage everyone who has been touched by this monumental show to extend their support. Together, let's request the necessary stakeholders to reconsider the decision of cancellation. Let's ensure that this legendary show continues its run not only on our television screens but also in our hearts. Your signature can make a difference. Please sign this petition.
