[QUOTE="Carrie Fairchild, post: 443557, member: 673"] There was the 5.10pm slot that prior to [I]Home & Away[/I], was the home of various gameshows. I’d imagine if [I]Richmond Hill [/I]hadn’t been axed so soon, ITV would’ve split the hour long episodes and stripped it 4-5 days a week in that timeslot. It also mentions on Wikipedia that the vacated 6.30pm [I]Crossroads[/I] slot could’ve been another option, but again that is just speculation. Both [I]Richmond Hill[/I] and [I]H&A[/I] premiered in January 1988 in Australia. I’d imagine ITV prioritised acquiring [I]RH[/I], given the [I]Neighbours[/I] connection. When that plan fell apart, [I]H&A[/I] was the Plan B. Given that [I]H&A[/I] didn’t start on ITV until January 1989, I’m guessing that they didn’t acquire it until late in 1988. [/QUOTE]
