Brilliant news. So happy about this. Looking forward to seeing some of the old episodes as well.

This is so weird. Surely they won't be able to reunite the cast? Won't the sets have been removed? I remember the owners of the houses on the news talking about how relieved they were that it was over!

I remember the owners of the houses on the news talking about how relieved they were that it was over! Maybe not all of the cast but I’d imagine a good majority would be happy to return if asked. Sets might be in storage so can easily be brought out and if there’s money involved I’m sure the home owners will be tempted (or if not, they could build sets, use new houses, old footage etc). I’m looking forward to seeing what they do 😊 |

I'm pretty sure Amazon will have no problem building a few new cheap sets, it's not like they're strapped for cash  |

Looking forward to this |

Dare I say, the cast of soaps don't always leave one and find themselves rolling in other acting work. I expect many will be keen to come back.
It is interesting that Amazon haven't announced what format the new version of the show will take. Is it going to continue in the daily format, or might they go for one longer episode a week, or turn this into drama seasons?

I suspect it'll follow the model of Judy Justice of multiple episodes a week. If I was being cynical, I suspect by cancelling the series, Fremantle were able to void any existing contracts so any new contracts will likely be less expensive. |

Do you not remember the looks of houses inside changing magically during a break pretty regualrly? How many times did the pub/shop/cafe/etc go through a refurb? |

It is interesting that Amazon haven't announced what format the new version of the show will take. Is it going to continue in the daily format, or might they go for one longer episode a week, or turn this into drama seasons? I was wondering this - the announcement says "new series" so this implies it will be different to the usual soaps, which are on regularly and open ended. A slightly different format, like a drama series, could make a nice change and enable them to run storylines differently to the past. Will be good to see which older episodes are put up for streaming too. |

I'd love to see some old Scott and Charlene episodes. |
