Greatest Hits Radio has teamed up with Amazon Freevee to share some of the most iconic Neighbours moments for your viewing pleasure! Who doesn’t remember being teary-eyed as Charlene married Scott Robinson in the best wedding of the 1980s or watched as ‘Plain Jane’ stole the heart of resident hunk, Mike Parker?!

And it wasn’t just the TV show that we loved, it was the music too! From the anthemic theme song and the aussie wedding march, Angry Anderson’s Suddenly, through to the chart domination of Kylie, Jason and Natalie Imbruglia we couldn’t get enough. And admit it, who doesn’t secretly love Stefan Dennis’ smash hit Don’t It Make You Feel Good……it made us feel good!

As we love Neighbours as much as you, ahead of the brand new series returning next month, we’ll be sharing some of the most iconic memories from our favourite Neighbours across our social platforms over the next few weeks so head there now to relive the magic. And let us know what your favourite classic Neighbours moment is and we could be choosing it next!

And if you head to Amazon Freevee right now, you can stream over 100 of the most iconic episodes, so get ready to spend some time on Ramsey Street ahead of the brand-new series returning on 18 September, only on Amazon Freevee! New episodes will be released daily at 7am BST from Monday to Thursday each week. The continuation of the long running series will pick up two years after the 2022 finale, watched by millions of adoring fans. Some of the most beloved characters are returning to Erinsborough including Karl and Susan Kennedy, Harold, Toadie, Jane, and everyone’s favourite bad boy Paul Robinson alongside an all-new cast which includes guest appearances from Mischa Barton, April Rose Pengilly and Guy Pearce.

We can’t wait!

Now take a look at TV shows we wish would make a comeback:

SM:TV Live

Our Saturday mornings were made better with three hours of sketches, competitions and cartoons brought to us by a fresh-faced Cat Deeley and Ant and Dec. Remember the "Chums" sketch? Or Wonky Donkey!

Gladiators

Watching pro athletes battle contestants in an epic 'survival of the fittest' was awesome TV. Plus with characters named like Wolf, Storm and Pather, how could it lose?

Footballers' Wives

Broadcasting between 2002-2006, Footballers' Wives followed fictional Premier League football club Earls Park, as well as all of the drama from both the players and their fiery wives!

Friends

It's the question we've all been asking for the last 10 years, but in 2020 all six members of the Friends cast reunited! Thankfully we will get a fresh take on the series soon as the main six cast members are reuniting for a one-off special to look back at the show, although it's been postponed due to the Coronavirus.

Bad Girls

Set inside a fictional women's prison, Bad Girls aired on ITV between 1996-2006 and featured some very famous faces, including Claire King and Debra Stephenson.

The Bill

First broadcast in 1983, police drama The Bill certainly proved popular, airing until 2010. The show focused on the lives and work of police officers and starred well-known actors such as Trudie Goodwin, Graham Cole and Mark Wingett.

Sabrina the Teenage Witch

She was confident, funny, magical AND she had a talking cat. Sabrina made us all want to be a witch!

Ugly Betty

Believe it or not, it's been a massive 10 years since Ugly Betty last aired on our screens! The show, which featured actress America Ferrera, followed a character called Betty Suarez, who despite her lack of 'style', landed a job at a very prestigious fashion magazine.

Where The Heart Is

The British drama, which was filmed in the Yorkshire town of Skelthwaite, proved very popular with viewers between 1997-2006, showcasing the lives of a group of district nurses and their families.

It's a Knockout

It was stupid, it was crazy, but it was certainly fun! It's a Knockout started way back in 1966, but the show made a number of returns on BBC, Channel 4 and Channel 5!

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

Although all episodes of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air are now on Netflix, we'd love to see Will Smith get back into his character alongside Carlton Banks.

Stars In Their Eyes

A true classic! Stars In Their Eyes, originally hosted by Leslie Crowther, first aired in 1990 with Matthew Kelly taking over in 1993. The show did make a return with Harry Hill in 2015, but it didn't quite take off!

The Queen's Nose

Who would have thought that rubbing a 50p coin would be so interesting? We used to love watching the adventures of Harmony as she used up her magic wishes.

Fun House

We used to love watching two schools battle each other in three rounds of madness. Bring back the gunge and Pat Sharp's crazy hairstyles!

Grange Hill

Despite being at school all day, we loved to come home and watch other people be at school. Strange. But gripping story lines and relatable characters had us glued to our screens.
