May be something to do with it being on Cannel 5 now? I think GOLD get most of their stuff from the BBC but obviously they prob don't own the archive of Neighbours anymore.

I'm probably wrong though.

Re: gold

I doubt Five have the rights to the classic neighbours, I may be wrong though. I suspect it's just one of the casualties of the rebranding. Doctor Who used to be showed from the early 90s on UKGold as did Neighbours for years on end. Doctor Who got dropped and eventually went onto UKtvDrama that had suffered from channel drift and became what UKGold used to be like. Now that's been rebranded and it is gone. I suspect it is a similar sort of thing with neighbours. It may come back with a bit of channel drift.

Re: gold

If Neighbours or classic Doctor Who is going to appear anywhere it will be on Watch. (New Doctor Who and Torchwood have appeared there)

Re: gold

UKTV GOLD/ G.O.L.D had the rights to Neighbours up to episode 5330 (the last episode shown on the BBC) They cant show anything after that due to Five aquiring the rights, just as Five cant show any old episodes as the BBC own them.

As they have now re-branded as a comedy channel it's unlikely they'd want them.

These days, UKTV tends to use Dave is its repeats channel, however, it looks like they couldn't even if they wanted to.

Yes, but even after it was rebranded G.O.L.D they still showed the last of the BBC episodes.
