Hi Edward
Here are Quickflix+ we absolutely love our soaps!
Whilst we’ve been blown away at EastEnders this week, we’ve been gutted at the changes made to Hollyoaks and Shortland Street.
As for Neighbours… We still haven’t forgiven Channel 5 for dropping it…
We would absolutely get behind Neighbours on Quickflix+ but it would have to be every single episode from the very beginning as well as 5 new episodes every week. 4 is never going to be enough. The problem is we are a small streamer starting out. We’d need a lot of Neighbours fans to get behind us before we even plucked up enough courage to approach Fremantle Media.
It’s not impossible, but it’s something we really do want to do.
We hope this answers your question.
So if you got a soap, like Neighbours, would you acquire past episodes too?
Past episodes would so have to be part of any deal we make for a soap.
What channel on Quickflix+ would it be on?
We would put it on either Life, Yoof or Fiction. We're not too sure yet. Most likely Fiction.
